'''Visuals:''' | '''Visuals:''' The sequence starts with a black screen before the following white text fades in: <center>{{big|{{Font|Arial|'''For the past 35 years, <br>motion picture loudspeaker</br> systems have not changed...'''}}}}</center> Later it fades out, and more white text appears reading: <center>{{big|{{Font|Arial|'''Lucasfilm Ltd. and this theatre <br>are pleased to introduce a new</br> motion picture sound system.'''}}}}</center> That text fades out, and after a few seconds, the letters "THX", underlined and which have the slightly taller "T" stem extend over the other two letters, appear in a glassy {{color|#70b1d6|sky blue}} color. "{{color|#70b1d6|THX}}" has a shining effect that stays still throughout the duration of the trailer. Above the logo is "{{color|#70b1d6|LUCASFILM LTD}}", and "{{color|#70b1d6|SOUND SYSTEM}}" below, both in small, spaced-out text. The logo stays on screen for about 10 seconds, then slowly fades out with the text above and below the logo. | ||
'''Trivia:''' The names for some of the early THX trailers given by Lucasfilm derive from the earliest Oscar-winning pictures, like ''Wings'', ''Cavalcade'', and ''Cimarron''. | '''Trivia:''' The names for some of the early THX trailers given by Lucasfilm derive from the earliest Oscar-winning pictures, like ''Wings'', ''Cavalcade'', and ''Cimarron''. | ||
