'''Availability:''' Was used as an alternate IMAX trailer in tandem with the 3rd and 6th logos, serving as a more technical trailer compared to the more aggressive nature of those two trailers. This trailer's objective was eventually replaced with the 7th logo, but was retained in Brazil as late as 2019. Although this trailer was retired in 2015 for the 7th logo instead, some theaters still retain this trailer, such as the IMAX Theater at the Tropicana in Atlantic City, NJ. | '''Availability:''' Was used as an alternate IMAX trailer in tandem with the 3rd and 6th logos, serving as a more technical trailer compared to the more aggressive nature of those two trailers.
