Back in my days of working at the multiplex, Lucasfilm's THX sound-system standard was still something of a novelty, at least in these parts, and to a bunch of teenaged and early-20s ushers, it was a Very Big Deal indeed. We were proud of the fact that our theater -- Cinemark's Sandy Movies 7, later called Movies 9 -- was the first in the state to earn that coveted certification. I remember many debates about which of THX's iconic trailers was coolest -- I've always preferred the basic "Broadway" one, although the recent "Moo-Can" trailer amuses me -- but I think this one probably has them all beat:
It's kind of a creepy little animal, actually... what the hell is it? Anyone?
Looks like it could be a tarsier but I could be wrong.
Dang I keep watching it. The more I watch it, the more I laugh each time.
It's the eyes... they're hypnotizing you!
I remember feeling that way the first time I heard / saw the THX trailer. Guess I've never looked into anyone's eyes while it was playing ;)
