FYI for those that want to learn something today. The “THX sound” is called “Deep Note”, and it looks insane when written.
Can you hear this?
Only the first time. Lost hearing after that
THE AUDIENCE IS NOW DEAF
Stay Tuned (1992)
My favorite gag from that:
“Where have you been??”
RIP John Ritter.
Brown note
Dammit who shit my pants?
I have my home theater programmed to play an a capella version of the thx sound at startup. By default that’s what I now think about when I see this.
As a kid, I thought this was meant to test your sound system for the movie (aka lone CRT) and would blast it as loud as I could.
One of my favorite songs is The Stage, by Avenged Sevenfold, and I honestly think the THX sound has a large port of it. First 30 seconds are basically just a solid THX sound… huge nostalgia hit hight out the gate. The rest of the song is fucking epic on its own, but that first bite is just… chef’s kiss
