The Quiz: The trademarked “THX Deep Note” is named after a film by what director?
Steven Spielberg
George Lucas
Martin Scorsese
Stanley Kubrick
First premiering in 1983 at the beginning of “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi,” the “THX Deep Note” starts off at a low rumble and slowly crescendos into an ear-deafening display of audio power. The sound is the trademark of THX Ltd., an audio/visual company founded by George Lucas, which is itself a reference to the director’s first film, “THX 1138” (1971), starring Robert Duvall.
The correct answer to this quiz is George Lucas.
