THX Theatre Alignment Program

Background
THX's division created in 1983 to ensure quality playback in theatres (specifically ones not THX-certified).

1st Logo (May 19-October 13, 1995)
Logo: On a black background, we see the text: "Quality assurance services for the release of [movie title] were provided by the THX Theatre Alignment Program. If you experience any conditions that detracted from the theatrical presentation of this film, please call". The THX logo appears next to the TAP logo, where "TAP" is enclosed in a circle saying "THEATRE ALIGNMENT PROGRAM". Under the THX/TAP logos is "1-800-PHONE-THX". (On Nine Months, it includes "or visit http://www.thx.com on the World Wide Web.")

FX/SFX: The credits scrolling.

Music/Sounds: Only the music remaining on the end credits.

Availability: Debuted on Die Hard with a Vengeance and seen on Nine Months and Strange Days. It appeared on Casper (text notification only) and Waterworld among other TAP titles, but prints might cut those out.

2nd Logo (February 9-November 22, 1996)
Logo: Same as the first logo, except the THX logo is in a black box and the text omits "for the release of [movie title]". Under the THX/TAP logo is the text "1-800-PHONE-THX or leave your comments at http://www.thx.com"

FX/SFX: None, except for the credits scrolling on Broken Arrow and Jingle All the Way.

Music/Sounds: Either the music remaining on the end credits or silence.

Availability: Common. Can be seen on Independence Day, Broken Arrow, Jingle All the Way, and Chain Reaction. It might've appeared on Apollo 13, but prints might remove it. The early/non-HD print of ID4 on TBS/TNT didn't have it as the credits were recreated, but all other prints preserve it, including the current TBS/TNT print with 20th Television's recreated credits.

3rd Logo (November 1-December 20, 1996)
Logo: On a black background, we see the text: "If you experienced any condition that detracted from the theatrical presentation of this film, please call 1-800-PHONE-THX or visit www.thx.com. Quality assurance services were provided by the THX Theatre Alignment Program." Under the text is the THX/TAP logo.

Variant: On Daylight, the THX/TAP logos are omitted.

Logo: Same as the '96-'97 version, except that the font and THX/TAP logos are different.
