Loews Super Surround Stereo

Background
Before it was rebranded as Sony Theatres, Loews Theatres commissioned a "Loews Super Surround Stereo" bumper to promote stereo sound in its' theatres.

(1990s-August 1994)


Logo: A red sphere is in the center of a rotating light blue O, similar to the start of the 1985 Loews Theatres opening. The screen and the sphere zoom away as the O becomes part of "SUPER SURROUND". Blue lasers form a blue/pink Loews logo above SUPER SURROUND, and "stereo" materializes below. The logo shines for several more seconds.

FX/SFX: Cel animation by Cinema Concepts.

Music/Sounds: A majestic synth fanfare.

Availability: Extinct. It was also spotted on a bootleg VHS of The Lion King, preceding a Columbia-TriStar Home Video logo.

Editor's Note: None.
