THX Tex 2: Moo Can (1997) Separate Channels

This video shows the discrete channels of one of THX's most memorable trailers with their mascot, Tex, known as Moo Can, which was originally released on Thanksgiving weekend of 1997. This was requested by TheVideoLover3. Update: 3/28/21
About a week ago on March 21st, 8 days after this video was uploaded, someone else uploaded it on their channel with their own name for it without giving Christian or me credit/asking permission. From this point onwards, if Christian gives me permission to post one of his videos, there will be a disclaimer saying if it has copyrighted material, we do not own the rights to it. It will also state that no one else is allowed to re-upload one of my or Christian's videos without permission. Doing so, even if we say no, will cause me to report one of the videos that were stolen. I hope you understand.

I know it may seem unusual for somebody like me to ask this, but who exactly does Tex's voice? Some sources say John Lasseter did it, since he created Tex, but my friend isn't entirely sure if that's true. Maybe Gary Rydstrom did it, but that's just speculation. If anybody knows who really did the voice of Tex, let me and Christian know. If you want, you can even take a listen to the center channel.

With headphones this sounds amazing!

[@CJBStudios]

I agree! Honestly I could’ve done much better though since these were just recorded on my phone. I’m still glad you like it.

[@CJBStudios]

I still can’t believe this is the most popular video on this channel. I was not expecting it to be this big, even at the time when I made it only 9 days before it was uploaded. I still appreciate all the attention it’s been getting.

I have seen this in Cats Don't Dance (1997), Finding Nemo (2003), Finding Dory (2016), Winnie the Pooh: Seasons of Giving (1999), The Tigger Movie (2000), Winnie the Pooh: Springtime With Roo (2004), and Pooh's Heffalump Movie (2005).

This is amazing!

[@CJBStudios]

Thx, pun intended! I can actually imagine you doing this trailer in separate channels with the layout design you made. It would be exactly like this one, only slightly redesigned and where the audio is in much better quality.

I first saw this on the VHS of Monsters, Inc. when I was little. I was at my Aunt Kristi's old house that day (the one that she lived in before she moved to Canby, Oregon. She no longer lives in Canby).

This trailer was also used for Monster the company who made HDMI and RCA cords but they originally did Beats before Apple bought the brand

[@missangelpirateprincesspea7263]

Tex flies towards the audience showing a cow can on his hand, which sounds odd. Tex shrugs, then flies around over to the X, and he opens a door to find a cable which he then plugs into the cow can. The audience can then hear some cows mooing, with the THX lifting into the air (Tex looks behind him staring at the logo), the words LUCASFILM LTD on the top appearing, and the background turning blue (Tex happily shows the audience the THX logo, and nods his head "yes"). Then the THX Logo starts shaking like crazy, because some cows are about to stampede towards the screen, but before they can, Tex freaks out, and flies away, quickly disconnecting the cow can from the logo, and the slogan "The best sound, the best picture, you're watching a THX certified feature." drops down. ©2000 Lucasfilm Ltd. & TM.

when i see this logo in my room, i think all i can hear are the front left front right and center speakers because i don't have surround sound so... it's still cool

@@danielslade9485 So would this mean John Lasseter also provided the voice of Tex? Because it doesn't really sound like John is doing it.

@@hanleiaoldestson7550 Apparently so...

[@hanleiaoldestson7550]

@@danielslade9485 Now that I say that, maybe John did voice Tex. If you listen to him saying "Uh-oh." in Tex 3: Action, it kind of sounds like John said it, maybe with some effects added to the voice. If only Pixar had some behind the scenes footage of how the first 3 Tex trailers were made.

[@Emersenwhite]

How did you get the channels?

[@hanleiaoldestson7550]

My friend recorded them in GarageBand for iOS and synced them together by using the real trailer’s audio track as a reference. The subwoofer was usually the last thing he’d record.
