Steven Rood: I wonder if your quest for any trailer wouldn't possibly be better answered at this site's sister site: www.film-tech.com ? I don't know exactly where you would look on that vast site, but maybe they will let you register there so that you can ask all their guys. Be sure that you make it clear how much you are willing to PAY anyone for their search and copying efforts-- if you REALLY want a copy. Best Wishes.

Man, oh man! Seeing that GCC trailer takes me back to 1976 watching "Car Wash" and Disney movies at the Northland Cinema in St. Louis! Thanks for the memories!

That video was great. Thanks.

Mark Campbell, i believe, had actually sent me the audio of the file and a still shot of the blue background image. So with the video from Brad, i'm very happy.

Thanks.

Wow...that may be the first time I've seen that since the Summer of 1984, when my mom took me to see The Jungle Book at Valley View 1&2 (I think...might have been Richardson Square 1-3). The next time I went to a GCC, they had changed it, much to my disappointment, since I liked the rotating circles.

Another from the 80's on FilmTech (along with the kaleidascope one we have all seen):

Look under "Videos" if it is not in the recent warehouse additions any longer.

Did they go from the kaleidoscope to the somewhat better-edited moving blue background one (no car honks in the moving blue one, and the beams of light fading to reveal the words looks better than the constant stream of words and dots coming out of the projector), or did they use them simultaneously? And, if they did replace one with the other, when did they do that? I'm wondering if the moving blue one was the one I saw at that 1984 screening of The Jungle Book.

I think the order is:

Plain blue one (on Youtube link above) Followed by...

Purple Kaliedascope. Followed by...

Blue with animated beams creating words (Film Tech link above). Followed by...

Clouds turning into starfield (ILM created this in one 1986). Followed by...

Hi everyone,

Still looking for this General Cinema Trailer from 1977 that everyone above in the post is talking about.

Anyone with information on finding a hi-res copy in Quicktime format would be great. All I can find is FLASH files.
Please contact me on this post.

Thanks in advance,
Bud [Smile]

I know but, i am looking for Hi-Res Quicktime files, which I am sure most if not all the you tube files once were then converted Down to very lo-res Flash Files so they could be viewed on you tube.
Files were out there but pulled or the links are long dead.
Thanks for the reply, you are the first in many a month.

Still looking, anyone?

E-mail Brad Miller at Film-Tech. He did the conversion of some of these to begin with. He may be able to help.
