Anyone else notice it? Looks like a normal Dolby DIGITAL logo, but the box that should contain the word "DOLBY" is a solid white box.

Ok, maybe I pay attention to detail TOOOOO much. You can say it. I won't be offended.

I noticed the same thing! It was only on screen for a second or two, so I figured maybe I was seeing incorrectly. Anyone know what is up with that?

Ok, good. I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one! [Wink]

Maybe Sony is ashamed to show the competition. Albeit DTS looked normal, but hey, DTS isn't really competition.

Indeed the Dolby logo is popping up in more and more flavors every day.
I did notice the odd Dolby logo on XXX: State/Union, I did also notice on some of the other trailers I'm playing that the Dolby Digital logo also has SR right next to it.

Oh, wonderful. More trademark confusion.

Haven't seen this trailer, but have seen the Dolby logo turn out like that on others. It appears to be from the logo being overexposed/too bright so the letters don't show up (sorry for my complete lack of technical terminology, I'm about to go to sleep!)
