To round out the week, we now have the 4K IMAX version of Trailer 1 for The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025). The latter portion of the trailer is in the IMAX 1.90:1 ratio. It is also 4K, with the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack. Of course, there is also a 1080p version with AC3 audio for compatibility. Enjoy!

Well that didn’t take too long! The Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025) page has been updated to include 4K encodes with 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio. That’s right, 7.1.
Quick Note on Superbowl Trailers
There will be a number of trailers and spots released on Sunday night during the Superbowl. In an effort to get things to you as quickly as possible, I plan to have a post on the home page that I will update with any trailers I post. To ensure I can get things to you quickly I will only be posting one encode per trailer. It will be an MP4 with with AC3 Stereo audio. I probably will not have any 4K or 5.1 audio on Sunday. But I will provide a nice 1080p that will meet the standards of this site. I hope you understand, it takes hours to do these multiple encodes, so it really is not possible to get everything to you during a football game.

To be honest, when I went to see Jurassic World: Dominion (2022) I thought that it was the end of the series. Afterall, the original three stars were reunited and that is usually an indicator of things wrapping up (except in the case of The Force Awakens). But here we are just a few years later with the upcoming Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025). Rebirth is the key.
I am happy that we are going to have a new Jurassic adventure. The original from 1993 is a groundbreaking moment in cinematic history. It really pushed the envelope in what was possible with digital visual effects, and it was also the first film to be released with DTS sound. Much like Star Wars (1977), it set the stage for a new era of movie making. And the score by John Williams is superb. That being said, I would say my favorite is The Lost World (1997).
I clearly remember seeing both in the cinema for the first time, but The Lost World just seemed to be have higher stakes and more peril. I am also a big fan of the sound design by Gary Rydstrom. If you have a 5.1 or higher sound system with a big subwoofer, put on the scene where the T-Rexes attack the command bus that eventually goes over the cliff. It is a masterpiece. The T-Rex attack in the original is as well, but I think there is a lot more going on in that scene from The Lost World.
I will have encodes with 5.1 audio and likely 4K resolution in the coming days. But for now, please go to the Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025) page to get the first trailer with 10 bit video and Stereo DTS-HD Master Audio.

I think a lot of people have been waiting to get their first look at the upcoming Marvel Studio’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025), and the wait is over. The film stars Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, aka. Mister Fantastic; and Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, aka. the Invisible Woman. Joseph Quinn plays Johnny Storm / Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach is Ben Grimm, aka. The Thing. Together they are The Fantastic Four!
I have been looking forward to this for another reason. I share the last name of Mister Fantastic: Richards. And there is a Marvel baddie that shares my name. Jonathan Richards, aka. Hyperstorm. You can find out how amazing he is at the Marvel Fandom Database. Who would not want a Marvel movie with a character with their name? Anyway, this gets me one step closer. And if you didn’t check out that link, Hyperstorm (Jonathan Richards) is the grandson of Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic) and Sue Storm (Invisible Woman); and Scott Summers (Cyclops) and Jean Grey (Phoenix). That is an amazing combination of mutant powers.
Sorry, a little off track and self indulgent. As the title of this post suggests, I only have 1080p and stereo encodes available. I should have 4K, IMAX and 5.1 versions available in the coming days. These things take time. For now, head over to the The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) page and check out the first trailer.
Oh! I forgot to mention that this is in a 1920×1080 frame size as there is a mixture of aspect ratios. For those of you with Anamorphic Lenses…I feel your pain.

Captain America: Brave New World (2025)
Today’s update brings the 4K IMAX version of Trailer 3 for Captain America: Brave New World (2025). This IMAX trailer features a mix of shots, some in the 1.90:1 aspect ratio, and others in 2.39:1 widescreen. I did notice that a few of the shots in the IMAX ratio, seemed to be enlarged/zoomed/cropped from the 2.39:1 shot. I say this because these shots do not have additional picture information at the top and bottom when compared to the 2.39:1 version, but instead are missing information from the sides…suggesting that it was zoomed-in and not filmed in the IMAX aspect ratio. Not sure why they did that, but they seem to be shots of explosions, so perhaps to make them more impressive in the trailer. I wonder if the IMAX version of the full movie will be the same way.
We are just three weeks away from the theatrical release of Captain America: Brave New World (2025). I am a little behind on the Disney+ content, so I am planning on watching ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ before I see Captain America: Brave New World (2025). This will probably be beneficial for the lead up to Thunderbolts* (2025) as well, seeing that it has the Winter Soldier in it as well.

I am cutting it close for this one as I don’t like to post trailers close to the theatrical release dates for fear of it being picked up as an illegal copy of the film. But I will give it a try. From the studio that brought you “The Notebook”, comes Companion (2025). You will soon realize that it is nothing like “The Notebook” (thankfully). Off topic, but related…my first wife ordered “The Notebook” from Columbia House (is that still around?) but never sent in the money. Eventually I saw the bill and had to pay something like $200 for that movie. Ugh. “The Notebook”.
Companion (2025) stars Sophie Thatcher, who is known from Showtime’s series Yellowjackets (2021-present), and for her appearance in The Book of Boba Fett (2022).
The first trailer for Companion (2025) is available in 4K, with several 10 bit encodes with different levels of chroma subsampling. All have the official 5.1 audio and there are 1080p versions as well. These can all be found at the Companion (2025) page.

The third, and likely final trailer for Captain America: Brave New World (2025) is now up. This trailer doesn’t show a lot more than we have seen in the pervious trailers, but it is cut in a very different way. At the moment I do not have the IMAX or 4K versions, so the 1080p will have to do. It does have the official 5.1 audio track in DTS-HD Master Audio. Visit the Captain America: Brave New World (2025) page to get it.
F1, for those who do not know stands for Formula One. And Formula One is the highest class of international racing for open-wheel single-seater formula racing cars sanctioned by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile. I first watched this teaser back in the summer, but I did not have a 5.1 mix for the audio until now. I am really glad that I held off posting until a 5.1 track was available. I think that this is a bit of a rare trailer, where the 5.1 mix utilizes all the channels to place the sound effects in the sound space to correspond to the location of the objects on screen. It is really well done.
It reminds me of an IMAX film from the late 90’s called Super Speedway, which was insanely loud but featured amazing directionality. I have it somewhere on DVD, it won’t look too great now, but I think it will still sound fantastic. If your friends are questioning why you have a full speaker array instead of a soundbar – put this on and crank it up. They won’t question anymore.
F1 (2025) is directed by Joseph Kosinski who also directed a little film called Top Gun: Maverick (2022). Those combat shots from Maverick were so well done, and really, a F1 car is just a plane that has enough down force to keep it from flying.
The film stars Brad Pitt as a Formula One racer who comes out of retirement to mentor an F1 team. Kerry Condon (Better Call Saul) also stars as the engineer, or race strategist. Something technical, that is for sure. We also have Javier Bardem, who looks wealthy so I am guessing he is the team owner. Certainly has a Tony Stark vibe going on…although Tony raced his own car in Iron Man 2.
I am saying that it is Trailer 1, but it is actually considered a Teaser. Either way, you can download it at the F1 (2025) page.
As mentioned in my pervious post (scroll down) the Superman (2025) page has been updated with lossless 10 bit 4K UHD encodes with 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio of the first trailer. Superman (2025) directed by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023), Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)) is a reboot of the Superman series and is the first film in the DC Universe (DCU); produced by the newly formed DC Studios, a subsidiary of Warner Bros.
Here is my take on recent DC films. They make a good movie that is widely liked, and then follow it up with a sequel that seems to go in a whole other direction. It is not well received, so they reboot again. Variety is good, but if you are making a series there needs to be consistency. James Gunn has a consistent background with Guardians of the Galaxy in the MCU, so I hope he has influence in how the DCU moves forward. Speaking of the MCU, not all is perfect there either. There was a bit of a slump post Avengers: Endgame (2019) but it seems that they have quickly adjusted and got back on track. Captain America: Brave New World (2025) and Thunderbolts* (2025) both look to be in line with pre Endgame features.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to get on an MCU train while talking about the DCU…however, this is what it is all about. The DCU is meant to be a challenge to the MCU. Healthy competition is a good thing. I am hoping that if Superman (2025) turns out to be well received, they don’t decide to follow it up with Superman: The Musical (2027), or Superman: The Silent Film (2027).
Superman (2025) looks to be a great reboot and launching point to the DCU. I also think this is a fantastic trailer. I love the rendition of John Williams’ Superman theme (1978) with the electric guitar! And yes, it is 4K in the IMAX 1.90;1 aspect ratio.
I’m really looking forward to it. All my encodes can be found here.

Happy New Year!
This year, thedigitaltheater.com turns 10 years old. Launched on July 22, 2015 this is now pretty much the only place in the universe to get high quality movie trailers, with lossless video and multi channel audio. Gone is the old https://demo-world.eu which used to contain a wealth of trailers in 5.1, including audio format trailers such as DTS and THX. Demo World was a great source of material. Near the end, they were borrowing encodes from me, which I took to be a great honour. The domain is still alive, and is dedicated to the history and technology of sound in film. If you are like me and have a passion for sound, head on over to https://demo-world.eu
HD-Trailers.net was also a good resource, providing links to trailers with 5.1 audio. As their source became limited, they moved to providing download links to trailers hosted by Apple. But when Apple moved their trailers from trailers.apple.com to Apple TV the page essentially died, as all the links ceased to work! That is why from the beginning, I have had full control of every link that I posted. There are user uploaded trailers that I have no control over, but I wanted to ensure that what I posted were files that I encoded and had access to the location.
Thinking about it, the biggest weakness this site has is the reliance on WeTransfer. If they ceased to exist all my links would be dead as well. However, I do have a backup of all my uploads so I would just need to upload it all again. It would not be pleasant, but not the end of the world.
thedigitaltheater.com is still here!
2024 was an historic year for this site. I promoted (for free) 37 films, an all time record; and almost twice the number as years past. I encoded and uploaded over 330 .mkv and .mp4 files (22% of all the files since 2015). Almost every film had a trailer in 4K encoded from a 4K master, many in the IMAX aspect ratio. I was really proud of the trailers I had available for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) as there were 20 encodes of the two trailers, including the 4K IMAX. To be honest, I took the box-office performance of Furiosa a bit personally. On a personal level, I spent a lot of time working on those trailers – making sure people would have the ability to see and hear them in their best possible way, which would generate interest in seeing it in the theater. If it is a good theater, that is the place to see it. So when the numbers came in, I felt like I was doing this for nothing. It killed the momentum I had going. As someone left in the comments: “Bro dipped again lol”
But that comment was great, as it was not mean but it was to the point. It made me laugh and want to keep going. Thank you Bro dipped again lol! I try my best to respond to comments on this site, as well as on Facebook and X. I can not always do so. Rest assured that I do see what you send me.
Challenges
Even though I published a record amount of content in 2024, it did not come without challenges. The most recent being my Facebook post about the Superman (2025) trailer. It was removed and I was notified that it violated community standards, for being misleading or hateful. I submitted an appeal, which has not made a difference as far as I can tell. I don’t know what the issue is, but all I can think of is the term superman may be flagged as some sort of male superiority or misogynistic proclamation. It is the first time it has happened, and since I just added the 4K 5.1 versions to the page, I will soon add a new post and see if it happens again. BTW, since you are reading this, you have advance notice that the 4K 5.1 versions of the Superman (2025) trailer are up. !Shhhh…
Other challenges include recent Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) violations targeted at my advertising account. At the moment, I have policy violations for Venom: The Last Dance (2024) and The Creator. I have already removed The Creator, but it keeps coming up in my notifications. If you want the trailers for Venom: The Last Dance (2024) get them now!
A few years ago I had this happen with a Warner Bros. film, and when I issued a counter claim I received a letter from one of their lawyers saying it would never happen again. It has not happened since for Warner Bros. I sent in a counter claim for The Creator but nothing came of it. Which is too bad, as it was a great film with 2.76:1 trailers. Anyway, these DMCA violations seem to be increasing, and are targeted towards site revenue, not the content. If it were content, it would be a search result violation, not an advertising policy violation. This is an ongoing concern of mine.
I did not mean to turn this into a manifesto, but I guess I had a lot to say! The other challenge I have is advertising revenue. It is down, way down. It is about 10% of its peak, even though I have been publishing 100% more content. It is still covering the cost of hosting, but in no way is it coming close to meeting cost of the time and effort that goes into it. For the most part, I do this because it is a passion of mine. I want to put these trailers out so that you can experience them the best way possible.
It still boggles my mind why the studios are not doing the same. It also still boggles my mind that Dolby® hit me with that trademark infringement where I was promoting their products, and allowing people to hear their proprietary sound formats in they way they should be heard, instead of compressed AAC stereo on YouTube. (Dolby® and Atmos® are registered trademarks of Dolby® Laboratories. thedigitaltheater.com is not affiliated with or endorsed by Dolby® in any way. For more information on Dolby® products and services, visit www.dolby.com) For the record, Dolby® should be affiliated with this site. I asked, and they said they had to respect their licensees. But if I were a licensee, I would not be happy with people thinking that what they hear on YouTube is actually Dolby® Atmos®, as is the case. Anyway, you’re here because you know, you’re on YouTube because you don’t.
