'''Music/Sounds:''' A futuristic rock-like orchestration which is kinda fast-paced to match the opening's roller coaster theme. Before the first drop, a female voice says: "Welcome to Regal Cinemas." (before 2002)/"Welcome to Regal Entertainment." (after 2002). "Refreshments are available in the lobby. And please, keep our theatre clean by disposing of trash in the specified containers. And remember: gift certificates are available for any special occasion. Enjoy the show!" At one point, there's a loud popcorn pop sound. The original version was released in Dolby Stereo, before being remixed in Dolby Digital in 1998 (the popcorn pop sound was louder on screens equipped with Dolby Digital in the 1998 version).

'''Editor's Note:''' This trailer is a favorite of many, thanks to the fantastic CGI. It is very telling that they brought this back twice after the initial follow-ups failed to live up to this logo.
