*'''2010(?):''' Before the 5th logo was introduced, a(n apparently) prototype version of that existed where there are now Raisinets and M&Ms boxes at the first drop, the candy boxes after the filmreel drop are now Sour Patch and Cookie Dough Bites and the Coca-Cola cups have been updated to the respective era's design along with the Regal popcorn bags.

'''Technique:''' The whole thing, which looks like a first-person rollercoaster ride, animated in CGI.

'''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. 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. A small finish is heard at the end of the logo. 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).

'''Trivia:''' This sequence concludes Regal's "Pepsi Girl" policy trailer. The spot, starring Hallie Kate Eisenberg in her role from Pepsi's ad campaign at the time (where she'd lip-sync to male actors' voices for comical effect, in this case reading out movie theater rules at a wild west saloon), was widely lambasted by filmgoers and projectionists alike for its overlong and unfunny nature, and for replacing the beloved "Rollercoaster" trailer. There are reports that audiences would boo at the trailer and throw objects at the screen while it was on.
