'''Regal Entertainment Group''' is an American cinema chain. Founded in 1989 as Regal Cinemas (its first location, the seven-screen Searstown Cinema in Titusville, Florida, was acquired from Orange State Theatres as a twin before the end of the year and opened the following March), within years they would become the owners of Edwards Theaters and [[United Artists Theaters]]. Regal, and rival [[AMC Theatres]], were owners of the joint venture [[Global Road Entertainment|Open Road Films]] from its founding in 2011, up to 2017. Since December 2017, Regal is currently owned by London-based Cineworld Group, after they purchased Regal for $3.6 billion, creating the world's second largest cinema group. | '''Regal Entertainment Group''' is an American cinema chain.

The rollercoaster was given a sleeker look with small spinning fans on the bottom, the Regal logo is changed from Regal Cinemas to Regal Entertainment Group, and "FEATURE PRESENTATION" is wiped in from the center with sparkling effects. | *'''2002-2004:''' The dashboard is straight instead of curved with more details (including a handle that automatically moves).
