The screens in the redesigned opening tunnel display "No Recording Devices or Cameras Allowed", "No Smoking" and "Hearing Impaired Devices/Available Upon Request". The rollercoaster's track is now light-blue, still shaped like a filmstrip but with embedded circuitry (presumably because of the switchover to digital film). Before going through the filmreel, there are screens advertising private screening and birthday rooms with balloons to the right. After that, the concessions from the 2004-2005 opening plus M&Ms are seen, with Sour Patch Kids taking Twizzlers' previous place. The area where bare girders were before now have a billboard for Sprint, and redesigned Regal popcorn bags appear afterwards. The redesigned futuristic exit is decorated with various beat boxes and moving speakers. The rollercoaster car itself now resembles more of a monorail/maglev style vehicle, and the Regal logo is far shinier, with "FEATURE PRESENTATION" now in smaller text and separated from the logo by a large line.

'''Technique:''' CGI animation again produced by SmithGroup Communications. Jim Dalgleish (who worked on the original) and Craig Paup recreated the opening with Modo (tunnel rendering and coaster) and LightWave 3D (tunnel modeling and ending).

'''Music/Sounds:''' Same as the 2002-2008 versions of the 2nd opening. The short version plays the end of the music from the 7th opening.

ASSISTIVE LISTENING CAPTIONING AND DESCRIPTIVE AUDIO DEVICES AVAILABLE and: NO RECORDING DEVICES OR CAMERAS ALLOWED. Then, the rollercoaster's grid writes another message saying: IN CASE OF EMERGENCY PLEASE PROCEED TO THE NEAREST EXIT. The rocket propeller messages start to write: NO TEXTING DURING THE MOVIE and: PLEASE SILENCE YOUR CELL PHONE.

The camera then speeds up and we ride down to reveal a skyline. Billboards start to reveal concession covers (Sour Patch Kids, Nestle's Buncha Crunch, Nestle's Raisinets, Sour Patch). Right above the Sour Patch billboard, a Geico ad appears. We pan up to see the Regal Crown Club logo, with "Get Free Rewards!" below it. Suddenly, the environment becomes a Grand Canyon-like area. The rollercoaster grid writes "Gift Cards Available", and we pan down to see two Coca-Cola containers, the left one containing the Coca-Cola "Smiley Face" logo, and the right one containing the Regal logo. We then go through a tunnel, causing the environment to change to what looks like a purple alien planet. Suddenly, a piece of popcorn pops, causing other invisible popcorn kernels to pop and fill the screen. We go through the popcorn and stop at the cinema in a first-person view, with the track being in the middle and the seats being on the sides. Curtains unveil, and the Regal logo forms. It pans to the left to let the company name and the text "Please Enjoy These Coming Attractions" appear. The logo shines.

'''Logo:''' We see an orange camera aperture, with lots of orange crystals coming out of it. Those crystals start forming a crown. Once the crown is formed, it moves to the center of the screen, and rotates to a bird's eye view. A light in the crown forms an "R", creating the current Regal logo. the word "REGAL" wipes in underneath the logo, underneath which, the text "''the '''best''' place to watch a movie''" wipes in. the logo becomes 2D. and fades out.

'''Trivia:''' The new logo’s orange color pays homage to Knoxville, the home of the Tennessee Volunteers, where Regal are based in. The logo itself represents the aperture of a camera, as well as a downward view of the signature Regal crown.
