The new theatre is modern in every way, equipped with RealD(R) 3D to provide true-to-life 3D. RealD is on the cutting edge of digital 3D technology, giving moviegoers a stunningly realistic movie experience that engages the imagination, activates the senses and invites the audience not only to watch a film, but also step inside the story.

The Regal IMAX(R) Theatre will showcase Hollywood blockbusters that have been digitally re-mastered into the unique image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience as well as original documentary-style IMAX content. Films are projected on a specially-designed IMAX screen, combined with IMAX's proprietary digital surround sound system and patented theatre geometry to create "The IMAX Experience," making audiences feel as if they are IN the movie.

Every Regal Entertainment Group IMAX theatre also offers IMAX 3D. When filmmakers choose to integrate IMAX 3D into their movies, images leap off of the screen and into the laps of the audience, further enhancing the feeling of being IN the movie. This is made possible by a combination of IMAX's powerful projection system - which simultaneously projects two separate images onto the IMAX screen - and polarized IMAX 3D glasses that audience members wear to fuse the two images into a single three-dimensional motion picture. The result is an amazing IMAX 3D Experience where the screen disappears and the movie envelopes the audience.

Upcoming IMAX movies include: Happy Feet 2 in 3D (11/18), Mission: Impossible- Ghost Protocol (12/16), Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn in 3D (12/23),and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island in 3D (2/10).

The 21-screen theatre covers approximately 100,684 square feet and includes more than 4,500 seats. Moviegoers will enjoy digital projection in every auditorium, stadium seating, with each row elevated for an unobstructed view, and high-back rocking chairs featuring cupholder armrests which move out of the way to form seats for two.

Opry Mills Stadium 20 & IMAX will also offer the Regal Crown Club to reward frequent guests. With more than seven million active members, Regal Crown Club is the number one theatre loyalty program in the country. Through the Regal Crown Club patrons accumulate credits at the box office and concession stand to earn free popcorn, soft drinks and movies. Free membership is available at the theatre or online.
