Captain EO Is Returning To Disneyland
Straight from the Disney Parks Blog comes this announcement:
Twenty-three years ago, at the height of his phenomenal entertainment career, Michael Jackson joined forces with Disney to create “Captain EO,” a groundbreaking 17-minute 3D film experience.
We are excited to confirm that the classic musical spectacular that thrilled Disneyland park guests from 1986 – 1997, will return for an exclusive, limited engagement at Disneyland park beginning in February 2010!

The attraction’s return to Tomorrowland will provide new audiences the opportunity to experience the original 3D production for the very first time, as well as a nostalgic look back for longtime fans wanting to see “The King of Pop” in a rare performance created for the big-screen, just one more time.
“Honey I Shrunk The Audience” will be closing sometime in the next few weeks to make way for the Captain’s return.
Check back here for more details on “Captain EO.”
While I am certainly not teary eyed for the departure of Honey I Shrunk The Audience, I am not what you would call a Michael Jackson fan. It is especially hard for me to differentiate between the man’s phenomenal musical talent, and the rather (in my opinion) disgusting way in which he lived his life. So this is not particularly exciting news for me, but at least it means something fresh in Tomorrowland. The land in Disneyland that seems to suffer from stagnation more often than any of the other themed areas in the park – a little ironic, yes?
