Captain EO is returning to WDW.

Post by Shorty82 » Wed Apr 28, 2010 9:02 am

Just saw on the Disney Parks Blog that Captain EO is returning to Epcot in July.

Story


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Keep moving forward

Good God...

Just when I though that Disneyland was going to be the only park to have it back...


Oh well, DCA will still have the all new World of Color starting June 11th, and the show infrastructure is so large and expensive that there is no way that WDW will ever get it. ;)

And WDW will have a new Fantasyland that is so big it will dwarf the entire DLR.

I have seen Captain EO. If you have a weak stomach, take dranmine. Watch the seats. The chairs are better than the regular seats. They should have Captain EO open for grad nites, the seniors would be sent back to the buses faster.

I kind of like the seat bumping effect. :D:

I'm just glad that they don't do it for the last song, ("Another Part of Me") clearly they realized that the audience wouldn't be able handle anymore movement after the Supreme Leader is transformed.

Ok, I saw captian Eo last thursday at Disneyland. I really dont remember it sucking that bad last time I saw it. The seats moving gave me chest pains, I couldnt wait for it to end. I'm glad its temporary, I just hope they put in a new show when its run is done.

Well, I for one glad that Captain EO was brought back to Disneyland for a limited engagement.

Its great to see the film again, and it seems to be very popular with the crowds. I actually appreciate it a lot more now that I'm older and can understand the story better, as well as not be scared by the 3D effects. I'm also glad that "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience" is gone.

Also, according to that Disney Parks blog post, Captain EO will also be heading to Tokyo Disneyland and Disneyland Paris.

There is no word on what will occupy the Disneyland theater when Captain EO stops playing.

I hope WDW don't put EO in a moving theater like they did at DL.

The original EO show didn't have moving seats.
