If You Have 20 Minutes Of Free Time…

In celebration of Disneyland re-releasing Captain EO, I’ve decided to completely waste your time and destroy all of your daily productivity by posting the entire short (borrowed from Youtube). In case you have no idea what I’m talking about, Disneyland California brought back and re-premiered the sci-fi short this week.

Captain EO was created in 1986 as an attraction for people to come to the theme park. Starring Michael Jackson, Anjelica Huston and a bunch of puppets, the short also has big names like Francis Coppola and George Lucas attached. Captain EO is a 3D sci-fi space ship type short film that ran for about 10 years in Disneyland. In 1997 it was replaced by another attraction, Honey I Shrunk The Audience… I probably don’t have explain how Honey I Shrunk The Audience was barely the attraction that Captain EO was.

In any case, with the passing of the King of Pop, Disneyland decided to bring Captain EO out of the vault for a short run at the Tomorrowland Theater. If you can’t make it all the way to Anaheim, you can watch it below (sans 3D glasses of course)
