Captian Eo v.s. Hunny I Shrunk the audience

[wdwfan2012]

I dont know about everyone else, but Captian EO okay, but i really liked the Hunny I shrunk that audience WAY BETTER. I understand, that it was for M.J's death, and a tribute, but its been 2 years since he died! Common bring back the other one now. Granted that Captain EO had great effects for its time, its starting to over play, along with anything else, related to MJ's death. Lets put back H.I.S.A in there, please.

I know alot of people are fans of C.E. but really think about it, the area is themed for inventor Wayne Seliskine (spelling?), and "Dr. Nigal Channing", etc... so really makes sense to bring back H.I.S.A. and leave the C.E. for the merch. around the park

HISA isn't coming back. They are working on a new work for that space. EO is starting to close at some of the other parks...but its still going strong at WDW. There will be a new attraction in there, but it isn't going to be HISA

Until they can figure out something amazing - EO needs to stay. If they go to the trouble of swapping them back out again...they will lay back and relax for another 10 years and continue to let that area rot. EO has enough of an appeal, it plays to the nostalgia of the 80s, which is fun, and will eventually need to be replaced...but with something new and exciting....

I understand that it wont be HISA but what else can they replace it with? I guess right now, anything else WOULD BE MUCH BETTER! But it has to go with the theme of the land

Man that area of Epcot needs some work/love!

So why exactly is there a curvature cutting off a bit of the image at the top left portion of the screen in that theater?

 

[RonAnnArbor]

It was designed that way for Captain EO and they just left it that way for HISA

 

[rufio]

I love Captain EO!

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

I like Captain EO better than HISTA, but how cool would it be to have a 3D film in that spot featuring Figment!

If i had to choose i would choose H.I.S.T.K I am not a fan of captain E.O I seen it one time and that was enough for me.

I was so excited to take DW and kids to Captain EO in August 2010, having intentionally avoided it in the 80s and 90s. Thought it might be a fun way for my kids to "experience the 80s". Unfortunately, I should have stuck to my original strategy. We all hated it. Bad acting, weak music, cheap-looking sets, and a completely unfathomable plot. The kids would have had a better 80s experience if I had downloaded nearly any video from Thriller.

I've often thought the same thing. For me, a pentagon-shaped screen interrupts the delivery of the 3D image that is best suited for a rectangular screen.

Why bring back HISTA when they could put something new there?

I liked both Captain EO and HISTA, but it's time for something new to be put in their place. I don't want them to keep recycling the same two films over and over again. I could actually go on and on about how the entire pavilion needs a face lift, but I won't for the purposes of staying on topic.

 

[wolf359]

To me it really isn't a versus issue; both films are dated and tired. It was fun to see EO one more time in 3D but now that the novelty and nostalgia is over it is time for something new.

 

[Bairstow]

At least Captain Eo doesn't try to fondle the back of my legs with an air hose...


What?

 

[Donald96]

Is there any ideas for something to go here? It feels like Captain EO should be operating seasonally by now, and while I find Figment OK there seems to be a lot of support for a change, and I wouldn't complain if they redid the whole Imagination Pavillion....

 

[Samoht]

I agree completely. We are leaving for Disney on Sat. and I wish HONEY.... Was back instead of Captain EO. Not a huge deal but, why bring it back for soo long? I will be skipping that experience this year.

Good. I was getting tired of HISTA and CEO was a little dated as far as 3D.

 

[Timekeeper]

HISTA was visually horrible. The CGI was awful, the miniatures looked like something made from a model kit off a Wal-Mart shelf, and the 3D was extremely blurry; even worse than the Mickey portions of Philharmagic. Whether you like EO or not, the show at least looks great. It, like a lot of movies nowadays, was just made "better" back when quality was more important than quantity.

Captain eo is the best!!! Brings back childhood memories!!
