Remember Captain "EO"

[Tinkerbell1220]

Who remebers this "3d" movie wonder if it was here today... If it would still be showing?

I Remember every detail of it. There is a 2D version of it floating on the net - end credits and everything!!

I'd rather not remember it, thank you.

Is it finally gone from Disneyland?

I just downloaded a 2-D, Black-and-White copy of Captain EO and I must say, I'm impressed. I think Disney should release this on video or rerelease it in The Magic Eye Theater next year for its 20th Anneversary.

I was watching late night TV one night about seven or so years ago, and lucked into a TV airing! I was able to pop a tape into the VCR and record the whole thing. I can't even remember what channed it was on - may very well have been the Disney channel, but I'm not sure.

There is a 2D colour master floating around the net (I mentioned it above) - its by Three DDD / TWDC... seems official (its also copyrighted in the United Kingdom, not the States). Pretty good quality (obviously off tape - theres bits of drop out and edge scrape) and its in stereo. I got it off Disney-Central mIRC, but I think Popkid lost it when his hard drive went down..

I remember and love that movie.

I think you can find it on #Disney-Central

Thankx

You can buy the dvd on ebay

 

[JackSkellington]

No way!!! Are you serious??

 

[marni1971]

I think vhsshoulddie means someone has taken the 2D master I have, put it on a DVD, and is trying to auction it on ebay. Or - heaven forbid - the ebay version was shot in the theatre on a camcorder!! TWDC never released it commercially - I believe it was shown once on US TV in 1987, and we have seen some clips on UK TV in news programs.

That show used to scare me to death when i was little

 

[JackSkellington]

Yeah how could we watch it if it was 3d?

 

[bgraham34]

I have seen the dvd version and it looks good. DOnt see any 3d at all.

 

[stitch rocks]

i just watched the video on my computer.... no wonder i didn't remember it... i blocked it out of my mind since i was a kid

I have it video taped from a trip in 1986. Put the glasses on the camera and everything....you can see them fall off a few times in the film. If anyone knows how I can post it on this site I would love to share it.

It was shown on MTV when Michael's CD "Invincible" was released a few years ago. I taped it from there.

In spite of all of his legal troubles, the man is extremely talented when he is singing and dancing. I used to look forward to seeing Captain EO when I went to WDW. I can do without Honey I Shrunk The Audience. I mean it's alright, and if I'm in the parks long enough to do everything else I want to do I'll see it but I'm not going to go out of my way for it. I would have (And still would) go out of my way to see Captain EO. I for one miss it.

Would it still be showing now if they hadn't replaced it? I doubt it.
