Please forgive me for I just want to give a moment to pay respect to Michael Jackson and his influence to the world. I remember back in the 80's how his music brought joy and fun to a growing world. Off the wall, Thriller, and Bad are examples of what a great artist he was. As a superstar he became the biggest in the world to reach legend status. For this brings me to his attraction he did for the theme park industry.

CAPTAIN EO
Captain Eo was in many way's what change the 3-D to 4-d movie attraction forever.
I remember hearing about Captain Eo and wanted to go so bad to see this. I thought a Michael Jackson movie at Disney!wow! When can I go. After seeing Captain Eo I was so amaze by the film I couldn't wait to see it again. I saw it at Epcot and what I didn't know was this was the first step into what would revolutionize the 3-D film attraction forever. There were many talent that work with Michael Jackson on Captain Eo and this is in many way's a thank you to them and Michael for Captain Eo and what would pay the way for "T2-3D Battle across time" and "Honey I struck the audience" and other great 3-D films. So, here I've posted links and video's to Captain Eo and it's many fan site. I even leave a link to WDW Radio Lou podcast about 3-D movie where he talk about Captain Eo at Epoct. But more importantly is the Season Pass Podcast interview with Rick Rothschild who work on the attraction and Michael himself. This was a great interview where he talk about his works and Captain Eo attraction too. Thank you for letting post this. Thank you Michael and rest in peace.

I also always wanted to see Michael in Captain EO, but I never got a chance to experience the attraction. I so regret it now. I know it was an amazing experience to see it then! May Michael, Farrah, and McMahon...cultural Legends, rest in peace.

I know that I can speak for Doug when I say that I think we both feel like a part of our childhood died today.
