Captain EO dances his way to DisneyWorld Florida…
Back in the 80’s that was a true statement, Michael Jackson danced his way into our hearts and minds with a little help from George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola. Starting out in Disneyland and eventually making his way to Disneyworld and the rest of the Disney Universe. Here is the breakdown of Captain EO performances at the various Disney Parks:

Today on Febuary 23rd 2010 Michael Jackson will be dancing his was back to Disneyland California. After a 13-year absence, the 17-minute film, “Captain EO,” starring Michael Jackson returns!
One question remains…
When are we going to see Michael at Walt Disney World in Florida?
I was just at DisneyWorld and no offense to Disney or any of the cast of Honey I shrunk the Kids but you can tell that that show is starting to get very old. Even the 15 minute commercial from Kodak is old. Don’t even get me started on that..
Hopefully Disney is going to see huge numbers at the Captain EO show in Disneyland and decide to ditch “Honey” in Florida and follow suit.
No matter where you look today on the various blogs, news, or social websites there is talk of one thing Michael Jackson. He touched a generation with his music, with his dancing, and with his love. Having seen the show only one time when I was little but having rewatched the videos online I would love to take my little one to see a performance of a great man.
