CAPTAIN EO RETURNS TO DISNEYLAND


So I had some filming to do at Disneyland yesterday and thought I would check out the re-opening of Captain EO. From the staging area to the exit of the theater it’s exactly what I remember as a kid. They used the original untouched footage from the 80′s and it made me feel like I was 8 again. This Tribute should stick around for a while as far as I’m concerned. It’s WAY better than “Honey I shrunk the audience”. I lost interest in the shrunk show long ago. The packed house cheered when MJ came up out of the floor and erupted when he moon walked in 3D across the silver screen.
Even though Disney did a great job in bringing the King of Pop back in the form of EO, they did a terrible job in grouping pictures. As I exited the newly opened Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln I saw this:
Did they really put Miley Cyrus next to the King of Pop and the King of Rock and Roll?!!!
C’mon people!!! I know Disney is going to push their product anywhere they can, but this is like putting Paulie Shore next to Jimmy Stewart! Am I supposed to be okay with this?
When she has changed the face of music and has as many singles as Elvis and MJ then we can talk. Just cause she Parties in the USA, doesn’t mean she’s an “ICON/LEGEND”.
