Trivia
Ran in EPCOT in Disney World from 1986 until 1997 when it was replaced by another 3D show Honey, I Shrunk the Audience (1994). Following the sudden death of Michael Jackson in June 2009, Disney decided to reinstate Captain EO. The original show opened once again in February 2010 under the title "Captain EO Tribute." This is likely the only occurrence where a Disney attraction replaced the attraction that replaced it initially.

Goofs
When the Captain is confronting the Evil Queen, he takes a few steps up the stairway for emphasis, accidentally revealing the puppeteer controlling the Fuzzball character sitting on his shoulder.

Quotes
[first lines]
Narrator: The Cosmos, a universe of good and evil, where a small group struggles to bring freedom to the countless worlds of despair. A rag-tag band lead by the infamous Captain EO.

Alternate versions
In the TV Spots there is an added shot of the Queens' troops holding their spears over their heads as they approach Captain EO.

EO on DVD anytime soon?

Having worked the attraction at Disneyland a few years and having thus seen the film a great many times, I would love to see this film on DVD but wonder if in this age of Political Correctnes and what with the legal mess that the star of the film is in, perhaps I/we will wait a great deal longer... fingers are in crossed position though...I wouldn't mind also, to just obtain the soundtrack on a CD of some sort. One of the songs, "Just another part of me" is found on the "BAD" album, but the other one from the film entitled, "We are here to change the world" is somewhat more elusive to the average citizen such as I. In Disneyland, one used to be able to burn their own audio CD of popular, past attractions such as the "Carosel of Progress" or "Pirates of the Carribean" but never Captain EO.
