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.
The design of the Supreme Leader was based on that of a spider. Anjelica Huston accepted the role without realizing she'd have to be suspended from cables for most of the shoot. The Supreme Leader design would years later serve as the primary inspiration for the design of the Borg Queen (who also was suspended in midair by cables) from Star Trek: First Contact (1996) and Star Trek: Voyager (1995).
This movie has never been released on video, VHS, Laserdisc, DVD or Blu ray, neither in its flat (2D) version than its stereoscopic (3D) version. Some illegal and bad quality copies may be available on the Internet but these are not Disney's or Sony official products.
Steven Spielberg was originally going to direct the movie but had to cancel because of a busy schedule. Francis Ford Coppola did the directing instead.
It was Francis Ford Coppola himself who came up with the title character's name. "Captain EO" was derived from "Eos," the goddess of dawn from Greek mythology.
"Captain EO: We have come here uninvited and unannounced. The Supreme Leader: So... then we both admit to your... stupidity! Why have you come? Captain EO: To bring a gift, your highness. To someone as beautiful as you. The Supreme Leader: You?... Think me beautiful? Captain EO: Very beautiful within, your highness, but without a key to unlock it, and that is my gift to you. The Supreme Leader: So... let me see this gift! Captain EO: Not only see, your highness... but hear."
"Captain EO: Somebody get the map; where's the map? Idee: Who's got the map? Odee: Fuzzball? Fuzzball: Hooter has it. Major Domo: Hooter has it! Captain EO: Hooter! Hooter: I think I ate it! Idee, Odee: You ate it?"
