Jason and Gabe are back and this week they’re examining the most important movie George Lucas was ever involved in, CAPTAIN EO! What is this Captain EO? It was a strange and fascinating Francis Ford Coppola directed Disney Parks exclusive 17 minute super 3D short movie that starred Michael Jackson as a space pilot with a crew of musician aliens and robots. How did this ever happen? How did Lucas get involved? How close was Lucas to being much more involved in Disney back in 1984? What changes had to made to EO before it actually played in the parks?
All that and more as we go over almost every detail and do a brief commentary for the film itself!
So shoot a rainbow beam of joy and dance out of your hand and celebrate the love with BLAST POINTS!
