i don't really know what to think about this...they are not opening this attraction for months, and then they are opening it on several dates...then closing, then opening...closing, opening...when i was in there, nearly no one was there with me...

so sad that they don't shut this one down... i loved to see Micheal Jackson in this movie, but they better do a new thing. just like in Tokyo.

I love Captain Eo so I am glad he is back. But I would love to see again "Honey I shrunk the audience" too. It was nice and I saw it a looong time ago.
That's a shame that a theatre like that remains closed for such a long time. It also had special effects (the moving seats, the lights, and in "Honey" there were the tails of the mice that were so funny) and it would be good if they would show alternately the old movies, and maybe a new one!

I suppose that at least it'll be somewhere to shelter from the rain.

I was hoping they'd put in Honey I Shrunk the Audience again (I never got to see it) or converted it into a themed Star Wars area. Or even ideally converting it into Muppetvision 3D or similar, but I think that's too expensive right now!

I don't mind Captain EO at all but it is a little dated nowadays, and the last time I watched it in DLRP the 4d stuff was mostly missing, and the 3D projection was wonky/not working properly (not helped by the seriously beat up glasses). I hope its at least been partially refurbed to fix these things, otherwise if anything it gives a worse impression than if it were just not there.

That's lame! But on the other Hand: The whole area with Star Tours, Discoveryland Station and and and need some a ttention...looks a bit tacky. ???

...the DPG is watching U...

It's such a shame that we lost 'Honey I shrunk the Audience', whilst it was already a little dated, it was a true 'adventure' style attraction.

Does anyone know if there is an actual copy of the film online anywhere? There's a decent one on youtube, but it has the monitor videos, over laying the show film, which is annoying! Any ideas?

Pfft - not a fan of bringing it back if I'm honest. Yes it was iconic and a big attraction at the time, but I think its revival has run it course.

Still, for those fans who get a chance to see it, its great and I hope they can enjoy it while they can.
