Where Are Captain EO, Hooter, Fuzzball, Major & Minor Domo in the NJO!?!

Captain EO[image=http://home.debitel.net/user/tpaeffgen/EO/ceo2.gif]

"Captain Eo was quite an impressive piece of work. It was produced by George Lucas and directed by Francis Ford Coppola. Special effects were done by Industrial Light & Magic, which is owned by Lucas. Captain Eo was 17 minutes long, and cost $1,000,000 per minute to produce. On 20 September 1986, "Disney's Captain Eo Grand Opening" aired on television. The attraction had premiered a week earler at Disneyland and at Epcot. It also made it to Tokyo Disneyland and Disneyland Paris. Now, it's gone from all of these parks, with the most recent closing being at Disneyland Paris this summer."

Woo! You know, those sci-fi-cum-fantasy characters created by George Lucas. Woo! Do you think these characters from Disney's Captain EO actually existed within the GFFA? After all, there's strong reason to think Hooter (the blue dancing elephant to Jackson's right in the above picture) could be an Ortolan racial variant. Are they canon?[image=http://www.emuck.com/AOTW/eo.jpg]

And if so, where has Captain EO been all of this time? Woo! Flying around the galaxy with his crew of Hooter, Fuzzball, Major and Minor Domo...

Would the songs of Captain EO be able to push back the Vong threat?

 

I'm speechless.

 

Hasn't this canon debate gone a bit too far?

Someone should chain the Genghis...

 

Always knew Michael Jackon couldnt be human, this proves it

 

Well, you know, the movie-purists are always telling me, "it's only Lucas' work that matters."

So, I'm wondering if we'll see Captain EO in the NJO?

 

I actually think Jacko might be a Yuzzy. I mean, look at his nose! its obviously fake. and his skin! Ooglith masquer if i ever saw one!

 

Oh, they'll love this then

 

"Well, you know, the movie-purists are always telling me, "it's only Lucas' work that matters.""

Indeed. This is canon.

 

You've outdone yourself this time Genghis.

 

muha ha ha

 

LOL

 

You've really outdone yourself this time, Genghis. And, yes Captain Eo does more than resemble Michael Jackson. ~shudders~

 

What really frightens me, Genghis is the fact that you remember the names of Jacko's crew. That being said, I loved that movie, but i would say it belongs more in the Star Trek Universe. I mean they've got some kind of Angelica Houston Borg queen going on in there...well, until that rainbow song frees her from the Borg.

 

I admit to having owned a small stuffed hooter, a gift from when my family went to Disney World.

But, hey - name a boy who doesn't like hooters.

 

I saw the post, saw the smiley, and KNEW the joke already

 

Well, she kind of looked like a vong, some weird vong who likes electronics.

 

Alright, I admit, that one was kind of too easy.

(But, I did actually own a hooter.)

 

really? How do you purchase these? Do you have it, or is it like sponsoring a Dolphin?

 

In the past Disney sold hooters. They came in different shapes and sizes. You could pick out whichever one you wanted. You could even get a pair of hooters if you wanted.

 

WOW!

I never noticed. Have to go again to look for them

 

They most likely don't sell them anymore, after the fact that Captain EO was pulled from the parks the last time I heard.

 

Captain EO

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 led by the infamous Captain EO.
EO's spaceship blasts the meteorite into pieces and then soars into the picture on its way to a nearby planet. On board, the ship's navigator appear. The creature, known as The Geex, has two heads - one named Idy and the other Ody.
Ody: This planet doesn't look so dangerous, Idy.
Idy: Is this it, Ody?
Ody: We'll see.
Idy: Ohh.
Ody: We better find that landing beacon.
Idy: Hey, Hooter, we're almost there!
Hooter: (Blows trunk) Oh, boy!
Major Domo: Don't get too close or you'll trip their intrusion alarm.
Hooter: Yeah, don't blow it you guys.
Ody: Relax, there's no problem.
Idy: No problem. (Buzzer goes off.) INTRUSION ALERT!!!
Ody: Battle alert!
Idy: Battle alert!!
Minor Domo folds his robotic arms in and ducks behind something.
Major Domo: Don't panic! That's what got us into trouble the last time.
Ody: It wasn't our fault. It was Hooter's fault.
Idy: Right, Hooter's fault.
Hooter blows air out of his trunk right at Idy and Ody.
Idy: Oh, Hooter!
Whistle goes off.
Major Domo: Straighten up men. It's the Captain.
Captain EO rises up on an elevator platform into the cabin.
Minor Domo: Good morning, Captain.
Major Domo: It looks like we tripped their intrusion alarm, sir.
Hooter: Idy and Ody blew it. They got too close.
Captain EO: We're goin' in.
Major Domo: Sir, the ship is in absolutely no condition to go into battle. I thought we'd begin by cleaning up Hooter's bunk.
Hooter throws a can across the cabin.
Captain EO: Hooter! Listen! The Command considers us a bunch of losers. But we're gonna do it right this time, 'cause we're the best. We don't we'll be drummed out of the corps.
Major Domo: We won't let you down this time, Captain.
Ody: We're going to do it right.
Idy: That's right, we'll be perfect, sir.
Hooter makes noise in agreement and salutes.
Captain EO: OK. (Salutes Hooter back.)
Idy: Captain, there's something weird out there.
Ody: A patrol ship.
Captain EO: I thought so. Maybe we can outrun him.
The enemy patrol ship roars by.
Idy: It's going to ram us!
Ody: Duck!
Captain EO: (Grabs control of the ship) Get to your stations!
EO's ship flips underneath the patrol ship, dodging it and its laser guns. Minor Domo is sent flying across the cabin into Major Domo (leaving a dent in Major Domo's metallic back). Hooter is thrown onto his bunk. The patrol ship turns around and hits EO's ship with its laser gun.
Captain EO: Hold on, everybody, hold on!
Major Domo: We haven't found the landing beacon yet.
Captain EO: Somebody get the map. Where's the map?!
Idy: Who's got the map?
Ody: Fuzzball.
Fuzzball: (Chirps) Hooter has it. (Points in Hooter's direction.)
Major Domo: Hooter has it!
Captain EO: Hooter!
Hooter: I think I ate it!
Idy & Ody: You ate it!
The chase continues with EO's ship nearing the planet. EO's Commander appears on a holographic screen.
Commander Bog: Captain EO?! You down there, EO?
Captain EO: Commander Bog.
Commander Bog: Captain EO, you are late reporting in. Are you having a problem finding our landing beacon?
Captain EO: No, sir. Everything's under control, sir!
Commander Bog looks around and sees the ship in disarray.
Commander Bog: What's going on?
Captain EO: We're having a slight weapons malfunction, sir.
Commander Bog: Captain EO, have you engaged in combat against orders?!
Hooter throws something at the screen and covers the Commander's eyes.
Commander Bog: I can't see! Captain EO, what's going on?
Captain EO: Woohoo!
The ship flies down in between buildings on the planet and approaches a tunnel.
Idy: We're going through.
Ody: No! Idy, the sail's not in.
Captain EO: Hooter, bring in the sail!
Hooter: OK.
Captain EO: It's right behind you, Hooter.
Hooter:> I can't reach it.
Commander Bog: What's going on? (The yellow substance that Hooter threw onto Co

 

I saw EO at the same time I saw Star Tours, both were quite a lot of fun. I didn't get a Hooter...well, not at Disney World at any rate, but I did get a cool black long sleeve 10th anniversey Star Wars shirt from the Star Tours shop.


And Genghis, old buddy, you have really lost it this time.

 

Nice researching there Genghis. I myself have always suspected that Vergere is in actuality Howard the Duck.

 

Ah! Captain Eo!

For years, me and my friend debated whether the blue dude was an Ortolan.

Did everyone know that the ride is now shut down? Yes, it's true. In 1997 they closed it down because no one was going on it. That's the one at Disneyland at least. Thankfully, Star Tours is still going strong there.
