Since the death of Michael Jackson on June 25, 2009, the short movie Captain EO has regained popularity on the internet on such sites as Twitter and Facebook, as well as MTV.com's movie blog. At the time it was the most expensive film ever produced on a per-minute basis, averaging out at $1.76 million per minute. Many fans are now suggesting that The Walt Disney Company should bring the Tomorrowland attraction back to Disneyland Park. The film Captain EO was directed by Francis Ford Coppola, executive-produced by George Lucas and stars Michael Jackson. The score was written by James Horner, and it featured two songs ("We Are Here to Change the World" and "Another Part of Me") by Michael Jackson. Captain EO made full use of its 3-D effects, being choreographed by Jeffrey Hornaday, produced by Rusty Lemorande, and written by Lemorande, Lucas and Coppola. The action on the screen extended into the audience, including lasers, laser impacts, smoke effects, and starfields that filled the theater. These effects resulted in the seventeen-minute film costing an estimated $30 million dollars to produce.
