Favorite Captain EO memories

Captain EO, starring Michael Jackson and Angelica Huston, returns to Disneyland February 23, 2010

Captain EO, the 3D short starring Michael Jackson as an intergalactic hero sent to deliver the gift of song to the evil Supreme Leader (played by Angelica Huston), officially re-opens at Disney today! This also means I need to start making plans to get out of Colorado and into a Disney theme park so I can see it again after about 20 years of only being able to relive it through grainy clips on YouTube. Besides, who wouldn’t want to see something that combines Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas, vintage 3D, and Michael Jackson?!

Michael Jackson, Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas formed the team that brought Captain EO to audiences in the late 1980s

Disney posted this video of fans describing their favorite Captain EO memories. I think my favorites have got to be Michael’s awesome space suit, the little fuzzy alien flying out into the crowd in 3D, and the Supreme Leader’s wicked fingernails.

Sendhil Ramamurthy is back on Heroes and I’m pretty psyched about it

I was super excited to see Sendhil Ramamurthy back on tonight’s episode of Heroes. That show is bursting at the seams with hot guys (see: Zachary Quinto) but Ramamurthy always manages to be a scene-stealer for me. While watching tonight, I realized that he looks a bit like another uberhottie… Orlando Bloom.

Since many people argue that the writing on Heroes has gone down hill since the first season, let’s just focus on something we can agree on: that Sendhil Ramamurthy is a total babe.
