Captain Eo has been back in Disney parks for a couple years now.

I don't know if it's in it's original 3D format, or one of the new systems.

It's the same as it was minus some of the practical room effects.  There isn't a laser-light show on the ceiling during the movie anymore.  The chairs still move up and down and I think the big light flashes are still there, but perhaps not.

The 3D projection is still dual (quad?) film projectors with linear polarizers.  I was totally blown away by the 3D in EO in 1987.  While I was blown away by the 80's-ness of it last summer, the 3D itself was full of crosstalk (ghosting or double-image) and doesn't compare to today's 3D presentations...

Though I do hope they release it on home video.
