It was officially announced today that Captain Eo returns for a limited engagement to Disneyland, this Tuesday, February 23rd.  

From the official Disney Parks Blog: "While it’s not possible to replicate some special effects elements from the original presentation, it will boast a new 70mm print of the film, and it will sound better than ever thanks to acoustic enhancements made to the theater since the film last played there in 1997."  There are no plans for it to return to any other Disney park, at this point.

Rumor has it that the moving floor system from HISTA will be implemented.  No word on whether the lasers, fog or pinwheel will be back too.  For now, the run is open-ended with no set ending date set for the movie. 

Here is the original commercial from 1986 to enjoy:
