Mikafish Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I've been trying to decide if I should see it. I saw him live in 1997 and it is such an amazing memory that i don't want a "lesser" performance to taint that. That's the reason I didn't buy tickets for the new tour... I'm so torn. Waiting until I start work at HMV next week before I buy the album! Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queenie Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Saw it again tonight, for the second time. And I love it. The concert would've been so AMAZING. MJ looks good, though a little thin... and I noticed he wasn't dancing as intense as he would've at the concerts, but he didn't really need to practice his dance moves. He's been dancing since he was born.. He knows what he's dong. It was the backup dancers, and the band that needed the practice to know what MJ wanted.. Anyway, he definitely didn't look drugged up in my, or the people I went with opinions. And, his voice still amazing. make sure you all stay til after the credits because there's extra. Most of the people at the cinema already left the building, but a few of us stayed. I´m sure we all know something would happen...And it did!

Kelzy Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Most of the people at the cinema already left the building, but a few of us stayed. I´m sure we all know something would happen...And it did! yeah Btw, how did you interpret that? I don't want to give away spoilers for those who haven't seen it, SO LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT - Are you still looking?? Why are you still looking?? Stop looking!!! Anyway, my interpretation was that "This is it" and the "final curtain call" is all about that. Reappearing at the end of the credits, is in fact a curtain call. Earth Song, Heal the World, the girl, waking up to mass destruction, the earth, the lonely plant and the bulldozer. That's his real message. And, I know there's so many different opinions on how he died, if he died, etc etc, you can all believe what you will - but I feel like he was willing to do just about anything to try and get this message across to the entire world. And MJ is 100% right. Now Is The Time. We have to act and save our planet. I really hope everyone who watches This Is It takes that piece of advice home with them.

Mika4Life13 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 You´re gonna be surprised. He looked thin, but to me, he doesn´t look that sick & frail like some tabloids or some people (karen*cough*faye*cough cough*) tried to make us believe. I know the movie is made on speficic moment and embellishing the possible bad things, but, for me, it doesn´t matter. He dances amazing, he controls everything & the most important thing: his voice was on its top And it makes me sad that his brilliant idea, his show..never took place I still can't seem to fathom the idea that Michael Jackson is dead... It's just...he's like...always been there, you know? (Mind you I still find it hard to believe heath ledger is dead...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes- that part was awesome- and I loved how he put so much emphasis on that message I really want to see it again- but I'm broke. I'm going to see if they'll release it at my base theater- then I'll see it again- it's way cheaper there I still can't seem to fathom the idea that Michael Jackson is dead... Same here! It doesn't seem like he's gone. Ive seen clips , in fact I got the album last week ... with the picture booklet and all Is it worth the 16.95? I'm thinking about getting it- but I'm broke so I'd have to save up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Mind you I still find it hard to believe heath ledger is dead...) Me neither. He's one of those people that would be around forever to me. Untouchable, unhuman. It's only when it's time for them to go and it's all over the news and whatnot that we sort of remember they were more like us than we thought. Everyone's mortal.

Exactly- When I first heard he was gone, even though I didn't know him at all back then, I was in shock. Because he always seemed immortal. Larger than Life.

kaeryana Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 hi girls! i haven't been around much lately coz i was afraid someone might post a movie spoiler here and i haven't really watchded that movie planning to do so this saturday.well anyways,my brother bought me a deluxe blu-ray set of MJ DVD CLIPS! (including the memorial,which i still couldn't bear to watch to the very end,i stopped at magic johnson's speech.. ) I still can't seem to fathom the idea that Michael Jackson is dead... It's just...he's like...always been there, you know? (Mind you I still find it hard to believe heath ledger is dead...) i agree.everyone's mortal but sometimes i think it's a little unfair that good people die young.he should have at least stayed alive till his children are in their 20s.poor poor children.

Kasia_xxx Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Still about the This Is It film... I was very sceptical, especially in view of the This Is NOT It campaign but now, after watching it twice, I think that was the most beautiful tribute Michael could have dreamt of. I adored watching him in great form, vocally he was unbeatable until his last day. And... my heart is breaking at the thought that nobody will ever see this beautiful show. I'm sure he would have closed the mouths of all the disbelievers and critics with this beautiful spectacle. You are the real king, MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooner or later people are going to realize the truth. Also, it's coming out on DVD soon, right? I have faith that Michael's name will/has been restored. Hmm, this thread has been rather slow lately. This morning I was listening to Michael to distract myself from my crazy thoughts, and I couldn't stop laughing at his "hee hee"s and other funny sound effects. Does anyone know where the "hee hee" originated from? Between which two songs? I think the gasping/hiccups stem from Billie Jean, but I've always wondered about the other stuff. Any ideas, guys?

I'm sure he would have closed the mouths of all the disbelievers and critics with this beautiful spectacle.You are the real king, MJ. i had the same perception until i actually watched the movie today! it was beautiful and it was exactly the most perfect way to show how that show would've been like if it were to happen.it started off slow and plain and eventually reached the climax just the right time.some parts were funny and worth a laugh,others are just undoubted divinity,especially earth song.the little girl and the environment,that's exactly what MJ tried to tell us.HEAL THE WORLD,for the children,for God,..the audience here wasn't much of a chaotic crowd,( i'm the only one who dressed up as MJ and sang to all his songs) but they cried.they understood and i felt that the message was transmitted loud and clear.MJ was a legend and a legend never dies..

Any ideas, guys? he said it happens spontaneously,you know,it's the same concept as the 'penguin flap' move in TII during the Human Nature scene he was so into the music that he doesn't have control on his actions.i could be both dangerous and/or pointlessly delicious,LOL.the 'hee hees' happened since the 'off the wall' era.i knw he did it in a particular performance,just couldn't recall when. I bought a really awesome michael jackson dress last week Its really cool, with glitters on his jacket & socks. pictures pls...hehe.i spent my whole pocket money on my own copy of TBWKTM,MJ's limited edition TII official t-shirt,a jacket with Mj photo collage,white gloves and immitation aviator shades(gimme a break,i was broke! lol).now i declare myself bankrupted,LOL.
