The Movie References / Tangled - Michael Jackson connection?« on: December 21, 2010, 07:58:11 PM »
Hey everyone!
So I went to see Tangled and there was an interesting line. It went: "I love you." "I love you more." "I love you most." I thought of Michael instantly <3 3

The Short Films & Music Videos / Visions DVD Critique« on: November 22, 2010, 10:14:59 PM »
This is all hurting my heart. First, Hold My Hand isn't performing well on the charts at all..and now this critique of Vision.
Quote Poor Michael. It is impossible to watch his collection of videos without feeling pity at this visual evidence of his self-destruction. In four and half hours of extravagant (over-) productions, you see the handsome, smiling young black entertainer of 1979’s ‘Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough’ gradually mutate into the stick thin, white scarecrow figure of 2001’s ‘You Rock My World’, his final official appearance. With sawed off button nose and painted on lips, by the end he barely looks human, and it seems peculiar the way the typically heavyweight cast (including Chris Rock and Marlon Brando) casually interact with a zombie in their midst.

Michael / Hold My Hand not doing well :(« on: November 22, 2010, 10:11:31 PM »Quote The man who co-created the new Michael Jackson single says he won't release any more of the songs they recorded together. Following the release of Hold My Hand, which failed to break the US top 20, Akon explained that the rest of his Jackson collaborations were incomplete when the singer died. "I might burn [them]," he said. "I would never put [them] out unfinished." Found here: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login 6
TMZ Discussion / Did MJ fake his death poll? Results...« on: November 22, 2010, 10:00:47 PM »
Ok so I'm confused.. I was just looking at TMZ, and did they mix up the poll, or are there seriously 70% of people that think he's alive??? That just seems odd that there'd be so many. I mean I know all of the inconsistencies, but that's a pretty overwhelming amount to think that's the case.

Michael Jackson News / Sweet article« on: November 18, 2010, 11:06:26 PM »
So I was looking through articles offered at my college and came across this one. I think it's just people that had written into the magazine, but I enjoyed them.
On June 25, the music world lost the most legendary and phenomenal entertainer of all time: Michael Jackson. The native son of Gary, Ind., gave us the most brilliant artistry for four decades ("Fans pay tribute to Michael Jackson at sites around the world," USATODAY.com, Wednesday). Jackson's works include music, dance, choreography, motion pictures, television, concerts and other forms of art. At the same time, his unique styles converged and gave harmony to the world. Jackson transformed music at the highest levels. One way he did that was through music videos, taking a song and telling a story in a film. His smash hits Rock With You, Billie Jean, Remember the Time and Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough are memorable. Thank you, Michael Joseph Jackson, for being an inspiration to all walks of life. Thank you for your selflessness, for teaching others to never give up on their dreams and for being your beautiful self. I wish you a peaceful journey. You will be missed, but Christ gained an angel. Regina M. Simmons Albion, Mich. More compassion needed As an advocate for physically and psychologically fragile children who are often labeled "social misfits," I would like to speak up regarding our collective response to the rise, fall and "resurrection" of Michael Jackson in the courtroom of public opinion. I would like to suggest that his story line might have played out differently if the collective "we" had shown more compassion. As a child of the 1980s, I was stunned to hear about the death of Jackson. I went home in a fog and told my husband, Alan, who was also deeply moved by the news. Alan suggested I was a hypocrite for being so sad after the way I "vilified" Jackson after the disturbing allegations over the young visitors to his Neverland Ranch (of which he was acquitted). Alan's comments struck me because I did judge Jackson harshly without hard evidence of wrongdoing. The only thing we know is Jackson was robbed of his childhood first by his father and then by superstardom. I am not the only one willing to forgive his transgressions and focus on his music. Jackson seemed to have it all. We put him on a pedestal. But when he developed social and psychological issues related to not only the glare of the spotlight, but also an abusive family, many of us condemned him to the world of the weird and lost our admiration for his music. Today, we are adoring Jackson and his music the way we should have all along. Perhaps if we had treated him with a little more compassion and had been less like the paparazzi that stalked him, his story might have played out differently. Heidi Kay Tarpon Springs, Fla. Jackson's art, beauty In Michael Jackson's best music and in his electrifying stage moves, he appealed to that desire in all of us to cut loose from restraints and to be truly free. At the same time, his music and dance moves were so carefully constructed. I believe the reason his spectacular performances have been loved by millions of people worldwide is explained by this principle of aesthetic realism: "All beauty is a making one of opposites, and the making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves." That philosophy was founded by the great American poet and critic Eli Siegel. So when Jackson was free and precise, unfettered and sure at once, it was exactly what we want to feel in all the moments of our lives. I wish he could have known this: that the very thing that made his art so fine held the answer to what he wanted in his own life. Kevin Fennell New York (c) USA TODAY, 2009 8
Michael's Health & Alleged Drug/Painkiller Addiction / Was Michael really on drugs?« on: November 18, 2010, 03:40:07 AM »
Hey everyone,
So I was just watching random videos of Michael and came across this one. While I don't like the way the commentators have twisted his words/actions, I think there's a point in it we should look at. Maybe when he decided to 'go away' he used the drug addiction thing because it would be believable. Clearly in this video they're saying how it doesnt seem like he has any problem. Maybe it was just convenience that a plot had unintentionally been set up prior. [youtube:220d72w3]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv9XzG2G0dY&feature=related[/youtube:220d72w3] 10
Court Case & Hearings; Discussion and Articles / Conrad Murray search warrant.« on: October 22, 2010, 05:40:16 PM »
I have a question,
I'm not sure if this has already been answered, but I was looking back at Nancy Grace covering the case, and there's a part where they're talking about how the police raided Murray's office, and Nancy was saying she was surprised we haven't seen a copy of the warrant yet.. I was just wondering if anyone has seen it? I couldn't find it. I guess my thought was that if we can't find one, maybe there isn't really one? This would be a way to set it up for the public to automatically think this man is guilty and to keep the focus on him. Ultimately, him being let off the hook once (hopefully) Michael returns. It's in this video. I forget which mark, and I have to run to work. But it's somewhere in this video [youtube:21y839ji]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tL92we7VTkI&feature=related[/youtube:21y839ji] 11
This Is It / Blonde female dancer« on: October 21, 2010, 09:28:34 PM »
Hey everyone.
I'm not sure of her name or if this is written elsewhere... but I am watching This Is It right now, and I know it's been mentioned before about them being actresses, and watching this blonde girl dance during the Smooth Criminal portion, it couldn't be anymore obvious. She is so off beat and does not look like she'd be a dancer at all. 12
Michael Joe Jackson ~ Michael Joseph Jackson / Old video stating it's Joseph« on: October 19, 2010, 01:20:14 AM »
Hey everyone. I was just having an MJ night (as usual) and was watching videos on youtube and came across this one. At the 5:28 mark the man speaking to him says Michael Joseph Jackson. I know he isn't asking Michael to confirm or anything, but Michael doesn't make any facial expression or try to correct it.

General Hoax Talk / Michael's new album..thoughts?« on: October 03, 2010, 11:58:19 AM »
Hey,
I was just curious as to everyone's thoughts on the new album that will be released in November. Do you plan on picking it up? Part of me says no - assuming he is in fact dead - because if that's the case, it obviously isn't going to be done the way Michael wanted it, and probably not to his standards. As we all know he was a perfectionist, and maybe the songs they're putting out, or the producing of them/sound isn't what he'd want. As a result, I'm not sure I want to support it, and buy it. On the other hand. I would love to have some new MJ to listen to. What about you? 15
