OMG....Joe blaming Katherine...this is it. This is it!

[MJonmind]

There have been remarkably many connections to LMP given by TMZ, TIAI and TIalmostI. So I wouldn't rule her out. I understand their relationship lingered on for years after their divorce. A physical relationship as they had would I'm guessing be hard for MJ to get out of his system. MJ could maybe love  many women at the same time, some more than others. Only he knows...

I know I saw a list of the 7 songs of TII, in order as they are performed, some only fragments. Does anyone remember what they are? Maybe the order is significant in playing out the hoax timing too.

[Serenitys_Dream]

This song was also in the credits for TII though it wasn't actually in the movie.

It is from a 1950's movie entitled "In A lonely Place" starring Humphrey Bogart and Gloria Grahame.

In a Lonely Place (1950)
Plot Summary
Screenwriter Dixon Steele, faced with the odious task of scripting a trashy bestseller, has hat-check girl Mildred Atkinson tell him the story in her own words. Later that night, Mildred is murdered and Steele is a prime suspect; his record of belligerence when angry and his macabre sense of humor tell against him. Fortunately, lovely neighbor Laurel Gray gives him an alibi. Laurel proves to be just what Steele needed, and their friendship ripens into love. Will suspicion, doubt, and Steele's inner demons come between them?

Michael may very well have been inspired by those movies but the songs  "Put The Blame On Mame" & "I Hadn't Anyone Til You" are actually in the soundtrack credits. Yet "I Hadn't Anyone Til You" isn't in the movie. This isn't a mistake, it is a message, a clue or both.

@ Serenity

Those noir films were used in Michael's Smooth criminal, I'm sure they have a meaning. We need to dig into this for sure

Michael Jackson wake: Casablanca was beamed onto walls
The King Of Pop was a huge fan of the classic 1942 movie - and his family thought it a fitting tribute.

It came after Jacko was buried among stars from Hollywood's Golden era in a £600,000 ceremony for 200 family and friends at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Los Angeles, on Friday.

He now lies near Walt Disney and Clark Gable - and Casablanca star Humphrey Bogart.

A source said: "Bogart who was one of his all-time idols, so it seemed fitting that one of his most famous films was shown at the wake afterwards.

"There was a Rat-Pack theme with great music because Michael loved that era and we wanted to show him out with style."

So could Lisa-Marie be Gilda    

God I hope not! :lol:

Me too. I don't think Michael seriously  loved her. Maybe he liked her very much, but loved the idea of her being Elvis' daughter. Michael has an opportunity of much much better selection .

[jacilovesmichael]

I'm proud of my little investigator friends! lol! But seriously...this is great work of interpreting the clues. I think you're spot on. I think a lot of things were planned. But I also think MJ has probably thought of ideas based on other things he had planned. For example, the Gilda in TII was planned of course because of the faked death. But perhaps the two things Joe said about Katherine (mame) and being shot on stage (reason for a fake death) were thought of just recently BECAUSE of Gilda. Does that make sense? He's just giving us more and more clues in order to make it impossible for us not to believe and in order to make this into a real life movie...he's calling the scenes!

[CC]

Samsuperb, I'd say Michael never stopped loving her...

If we are been given clues based on the THIS IS IT movie, then where does Smooth Criminal come into it ?   Is it near the end of the movie ??  

 If not, what song is next

It almost feels like we are all part of a  "Big Brother" show.        Reality TV with a new twist......MJ is watching all of us..

THEN COMES THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL... "LET IT SIMMER!"
 :mrgreen:
I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE MOVIE AND THE REAL LIFE, THE THINGS THAT WE SAW... IF THIS IS IT, BILLIE JEAN IS ALMOST AT THE END AND THE MISSING LYRICS ARE:
BECAUSE THE LIE BECAMES THE TRUTH!

[CC]

smooth criminal is at the begining of the movie, around minute 25... i was thinking that maybe we have a point about the movie and the real life parallel but: REVERSED!
At the begining of the Smooth Criminal perfomance he say : WE ARE SIZELLING...
before he sing HUMAN NATURE: WHY OHH WHY... maybe next we have WHY HE DO THIS...
before THEY DON´T CARE ABOUR US..
before...SPEECHLESS
before JAM
THATS WHEN LIGHTMAN COME OUT, FLOATING ABOUT THE STAGE... :mrgreen:

I said it many times since cinema times that everything is pointed out in TII.
There are so many story layers in that movie.
It is a true masterpiece of art, creativity and thoughtfulness.

MJ's most famous dance is: ... the moonwalk
forwards or backwards?

Did anybody else wonder why Jackson 5 were included into rehearsals for an MJ stage show?
 :mrgreen:

It's all there in the movie.
