Ok...this double thing is driving me nuts lately.
I'm watching This Is It (for the millionth time) and it got me thinking.
Is it possible that Michael Jackson himself had nothing to do with This Is It (concert and/or movie)?
I'm just trying to figure out all the reasons WHY for the doubles. What if Michael was proposed by AEG for these 50 shows (which were 10 shows originally) and he didn't want to do it? Or what if he agreed but wasn't all that into it or changed his mind once they changed it to 50 shows?
What if *they* planned to kill him if he didn't agree (I remember someone quoting Michael saying "they're trying to kill me"), but would make the whole thing into a movie if he didn't follow through and cut their losses (murder him).
Or it could have been a planned murder from the get-go.
02 dude could have kicked things off, while Mike was in his home with his kids. All the MJ's in the movie (the "rehearsals") could be doubles. We HARDLY see him without sunglasses, and when we do his hair is conveniently in his face. We HARDLY, if ever, hear him sing live. And his speaking voice is very inconsitant.
How do we know if ANY of them are the real him?
It's more probable that some of them were, and either a) he didn't cooperate fully so they killed him or b) he didn't cooperate fully because he had a plan of his own - to get them before they could get him, by hoaxing his death.
I guess I've been considering the murdery theory lately just because I wouldn't let myself even think about it before. And now I realize that even if it wasn't murder, it is important for us to understand the POSSIBILITY and PROBABILITY of him being murdered eventually for us to understand the REASONS for the hoax.
I will say though that I think I'm losing my mind...this has been my life for the past 10 months. I just pray for answers one way or the other.
