This Is It Doubles????

[wendst6]

OMG are joking? That's obviously a camera filming the pressconference from the back

Yes, in the image on the right, but not the left image, which is a person behind the curtain.

As I said before, there is NO DOUBLES in this movie.
Whoever thinks the opposite, buy Blu-Ray DVD and watch it on big screen HDTV at your house and you will see that there is no doubles.

I disagree, the blue ray shows the doubles even better.  

Has anyone ever wondered why there are two types of footage in This Is It?  There's the HD footage, full screen:


and then there's the smaller, low quality footage, which is not full screen:


These are screenshots from the blue ray, and you can clearly see the difference in quality.  I tend to believe that if Mike is indeed in This Is It, he's in low quality footage, and for some reason I think that footage was pre recorded.

Mo,

I said beofre I didnt think there were any doubles. Then I thought there were...I changed my mind on this daily. Then I remembered someone saying on the old mjkit that the orange pants dude is actually one of MJ's dancers. When he is dancing, its not like MJ at all. And he looks different. younger...so now I change my mind to, YES, there is at least one double in the movie!! LOL

But how could he change his voice JUST like Michael's voice? :S

Of course they use one track when they do a split screen
you see orange pant Michael and other Michael on 1 screen but they choose the sound recording they want
edit and put it in synch
The sound is always remixed and re recorder to be good enough for theatres

I really do not know about doubles.. I am sure when the dancers were rehearsing there would be a double but they chose not to show that part in the movie

Orange pant Michael does not move like Michael but again maybe he does look like like him

When i saw it in theatre i was 100% sure it was not Michael
Now I have it on Blue ray and not so sure

just his moves are strange... but why put a double for just a few shots?

I didn't even think organge pants looked like Michael.

Let's remember also that Michael Was visiting Dr Klein during those months to reconstruct his face ... and he did look good at the end

Its been mentioned before, Klein is a dermatologist and would not construct his face - he's not a plastic surgeon.

Can you say with certainty that that was Mike himself visiting doctors?  Because I have serious doubts about that...

so the one's in the HD footage are the doubles and the one in low quality is Michael?

ALL IS MICHAEL IN TII, NO DOUBLES

I didn't say that, I said: I tend to believe...

I however am also interested in getting to know why there are two types of footage in This Is It.  Thoughts, anyone?

I hear you Venus, loud and clear, but there is absolutely NO WAY you can convince me that it's all Mike in This Is It, no matter how many times you post the same reply.
