I have enough Thrillers for now. Maybe the (a?) single. Can't wait for a new album though.

elusive moonwalker
09-01-2008, 09:10 AM

Well I will try to buy the most complete Thriller 25 edition....

I already have Thriller. So I wont be buying a single copy. Buying Thriller 25 would be like supporting Michael's decision to work with will.i.am, Akon and the other here-today-gone-tomorrow "artists"/"producers" he's gotten on board with.

I cant believe some fans aint gonna buy this -_-
I cant believe some fans aint gonna buy this -_-
why can't you believe? There some fans including myself who's not buying everything that has Michael's name on it. I am buying music cause I love it and don't have it. I already have Thriller album and I don't like remixes in general

He is celebrating 25 years of the biggest selling album in history, and so he should too with such a great achievement.. He is most likely very proud of what Thriller has done as should we be as fans, I know I am :D
To me it's not about having something we already have, Which isn't true anyway it's not the same. I think he would be disappointed hearing some fans arent supporting it when after all it's mainly us he is doing this for, Also I for one would love the sales to do very well but that may not happen if everyone had the same i'm not buying the same old thing attitude :no: I guess some fans will support him 100% in all he does and some wont that's our choices.

It's not for us he is releasing albums. He release it cause it's what he does, it's his job, that's how he lives from. And that's also other's job to release them. Of course it's appreciated if fans buy it. But for me it's still the same old Thriller. I never support all those Hreatest Hits as I take it as just money making. Cover and few remixes is not changing it. And Sony is not doing anything cause of fans but cause of money and this is one more aim of releasing Thriller.
BOTDF was more as new album for me than Thriller 25. At least there was 5 new songs. Here we see there's one unheard song.... in Japanese release (not sure if For All Time was officially released or not). Somebody knows there's some fans that would buy whatever is released and they use it. That one of the reasons why different covers are released.
It's all business ;) Of course maybe Michael don't choose to have several covers so it may be not his fault and I also didn't say it is.
To celebrate Thrillers anniversary I will drink wine though :D lol

Well I do know that LOL but I do think he thinks of his fans when putting stuff out first, Then the rest of the public he hopes will like it too :D :lol:

Thriller_MJ
09-01-2008, 05:56 PM
I'm gonna be 0 copies since i have the orignal album on CD and already have the (rather bad) mixes downloaded so would just be a waste of Money i think
sfboys
09-01-2008, 09:02 PM
Deluxe set, and both of the regular ones.
Then again, who cares how many we buy. What matters is that the people buy. Especially the new generation. That is what I will be following. This could seriously sell the back catalogue if Mike sells well and does promotion on this. I'm pretty stoked myself. Can't wait to see how well this does. Guys, can you imagine Thriller back on the charts AGAIN??
Sorry but that gives me goosebumps. Back in the 80s, people were sick of it. It just wouldn't leave the charts regardless. How nice it would be to add even just a few more weeks to that gorgeous total. Woo hoo!!!!
:):):):)

One. I don't own a copy of the Thriller album, lol.
I've already ordered 4 copies on the net.
BUT I'll also go down the store and by a copy on the releaseday. I haven't been able to order the Japan version but I'll try to get that version also.
So at least 6 copies!! :lol:

i dont see the point in buying more copies than one.... yeah of course its gonna sell big but i dont need the album at all really, im just buying it because its the 25th anniversary and stuff...

Zero...I refuse to buy this. It's just another way to make money off fans. Besides I don't like any of the remixes. I think the whole project was just unecessary.

I think it was just to reach the young generation today, but then again, I think Michael can do that on his own :lol:
I'll be buying the deluxe version only I think.

I really want to get a couple of editions- I have pre-ordered the deluxe version and I'd love to have the Japanese version too! :)

A very very good question!I was wondering the same thing!:lol:
Only one copy - probably the "zombie cover" one. :)
jilliebean
10-01-2008, 03:23 PM
I think I'll buy three, one for me and one for each of my children. I already have Thriller too, but Michael worked on this project and I like to support him, if fans don't buy it the media will have a field day with that, and that may not be so good for his new album.
I'm really excited about it, I think the remixes are ok, but it's so fun that something is being released and soon. Plus I think this is just the beginning of bigger and better things!!!

I'M NOT SURE IF I WILL BUY A COPY OR NOT I ALREADY HAVE 5 THRILLER ALBUMS INCLUDING THE REMASTERED VERSIONS I MIGHT BUY THE SINGLE MAYBE. I'm not against celebrating Thriller as a project but think it could have been so much better.

every true fan should support this project. michael has put his heart and soul onto it.
show him some support at least by buying a couple of copies. is that too much to ask ?
as he says in his message he worked very hard on it only to satisfy us and we turn our backs on him saying its not good enough and too expensive?
ppl's cruelty never cease to amaze me...
CreativeMind
12-01-2008, 09:43 PM
Only one, I don't think we should give any kind of project, new material or not, a sales figure that the product doesn't deserve :) Just to show non-fans that Michael is more popular than he really is. That's just childish, "Mine is bigger than yours"....

I want to buy one of each cover but I'll have to see how much money I have at the time. I really hope I can afford them all though as it'll look good in my collection. :)
Wonder if there's new pics in the booklets? :unsure:
smooth_criminal05
13-01-2008, 03:10 AM
Umm i have already pre-ordered the deluxe edition with the 48 page booklet on Amazon. I figure that will be enough for me. When the album hits stores I most likely will buy a copy and maybe give it to a friend or my girlfriend. Also, when the new remixes hit I-tunes I will buy each one!

If you don't want it, that's fine. But I hope that people don't start dissing Michael as they have on other forums here. Nobody told you you had to buy this and frankly, it could be nothing that he's putting out, so what's the reason to complain again?

neems
13-01-2008, 11:57 AM
I'll buy the one with the 48 Page booklet I guess. Anyway, I only have one copy of the Thriller SE and it's all scratched up. :lol: So, yeah one is enough for me.
MJsPanda
13-01-2008, 04:21 PM
I know I'm definitely gonna get the deluxe one with the hard book & DVD. I might be able to get just the CD by itself too, from my Uncle.
I REALLY want the Japan version too, but I'm not allowed to order it, cause my Grandma doesn't want to use her credit card especially overseas & with the price being so high. I'll have to wait till my birthday too, which is the 19th exactly 1 week after it's released! Which totally sucks!

13-01-2008, 04:29 PM
Deluxe edition is how much? And will it sell in places like Target?

You'll be able to get it in Australia on the Feb 12th:) They're selling the standard and the hardbook.
tinker*bell
14-01-2008, 05:18 AM
I don't think I'll buy it. :(
I've just bought the Special Edition one two months ago! :rolleyes: It's still brand new... I don't have that money to waste. I'll save it for the new album! :yes:
But if it helps, I've already convinced one of my non-fan friends to buy one! ^_^
And I'll make sure to talk this idea into others. There are a loooot of young people today that hasn't had any proper contact with his work. This will be a great opportunity!
Now, about that booklet you guys are talking about... http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/finding_wonderland/eusa_think.gif
What's in it? Pictures? A message from Michael?

You are so right we all should buy this just cause michael needs us and isn,t this what we do. Please i hope everyone buys at least one.
