I always thought I would get excited about seeing this footage of Michael, but with a sneak peak at the trailer today, I felt sick in the stomach.

I don't know how I can feel excited about it, it's just not right.

He should be here. I still can't believe that this has happened.

Sorry to sound the way I am about the TII movie, I know a lot of you are excited about it.

Maybe I am just having a bad day. But I can't stop thinking about Michael, and seeing him in these pieces of footage only brought me sadness today, not excitement. :cry:
 
I know what you mean. Personally, I feel both excited and sad when I see the clips from "This Is It" but more sad and upset than anything. It just makes it harder to heal for me and to accept MJ's death. This was not supposed to happen. I'll never be able to make sense of it.
 
I hear you. My feelings are similar. It's more depressing and sad than anything else to think that those are rehearsals for shows that should have happened. Michael would have deserved his triumphant comeback.
 
It is depressing, you're right. That's exactly how I am feeling.

It's just not right, I still can't believe I'm living in a world without Michael, it's almost like I never thought a world without Michael could ever exist :cry:

But when I see this footage, I am reminded that indeed that world does exist :cry:

I can absolutely relate to your feelings about the TII-movie. It's way too early to feel any real excitement about it.

As for my part: Michael's death is still so new to me. I still can't believe that this has happend, either. It's challenging for me to understand how Murray was able to trifle with Michael's life the way he did - knowing well that he's a single father of three children. It's not like MJ had had a bad accident and his dear doctor has tried to do anything that could have saved his life.

Further more, there are no news on the investigation, there is no progress, Murray appears to the public eye as innocent as a lamb, Michael is still considered a freak etc. There is no justice in sight for Michael. But I need any kind of closure in Michael's case of death so badly - before I can feel excited about the TII-movie or any other article of Michael for sale. No, I'm not ready to see the TII-movie, yet.

Some of you say: "We should celebrate his life and his legacy rather than grief." But I don't feel like celebrating at all. Not right now. I don't want to turn Michael's death into a party. Celebration destracts from the tragic occurence. It's like nothing has ever happend.
I think celebrating Michael's legacy and beeing excited about the TII-movie is Ok for fans, who hadn't had any emotional connection to Michael. But for me Michael was almost like a family member. His happiness was my happiness. I've always wanted to see him happy and satisfied with his life.
 
i am excited to see it.. knowing this may be one of the last footage..

the world will see how good of a performer he was...again and again... and it will help all of those to S....... UP... about wether he could pull this off , yes or no... therefore, excited about it.
 
I can't handle anything that has to do with This Is It. Which is why I am not watching the VMAs at all. I will just be taping them. I am really crying now just by thinking about This Is It. It will be a very long time before maybe I can handle seeing anything that has to do with This Is It. But it is just way too soon for me.
 
This is it _ is now pain for me!
only pain!

of course it is great, it's mircale, it's very beautiful...
and michael is best in there...

and everything this makes it more painful for me....
more tragic, more unbearable...

same :cry:
 
I felt a combination of both. I'm just glad to be able to see this footage. I mean, this is what he was working for and putting so much into. We can see that process becasue his goal was to put on an amazing show.
 
It's mixed emotions over here.
I'll probably not see this at the cinemas, maybe if I can get tickets to an half empty show towards the night I'll go.
 
I have mixed feelings too, more sadness, because Michael was supposed to be doing this now, not on a screen like this. I wasn't even sure if I was going to watch the trailer last night, but I ended up watching it, feeling more sad.
:(
 
Absolutely not excited. Just the trailer made it all come back again. All the pain and sadness. Honestly, sometimes i wish there weren`t recorded rehearsals. Or at least not so much of it. Maybe someday i could enjoy them, i hope so, just not now. Now they are only painful to watch. They are a reminder of his passing, of his children left with no father, of his dream not fulfilled, of his voice not heard in this great show...
 
Totally understand - just watching the trailer was really hard and very upsetting, i lost it and was sobbing uncontrolably.
I want to see the movie and am looking forward to seeing Michael, hearing his voice, watching him move - but equaly at the same time i'm dreading the pain and heartache it's going to take to watch. I'm hoping to go with people from here because I'm not strong enough to go by myself.
Much love and hugs

i am glad you said that cos i feel exactly like that and thought it was just me

i thought the trailer looked fantastic, his whole vision etc but the only thing i felt was extreme sadness. i have been in floods of tears tonight after seeing it..............i don't think i will be able to go to see it when its on. its too hard:no:
 
I feel exactly the same. I was looking forward to seeing the movie, and then watching the trailer hit me like a ton of bricks. I don't know if I want to see it now.
 
Its hard to put in words how im feeling just like everyone else as nothing has sunk in about anything,my mind wont let it,im just lost and numb and empty and time hasnt helped at all, then i see the trailer and nothing i just cried like a part of me died again, to see the show that was going to happen and michael smiling i am like how can this be,nothing for me make sense its like a little part of me know wat has happen but a huge part doesnt and in my head is so messed up about everything i feel totaly messed up in the mind,dont know if i will be going to see this or not i want to as a fan of michaels but my heart is saying defferent i know watching this i will just breakdown and just go into hysterics like i did when he...............I so cant even say the D word :cry: :boohoo: x

yeah I know hun :better: :cry:

None of this makes sense to me lately...I thought I was dealing well...but I'm not at all :cry:

I am so scared to see the film, I don't know if any of you understand what I mean...I just want to hide away and pretend this is not happening..I can't cope with it now

This is NOT it dammit!!! It's not supposed to be like this...it's not fair :weeping:
 
I just can't deal with ppl who want to turn back to normal... be crazy and excited about Michael only... and saying they wanna keep his legacy this way. This is not a reproach... it's ok to me ppl do... but I'm not feeling part of it... I don't even want.

Noone is still taking responsibility.

It's frusterating me honestly. I'd rather have no show, no movie and no trailer and all that and therefore Michael Jackson still alive.

Noone is still responsible for the huge loss we've suffered.
Hey let's go back to as if nothing happened? Be positive?

I can only say I am not that way... not that far?

I mean... gosh something went so wrong!!! Michael is not with us anymore!

Well I can only repeat... I'll not support aeg nor Sony with my money not before things do not add up for me. and if that means I'll never see this movie then be it. But before noone at least admitts... yes it was us... we have a part in this... we are responsible... I simply can not accept this behavior of ppl like Kenny, like Randy Philips, like Frank DiLeo.

Michael was killed. He wasn't just dying just passing.

I just feel this now is all intended... to still go for the money.

Ppl do feed Michaelmania for that they will get money and for that interest in what really happened and why will fade. They want the old consuming and not questioning behavior and they will get it.

Just not with me.

Are those ppl already looking for the next star to wrench money out, no matter what? When will they be sad about the next death but then just go on making money?
Something was soooo wrong but ppl do act as if they have no part in it, ppl act as if they haven't done anything wrong, so they will just go on doing the same???

Honestly no reproach to anyone who wants and needs this movie and all that... I do understand really. I just can feel close to Michael without that. I'm just lucky I've seen Michael live several times... it's different to have such precious memories already in my heart I guess. I don't even really feel the need to see that movie at all. But I have so much understanding for fans who feel so emotionally addicted to everything which comes from Michael.

Just to me this feels wrong this time because this is not coming from Michael anymore... he is dead.

Even I feel responsible. I would like to ask forgiveness from the three kids and Katherine and the family. I honestly could have known better. No I didn't kill Michael. And my personal part in this is so tiny small cuz of possibilities really to do something about it to make that change... my part is maybe almost not to recognize but I do feel responsibility. Me being so crazy about the shows to come... I was worried, I thought oh gosh how is he supposed to do this... but I pushed it away for just being happy and crazy... gosh Michaelmania is the most wonderful one could get infected with... well as long as he was alive... this is really it for me. I will not go back to consuming him even in death, at least not the way no matter what.

I just feel too bad still towards Sony and also towards AEG. And this will last until ppl who also will earn money with Michael are able to admit that they did something wrong.
 
Mechi you are very lucky to have those memories, as I am too because I saw him before, but I know myself it doesn't make this any easier to deal with :(

^ This sums it up for me :cry:
 
wow really... not even Murray is behind barrs.

I'm sorry for now the movie and all that is surely not even really interesting me yet.

I totaly understand hun with the hideing bit i am going though a breakdown and that is all i do i have lost all connection with everyone honest not that i had many connections anyways and i dont have any friends but yes deffly understand why u r coming from 100% xxx
 
wow really... not even Murray is behind barrs.

^ This is the thing why it feels so wrong...are we supposed to be happy and excited when there is an investigation still ongoing...and we go to see the film, I would cry my eyes out and feel 1000 times worse than I already do ...this is not a good time for me either Mechi...and I am glad you have the same feelings as me because some people seem to think it's wrong if we don't wanna go...I did want to go initially, but not now

someone in another thread said that if we respect Michael we should see the film..wtf really?!!?

I understand your feelings but seeing how happy MJ was about this concert and how hard he worked on it. Nothing will stop me from supporting this effort to share a bit of O2 with the world. I know I am gonna be a mess. I am a mess after just seeing the trailer but I know he would want me to watch this.
 
Im going to pull through it for Michael.. its going to be very hard on me though thats for sure
