Time for Bad Tour on blu-ray!!!!!!
Once it's done, Michael's legacy as live performer will be safe for ever.

What I believe analogue was referring to in the original post you replied to was the 'werewolf transformation' scene at the start of the Thriller performance on the HIStory tour. You'll remember the two screens joining at the back of the stage and playing various edited sequences from the Thriller video.
Like GoFlying said some time ago, hell will probably freeze over before we get a new Bad tour release considering the less-than-stellar sales of Bad 25.
I honestly think we should leave Michael's tours alone and not release any more for some time. He was a phenomenal showman, but we would be buying practically the exact same show for every tour.
Let's say the estate releases Los Angeles 1989. It will be identical to Wembley so much that it wouldn't be worth buying. A few new ad libs? Big deal. Same situation with any other tour.
We aren't getting a Bad Tour Blu-Ray. It isn't happening. Bad 25 was the chance, it wasn't done. This amazingly hyped ad for a 25+ year old concert isn't going to happen. The odd teaser every now and then on TV maybe. This is It was huge because it was actually the man himself.. People were actually going to see the man. No DVD. No Blu. Nothing. Just the man, for the first time in years. That's why it was huge.. It just isn't happening.
don't see why you're being a suck up to the crappy quality VHS! even the VHS is better quality than the "restoration" they did. and I don't think you realise that concerts don't need anniversaries to be released. Hungarian Rhapsody, no anniversary. All I'm saying is that the estate are fools if they don't release this Tour on Blu-Ray! it would do well, and I know it would. I'm not gonna say anymore cos' just disregarding any future projects is delusional. BAD Tour is there most profitable Tour. everyone knows that.
It's called accepting what we got and moving on. I enjoyed the concert, and still do. Clearly by Bad 25, the Bad Tour is not the most profitable tour. If you look at the facts and figures, the Dangerous Tour is with the Bucharest release. Disregarding future projects or being realistic in a business sense? If they failed so recently with pretty much the same thing, it wouldn't make sense to do it again straight away, when there is things people want more like studio footage.
wasn't suppose to press the thanks button. and again, the comparing sales with BAD25!! I know that with more promotion that would've sold far more than it did. sales has nothing to do with this, Bucharest had more promotion anyway and most copies were sold in 2009 when clips from that DVD were being shown on the news. their's no point in comparing sales of anything because the recent promotion has been crap.
You said it was the most profitable tour. To say something like that, you look into the figures which were very disappointing. I was only pointing out that it wasn't the most profitable tour. Dangerous Tour didn't get mad promotion. It came out just over a month after the whole world was on a witch hunt of the man. That couldn't be at a worse time. It still got to number one on a lot of DVD charts. Comparing the two at the time, which I did, Bucharest outsold Bad. Both didn't have groundbreaking promotion. Bucharest still did better. The Bad promotion was crap. So was Bucharest. Therefore, you can compare sales.
thing is, Bucharest couldn't have been in Cinemas! BAD Tour Film Reel can be!! at 4K Resolution, meaning you will see each detail in the image at bigger than human size!! Cinema release will give it more promotion an will get more people's attention and will probably make 100's millions there also! so it can make them huge profits!
Most blockbuster films don't make much more than that. It would cost hundreds of thousands to;
Locate the film
Scan the film
Clean the film
Edit the film together
Piece it for release
Release it
It would cost huge. The profit wouldn't be guaranteed to be big enough to spend that much effort and time on it when there are other easier and cheaper things to put out.
Time for Bad Tour on blu-ray!!!!!!

It would never make 100's of millions...
nah.
The highest grossing concert films have gone up to the 70 million range (Hannah Montana/Bieber/One Direction type acts).
This Is It made over 200 million worldwide because it came out very close after his death and everyone wanted to see what he was working on when he died.
A concert film from a 26 year old tour would not come close to that. Not that it would flop necessarily, but 100's is really reaching.
Yes, the Estate is still doing the project.
But it takes time and money.
I was told by a very important man that they found a rare HD quality concert material in Europe, the format is rare.
But they didn't say which stop.
So they are doing it. but not for this year.
And the 3D HIStory is for theater release.
Because he needed money, because he needed to promote his album, because Sony and his business partners pressured him to go on tour.
Do what? Have such insomnia that they are only able to sleep with propofol on a physically demanding tour?
Yeah, and despite of not singing Michael did work hard considering the circumstances. I guess he could have imagined a better "vacation" for himself than to have to sleep with Propofol every night and try to please his fans.
