Thriller 40th Anniversary

Okay so what did I miss? They took the HD versions of Thriller and Beat it off Apple and Tidal?? Any reason for this? I’m perplexed…
 
now a few days before the Thriller 40th anniversary album release i'm seriously wondering why they don't do more promotion for the anniversary release so far not seen much on tv or anything like that if you want a big hit then of course you need to do more promotion sony and the estate?🤷
 
Thriller was already remastered in 2017 so theres no excuse for being behind on any of the other films for this project.

Big 3 should have been restored months If not years ago.
 
This pretty much confirmed that they probably saw the 1st April post here. Thought about T40, made both covers in 10 minutes, got some songs from the nearest hdd, filled the gaps with released songs and probably fetched the imax remaster for thriller and the moonwalker remaster for beat it and upscaled them to 4k. Since it seems Billie Jean is still in the works. It looks like they started remastering after they saw the backlash for that crap font
As stupid as this sounds -since were talking about the biggest album ever- this would explain everything.
It just seems that album (re)releases or Video remasters are not a priority at all to the estate. Basically everything created by MJ himself seems to be less important to them.
 
I’m thinking the animated Halloween special and the mashup/remix was also part of the budget? I can’t think of any other reason Scream would require a higher budget than fan events (mediocre as they are), 4K short films, mixing/mastering unreleased songs, billboards, etc.
Let's not forget that arguably the most expensive part of the campaign, the 4K/3D remaster of ‘Thriller’, was done years ago.

It seems like MJs music hasn't been a priority to Sony since at least 1997. The Estate is basically in support of them. They have their own legacy to create they think. MJ's back catalog still sells itself really.
 
Hi everyone,

Getting excited for the T40 release!

Just figured I dare to ask. Is there someone in here from the US that is willing to help me get the Wallmart and Target releases to Europe?

Appreciate any effort!

Thnx!
 
Can they just correct all of their mistakes and get ONE thing write with this project, and that being, uploading Thriller, Beat It and Billie Jean all in 4K simultaneously across all platforms and announce it on all their social platforms the minute it goes live

Might save one single shred of credibility they have remaining with this project, idiots.

They have already lost ALL credibility

Yep, completely agree, I said the same on a post a few days back, I have no faith in them, they have no passion for Michael or his music, just to make money (MJ Musical and MJ One are superb for them, cash cows without having to do maintenance)

Hence I said "with this project" as they have lost it everywhere else and with this thus far lol

Best thing with this project: some new demos, some hq leaks, mofi vinyl, sacd, 4k videos.

It's weird that the Estate not caring about the project at all is better somehow that the whole T25 project.
 
Promotion and the Estatea (and SONYs) way of handling this project has been terrible.

But the release and the 4K videos is amazing !! - Great release/project.
The idea is amazing, the execution of it has been attrocious

Hence saying save one bit of credibility with this Friday with simultaneous uploads on all platforms and PRMOTE IT Friday

Next years project should 100% be re-release of VISION4K - That would be awesome
 
😲 I have to admit it is very hard to hide my disappointment. I feel just terrible about this news. Is this 100% confirmed by @Lotfi11k ?
I just talked with someone he made me believe him because he said he heard lot .because when he buy album he get bonus songs .i wish he was wrong but if you look at them both have 5 minute duration
