Thriller 40th Anniversary

Other than the 16mm negatives, I don't think they have any other potential upgrade in quality available for the Billie Jean video.
However, they could give us fresh digital transfers in the max quality possible of the OTW videos. SD BluRay releases prove that DVD quality is not the best possible for SD footage.

I do not understand why why haven't got a premiere date of the Thriller doc. - We was told it would be broadcast in January, and it's now January 10th - and still we haven't heard a thing. I doubt it will be released this month. If they wanna build up a little hype and release teasers and trailers, I think the doc will be premiered in February or March. - I hope I'm wrong of course. But I really do not understand why we haven't heard anything.

Also I hope it will be made available on Blu-Ray like BAD25 and the From Motown to your town doc...

I doubt it'll be released at all. They aren't going to say anything. Time will just go by. Watch & see
 
Sadly, if they weren't going to include BJ remaster with Thriller & Beat it then I doubt its happening at all now. Hope I'm wrong though.
 
hope billie jean 4k, along with 4k preformances of human nature, wbss, billie jean and beat it from the victory tour come out too.

will say that the effects on billie jean definetally are not hard to recreate, but the issue might be that adding the extra quality might make the video look cheap as hell.
 
Please no more thriller anniversary it is enough 25 and 40 better want dangerous and history or blue ray all short films hd

won't be surprised if remastered Billie Jean video will be published on March 10th, which is 40th anniversary of this short.

That's right. The video was put March 10th, the song came January 2nd. I didn't realize the distinction for some reason. That makes much more sense, yeah.
 
I even doubt the documentary will come this months.. we are half in and there is zero info or promo..

I would even not be surprised if they simply don’t release/show the documentary. They did same with thriller 3D in 2017..

I agree, the 4K Munich really changed the experience and all, but Victory is superior. I hope the film is not unusable or lost in 10 more years and they end up releasing a VHS rip or sonething.

Dude, relax. It’s entirely possible that the documentary just isn’t ready yet. Setting aside the negativity surrounding the estate, this sort of thing happens all the time. Projects begin, they need revisions, legal/logistical things preclude it from being released on time, so on and so forth. It’s disappointing, but how about we wait and see what’s actually going on?

This is known as "Demo #3", the Westlake demo.
The other 2 are his home demo (officially released) and his home studio demo (Demo 2).

How is this the west lake demo when the "2nd demo” sounds way farther complete than this one

It's prob the next project on the estate's list, it's most likely the easiest and cheapest show they can remaster, considering how the footage was recorded and how scripted the show was.

Someone asked branca on the next concert release a few years ago and he mentioned munich. Luckily he hasn't followed through with that yet.

well it was supposed to be released in 2020, but due to LN that didnt happen. they most likely have it completed and are waiting for the right time to release it, all guess work though.
 
T40 store staff said they were going to be re-releasing the Thriller short film jacket too, but I don't think we ever saw that. Seems like with this, Keen's 5 short films in 4K thing and a few other posts they had more/other things in store that didn't happen or haven't happened just yet.
