The Official 'Michael' Bio-Pic Thread

Oh yeah, but I meant as sharing a full HD quality bluray or HD rips etc :)
I would say the quality is good enough for eating into sales. But yeah. As soon as an official stream is available it will eat most definitely into sales. But then again, who is buying movies these days anyway? I guess most wait until it's available on their streamer of choice.
 
Considering it's the same production company as the Queen movie, which was on Amazon Prime pretty quick for free, I wouldn't count on that.
The pre-order is 25 euros on Prime:

Who's gonna pay that? :ROFLMAO: Doesn't mean it won't be for free soon for paying Prime members. Or available to rent for 99 Cents like BoRap was soon after it went to streamers.

People forget how powerful little Michael's voice was. A lady in the row in front of me was wiping tears away during the Who's Lovin' You acapella, she turned to her husband and said "he was so special"
Really well acted by Juliano and the man who plays Berry Gordy (Larenz) Great scene
You know what ..although J5 left Motown on 1976 for Epic , Berry Gordy and Suzzane De Pass were still very much in their lives..like I wanna see how he was Executive Producer of Motown Pictures and together with Suzzane De Passe Executive Producer of De Passe Entertainment in " An American Dream" 1992, a highly acclaimed and successful Two parter Nov 15th & 18th (38.4"million viewers. becoming the #1 program of the week) Television Mini Series aired on ABC..and then fast forward to 2001 Madison Square Garden (MSG) reunion with J5 Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration where Berry Gordy was in attendance in VIP Stage box with Elisabeth Taylor and Macaulay Culkin.

Given what happens in his life post 84, I cant see any of the above even being considered for a sequel.
 
Question - is the issue around including the 1993 allegations because they cannot 'dramatise' members of the Chandler family or because they can't discuss the allegations at all?
 
Dan Reed took his son to the cinemas to watch Michael the movie after shitting hard on it in the media for a week straight🤡

At least he contributed to the films success by buying tickets the piece of shit :D

Based on the comments I´ve read on every platform him crying out on his PR-tour probably backfired and made the movie even more popular!
Taking your kid to see the biopic of a man you claim to be a pedophile is certainly a choice. 😭
 
They can't be mentioned in any form. Even changing the names.
Thanks. What I was trying to work out was if actual news footage can be used (including the Evan Chandler tape) which might be a way of getting round the issue of dramatising them.
 
I was thinking about it and it would've been a much better plot if

they actually showed Motown era and then the departure for Epic. Show how everything was manufactured in Motown and they had no creative output, then they go to Epic and start getting into it, writing songs, finding the craziest choreographies like the robot dance. Then The Wiz, meeting Quincy, being free in NYC and right off to Off the Wall. And finally what the movie actually showed, which is Thriller/Victory.

That would've been a much more compelling narrative in terms of "Michael wants to break free from his father."

But they had to have John Branca star as a plot-driving character. IDK.

Love that the movie is doing great though
