"Michael", a biopic about Michael Jackson, is officially happening.

That is indeed very interesting!! Many of us have been thinking in that direction anyway, but it would indeed be the first biopic to be made in two parts if I´m not mistaken.

I wonder what the total budget will be...

Plus, heavy digital treatment and prosthetics most likely means that the pictures that we have seen of Jafaar are not very representative. Meaning he will look more like Michael in the final version, no?

Wow so you actually brought this nonsense?


Okay

Time for me to log off I guess.

Exactly, the estate is multi billion dollars if those bastards at HBO can breach a contract to lynch Michael with that hit piece in 2019 then surely they can potentially take a hit to expose those lying frauds and their pathetic dad who killed himself after Michael died

The chandlers side broke any agreement already anyway since their lawyer Larry Feldman just talked about Michael to the media

I have a background as Photo Retoucher and although I didn't experiment on a photo of Jaafar myself, I can imagine that in order to make the nose acceptable, they will have to adjust other features too (interested in your view on that)

Millions would still be a ridiculous amount though

I mean it's expensive, but it's all usually part of the budget. They know the time they need to make it happen. Now if there is a problem or delays , the post production company usually is responsible. That said, they don't charge any more unless the Production asks for further adjustments they didn't agree to at the first place.
 
THE STORY IS BULLSHIT PEOPLE

The rest of the jacksons have not been on the set at all. They don't even know what the movie is going to be about.

So who are they talking about was causing tension?? Prince???

LMAO

Prince is the most passive, agreeable, amiable guy you'll ever meet. He gets along with everyone.

Once again if you believe this article you're a fool.

Do not be disrespectful!!
The two part thing is plausible, I cannot see why not.
Whether digitally working on a nose costs millions, I wouldn't know. I would say no, but then again I have no clue.

The article says that the director decided to direct from his van because of the family pressure on set. So only Prince could have done something and let's face it, that's not true.

Also, the first article said that any reshoots or over budget necessities would have to be paid by the Estate, now this new one is saying that Lionsgate is thinking about a two-part movie because of the additional costs. It has to be one or the other, can't be both.

So yeah, I don't buy any of this. When any of this info gets out on Variety or Deadline, then I'll start believing...

yes I do.

There is a thing such as a NDA

Taj has only seen a little of the movie

And Others like Austin have seen nothing.

And even if they've seen the script how does that equate to them being on the set causing tension?

Do you hear yourself?

Variety and Deadline are both anti Mj and would gladly post fake news as long as it slanders him.

Pretty sure they posted the original story that is still highly questionable and makes no sense.

Then again, Part 1 of Michael's life is also ****** tragic.. :(
Click to expand...
Yeah, people often forget how tragic the first part of his life was because Thriller and Bad were so amazing and fans were very happy during those years, but the first part of his life was just as tragic, with his horrible childhood, being diagnosed with lupus and vitiligo, and then his hair catching on fire... Those years were definitely not as good for Michael as they were for fans, he was just very good at hiding his pain so we didn't perceive it as much as we did in his latter years.

I feel like if the Chandlers sue the Estate for breaching the agreement, the Estate could counter by arguing that the Chandlers used Ray Chandler to get around the agreement. I mean Ray Chandler clearly could not have written that book on his own, it's obvious Evan was behind the book. It would be like if the Estate produced the biopic, but just didn't put their names in the credits to get around the agreement. It seems obviously unfair that the Chandler were allowed to put their whole story out there while the Estate is not allowed to tell their side of the story, just because they are honest about their involvement in the biopic, whereas Evan Chandler was not honest about his involvement in the writing of the book.

What is happening in this community? Come on! This is elephant man bones, hyperbaric chamber, skin bleaching level BS! And some "fans" on here are lapping it up!

From the very first article regarding the Chandler allegations (as if the estate had no idea about the NDA) to the budget explosion due to a prosphetic nose, these articles are nothing but laughable.

I have been a Michael Jackson fan since 1986. I've learned to live with this level of media creativity. It seems that some of you are new here and I wish you all the world of luck!

Welcome to MJ 101. Your world is about to be torn a new one 😆

Exactly, as a guy that works at VFX Productions I can assure you it doesn't cost dozens of Millions for a Digital prosthetic.

Apparently cgi moustaches for Henry Cavill would have cost 3 million:

I got the impression that they were talking about the Estate.

Let’s face it, is there any pro-MJ media journal/website?

What I mean is, they are more reliable sources. For example, they have not posted anything regarding these last articles that were spread by many others.

Um, what?!?

Care to back up your claim where you say “Jordan himself said for many years that Michael never touched him”….

Wait wait wait hold up a sec.....you think June and Dave are the ones behind the new lawsuit.....but why?????? I mean jordy left them behind to start a new life secretly without having to deal the 1993 mess. If they are behind it I have a feeling little miss Diane demon is backing them up

Now that we are talking about the allegations I always wondered about the 'KKK': Michael mentions them in D.S. and Katherine mentioned something about Sneddon's son being previously involved with the KKK. Anyone knows more about this??

The " kkk" are a gang I guess you can say that are racist assholes that hate black people

What? I have no idea who June and Dave are…
Someone made a claim that Jordy has made statements for years that his allegations were false.
I want to know if that person was just spreading wishful thinking nonsense or if there is actual hard proof of this….
 
I am not one who criticises the Estate, as the have been hugely y successful in what is their job (making money, and not necessarily pleasing fans)…..BUT, if all rumours are true they really really messed up with the Biopic.

Unless, of course, all the rumours are unfounded and this is just a hugely successful publicity campaign, but I doubt it.
 
I think there is more going on behind the scenes than is being said but they are not going to disclose most of these things. I do think this Biopic was always going to be a tough one. CGI i expect will have to play a big part with skin change color and facial changes which will also cost as they cannot expect Jafar to get plastic surgery lol. Joking aside I am a bit worried that we may not see this movie at all . I think the Estate are ( rightfully ) playing it safe but let's face it . The Biopic will be savaged by the media even if it is "excellent" . It think it will be a 3 hr movie if it does get released . I think the real problem with these delays are two things , usual frivolous lawsuits against MJ and perhaps the CGI aspect . Also there will be a lot of BS in this movie i reckon. Remember MJ was surrounded with a lot of yes men and some of them are still part of the MJ team today.
