Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
It did not ship that much either. Like I said: Thriller sold 110 MIL units, but cca 70 MIL albums (68 MIL according to mediatraffic in February 2013).
units - albums, singles, music videos from parent album...

If he's going to talk to Quincy, I want subtitles.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
Who's that guy and what does he have to do with MJ or Off The Wall? I'm confused.
The Brazilian singer Seu Jorge recording with Spike Lee.
Does it have the possibility of release "Going To Rio", recorded in the album sessions?

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
The only disappointing thing to me with Bad25 doc was that Spike didn't include extra footage or extras with the DVD.
The best thing was that he included parts of that Ebony interview with Daryl. Michael relaxed and darling and talking about his own record.
This time I am praying that he includes the interview with Sylvia Chase. I watch that thing over and over. Michael on the cusp of manhood, still totally connected to his family but ready and eager and excited to jump out in his own.
He's beyond adorable.

He recorded Rock With You. One of its versions is not so good.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
^I want to see that too. Don't know about you, I really want to see a movie about HIStory... not just focusing on the album release, but the whole writing process and Michael's struggle. The whole message. Maybe it wasn't as commercially succesful as Dangerous but I think HIStory has a lot of social impact as we can witness today, almost 20 years later, people are starting to appreciate Michael's work.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
yes we will be getting off the wall deluxe package. It will include songs like 'Goin to Rio' which is expected to be a number one hit and a very early recovered version of silent spring from late '77.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
Lol, bolded is a book
haha, and nothing is confirmed! although.. in the past few days.. 19 song's have been registered with the library of congress. Including 'What You Do To Me' & 'Throwing Your Life Away' among other's not sure if this has any connection to the next project, they're probably scanning each sound cassette/multitrack/slave reel to see if they can find more 'Off The Wall' session audio.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
Well, I mean, nothing's been officially confirmed. Spike Lee's spoken about it but The Estate haven't said a single word yet.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
Can you link me to the list? How come they are only doing Throwing now I thought that was considered for Michael. If not we have known that the estate have it for a long time.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
I couldn't find it, don't know how other people possibly do.. but here's a photo that someone posted on Twitter! it seems to be the 1988 early version, so maybe they've only had the 2000's mix up until this point?

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
I'm not saying it's definitely fake (I wouldn't know, I don't really look into this stuff) but it does seem weird they haven't properly capitalised the song names? Plus the first two screenshots have the artists name in the title but the third one doesn't? Seems odd for something like this...

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
So you don't actually know if the estate have recently registered a bunch of songs, you just have screenshots of one song from someone on twitter?

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
The source who tweeted this said that 19 song's were registered in the past 48 hours, he only showed 3 screenshots! i couldn't find the registrations myself.

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
if you look to the screenshots you will see that the registration date for those songs are 4/ 28/1982, 10/28/1985 and 9/26/1988. Plus that they are on "sound cassette" should be enough to show that it's not recent. So while those songs are registered I don't think the registration happened "in the past few days".

Spike Lee Talks About His New Kickstarter Film, Off The Wall Documentary And Other Projects
Posted on January 15, 2015
What’s next for you?
Well, currently I’m in production on a documentary on Michael Jackson’s album, Off the Wall. I’m in post-production with a feature-length documentary about Brazil called Go Brazil, Go! I’m executive producer on, and presenting, one of [my] student’s films, which is called Cronies. The world premiere is going to be at Sundance, the director’s name is Michael Larnell. And I’m writing and teaching. Working!

Re: Spike Lee announces Off The Wall Documentary
It's confirmed then, thanks Annita. I hope Spike focuses more on Michael (showing more behind the scenes in the studio, short films), it was a good idea showing archive footage of Quincy Jones, nowadays he hasn't anything good to say about Michael and his bitterness pisses me off. And it'd be better not showing people who had nothing to do with the record, like in Bad, Spike interviewed JB, Mariah Carey, etc, I didn't see the purpose to include them.
