The Official 'Michael' Bio-Pic Thread

I peeked in the Leaving Neverland subreddit and saw them rejoicing that the public conversation seems to be leaning in favor of viewing MJ as guilty, all because there are a few popular tweets and articles painting MJ as guilty. Never mind that “Thriller” reached the top 10 last year for the first time in four decades, the Broadway show is a monumental success and is actively touring, and the biopic is set to break opening weekend records.

Those people live in an alternate reality lmao.

They are so delusional 🤪🤪
The people in the Movie subreddit thought that the movie would flop and wouldn't be a success and the result is that the film is crushing the box office at this moment.

In a historic milestone for the biopic genre, the long-awaited Michael Jackson film has set new records both domestically and internationally. This Friday, it became the first biopic in history to hit $100 million worldwide on its domestic opening day.
Domestically, Michael opening day delivered an even more impressive feat by earning over $40 million, the highest-grossing opening day ever for a biopic. This figure (which includes previews) eclipses the domestic opening day of every other biopic ever released.

The strong performance highlights Michael’s ability to connect with both longtime fans of Michael Jackson and a new generation of moviegoers drawn to the larger-than-life story of one of music’s most iconic figures.
