From what I understand the fiscal year of 2028 means September 26, 2027–September 30, 2028: https://www.britannica.com/money/fiscal-year

It's normal for the press to attend a screening where they're shown a collection of clips from a movie. The Victory Tour scene was probably the final scene of the bunch shown during that screening and that's why she was referring to it as "the final scene".

After the latest comments pretty much confirming part 2 and the mention that this part 1 will leave you wanting more….

It’s now got me convinced the Victory tour scene is the ending of part 1 and the shock on Joe’s face like we’ve seen in the still.

The Bad tour performance will be at the start only and the last song we hear will be shake your body.

Pretty awesome that they are still planning a second film. Seems it has been getting positive responses so hopefully it does well and they can start work.

They were always planning it. And all the mainstream sources you all trusted and believed 100% when it came to the chandler claim have been saying there will be a part 2 for months, but you don't believe that, but you blindly believe the ridiculous claim about the chandlers

make it make sense
 
This should not be a spoiler so let's just get this out there.. The movie goes beyond the Victory tour, it ends in the timeframe where most are expecting.


Now, how it ends is where would throw people off. Not storyline wise, but the teaser and trailer gives an impression of something that makes people expect something that they'll actually have to wait for. Vague I know - but I must.
 
It's obvious it goes beyond Victory and Bad as the early promo picture shows Jaafar in the MITM outfit from Dangerous.

i just hope it's not a Bohemian Rhapsody repeat, with Bad concert opening and ending the movie. what concerned me watching the trailers was how much the plotline seemed a copy + paste of Freddy quest for independence in that movie
 
I wonder if the movie will be 'woke'..?

With todays identity politics there is also a danger for the truthfully aspect of MJ's story: that MJ, Joe and The Jacksons will be merely portrayed as a victims of racism and capitalism. While MJ was actually trying to transcend racial barriers and his legacy is that of someone who drew inspiration from all sources

If that was the only similarity with Bohemian Rhapsody I'd be delighted tbh....

re-reading this, i feel like you are hinting a cliffhanger. like we possibly see Michael entering the stage of '88 concert and that's where the movie ends? all those bad performances are actually postponed to a second movie. It would explain why the marketing so far has delberately kept musics and posters pretty much Thriller era.

It would disappoint me to have to wait again for that MITM scene so much revered so I hope I am not guessing right.
 
If it’s so obvious a cliffhanger and if they are really using promo material for the first movie that will only be seen in the second movie they should REALLY start driving home, that this will be a two parter.
Because otherwise they will get the wrath of the audience & media - and rightfully so..

I mean it’s one thing to have a second part, when the first movie is somewhat self contained, meaning it has somewhat of an ending (chapter closed).
But not telling the audience there will be a second part going in & then having an open end is ass.
Using promo material that isn’t in the movie would be bordering fraud.
 
Everything that I wanted from a Michael Jackson movie looks like it won’t be coming until a part 2.

This first film? Michael aka An American Dream 2.0

That Bad performance we keep seeing will be from the opening scene and that’s it …it will go all the way back to the start.

Part 2 will open with the BAD era and continue on from the first performance of Bad through to whatever era they go to

Eh? Are you against a new MJ album with 10+ new tracks?! Because you think they will be fake?

someplace_else said:
Not sure about that...I think nowadays, especially younger people do ask more questions and don't just believe what the media or other people say.

Honestly, it would be like an OJ Simpson movie that ignored his trial, or a Matthew Kelly or William Roache movie that did the same. There would be something amiss.

Some are expecting way too much in terms of promo.

Seems like some people think everything MJ-related has a god-given right to win awards and break all known records, and if it doesn't, the only possibility reason is "the company didn't promote it enough".

When they release the final trailer
Click to expand...
I just don't understand why people are obsessing over trailers. Why does it need another one? There have been loads already, isn't that enough, lol. You realise after release, nobody will remember or care about how many trailers there were, right?

im convinced some of the "fans" on this forum want the biopic to fail and they are in fact giddy and gleeful at the thought of it.

You being so passive-aggressive all the time is funny as ****.

lions gate confirmed part 2. So you insufferable people can stop saying there wont be a part 2
Click to expand...
Until Lionsgate confirm part 2, then part 2 is not confirmed. That's literally the default position that all sensible people have to adopt. Why does that make them "insufferable"?

Yeah, that is what makes modern movies so shit.

Victorious said:
What would be the problem if the early days would be a upgraded rehash of 'The Jacksons: An American Dream'? That was a good show
Click to expand...
Just that it's redundant, I guess. But maybe it is important to show the origin and the transition from child to adulthood.
