Thriller 40th Anniversary

the past two documentaries were shown on the bbc💜 - which I was able to see. unfortunately due to the brief profanity, it was shown after watershed, limiting its audience 🙁 I really hope this isn’t a problem for ‘thriller 40’, for many reasons..

That will most certainly be a problem given Landis’ Mickey Mouse impression (yet another reason to cross off Disney+ or ABC or Hulu). Arguably one of the most memorable moments! The whole theatre was in stitches!

That wouldn't bother Hulu at all technically.
 
I hope for some official statement soon.
I hope they make it available for all/many countries to broadcast. The Estate has made the doc - they can only have interest in the doc being showed to as many people as possible. It's a positive doc regarding MJ's music. - People will wanna buy MJ songs after seeing it.

Release it already !!!
 
It's confusing that not a word is said about the thriller documentary, it was very disappointing with the thriller40 project
 
i think thriller 40 got cucked by the estate itself and miscommunication between them and sony.

i believe sony wanted to go full on in advertisement and push with the album and celebration, but the estate wanted this to be a quiet release, which led to the very confusing release we've had.

i also think the brad leaks has postponed/cancelled the thriller 40 doccumentary, as alot of footage got leaked out and i dont think the estate wants to release any new footage for a good while because of it.

I agree about the miscommunication, but I see no reason to cancel the docu over that Brad stuff. They're just choosing to wait a while for some reason. If anything, it's the catalog interest sell, maybe they're trying to make something happen there, since the Doc would be one of the things any partner would receive revenue in, and therefore have a vested interest in promoting and supporting.
 
I just hope we get to see this doc.

It is so late now I would think it embarrasing if it was connected to the 40th anniversary. - I hope they just sell it as a stand alone doc about MJ and the period around (and the making of the album) Thriller.
 
I don't mind if they scrap the doc I just want to see the glorious 4k footage of the Victory tour :love: . Or sell a deluxe package with a Victory tour concert for those who want it.

I know right! It can never be that easy, always has to be a bunch of nonsense controversy and drama thats just what it's like being an MJ fan. Hopefully future generations won't have to deal with all of it and get to actually enjoy the legacy MJ left behind. Sadly I will probably be long gone before it happens 😞 .
 
It'll drop somewhere and they won't say anything about it. I'm just interested in seeing the new footage anyway, don't care about how much celebrities love Thriller.

Hey atleast we got like 12 seconds of leaked footage from the Victory tour on film. Nevermind that the estate probably have countless hours of film footage from that tour just sitting in a vault. Then again knowing the estate they probably don't even know where the footage is located, even though Nelson George found it. But hey who cares right? It's only footage of the greatest entertainer ever at the peak of his fame , who could ever want to see that footage?! Might as well just let it degrade further for a couple more decades.

his estate deemed some footage unusable but they don't want to work with those he collaborated with. Michael filmed an entire documentary for Bad and we've only seen bits and pieces......Victory is tougher because of the brothers involvement.......it comes down to money and I'm sure they don't want to be screwed out of anything.
 
I think i was never more disappointed in the estate then in 2022/23
