The public has spoken. They still like Mike.
>>220075304King of Pop. That doesn't change. Shamon with skydaddy, my dude.
>>220075304You can think whatever you want about the diddling shit but the movie is objectively bad. Not sure why they didn’t just remaster a bunch of old concert footage because that’s all this is.
>>220075871We already have a movie for that called Moonwalker
>>220075304I guess Janet just doesn’t exist in this world.
>>220075304What was the old MJ movie? I watched that in a cinema with my mom and it was nice.

>>220076609This is outdated thinking. Nobody goes to the theater without already having a movie in mind to see. Who drives to a theater and just buys a ticket to whatever is available?
>>220075304Truly, a movie to compete with such cinematic masterpieces and Minions and A Minecraft Movie.
>>220075304All the molested children and the truth also lost

>>220075304>The public has spoken. They still like Mike.Just Blacks and GenX soccermoms, neither of which wanted any pedo shit in the movie.
>>220076769Haven't seen this for so many years
>>220075304i mean, he did make Thriller.
>>220075304Even aside from ending the movie before the pedo shit started it’s just such a shallow, whitewashed look at his upbringing and life. His character is extremely one-dimensional and you don’t really get a sense he went through any struggle or adversity beyond his asshole dad giving him the belt sometimes.
>>220075304>movie ends in the 80sAre they going to do a sequel or really just skip over all his weird shit?
>>220080064They’re not gonna touch the diddling stuff. Even if they wanted to portray him as an innocent victim of false allegations there’s just too much weird shit from his later years they’d have to ignore to avoid the estate suing the shit out of them
I just got out of itHonestly, I was really impressed by the production value. The movie sounds and looks as well as you can imagine But also the screenplay was hot garbage. I expected that so I wasn’t disappointed at all
>>220075304Jackson is talented enough that his music and persona transcends his controversies, people just don't care
if they made him a CGI monkey, would it still have succeeded?

Do Gen Z even like MJ or did they just go see it because everyone else is
>>220075304OWWW!!!
>>220079631Thriller is literally the best pop album we will ever see. It is never going to be surpassed.
>>220081646Yeah but pop is a lesser genre of music, so it has been eclipsed already by superior albums in better genres.
>>220080207How did the handle him turning from black & white?
>>220081795they showed a bit of his white spotsand then the movie ended with to be continued
>>220075304The whole flick was a character assassination of Joe Jackson he was just a based dad looking out for the family and trying to beat the gay out of MJ but his cunt wife kept getting in the way
>>220075871Almost all music biopics are bad,, really. All follow the same formula:> Young musicians dreams of becoming a star.> A mentor tells them how https://www.theguardian.com/news/ng-interactive/2026/apr/26/bad-movies-good-business-how-sanitised-biopics-became-a-hollywood-stapleTo use the music of an artist you need the cooperation of the artist or the artist's Estate. That means any biopic is immediately constrained in what it can portray. A biopic about an artist without said artist's music ends up being doomed to failure.Not just the Michael bio-pic, but also the Freddie Mercury, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and Bob Marley bio-pics, were all hagiographic. Musicians are fundamentally un-cinematic. Ironically the Robbie Williams bio-pic was more honest and more creative than any of its recent contemporaries...and /tv/ hated and sneered at it. Williams and Elton John are far certainly more honest than their American counterparts.Music documentaries, such as Get Back, EPIC, etc, tend to be far more illuminating than any bio-pic.
It’s cute and quirky being in the Epstein files. Niggers love seeing humble beginnings
>>220082017Missing bit of my post:> Young musician person.> A mentor tells them how fantastic and special they are.> They become huge.> They have personal struggles etc.
>>220076297>>>/pol/>>>/trash/>>>/lgbt/
>>220075304I'm still gonna see it but it's a bummer that it's not a good movieunfortunately you can't make a good biopic of a musician until they're dead for like 50 years. as a third party can't piss of the rightholders or they won't let you use the songs in the movie
>>220082180Music biopics are made to keep musicians within the public consciousness as celebrated icons so their handlers can continue to profit from their work. It’s the sole reason. It’s why we’re not getting serious, dramatic movies about Michael Jackson or Freddie Mercury, just bare bones pop concert movies that keep the fans happy
>>220082017Yeah there were parts of Rocketman that were worth watching, all the other musician biopics I’ve seen have been abysmal shit. The Marley one was really fucking bad.
>>220082017>the Robbie Williams bio-picWho?
>>220081646Purple Rain is better
>>220076297This post got Unit 8200 absolutely SNEEDING lmao

>>220081912> Michael Jackson Will Return in Avengers Doomsday.
>>220083749Michael Jackson is a charismatic pop culture icon and pedophile with a vocal and diehard fanbase that stuck around despite the irrefutable proof (as no matter how much they try to focus on his shitbag father, Jordan's testimony remained consistent and accurate in details up to and including details of Michael's penis), as he had been able to successfully deflect any attention regarding such to another group of prominent pedophiles.Based on this, MJ likely would've been President.
>>220083749Part of me thinks he might have turned the corner and become more normal.Another Part of Me thinks he would have got weirder, and the hostility toward him would have deepened and he would have become increasingly absurd.One thing I find funny is that Jarvis Cocker, who sabotaged Jackson's performance at the 1996 Brit Awards, was a big admirer of Jimmy Saville.
>>220075304The only good music biopic is what’s love got to do with it & that’s only because of Laurence Fishburne playing Ike Turner
Got back from it about an hour ago.It's not the greatest bopic ever like audiences say nor is it the second coming of Caligula like critics say, but I was pleasantly surprised. Jaafar is so flawless in his impersonation of and physical resemblance to Jackson that it's really one of the very few movies to where I felt like the subject matter was somehow resurrected from the dead on screen in a way that CG nor another actor could've done. Domingo was surprisingly fantastic as Joe in a refreshingly zest-free role that showcased a lot of range, and the tension between the two really drove the film and made it work. It was also fun seeing Mike Meyers in something for the first time since the Love Guru.The concert and dance sequences were really incredible and reminded me a lot of the remastered Elvis concert film that came out recently, albeit with cinematography that really brought the whole thing a new dimension. It was mystifying whenever these scene happened and the filmmakers knew. It truly gave you a sense of MJ's immense power as an artist/performer and what he represented, and that impressed me even going in and expecting that to be the highlight.Problem is obviously that the story is thin and the script on the nose and super sanitized, but that's to be expected given it's an estate project. It's very old Hollywood, Jim Thorpe All-American in that regard, but I also can't deny that it really gave me a sense of the incredible power of Michael Jackson and truly brought him back to life organically, and that's a pretty remarkable achievement given this thing easily could've been laughably shit judging by the production hell this went through.Question is whether the sequel will be more of the same or a hilarious trainwreck, either way I'll be watching which means the filmmakers succeeded.
He is innocent he was acquitted in the trials Americans clearly cant read they dont even investigate the history of their own idols Donald Trump is the one you should be going after he is what Michael wasnt
>>220084638That is a top 20 performance in film let alone biopics.
>>220075304Movie doesn't touch on the pedo accusations or the years it consumed the publics attention, every fucking thread is about the pedo shit
>>220084105I feel like he would've been the pop music equivalent to Kanye in the sense that he'd have lengthy bouts of schizo breakdowns and insanity punctuated by brief bouts of lucidity. He probably would've still been super popular for this reason alone even if he'd obviously taper in popularity. I imagine his reactions to the rise of trap would've been interesting too, I could easily imagine something like an MJ/Pi'erre Bourne collab.
>>220076769is he okay?
>>220084863Stable in the grave
I will say one thing that bothered me about the movie was the scene at the Victory tour where Michael told off Joe didn't include any music from Victory. Which is a shame, because either Torture or State of Shock would've been great songs to see performed and would've made the scene perfect:https://youtube.com/watch?v=0e2OiRS50aE&https://youtube.com/watch?v=B51442pIEV0&
Bubbles the chimp is still alive and apparently pretty happy in the Center for Great Apes in Florida.
>>220087686>is still aliveWTF it's true, I had no idea chimps could live in captivity nearly as long as people. Makes sense I guess.
I assume this is like that Queen one where the critics were mad it didn't show enough of the shitty parts and the audience didn't want them in the first place
>>220075304217 Shamillion dollarsHEE HEE
>>220087686At least they are not Jewish
>>220082017>/tv/ hated and sneered at itIt's not that we hated it it's just that nobody outside of Britain knows who he is other than the skinless music video guy.>Music documentaries, such as Get Back, EPIC, etc, tend to be far more illuminating than any bio-pic.True (Elvis especially, the contrast between EPiC and that piece of shit biopic are night and day) but there's been some great ones you're ignoring, Control and 24 Hour Party People come to mind.
>>220088275Of course they are homosexuals thats why they hate Michael
>>220075304reddit hates this movie. that's how you know it's good
>>220084764it shouldn't. pedo hysteria has gone too far.
>>220075304A biopic about the guy who said, "Jew me, sue me" and "Kick me, kike me" is getting shit on by critics? Huh. That's odd.
>>220076297>h-he said "kike me"...? omg!! heckin based! based and redpilled! he named da joo!! based michael!!!kys
>>220075871Yeah, I wish there was more focus on the man himself, rather than just his performances. Felt like I was watching a tribute/impersonator show most of the time. I'm guessing they didn't want to infer too much on stuff they weren't privy to. Obviously nobody knew for sure what was going through Michael's head at the time. Still it felt pointless dedicating so much time to recreating stuff that we've all already seen a million times before by the real MJ.
>>220088946stay mad moshe. this film is going to make a billion dollars
>>220075304Israel spent millions of American tax payer money trying to slander this film all because Michael didn't like them.
>>220075304Modern critics are mostly autistic manchildren. They alredy lost years ago, when they were still kids.
Imagine defending a gay pedo nigger. Hollywood producers who funded the movie are jews themselves.
>>220089305imagine voting for one
>>220082804>All very clearly "asiatic">Eastern EuropeHmmm actually on second thoughts maybe you're right lel
>>220082548YOU KNOW WHO HE IS YOU LYING COCKSUCKING FAGGOT. I'M A HOUSEHOLD NAME, HE WAS IN TAKE THAT, EVERYBODY KNOWS HIM
>>220075871Eh its alright. Seemed like they watered it down and cut so much shit. Judging by behind the scenes pictures and stuff they filmed a ton more with Jackson 5 stuff and Bad era.
I thought IMAX movie were supposed to be high quality. Mine just looked like a regular movie but a bigger screen. Why arent they making fucking cameras for movies now ALL imax ones. Surely they can invent that by now.
>>220084105I wish we could have seen that. I think he would have become more confident if he completed This Is It tour. Like probably seeing him at (retarded) fashion shows in the audience looking cool as fuck.
>>220085936Yeah I was hoping for more Victory tour stuff but Human Nature was kino.I was hoping they would include thishttps://youtu.be/P4HDEbJIFSs?si=CC0pojDwEiEr94Mr
>>220089723If you can't tell the difference between standard and IMAX you need to get your eyes checked. You've been spoiled by HD screens
>>220089790imax shill. how is highguard?
>>220084764>Movie doesn't touch on the pedo accusationsSequel is confirmed bro
>>220084764Apparently it was actually due to Jordan Chandler himself, not the Jackson Estate's fault. Part of the settlement conditions back in the day was that Chandler couldn't be mentioned or put into any movies. Obviously they could have maybe went into other allegations if the biopic went beyond the time period it did, but it did not.Likely the family realizes that later life MJ is a weirdo eccentric at best and, as some kikes ITT are saying, a child rapist at worst, so it made more sense to have a movie that highlighted the best of MJ and ignore the stuff that is arguably not even true or misconstrued.
>>220084863yes
>>220075304I called him Mike Hidds.because he fucked my kids.
>>220082017>Musicians are fundamentally un-cinematicno you're retarded. the movies are shit because musician biopics MUST get approval from copyright holders of their songs otherwise they're not allowed to put them in the movie.Any competent writer or director could make a kino musician biopic but without a single song of their then what is the fucking point?
>>220089769>>220085936>didn't include any music from Victorythat's acurate. the victory tour didn't feature any songs from the album
>>220088946The Anti-Defamation League on Wednesday demanded an apology from Michael Jackson after ABC aired what was said to be a telephone answering-machine message in which the pop star referred to Jews as “leeches.”Michael Jackson has an anti-Semitic streak and hasn’t learned from his past mistakes,” ADL director Abraham H. Foxman said in a statement. “It seems every time he has a problem in his life, he blames it on Jews.”Jackson infuriated Jewish groups in 1995 when his song “They Don’t Care About Us” included the lyrics “Jew me, sue me, everybody do me, kick me, kike me.” Jackson apologized, saying the lyrics were meant to demonstrate the hatefulness of racism, anti-Semitism and stereotyping. He then changed the lyrics.A transcript provided by King’s office quotes Jackson as saying: “They suck them like leeches. ... They start out the most popular person in the world, make a lot of money, big house, cars and everything and end up penniless. It’s a conspiracy. The Jews do it on purpose.”https://www.today.com/popculture/jewish-group-demands-apology-jackson-1c9482482

>>220094710Do boomers not understand how famous MJ is that even zoomers like him?
this is wrong. Michael raped the children. Why don't we just make a fucking movie about D4vid too thengod damn man. motherfucker just sings and dances for you people and you get dazzled enough to forget about how he's a disgusting monster

>>220075304The jews paid the critics to hate movie. ahaha
>>220088946Shalom
>>220081912
I'll never understand this need to have the approval of critics. I don't watch movies for a living, so unless they shit all over themselves, chances are the film is fine and especially fun for MJ fans.
>>220094710>Do zoomers not understand how famous MJ was?Zoomers have singlehandedly revived MJ's reputation and popularity. He's more popular on streaming than the vast majority of newer artists and 58% of the audience according to postrak for this movie were Zoomers.Believe me when I say that MJ has still got it and likely always will given he's a truly timeless icon at this point. Even my young alphie Brother who is kind of dumb is a massive Michael fan.

>>220082017>Ironically the Robbie Williams bio-pic was more honest and more creative than any of its recent contemporaries...and /tv/ hated and sneered at it.That was less about it being bad and more about disliking how some literally-who non-celebrity was being touted as if he mattered.>INB4 "He's famous in the UK."The fact that he's a distinctively british personality with 0 clout outside of Bongistan makes people want to shit on him by default, because that means he's not "Robbie Williams," he's not a "celebrity," he's not a "musician," hell, he's not even a "person," he's "that british guy nobody has ever heard of."They don't see him as a person, they see him as a representative of a foreign culture that's widely mocked, hated, and actively collapsing. The movie failed purely because Americans--along with basically every other culture on the planet--dislike the UK and have contempt for their country and their culture.Robbie Williams specifically doesn't matter, nor did the quality of the movie. People just actually hate the UK that much.
>>220101449most people do not spend all day thinking about the jews, believe it or not

>>220081553>Do Gen Z even like MJYes. His death was probably the first major happening we all remember.>or did they just go see it because everyone else isIt's because it's an MJ movie, not because it's popular. The reason this movie blew up was because of pre-existing Zoomer fans of MJ given his cultural status.>>220101449>It is a protest against the jewsAlso this. Ironically MJ's controversial/conspiratoral side has probably helped him remain relevant and interesting. The anti-J angle definitely helps even if it's inaccurate.
>>220102308>sanitizeAs if all the other dozens of singers biopics these past years were anything other than fluff jobs. Bohemian Rhapsody comically downplayed the heavy drugs use and sex parties. A Complete Unknown also pretended Dylan wasn't a drug head. Elvis sugarcoated his relationship with his wife. One Love turned Bob Marley into Jesus. Maestro went out of its way to turn a interesting life into the blandest Disney version possible.
