How come you wanted "Don't Be Messin' 'Round" to be finished by Quincy Jones after all he has said about Michael, yet you're against Sheryl Crow appearing in the Bad 25 documentary? That seems hypocritical to me.

Yeah, maybe it is little hypocritical. But I respect Quincy (his work) too much. He is essential for this documentary and Sheryl is not in my opinion.

Quincy did say awful things too, but I would still prefer that he finish Michael's work from the '80 than McClain or any other producer.

There was a classic album series that was shown on the bbc (they were reshowing black sabbath paranoid last week). Checked the other albums in the series, not one mj one. BBC 1 recently had a documentary on 25th anniversasry of Graceland and i remember a documentary on itv when Wing's Band on the run was re-released a couple of yrs ago. So one of the major channels better be picking up Bad25. If they can commission documentaries on mj's plastic surgery and his lesser known relatives looking for a holiday home in devon, they can damn well buy this one.

It was a great move to get spike lee to direct it - he has alot of credibility- and it's also a good move to get alot of 'hot' names in music right now to do guest spots - should make it more attractive to tv stations.

Fingers crossed! :yes:

I don't agree. But it is Spike's documentary and he decides.

You don't like her because she was honest and had an opinion on the guy at some point?
All she said basically was Michael forgot her name one night and she felt sorry for him being trapped in this celebrity bubble.

Meanwhile, a woman-beater is in this for some reason. Do you think they should cut out Chris Brown, too?

Sheryl was part of the Bad tour and she became a big celebrity in her own right, so of course she's an interesting person to talk to.
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

I hope there's some BTS footage of Dirty Diana. I feel that's the one video where I've never seen making of or production stills of.
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

Can't wait for this. You just know when it's Spike Lee it's gonna be incredible. I would love if this was included in the deluxe case on blu ray as an extended longer version than the TV version. It would really make the deluxe case special.

I don't like her.

Hahaha "woman-beater". I couldn't care less about him. I like some of his music. And I think he is 1000 times better than Rihanna. But he is just a fan of MJ, has nothing to do with Bad album and he never met MJ or worked with him. So in my opinion he should not be in the interview, just like Bieber. But it is Spike's documentary and he decides who should be and who should not be in his documentary.

Personaly I would do it without current stars but anyway I think it will be the best thing released since This Is It.
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

Oh that was exciting to see the different angles of TWYMMF. We got to see MJs cute lil booty walking lil longer haha! I can't wait to see what other footage this doc will have!:wild:

When Michael passed away BBC 2 showed the bucharest concert & a culture show documentary on him, they showed that Foo Fighters: Back & Forth before it came out on DVD it would'nt surprise me if they show the documentary and the Wembley DVD

I agree with you, they should pick up this documentary.
I think the reason we haven't seen much Michael on telly is because there haven't been this kind of documentary made before about Michael creating his music. They'll be foolish not to buy it as TII was international success, this could be nearly as big.
I hope this is just a start for series of documentaries of Michael:wild:
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

I'm hoping for a UK showing. They didn't want to show anything that was positive for MJ, i.e Take Two or Private Home Movies. It wasn't rushed to get broadcasted by a multiple channels. It really is deserved for MJ to get a better showing in the UK, I'm always hearing of other countries getting Munich, MSG etc and yes it's stuff we've seen 1000 times but it's still nice to see on TV.
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

BBC One showed Dangerous in Bucharest and Channel 5 showed 30th Anniversary in 2009 (I think it was New Years Eve) so I'm hopeful that one of them will air this documentary.
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

If they wanted to make me more anxious than I am they succeeded with this teaser! hahaha

one question Tatiana was interviewed for this documentary?
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

I am looking foward to this. I know it's about the album and the music but I hope people will see Michael as a human being. See how hard he worked and the kind of person he was. I think that is important.

I am curious about this too, but there have been no write up that include her name as an interviewee. I wish I could take a peek into Michael's vault!! Let's hope no unauthorized people got their hands on anything there.

You're correct, this documentary is a celebration of the 25th anniversary of the BAD album, and that is exactly why it IS relevant and justifiable to have stars like Bieber, Rhianna, Chris Brown etc in the show. Their contribution is as valid as the people who worked on the album or knew Mike at the time. It's their contribution that will show what impact that album has had, not only on the music scene 25 years ago but the impact it continues to have today, and it's their contribution that will play a big part in validating that impact. It's one thing to declare an album is still impacting today's stars, but it's better to demonstrate that with evidence from the stars themselves.

People who are moaning about these stars being on the show are just wrong. Simple.
Click to expand...

I'm not moaning about it, but I simply don't think these stars might give us valuable information on BAD. That's what I meant, I care about Michael's work and the process he and his people went through to create the album. Like the 50sec teaser we just saw, THAT is what I wanna see, people talking about the experiences on the set, in the studio, people who were there and experienced it first hand. I don't need to see CB, Rihanna or..JB talking about whatever they may talk because we know already how much they love MJ (?). Especially Bieber, to me he's just overrated as a singer, and if he is a fan great but it's getting too far and I don't think it's necessary to include him. And that's my very personal opinion, I just want to see people who really contributed to Bad, call me selfish or whatever but that's what I think and it's final.

I agree with you....I'm not moaning, or being negative or whatever....But I really don't care what Chris Brown or Justin Bieber have to say (no offense to them)....I love that they adore Michael, obviously, but to me their inclusion in this is a waste of time when we can be seeing more footage like we just saw....!

But I digress....I'm still gonna love this doc :D

Thanks, and of course, think about it, all the precious footage with Michael there working his magic and instead JB pops up on the screen? ugh, sorry but..:puke: I'm just in for Michael, and the teaser so far has pleased me beyond words, I hope to see more of THAT.

Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

Sky Arts in the UK could want it, and bid the highest...
 
Re: The Spike Lee BAD 25 Documentary [Discussion]

The original film reels for TWYMMF still exist! Amazing footage. Proof they could have gone all out with Vision blu ray style if they really wanted to.

This has potential to a great, great film!
