Well I just got back..Superb..Total representation of who michael is as a musician, dancer, singer, improviser..the list goes on..I shall try to remember moments..This is one of those films where if you see it again , you will notice more things
Just to say a few annoying bits first..I say annoying but not really...Well as I thought, some bits included weren't in the film which was odd..Like the moment where mj is ni a red jacket and he opens it up and closes it..It was on the set of the new thriller bit..I swear I did not see that...
But also, in the end credits, there were moments of michael next to credits and some were def not in the film..Like he had the curls for girls t shirt and a baige jacket and also a fedora with something else..They weren't in film which was tad odd..Maybe in extras bit?Also the moment where the backign singer put his hand on michael's shoulders from behind him..NEVER IN IT?
Anyone notice they showed mj doing the moonwalk slide ALOT...I mean he did it loads of times lol..More than the spin! lol
I thought the adding of dates was a bit pointless because they were hardly any...They should have put more specific days on the bottom on scenes..I only remember a few but it would have made everything a bit more relative
It is tough to have 200 hours of footage and this short space of time to put it all together..But i thought it was well done, although the order of songs ws not the same as the album..It was gettin to a stage where i thought, omg they are leaving out billie jean?
I mean bj would not have been at that point in the concert.
Anyway , lets see...So the beginning words were very poignant..I like how the last paragrah was left a bit longer as it was the most emotional bit...I think was v good to start how the concert would have but I thought mj would have made a more grand entrance onto the screen..Suddenly he was just there, just like the trailer..I thought he would have been shown walking on stage but hey thats just me..
Nice to start with dancers expressing their love for mj and being so emotional
1、Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' (full performance)..
Electric performance..I mean it was like bam! lLike Start of concert lol..He song the lines in v different ways and tones and it was so fresh and new..
2、Speechless (very very short, if it counts)..Beautiful moment..I guess it was spontaneous and maybe he did not sing the whole song..But it was a nice moment to see.
3、Jam (full performance)..Never though i would see this one..He did the whole dance bit..very nice segment...The guy didn't do the rap, he just kept saying jam lol..Was funny
4、They Don't Really Care About Us (almost full performance) / Drill (short) (green screen) / Bad (short) (green screen)..Pretty much same as clip we seen..I tought that mj entrance where the dancers got excited was the first time they saw him, Maybe it was..But wasn't clear to me
5、Human Nature (full performance)..best vocals of whole show..His range on some notes was scary..I loved the end 3 scene bit when he is going off stage..The end of that song was just unbelievable..So much depth to his voice and I liked the rehersal bit before he just suddenly broke out into it..I am not talking about the bit already shown..He was just going over the sounding of a single note...But then he just hits it and goes into the accapella..Those high notes at the end..He hit them as good as I ever heard, if not better..Quite amazed
6、Smooth Criminal (Dome Project / full performance)..wow wow..the moment you see mj in full outfit in balck and white...just sitting there flirting with his eyes..That whole bit was great..So it was mj ridiing down the staris! The chase scene was soo cool...The bit where he decided when to cue the song and how he will feel it..to the whole structure of the song
7、The Way You Make Me Feel (Dome Project / full performance)...The moment he was helping to figure out the notes on the piano was so cool..A true master at work and then he starts dancing to it..Those moments where he was instructing the band and the keyboard guy were so intersting to watch..He explained it like james brown..Not technical but in his own voice and way of his own..OMG THE ENDING TO THIS..When he is holding on to like a bar thingy and just flirts with the girl to the different music..Loved the new ending.loved it
8、Jackson 5 Medley: I Want You Back, The Love You Save, I'll Be There (almost full performance)..The bit with when he stop singing and just smiled at fact he had ' a fist in his ear' ...That is why we do rehersals lol...But Kenny was like now if it happens on the next song, you can tell us sir ..I think ''ill be there was most emotional bit of whole film'' Very sad to see..Then everyone watching was swaying arms...I like bit where before he continued singing he said ''you'll have to forgive me, i'm saving my voice''..It was like he felt disaoopined for the people watching even though they will see it every night..So humble and gracious
9、Dance and Shout (Very short, mostly dancers danced, MJ joined in the last part)..I thought mj was gonna start dancing but no no ..Was nice moment for dancers though..Mj looked happy at the end
10、I Just Can't Stop Loving You (full performance, the last part will blow you away)..singing in spanish..wow...he was teasing..But the connection he had in that performance..I never seen such a emotionall tight performance..He got sexual lol..Maybe he was horny lool...But that was electric...Reminded me of when I saw smokey robinson doing a duet on bbc proms and got up close with the woman too..lol
11、Thriller (full performance/Dome Project) / Threatened (very short)
Loved the new 3d film..New vincet price talking..Agin loved the new ending with music and mj going up abover the stage and dancing, looking down on others...OMG Him coming out of the spider...GREAT IDEA..Loved that...
12、Beat It (full performance)
HAHA mJ BACK ON the cherry picker..When kenny said this is medium height..it can go alot higher and mj was like ''Why would you say that when you know I wana go higher lol''...I loved the ending to when he would 'beat it' throw jacket on floor as if it was on fire..and stamp on it...
13、Black or White (full performance)..Sounded live to me? Very rare in itself..Yup loved his direction for guitarist and when he was like this is your moment..And he sung the high notes for her to hit..Wow
14、Earth Song (Dome Project / full performance)..Beauitful voice overs from mj..Really passionate and emotional this section..He really believed in climate change and the 4 year thing...
15、Billie Jean (full performance)..Annoyed about no hat or moonwalk but LOVED this different take on bj..Nothing was really the same from other mj performances was it?That is why it is so unique..He did some nice movements in that song and he was like god bless you at the end..Dancers and crew were going nuts lol
The talking with whole crew in circle was sad, mj's speech was so nice to everyone but terribly upsetting in hindsight
16、Man in the Mirror (full performance)...Nice ending, and the moment when it paused, arms outstretched, then said michael jackson..Brought it all home.
17、This Is It (with the credit rolling, followed by Heal The World Dome project, very short clip
Love moments where he glasses came off intentioanlly as he was dancing, looked v cool..Loved the air stewardess moment where he mocked the way they signal in the planes..Loved the moment when he was performinng ijcsly and did this shy pose to Judith..Like shucks lol...The reactions from dancers watchign all the time..They were transfixed..Noone took their eyes of mj...He always said god bless you and it's all for love, l.o.v.e..He said at the end why are you making me do this , I need to preserve my voice..And someone said, ''you can do it just this once, you know you want too''..That was a nice moment...
There is so much more, so much that i need to see it again to understand what else was going all..All happened so fast and yet so slow...
