Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

*shrugs* Honestly, it's not gonna keep me awake at night LOL! I'll watch it for the rare stuff. I can't be assed getting upset over every little thing that comes out about him. You get tired of it after a while. People never seem to change their opinions on him.

^ Thanks for the inside tip, didn't realise you knew the inner workings of Michael's mind! Got anything else we should know?
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

Yea well I get tired of the same ol half assed docs that agenda's are always the same in the end, quick money in their pockets! Promising fans new a rare stuff to rear them in but, the out come is always the same. I do get upset about it because the more people allow it and just buy these kinds of things the more crap they will give us just like it, that's the truth.
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

I'm not saying you CAN'T get upset about it, I'm just saying that personally I'm tired of it and there's a point where I just stop caring and tuning in. The last piece of Michael merchandise I bought was......God, probably his albums about three years ago, LOL! I didn't buy Michael, didn't buy the crappy Visionary DVD box set. And I probably won't buy this documentary. Usually I just wait for it to pop up on the internet and I'll download the parts I want.

Well by the sounds of it I won't be forking out money for it, I'll just download it :D
 
Re: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Producter David Gest and Universal Pictures announce all-star World Premi

wow, what an interview. David Gest was some friend, I see. Is he trying to qualify for a witness for the defense?

I find it VERY FUNNY when Michael doesn't see a person, it's ALWAYS because "We were shut out." It's never a thought that MAYBE Michael just didn't want to see that particular person. Which is what I always believed, i.e. Michael Jackson did what he wanted to do, and saw who he wanted to see. End Of Story!

And good Lord, why is Gest talking about "sleeping" and "painkillers!" What the heck is wrong with him. This is definitely NOT the time to be talking about such things. Which, in my opinion, David Gest has no first hand knowledge of anyway.

I also have a feeling that Mr. Gest was NEVER invited to Carolwood for tea. LOL! Oh I forgot, the "bad" people probably blocked that invitation.
 
Re: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Producter David Gest and Universal Pictures announce all-star World Premi

Well maybe that is why he was not sleeping at night. Considering he had no painkillers in his house when he died. And considering he had not gotten any in the months before he died. Katheerine had no problem getting him. The Cacsios had no problems I am sure. They had his number I wonder why David did not have it?
 
Re: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Producter David Gest and Universal Pictures announce all-star World Premi

Edit: I made a mistake, I confused the two threads about this subject.
Don't want people to think something was deleted when it wasn't. My apologies for that.

I agree with what was posted above me. Michael didn"t seem to have a problem contacting people, he just chose not to engage with certain others anymore. But it always seems easier to blame others or Michael instead...

Re: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Producter David Gest and Universal Pictures announce all-star World Premi

Well Gaz I expect there to be some harsh questions so I'll start it off a bit more politely.

What is your favourite memory of Michael?
 
Re: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Producter David Gest and Universal Pictures announce all-star World Premi

Funniest memory of Michael is a question I always love hearing the answer to.

Karen Faye is talking :censored: on Twitter (as usual) about this documentary. I guess she's still pissed about Michael firing her.
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

^Wasn't she working for Michael when he died?

I think the documentary might have some rare photos/footage/audio though! That's what I'm holding out for. I don't really give a crap about David's commentary to be honest, it's more what's actually going to be in it!
Click to expand...


The problem is that if fans give in and buy this crap...........then it'll give them more incentive to try out more sales gimmicks on us fans!!!!!



To them before:
Michael = Bank ($$$$$$$$$)

To them now:
MJ Fans = Bank ($$$$$$$$$)



My advice is: Don't Buy It!!!!......

.....But you are free to make your own decisions!!!!!
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

fans consider it "B.S" because it does not show MJ in a perfect light.. let his family consider him and talk about him like a normal human being. My brother is a great guy with his own issues.. why if I am trying to show people the REAL him would hide the issues he had? I wouldn't if I really excepted him and thought of him as a great guy considering the FULLNESS of what he is than that REALLY shows he's a great guy. If not and I have to cover or keep out aspects then I am giving a false representation of who he is and making him out to be different than he is. It does not mean he's any less of a person. He's just HUMAN

Michael was a God, didn't you know?
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

So many people are writing things or making things saying they were close to Michael yet had no contact with him for years. You don't know what goes on in a person's life when you don't see or talk to them for years. They can talk about what they do know and the time they spent with him. It just seems like everyone seems to know what happened to Michael these final years and yet admit at the same time they never saw or talked to him. I think as a fan you want to be cautious about what to buy and what to put interest in. I know I am not going to buy every dvd or book about Michael. It takes me awhile to decide what I am going to do.

No, Michael wasn't a god and most people know this.

See that's the part the get's me. LOL!

They willingly admit that they had no contact with Michael during his final years, yet they continue to tell stories about Michael's final years as if they were actually with Michael during those times.

I would have a bit more respect, if folks would just talk about what they know FIRST HAND, because they were actually there, rather than just REPEAT what they "heard" from Tom, Dick, and/or Harry.
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

IDK

I'm interested in this documentary but I'll be waiting for reviews from fans who will buy it. Though the drug thing and Michael shutting people out turned me off.

TMez said this doc was wonderful :thinking:

That's why I hesitate to buy something. It's not that I can't handle any issues Michael had. He admitted he had issues himself and we all have something we deal with or dealt with. If I really want to understand what happened to Michael I need to hear it from people who were with him. Not from people who saw him years at a time or not ever. Sometimes it feels more like specualtion than truth.

HLN just reported that Katherine is flying to London for a committment she made regarding a DVD before this trial was rescheduled. Katherine may not be back in time for the verdict.

ETA: Maybe this is why Janet has changed her mind and decided she needs to be in court.

OH PLEASE! I just feel that there are many other ways to show MJ in a humanizing way then to share private embarrassing moments like him throwing up in a friends bathroom. Like seriously! That doesn't mean some fans think he is some god. I just want them to be respectful to his memory and some of the things Gest is sharing isn't doing that IMO. I don't know what celeb would want that type of info out there to humanize them? I wouldn't want that type of info out there about me being spread to friends and family so imagine someone like MJ who was so private! It's riduclous and offers nothing but, more bad press on MJ.

And who are these people to point out his other side when they keep showing us their two faces every chance they get and giving us many different stories! They should start by being honest about themselves before they try to "reveal" someone elses life! Just saying!

Nothing's wrong with fans not wanting negativity dwelled on.

Especially when we're talking about a celebrity who has media and haters that want the negativity spoken about.
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

I am looking forward to this.

New footage of MJ will be great. - And I will not judge it before I've seen it.
It may be a great documentary, we do not know before we've seen it.

"Before you judge me, try hard to love me"
 
Re: Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - Excl Advanced Blu-ray & DVD Cover Preview *Update Post 13

What does MJ lyrics got to do with What Gest already shared about it in an article about his Doc? Which is what I'm referring to! SMH
