Oh hey guys! We just can't hold BACK on re-imagining iconic epic '80s pop culture moments from a film AND music video standpoint. First we revealed how we'd love to see Justin Bieber cast in a remake of Back To The Future. And today, it's all about our long-held remake dream involving Britney Spears. After all, we know her recent song leak "Pleasure You" was declared bulls--- by her manager on Twitter, so we're anxious for some upcoming album news. Since there are few details about Britney's next album, we'd like to make a request. VERY specifically, we're jonesing for her to make a different kind of comeback. Brace yourself: we want to see Britney in a new version of Michael Jackson's epic music video, "Thriller."

Here's why:

1. The "Overprotected" singer is no stranger to the choreographed stylings of both Michael and Janet Jackson. She's adapted elements of both performers into her many videos -- and we think she'd do well to take a more literal stance on their inspiration in the form of a freaking awesome rendition of "Thriller" 2.0.

2. Britney's no stranger to remakes. She reminded the public at large about the meaning of the word "prerogative" when she sang her version of the famed Bobby Brown song. And she's redone "Satisfaction."

3. We know Britney can rock red leather like no one else can--recall, as you surely can, the "Oops I Did It Again" video. Britney Spears was truly a Nostradamus of style--she predicted the return of jumpsuits a full decade early!

4. Instead of zombies, Britney can opt for a very modern and feminine ghoul of choice--a glampire! Some fangs, a Cullen-worthy pallor, scary-chic makeup, and the look is complete.

Obviously no one could ever replace or top Michael Jackson's mastery of dance or the breakthrough that was "Thriller," but we'd love to see Britney's version of a tribute.

Gimme more, Britney! You... need... time.. because there IS a second chance against the thing with 40 eyes, in the paraphrased words of Michael J.

What do you guys think? What do you think Brit's next musical move should be?
 
Yes those five things are perfect reasons of why she should do it. Might as well get her to re-do Smooth Criminal while she's at it. Re-record the vocals and slap some auto-tune over it and BOOM song and video that could top the original.
 
I really don't think this is a good idea. I don't think Thriller should be redone. It will only be lackluster.
 
NO.

This pisses me off just a bit...Thriller should not be remade. It is a classic one of a kind video and should not be RUINED. It's a music video. Is that going to be the new thing now? Not only will they remake songs but music videos as well? No, just no. And Britney Spears? No.
 
she should do it.. But she simply can't. She has neither vocals nor moves to pull off thriller.
 
Maybe somone at MTV thought it was April's Fools Day instead of Halloween?
 
Oh God no. She will just turn Thriller into a semi porn film with bad singing (like her other videos). Leave the masterpieces alone please.
 
I really like Britney Spears. I think she's a great artist.
But remake of MJ's art? NO WAY!
Every artist, no matter who, would only embarrass themselves.
 
The writer of the article was just BAITING fans and it worked
So Im sure she will use MORE ridiculas MJ scenerios to get more
comment from Fans. This is the first article she ever really got
any comments on LOL
 
Is this serious or some kind of a bad joke?
 
Britney remake Thriller?
Come on that's stupid.
And the picture of Britney and Michael in the link; they trying to compare her with him by the clothes. Lol.

Exactly.....I don't get it....ah well....

Either way, it's Halloween, it's tradition, so therefore I'll be watching Thriller tonight, loud, on my system, WITHOUT Britney :lol:
 
um....no....

wasn't she drunk or something at the 30th ann. thing? is that the reason he used the model girl the second time lol? I really dont think he liked her.
 
We don't need any "remakes" to Michael Jackson songs. They're all perfect the way they are. I like Britney, but she would just destroy it. I'd rather see her focus her efforts on her own stuff, since she's a force to be reckoned with as it is.
