New Forum: THIS IS IT - At The Cinema

I'm am so excited about this!!!! I'm really new here but I'm a bit contributor to the Wikipedia article for "Michael Jackson's This Is It." I'm refreshing this thread for anything new all day! :D
 
When you look at the movie poster, the still is from a Billie Jean pose (you can spot sequenes on the jacket around his shoulders) I pressume from the last day of rehearsal.

I have never seen this pose before during the Billie Jean routine, so I was wondering whether Michael totally re-worked the choreography to freshen up the act. Or do you think this poster was always going to happen (ie for an eventual DVD release)?
 
I'm soo happy about this.. I just found out It will be shown in my city as well :)

From another site, hopefully true!


1) Trailers are mostly done, and we’re waiting partly on the footage from the funeral which is being added in now. Expect to see the first ad premiere next weekend. I tried to press him on more info regarding the VMA’s but couldn’t get a confirmation.

2) The movie is not a 2 hour concert like many fans thought. In fact the movie is simply a documentary based around the This Is It tour, it shows Jackson in his final days and includes his death, aftermath, and reaction. Clips from the memorial and funeral will be used.

3) There will be some footage of MJ performing, much longer then the 3-4 minute snippet released at the end of June by AEG. You will see MJ in his dressing room, mingling and directing, plus one scene where he talks to the camera. Basically, it will show Jackson in his final months alive.

4) The movie is between 100 and 130 minutes in length.

5) The plan for the DVD is to have it out in late November by Thanksgiving or early December at the latest, although my source revealed this maybe a long shot if they extend the 2 week showing to 3 or 4 weeks (which is possible).

6) The DVD will contain the theatrical version in its whole plus over 2 hours of Jackson performing, warming up his vocals, singing, and in full costume. The most spectacular footage is by far from the Staples Center in LA which I’m told will “blow fans away”. This extra footage will be a special feature on the DVD along with many other treats that fans will love.

7) Finally, the CD soundtrack I’m told will be released after the movie, most likely sometime in November to coincide with the DVD launch and WILL include a new song Jackson recorded in his last 2 years alive. Apparently the song is “off the hook” and is currently being worked on by producers who are putting the finishing touches on it and is being considered to be issued as a single all around the world.

If what you are posting here is true, then I very happy. This new information gives some hope that we will be able to see Michael doing what he did best. I saw in another post where this person found out that it was being shown in their city. Is there a schedule posted somewhere? Thanks.

"Though we're far apart, you're always in my heart!" :angel:
