Where is the fu** is MOONWALKER?!!

[Craig02]

Will be buying

I am really surprised they have not put any of his concerts out on blu-ray yet...

@Agent Bond you could always import moonwalker

[Moviefan2k4]

Its really very sad that Michael and his music are getting more respect in death than in life. That said, it would be interesting to see Katherine's view of things. I just hope they don't put Joe on there, because regardless of whatever happened, Michael was genuinely terrified of his father.

True, but I shouldn't have resort to doing so.

Given the VHS-like image quality of the DVD, I don't see why releasing it on Blu...

[bentvalve]

I was just checking out the all negative reviews on Amazon.

That's typical! When Michael was alive, the news media, and paparazzi continually crucified, ridiculed, and humiliated him with numerous of devastating lies, scandalous accusations up to his death. Since he passed on, everybody wants to express their love for him, and his music, but now, it's too late! They should have showed their love, gratitude, and appreciation when he was here to see it... Michael loved kids (not in a sexual matter as alleged) because Michael was a big kid himself in private due to the fact, he was deprived of his childhood by his Father. He misses his childhood immensely... Michael Jackson performed with his brothers: Jermaine, Tito, Jackie, and Marlon since he was 6 years old. His youngest Brother: Randy didn't join the group until later in their career to replace Michael, when Michael departed to become a solo artists. I don't know anyone ever realize but, Michael never in his life referred to his father as dad! He always called his Father by his first name: Joe. That speaks volumes! He will be greatly missed by his family, and fans. There will never be another Michael Jackson!

I remember watching the 1997 interview that Michael did with Barbara Walters on YouTube, and feeling such sympathy for him. I didn't approve of some of his choices, but there's no denying he was a genius, for the worlds of music and dance. If any of you want to hear more about MJ's positive side, check out the clip below.

WOW! That interview is almost a verbatim statement from Michael himself, which only confirms my previous post, without me seeing it first. What a coincidence!

Yeah, that whole interview is so personal, and even with Steve's girls in the background, Michael just showed such a genuine side of himself. That's what people should remember him for, not all the rumors, scandals, and lies.
