I don't think there'll ever be a 'good' MJ biopic in our lifetimes. Biopics usually suck even with straightforward subject matter, let alone the insane clusterfuck that was mj's life which would actually make for an incredible movie done well.
This thing's box office will live off people happy to just hear MJ's music in a theatre. If they wanted to go the glaze route with no story they literally should've just made a compilation of the actual music videos and performances and call it a day.

This one is probably superior to Michael given the unintentional comedy, just like mj himself.
 
i can't wait for the kurt cobain biopic

stodgy exec: no cobain a song like "smells like teen spirit" has never been done!!!
cobain: you just dont get it old man it'll change the world
stodgy exec: grrrrrr i just dont get the yutes
Make it entirely about Courtney Love planning to murder him and I'd probably watch it.
 
All of the biopics suck. Selena, the Freddy Mercury movie, etc., they're all just shitty concert movies shot like a 90-minute music video but nobody actually looks like the people they're supposed to be playing. Dude playing MJ is way too black and heavy.


Lol that friggin split screen.
 
I was sadly disappointed this wasn't a CURRENT YEAR reboot of Mitchell!

there would be a scene of the exec solemnly pouring a drink while cobain performs smells like teen spirit
 
Bump: Saw the movie it was ok. It had a shitty non ending! It was ok up until then. Nothing about The Wiz!
I unironically watched and enjoyed The Wiz a number of times in the early/mid 80s when it made the rounds on the various movie cable channels. I don't know if I could sit thru it now, but I liked it then.

Was interesting. Saw it in cinemas today. Definitely can tell where they reworked the movie though.
