We're forgetting one important item.
Any MJ biopic that would get made likely won't happen without his family signing off on it. That being the case, I'm sure it'd end up being a sanitized version of events, and probably won't be an in depth portrayal that all the great biopics have.
Probably would be better if they did a documentary along the lines of "The Beatles Anthology". -

The Jacksons tv movie was adequate.
"Michael! Marlon! Who left the towel in the swimming pool!?" -

I read that Sony owns the rights to a MJ movie, should they make one.
I may be wrong though. -

I dunno. Dude from Jacksons: AAD killed the MJ role. Dude was perfect as teenage/early 20's MJ. Not saying get him, I think he's dead anyway, but just saying it can be done. -

My reaction every time Reggie Miller opens his mouth. -

there's so much to talk about, you can't include everything but the story can be straight if the right people are behind it
I this is the right direction. -

It takes more of a leap of faith to think he's innocent than t o think he's guilty. To think otherwise shows the insanely strong power of music
