Fuqua said Michael "explores the journey of the man who became the King of Pop"

Looking at the family pics of such extreme cosmetic surgery... it makes me sad, and wonder what their parents did and said to make those kids hate themselves so much. Because I never want to make anyone feel that way about themselves.

after Michael died his kids were then given to thier grandparents.  i can just Imagin joe jackson sitting in the living room looking at Paris, and Blanket, and the other one with a pained look on his face, saying "can any of you kids dance?"

Uh, you don't have to wonder. Joe Jackson's abusive management of his kids' careers is pretty well documented.

So we're all going to pretend that Michael Jackson wasn't a pedophile?

I think since that wasn't proven in a court of law, they could get into serious trouble even suggesting that - they could cover the trials but that's about it.

Will it include a scene of him going to the sale at Gap for Kids because he heard they had little boys pants half-off?

ok, ok.

How about:

So we're all going to pretend that Michale Jackson's celebrity protected him from being seriously scrutinized by the media and law enforcement for his highly suspicious behavior -- having sleepover for children at his house, sleeping in bed with children, traveling around the world with children, etc.

When you tell someone that Michael Jackson was accused of being a pedophile, it gets different responses depending on what generation that person is from.

Gen X: "Damn right he was! He was a total creep around kids!"

Gen Y: "No he wasn't! The courts found no proof!"

Gen Z: "Who's Michael Jackson and why is Elon Musk mad at him?"
