I thought The Temptation was abit biased toward Otis Williams' favor and against David Ruffin's,,,then again, the whole thing was from Otis side of story.

I don't trust that man anyway,,,,there're many allegations against him being an asshole toward his band members.

I always thought New York looked like one of the

Teenage Ninja Turtles with a weave

They should've included Katherine going to Joseph's office and beating up his mistress like she stole something.

but i liked the Temptations miniseries better than "The Jacksons" though. I've seen this Jacksons movie so many damn times it makes me Besides when Kathryn catches Joe on the phone trying to mack to his mistress:

Kathryn: I heard her!!! I hearrrdddd hheerrrrr!!!! She been in our home! IN OUR BED!!!!.....and I don't want u no mo'!!!!

that was my favorite part of the movie! Other than that and when Michael fell down those flight of steps when his hair caught on fire during the Pepsi commercial....okay it wasn't nice, but it was funny "on my hair, it hurts, oh...."

oh but back on the Tempts...yeah, I read the book that the miniseries was based on and yeah it's all from Otis' point of view. I sensed that he was an asshole too.

And The Five Heartbeats is even better than that!

Ms.Diahann Carroll did some slapping number on that greasy red headed motherfucker didn't she?

Flex was doing Mike before he did that terrible movie. Check this out.

Oh and the 5 Heartbeats.

Eddie King to Flash after a show "How does if feel to be me"

Harlepolis said:

"How dare you come here and disrespect my husband!?"

Seriously, Red, don't come to the funeral of someone you had killed. That's just tacky.

Moonwalkbjrain said:

I love Flex on "One on One" and while I thought he did the best he could, he totally made the movie worth watching, even though over all it was campy as hell. (He was the one good thing about the movie, and I give him an 8/10 as far as being Michael. His dancing was great. He has some of the mannerisms down. The only thing was, he was so tall. Michael isn't THAT tall. It was noticeable. However, like I said, Flex was still the best part of this movie.

JasonStar said:

he looks more like a monster getting ready to turn in that picture...

lilgish said:

this picture is so fuckin' scary

Harlepolis said:

MY FAVORITE ROLE THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN ANGELA BASSETT PLAY!

As for the content, the storyline is quite true, and doesn't gloss over the rough stuff. It is quite centered on Michael Jackson though.

...Who did it?! Wholefthetowsintheswimminpool?! Michael! Marlon!!

...Go to bed, Joseph! Go. To. Bed!

CinisterCee said:

If they made a sequel...it would be really quite sad.. As much as I'd love a follow up..it would be sad to watch.

Michael's career never quite reaching that Thriller peek sales-wise again.
Joe and Kat getting a divorce and not living together anymore.
Janet's SuperBowl goof.
Jermaine/Michael's trouble over "Word to the Bad"
Michael "leaving" The Jacksons
2300 Jacket Street flooping
The disaster of a show "Jackson Family Honors." Yeah, Michael was in tip top shape on the show, but he really didn't wanna be there.
Living with Michael Jackson
Michael's 93 and 2003 crap.
Janet's albums - DJ & 20 Y.0. not doing as well as hoped

The only real happy moment in the sequel would have probably been, Michael's 30th MSG Show. However, the day after the last concert was 9/11/2001. Not exactly a great way to end a movie.

Jacksons - The JasonStar years (I just realized that)

SefraNSue said:

"I had enough Joseph...all these years I had enough, you can not do this anymore."




Joe: "Tito, there some camera equipment you've been wantin' you can have all the equipment you want, just don't marry that girl, seh'll mess up your life.... You got girls screamin' over you right, you get married they're gonna look at you different."

Tito: "I don't care, I gonna marry Dee."

Joe: "You marry that, its the end of the Jackson Five."

LittleBLUECorvette said:

The line of the movie! And you gotta love the acting there. So intense.

Joe: you marry that girl and ts the END OF THE JACKSON FIVE!!

Tito: NO! It doesn't have to BE!...She don't wantr NOTHING but ME!

Joe: All that work. FOR NOTHING!

Michael: Man I HATE it when ya'll talk like that! Bout getting married! How could youb DO that to all our fans?! (runs away)

Yeah, I've seen this a few times.

Five Heartbeats is one of my favorites, too. Don't even get me started quoting from that one...

SefraNSue said:

"Katherine...are you pregnant?"
shakey voice "Yes"

After every commercial break she was pregnant

The best part is when Suzanne DePAsse realized that the kids didn't know the national anthem so they had to learn they had to learn it in about few minutes...

I think they strongly messed up the last part of the miniseries, they completely ignored the off the wall era, and didn't develop the Thriller era...

Also the last Randy jackson looked too old, he looked older than Michael Jackson, and where were the jackson sisters ???
