"When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all."

That was really good.

A few things came 2 mind.

1. Mj and his team really put in some work

2. Mj's best project in my opinion

3. Simply can't believe Mj is gone. sad

the full 2:11 dvd comes to retail in Feb.

Spike Lee’s full Michael Jackson documentary contains more than an hour of extra footage not aired on television. Lee was forced to cut down “Bad 25″ to just over an hour to fit into ABC’s 90-minute-block, but the DVD version lasts a full 123 minutes. Among the footage cut from ABC’s version are interviews with Stevie Wonder and Justin Bieber, as well as a dance shared by a young Sheryl Crow and Jackson during the 1987 Bad tour.

Clips of Michael himself were omitted as well, though the film maintains the stars constant involvement in the creation of his music and short films. The ABC time slot forced certain topics to be skipped entirely, such as Jackson’s acquisition of the Beatles catalog, and the filming of the star studded “Liberian Girl” video. Even if the fans were able to catch the full version of the film, Lee is still able to convey a positive image of the legendary artist.

According to Lee’s Twitter, the full version will be available for fans in February 2013. European audiences will be treated to the complete documentary on December 1 via BBC2.

really? I thought you were one of those guys. who believe that MJ was done after Thriller. And his best years - early childhood lol

Dangerous - my favorite album .... Bad - № 2.
He alone wrote 9 songs out of 11. It really is his baby. I like every song: more or less.

But why this documentary is so short? Can we find online a complete more than 2 hours? smile

Oh, God, in the film says that Michael wanted to put this photo on the album cover. lol

then this album just would not suit the name "bad." Rather, a different word, but also a three-letter lol

A lot of fans already knew the lace picture was going to be the original cover. Adrian Grant's Visual Documentary book from 1995 might have mentioned it but I'll double check it later

That was a great documentary; watched it on Hulu.com last night. Loved the behind the scenes footage of the "Bad" & "Smooth Criminal" video shoots, especially the dance rehearsals with Soul Train/Shalamar's Jeffrey Daniel. And it was cool to see how the early Soul Train dancers influenced Michael's dancing.

Still hard to believe MJ is gone, sad

Hey...
