Michael Jackson ‘This Is It’ movie trailer hits the web… plus fan mosaic
With the refund policy for Michael Jackson’s This Is It concerts well underway, we haven’t heard yet just how many fans chose to get commemorative tickets instead of their money back. Even so, AEG Live has other irons in the fire when it comes to recouping its investment in the late singer.
It’s just released the trailer for the official Michael Jackson’s This Is It movie, which can be watched online at the official site. Based on more than 100 hours of backstage footage from his rehearsals for the planned run of gigs at London’s O2, it’s getting a cinematic release next month, plus a DVD version.
There’s also a dash of Web 2.0 marketing around it via a ‘fan mosaic’, with fans being invited to upload their photos for inclusion in the promotional artwork for the release. Thankfully, this is one element of the post-death promotional push that’s not being charged for.

I watched this at school just now and almost broke down in freaking tears! Michael had a dream and all he wanted to share it with his amazing fans. He told them how much he loved us. now he’s gone. But Kenny ortega is doing the right thing and releasing this movie. Michael would want it for his fans,he never will be forgotten ever, Gone but not forgotten.
SO Michael although i sit here in almost tears i realize this movie is going to be your message to us. I hope i get to see it and hope i don’t cry my eyes out the whole time. Your the most amazing artist i could ever hear. Man in the mirror thriller billie jean beat it smooth criminal black or white you are not alone so many hits. You deserve to rest in peace and the haters can go shove it. anyway rest in peace Michael i miss you we all do but this movie is just gonna celebrate your life and what you did to help this world we love you forever

Awesome sight….thanks for keeping the torch aflame. I’m a huge fan of MJ I discovered a 30 disc dvd set of all of his concerts that are pretty much impossible to find! I got it at http://www.mjdvds.ca, and it’s sold through a home theater company. The quality is great and I’m telling everyone I know about it. Spread the word if you are a hardcore MJ Fan, I wish they had released these while he was alive!
To the Man in the Mirror……
