This Is Not It! Say Michael Jackson Fans

Filed under: Michael Jackson

Not everyone is thrilled to see the new This Is It documentary about Michael Jackson. Some fans are down-right outraged and have started a campaign against the flick.

The campaign, dubbed This Is Not It, is lead by a group of Jackson fans who feel the movie ignores the “dire state” of MJ’s health in those last final months of his life as promoters ran him ragged for their benefit.

The group has started a website that details what audiences will and won't see included in the footage as well as this message to fellow fans:

“In the weeks leading up to Michael Jackson’s death, while this footage was being shot, people around him knew that he looked like he might have died. Those who stood to make a profit chose to ignore it. Friends and fans who had no financial interest, chose to address it and attempted to help him. AEG, the promoters for This Is It, ignored the signs, ignored the pleas, and in fact, actively covered up the truth. What you will see on that screen is part of that cover up.”

Along with the website, the group created their own trailer for the movie to showcase their point-of-view on the documentary. Watch as the creators play with footage and photos from Michael's life to create a very different perspective. (above)

What do U think of this campaign?

      oh that's bullshit; which MJ fans wanna see their hero DYING? wtf??? i wanna see his glory days and his music; the good things abt his last days not the fact that he was in pain or dying! that's stupid to put in a movie wtf? ppl are so stupid!!!!!!



    2. 102

      they need to go away and stop this unless they have proof.



    3. 103

      They are not letting us see the whole picture. See how they make one song out of pieces of several days of rehearsals (different clothes on tell you that),their footage is edited. It's a make believe with all the best part performances and we cannot see what all happend in a whole day of rehearsals and what his behavior was the rest of the times.
      And why are they all of the sudden now coming out saying a little bit here and a little there about how they were worried and he was a bit thin, etc. I'm sure there is a lot more they are not saying.



    4. 104

      Obviously… this movie doesn't shows up all…. personally i'm a huge fan of MJ… and I wouldn't go to see a movie that shows me my hero defeated….



    5. 105

      oh and btw who wants to see mj sad in a movie? id much rather see him alive and doing what he loved i.e. performing!!!x

      Who wants to see a Michael that is dying or in pain? NOBODY does, but what is this movie reminding us of? Wether we see it in the movie or not? It is reminding us why he died. The issue here is not what you will see or not see in the damn movie, we want the truth revealed whatever it is. Please do your own research and don't believe all that AEG is saying, they have a lot of interests to cover up. There are a lot of contradictions out there that they have made themselves so obviously there is a lot more to this story, they are trying to hide something.

      Thats rubbish! He had some talent but wasn't ALL THAT, may he rest in piece. I say WHO FUCKING CARES, stupid bloody bastards with all that bloody time on their hands! They need to shut the bloody hell up and do something besides making a website, as if we didnt have enough of them out there all ready, bollocks



    8. 108

      ok.. so in the movie of course they are gonna show all the good stuff.. and of course these people are gonna show all the bad stuff.. but there has to be a balance. the picture of him being tired is understandable because he was working hard.. a few pictures ont prove anything

      Perez this is "this-is-not-it" is a conartist using MJ fans to get money from them. There is no billboard come to find out. The names used to get said money are non-existant. I'm alerting paypal, a lawyer, AEGs lawyers, The LA Times, Larry King, Geraldo Riveraa..etc.

      To fans who don't know anybetter. The jig is up. These jobless freaks want you to do all the work. Make copies of flyers and hand them out. There is no billboard, there never was to be. Don't do it. It will cost you big time. Don't become part of the giant lawsuit that lies ahead for this CON ARTIST who chased MJ down to get photos She never spent any time with him. He didn't bring fans to witness his rehearsals.

      I will be repeating this all over the net. For those who gave money. Complain to paypal because if you ask the person (unknown) who you gave money to, you get banned from the site.

      IT'S A SCAM!!

      Re: RIPmichaeljacksonxxx – I'd rather you learn how to spell. You should have told him to stop doing drugs. Who knew you actually saw MJ doing anything in the past 10 yrs? He hasn't performed since the late 90s. So please, give this crap a rest. Blame MJ for his demise. It's not like he wasn't warned.

      Re: tincan – We already know you are a fraud..this-is-not-it. Go to the website to give you money is what you want. A 50 yr old drug addict died. He was warned. Get over it. You want fame. I'll give it to you fraud. I've just begun. Why am I doubting you can afford a lawyers.

      Re: heavencantwait – WARNING.. POSSIBLE SCAM ALERT
      You (This is NOT It) claim to raise money for a billboard outside Nokia Theatre in LA during the premiere of the This Is It movie. As well informed “fans” with a huge knowledge of the facts, especially about AEG Live and Sony Music, knew already that the Nokia Theatre is a property of AEG, as you all can find on their website.
      Now, when the heat has come upon your feet, you are changing your story. If it will not succeed to get the billboard in the open, you’ll use it for flyers. Flyers that you originally asked your members to print them out, and now you want them to get printed?
      Why are you using a name for paypall that isn’t yours?
      Why are you hiding behind a mask and not telling people where they send their money to?
      This is a scam people.
      If you already donated some money, be quick to redeem it at PayPall, before it is too late.

      Re: tincan – Lies from you conartist. What an active imagination you have. LIes, MJ would never have let you, a stalking fan near him to lean on him. Full of cripe!

      MARIKA'S TESTIMONY

      "What I witnessed in June"

      Hello everyone,
      I know some of you won't like what I have to say, but I need to tell my experience so you can all understand. Some of you may have heard about an email I sent on June 21st. It has ben posted on forums without my consent, and people trashed me, saying I was a liar, was looking for fame (??) and more…
      This is why I sent it:

      I, with, two other friends, met MJ in his car on March 19th. We talked about AEG, how he was furious with them, wanting to make money, selling tickets vio Viagogo. He said "I hate to hear stories like that!" Me and my friend saw a very frail Michael. He had large orange pants. But as he was in the back seat and us, sitting in the front seat, he had his legs between ours. We could see what his leg was really looking like.
      He was so skinny.
      Michael couldn't stop apologizing for the way he looked: "I'm sorry you have to see me like that, Im so sorry!" He was hiding his face in his hands when saying this. Anyway, we were a little bit concerned, but thought: Ok, he has 3 months until the shows in London, so he may be working with someone…

      more lies to be cont'd
