This is It, well it was IT...


We saw This is it, Michael Jackson's last few months in a documentary last night. It was really fantastic. A few of my friends made jokes about us going, but if you are a fan, its a must see. Tony really enjoyed it too. You get to see all of his performances, not in costume, but it seems like his everyday clothes are his costumes. Orange skin tight pants with a turquoise shirt (kinda Beat It), glitter gold pants, a gold over sized blazer.. I don't know where he used to shop, but some of the outfits were crazy. Anyway, there are some great scenes where he is being such a perfectionist with his musicians and production staff. It's amazing how great this show would have been. He totally still had it at 50! His moves are just amazing! He just pops and twerks and moves around so amazingly and you can tell he is totally thinking about the song, the sound, the moves, the audience reaction, its really amazing. I think the movie runs through Thanksgiving and I do think its a must see for any fan of him or of dance and performance. And..its really sad at one point I just had to stop and think he's really gone..no more of this great music and performance...sad..sad...
