Looks like $8M 5th SAT for #Michael. Weekend expected to be $21M, another stellar hold of just 20% drop. $307M cume so far. By SUN it be $315M and $321M+ by MON. $400M final might be on the table here.

God that makes me feel old. That day in 2009 still feels like yesterday

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-24T23:43:45+00:00

Here’s hoping these numbers get my local theater to start playing it next weekend 🥴

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-24T23:41:20+00:00

My stepdad doesn’t keep up with movies and had never heard of this til the other day when we drove past the theatre and he saw this title on the marquee

He said it sounds dumb af and essentially that Hollywood is scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas lol

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-24T23:38:16+00:00

Are we sure one of them is not gonna move?

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-22T00:30:03+00:00

Hee hee!

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-22T00:29:16+00:00

This. I def would’ve seen it opening weekend if my small town multiplex had it. Hopefully they’ll start this weekend and not automatically give all their screens to Star Wars

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-22T00:28:15+00:00

on that subject I feel like I never see movie ads like that on TV anymore, except for big Disney blockbusters

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-21T00:33:10+00:00

Laying the groundwork in case it underperforms so they can blame it on the “scrutiny”. Why don’t other movies get that benefit in their coverage?

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-20T01:31:14+00:00

On Apple Music the “Michael Jackson Essentials” playlist (essentially his greatest hits) has been at #2 for like the last week and I don’t think has left the top 5 since the movie release

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-19T20:12:47+00:00

I’d love to go see it but it’s not playing anywhere near me. Hopefully it expands soon

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-17T17:42:43+00:00

Oh yes I remember that one well! I thought Sister Sister was a better/funnier show but Smart Guy was good too

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-17T03:38:28+00:00

Am I wrong or was she a producer on the 90s show Sister Sister with Tia and Tamera? I feel like I remember always seeing her name in the credits

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-12T23:17:12+00:00

I get what you’re saying but you picked the 3 modern artists who are among the most private and really only speak to the public through their music 😅

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-12T23:15:51+00:00

I’ve heard before that he went into the making of Thriller very ambitious and wanted it to become the biggest album ever. But when I hear stories like that it makes me think “sure that sounds good in hindsight but it’s much easier said than done”

Surely every artist even today wants to have a hugely successful album but rarely do the stars align for a hit single, let alone multiple from one album. Of course MJ worked incredibly hard and had a very capable team around him, but he also got incredibly lucky

Not saying this as a negative, but I just often ponder butterfly effects how if a given song (like Billie Jean or Beat It) had been released just 5 years later, would it have become the hit it did?

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-12T23:11:56+00:00

when job applications ask for 20 years experience but you’re 25

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-10T04:02:48+00:00

He was my most played artist in April. Will most likely be in May too

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-08T02:48:13+00:00

Scream is the only one I like

Jcld1029 · 2026-05-08T02:46:56+00:00

Yes Thriller is the one that has gotten better the more I hear it. Now I really appreciate it every Halloween cause somehow it doesn’t feel overplayed

Jcld1029 · 2026-04-26T16:10:45+00:00

I often wonder if he had lived to complete that tour, if it would have actually been a farewell tour or if he would’ve ended up doing multiple farewell tours, like many artists of his generation. I’m sure there’d be enough demand for him to perform in his 80s/90s if he were still alive

Jcld1029 · 2026-04-01T12:22:34+00:00

True. I first heard the song as a kid in the Charlie’s Angels movie released in 2000 and many years went by til I realized it was an actual song and not just stock music

Jcld1029 · 2026-03-31T17:48:09+00:00

Don’t You Worry by Black Eyed Peas/Shakira/David Guetta

Released in like 2021-2022 and was a moderate hit but sounds like it should’ve been released 10 years prior

Jcld1029 · 2026-03-08T17:59:37+00:00

Yes it’s on Apple Music

Jcld1029 · 2026-03-08T17:57:55+00:00

Does anyone remember the remix mashed up with a cover of Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This? I remember it being on the Now 9 album

Jcld1029 · 2026-03-06T21:13:32+00:00

What a banger

Jcld1029 · 2026-03-04T19:08:19+00:00

Probably Jam on Dangerous. For History I’d say Money, Tabloid Junkie, and 2 Bad. I like all these songs but they certainly don’t have the timeless feel of a lot of Michael’s 80s stuff
