Probably should have been a Netflix film series. For someone who's gone down the Michael Jackson rabbit hole a few times, so many things were missing.
For one, how Michael's fame grew and some people started manipulating their relationship with him just to get him distance himself from his family. The yt executives at epic records in particular...was their goal from the moment they signed he and his brothers after they left motown.
Why did they leave motown? When did they realize they didn't have their creative control at motown? How was growing in motown affecting them? When Jermaine decided to stay behind after they left, how did it affect his relationship with Michael because he didn't succeed as much as Michael whose career took off massively?
Off the wall was a really successful project, but despite the success of that album, he only won 1 Grammy for it..this was because it was at a time that the Grammy undervalued black artists in his category. How this fired him up to put Thriller together. He and Quincy Jones were specific about who they put on that album so it could get the kind of success it did.
The movie also undersold his business acumen..the catalog he bought which included the Beatles...that would later save his estate after his death considering how much debt he was in at that period. Diana Rоss involvement in his career and how it helped him considering she was big at that point in time, wasn't really shown. Quincy Jones was a very solid part of his career and they met because of the movie Michael featured in because of Diana (the wiz). Quincy Jones was one of the producers for that movie.
His marriage to Lisa Presley, his other relationships, how he ended up having 3 yt children. His relationship with Janet was important (I understand she didn't want to be involved anyway, but it was missing)
Yess, there was a reason Michael did BAD after Thriller..every real Michael fan knows why anyway. I could go on and on. Hopffully part 2 gives us some of these things.
