[magnavision]

Witness the final performance of a legend…

Magnavision Home Videos and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment present the video release of the most anticipated movie event of the year – Michael Jackson’s THIS IS IT.

Michael Jackson’s THIS IS IT is a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the performer as he developed, created and rehearsed for his sold-out concerts at London’s O2 Arena. Chronicling the months from April through June 2009, this film was produced with the full support of the Estate of Michael Jackson and drawn from more than one hundred hours of behind-the-scenes footage featuring Jackson rehearsing a number of his songs for the show. In raw and candid detail, Michael Jackson’s THIS IS IT captures the singer, dancer, filmmaker, architect, creative genius and great artist at work as he creates and perfects his planned final London shows.

Coming on Original VCD, 1-disc DVD, 2-disc DVD, Blu-Ray and 2-disc limited edition DVD with booklet, catch the King of Pop as he makes a final yet unforgettable return on stage.

Nakakatuwa naman to. Sa R3 may 2-disc version, sa R1 ay 1-disc lang.

Really?

Cool! In that case this is one of those rare times that the R3 version 1-ups the R1 version.

Only R3's I can think of that are better than their R1 counterparts are X-Men 3, Monster's Inc. & Terminator 3

You don't know how happy I am to find this!  I've been calling astrovision about the bluray & they have no idea if it will get released here!  So I've been canvassing both amazon & ebay & worrying myself to death about international shipping!

So how much is the bluray?

[nenbunena]

Oh  just to add, the bluray has the added features I want like MJ's rehearsal choreography seen in this trailer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RC1bohkDfXc

I went to Astroplus sa SM Makati. Sani sa akin ng taga Magnavision dun.

No reservations daw unlike other titles in the past. So anong significance nung nakasulat sa poster? Tsk tsk. 

[jekoy]

Wow! The Dancing Inmates of Cebu will be included in This Is It DVD/BD versions! Ang galeng!!!! Mapapabili tuloy ako nito.

Makakahabol pa kaya sa January release ito?

[frootloops]

No official price yet?

[nerveblocker]

This one is really worth owning. A must have specially for those who enjoyed the peak of his career.

Really? I thought their upcoming performance will be for the release event of the home video only, not as a special feature of the DVD/BD.

according to MJ's choreographer, their 2 performances will be part of the DVD/BD. one of the songs he'll choreographed is they don't care about us.

[eckxs]

Release is on January 26, 2010, this Tuesday. :-bd

[munky]

It is now available in SM Megamall Record Bar, I saw it a while ago. 1-disc is P750 while 2-disc is P899. I'm not sure if everyone here will like the 2-disc packaging.

[jas]

Also saw it already at Astro Shangrila over the weekend.

Looks like the newest Dancing Inmates clip choreographed by MJ's dancers is just a promotional one for the release of the "This Is it" DVD/BD today.  Here's the clip on Youtube:

congrats sir, I can see you are a real MJ addict . I will also get the blu copy. I'm thinking to just get it here nalang. Kasi kung sa amazon I will end up ordering more to maximize shipping haha. Mas gastos :'(

[techdude]

bought the two discer. The lenticular is as posted in the poster above. The booklet is a glossy mini picturebook, and with 'first edition' printed inside. The features are as listed by others. No dancing inmates features.

Imported dvd, and usual imported  good Sony dvd casing.

Haven't watch the movie in theaters. But watching the rehearsals in This is It, it clear the concert would have been something.
RIP, Michael...
