Wow...glad to be on this thread. MJ fan here. 

By the way, would like to ask those who have bought their copies na. Anong difference nung 2-disc lenticular DVD and 2-disc limited edition DVD with booklet?

[techdude]

all two discs version I saw include the booklet and the lenticular postcard inside the slipcased dvd. Don't know if magnavision has another varaint that doesn't include those collectibles. Maybe not in the initial release. I think the lenticular one on the poster is a mockup, since the actual bluray is not slipcased.

got a local release bluray...

tapos di ko na ma cancel yung  sa amazon.. instant double dip..

but anyways... pag dating ng sa amazon... tinginan ko kung may difference

Cebu inmates, Jackson choreographer relive 'This Is It' in big number
GMANews.TV (January 26, 2009)

The performance was uploaded on the video-sharing site YouTube last January 22. Accessed on the morning of January 26, the video clip had already been viewed 417,610 times. Payne visited the Cebu penitentiary last week to teach the inmates "The Drill," which will be part of the Blu-Ray and DVD copies of "This Is It."

***********************************************

Hmmmm......so far I have not seen this video included in the recently released dvd copies last January 26. Mali ba ang report dito? Tsk tsk tsk. Would there be another release of this DVD wherein the Cebu video was included?  

[allanmandy]

Just as I mentioned in one of my posts, I believe that that Cebu inmate dance video was just shot for promotional purposes for the home video release, and not intended to be included in thr disc itself.

According to the Inquirer, the dancing inmates new video was shot only this January 16 (if my memory serves me right). So no way, it got included in the discs which would have been pressed and in warehouse by then...

Ang difference sa U.S. may steelbooks silang nirelease sans (w/o) the DVD, Exclusive sa Bestbuy.
I have the R1 steelbook cases for sale here sa thread ko.

Nice to see the Fil-Ams (Zaldy the Costume Designer and Chucky, one of the 11 dancers) get some airtime in the Special Features of this release.

It was going to be a spectacular and memorable comeback for the King of Pop...  Sayang talaga.

BTW, catch the Grammy Awards on Monday (morning), where MJ will be given a posthumous lifetime achievement award.

just got a 2 disc imported copy in astrovision megamall P999

good news is they will be giving away a cd of the cebu inmates dancing. pero limited lang daw 30 copies per store

Disc 2

• Meet the Dancers
Meet each of the 11 dancers chosen among thousands to dance with Michael Jackson on his This Is It tour.
• Meet the Band
Go behind the scenes with the band members chosen to perform on the This Is It tour with Michael Jackson
• Meet the Vocalists
Go behind the scenes with the vocalists selected to sing with Michael Jackson on the This Is It Tour

Above is the content of the P999. However I noticed that the P899  has more features than this. For those planning to get the lenticulars, check the sticker in front that say "lenticular", some stocks have that word erased so it seems that only the first batches had one. I'm still curious how did it happened since the disc is still on its original seal, including that sticker.

The Dancing Inmates disc hasn't arrived yet, good news is it will be imported. Magna was not allowed to produce locally. So better have your suking tindahan reserve one for you when it arrives.

Got my Dancing Inmate bonus disc.   Haven't played it but it's locally minted DVD5.

How will you know if you're entitled to this disc?

[techdude]

It's limited daw to those who bought during the first few days of release and who signed up for the promo disc.  But if you have the receipt to your purchase, you might want to try your luck, and since it's locally minted, it might not (I am guessing here) be as limited as what we were led to believe.
