Michael's Magic

Finally got around to seeing the Michael Jackson movie yesterday.
I enjoyed it.

It brought back a lot of memories.

I looked for things that I remembered seeing and hearing about him back in the 70s and 80s.

I remember watching television and seeing Michael being hauled away by ambulance after his hair caught fire during a Pepsi commercial shoot.
....I also remember that Pepsi commercial, lol.
And one of the things that I looked for and saw was the media showing him laying on a ambulance cot with that sparkling white glove being held up.


I had little idea that the burns Michael received from that Pepsi commercial accident were so serious and left him in so much chronic pain.
I though his hair just caught on fire.

I wish they would have included Janet Jackson, Diana Ross, and Brooke Shields in the movie.

The movie basically ends with Michael's life back in 1988 -WTF?????

I sense a part 2 in the works.
