Bis jetzt nicht bekannt. Ich wills auf Blu-ray, der Rest ist mir egal

wird interessant wie die das gelöst haben... Eigentlich ist eine 3D Konvertierung von einem solch körnigen Ausgangsmaterial nur möglich, in dem man zuerst mit einem Filter die Körnung entfernt, was aber zu massivem Detailverlust führt. Hier ein berüchtigtes Beispiel von Disney, was passieren kann:

Sollte das zu OT sein einfach löschen

Passt das hier?
Bei Netflix gibt es jetzt This is it

Edit: habs gesehen, bitte verschieben.

Hatten wir das schon?

Quincy Jones Verdict

Veteran music producer Quincy Jones prevailed on Wednesday in his
dispute over unpaid royalties with the estate of Michael Jackson.

A Los Angeles jury awarded Jones $9.42 ($9,423,695) million in damages,
finding that he had been underpaid in royalties for music used in the
“This Is It” documentary and two Cirque du Soleil shows.

Jones first sued in 2013, alleging that he was unfairly cut out of
posthumous deals by Jackson’s estate to feature his music in the 2009
film and the Cirque shows. He said he was owed $30 million.

During the two-week trial, attorneys for both sides quibbled over how to
interpret contract language that governed how Jones’ royalties were
calculated.

Jones took the witness stand last week — entering the courtroom in a
wheelchair — to explain his views on how he was “cheated out of a lot of
money” by the Jackson estate. At issue was the interpretation of two
contracts for the albums “Off the Wall,” “Thriller,” and “Bad.” Jones’
lawyers contended that his contracts entitle him to significant proceeds
from “This Is It,” the backstage concert film released after Jackson’s
death, as well as those from two Cirque du Soleil shows.

In handing down their verdict, the jury did not redefine what a “record”
is. On the question of whether the Cirque shows or “This Is It” were
considered “records,” the jury said no. As to what comprises a “video
show” — “This Is It” is applicable, but not the Cirque performances.

Representing the Jackson estate, Howard Weitzman argued that Jackson
himself made major contributions to the sound of each song, which
rankled Jones, who testified that producers often take the blame for
failures while artists get credit for hits.

Currently, the court is polling the jury on how they each answered the 28-question verdict form.

Following the verdict, Jones released the following statement:

“As an artist, maintaining the vision and integrity of one’s creation is
of paramount importance. I, along with the team I assembled with
Michael, took great care and purpose in creating these albums, and it
has always given me a great sense of pride and comfort that three
decades after they were originally recorded, these songs are still being
played in every corner of the world. This lawsuit was never about
Michael, it was about protecting the integrity of the work we all did in
the recording studio and the legacy of what we created. Although this
judgement is not the full amount that I was seeking, I am very grateful
that the jury decided in our favor in this matter. I view it not only as
a victory for myself personally, but for artists’ rights overall.”

Jury foreman Duy Nguyen, 28, said the contracts were the strongest
pieces of evidence the jury considered, and said hearing Jones'
testimony was also helpful.
He said he and many members of the jury are Jackson fans, but that didn't factor into the deliberations. He said the verdict amount was a compromise figure based on an expert's testimony.

From Billboard - http://www.billboard.com/articles/ne...tate-9-million

Following the verdict, Howard Weitzman and Zia Modabber, attorneys for
the estate of Michael Jackson, said Jones should not have received the
sum. "While the jury denied Quincy Jones $21 million – or more than
two-thirds of what he demanded -- from The Estate of Michael Jackson, we
still believe that giving him millions of dollars that he has no right
to receive under his contracts is wrong," the pair said in a statement
issued to Billboard.

The statement continues, "This would reinterpret the legal language in,
and effectively rewrite, contracts that Mr. Jones lived under for more
than three decades, admitted he never read, referred to as 'contract,
montract,' and told the jurors he didn't 'give a damn' about. Any amount
above and beyond what is called for in his contracts is too much and
unfair to Michael’s heirs. Although Mr. Jones is portraying this is a
victory for artists’ rights, the real artist is Michael Jackson and it
is his money Mr. Jones is seeking."

und ist das gut? Noch nie gehört von IM Global

Ich hoffe es wird auf Netflix und bluray veröffentlicht, anstatt dass es 1 mal auf super RTL läuft und das wars.

Bin jetzt nicht wahnsinns begeistert, aber sieht nach einem spassigen neuen Weg und Filmchen aus.

Ankündigung angeblich neu heute um 8pm GMT

Wochen

ich tippe sehr stark auf Thriller 3D

Ja... war ganz gut gemacht...und hat einem vor Augen geführt, in was für Umständen und riesigem Druck er ausgesetzt war. Der Name "Wonderland" finde ich schön, war mir bis jetzt nicht bekannt bzw. steht das auch im Buch?
Ich wünschte es wäre anders gelaufen...

Können die Mal einen nehmen der einigermassen wie MJ aussieht? Ecas zum Beispiel?

So wie er das sagt von Tonfall und Gestik her im Ausschnitt "this place has been contaminated by evil" kommt einfach mehr als Verarsche wie South Park oder Scary Movie rüber, sorry

juhu, zum tausendsten Mal Thriller, diesmal in 3D und einem Edm Thriller 2017 Remix

Sorry aber mit all den Kollaborationen seit 99 wie Irv Gotti, Ja Rule/Ashanti, Will Smith, Darkchild, Michael Prince, Neff-u, RedOne, Will.i.am, Katrina Song, Solo-Songs, das für Xscape produzierte Hot fun in the summertime etc. bekommt man locker mehrere Alben voll, zur Not auch als Duette, was mit Sicherheit schon im Gespräch war, auch laut Teddy Riley.
Alleine die für Xscape in Betracht gezogenen Tracks füllen zwei kompakte Alben.

Sie wollen es wie es scheint nicht oder es lohnt sich nicht mehr. Oder sie haben den Grossteil der Songs gar nicht, sondern die Produzenten.

Vielleicht wirds ja was mit der Hologramm Tour

100%

Da fehlt aber was sie sonst gesagt/geschrieben hat, mal schön die Fresse halten als angeblicher "Freund"...
He sat on my bed looking very handsome, dressed all in black. He had not yet gone over the top in his facial surgeries,” writes Sager. “He was quite beautiful looking in a Diana Ross way. He had not altered his skin tone and he had not yet begun to sabotage his career. Still, he was afraid.”

Jackson allegedly told Sager that he was shy, so she suggested he stay in her room. When Jackson finally joined the party, “he never left Elizabeth’s side, even holding her hand for most of the evening,” writes Sager.

“I had real empathy for him and the unloved childhood his abusive father robbed him of,” writes Sager. “As Elizabeth often said, she connected with Michael on a soul level because they were both deprived of a childhood by early stardom, yet they each looked at life at times through the eyes of a child.”

According to They’re Playing Our Song, one of her last interactions with Jackson occurred in 2006, at a party held by Barbara Davis. Even for Sager, who had partied and worked with celebrities for years, the evening was surreal. Marvin Hamlisch, Sager’s ex-boyfriend, fell asleep at the table and their host, Davis, looked like she was about to as well, writes Sager. Even though Michael Jackson’s two young children were present at the table, he also nodded off. According to Sager, Jackson said he was exhausted because he had been traveling in the Middle East. In reality, Sager writes that she learned Jackson had “been home for three weeks and was on some heavy narcotics” that caused him to slur and fall asleep.

So when Sager learned of Jackson’s death on June 25, 2009, she wasn’t shocked — “just terribly sad.” Elizabeth Taylor, in contrast, was inconsolable. According to Sager, she held Taylor’s hand as “she cried through the whole telecast.” Sager feels that “losing Michael accelerated [Taylor’s] decline.” Taylor died less than two years later, in 2011.

Sager continues to mourn the loss of both her celebrity friends. To her, Elizabeth was great because of her “humanity,” while Jackson was a “phenomenon.”

“Singular in his stunning talent and stunted beyond measure in the rest of his life,” Sager writes. “And to the extent that he was capable of love, I believe he loved his children, his mother, and he loved Elizabeth.”

Passt das hier hin?...
Heute im Regionalradio hat sich eine Mutter für ihre 15jährige Tochter,die Geburtstag hat und heute eine Zusage für eine Lehrstelle bekommen hat und "ein riesen Michael Jackson Fan ist" ein Lied gewünscht, da sie sich damit nicht auskennt "dieses mit den Kindern". Es wurde dann Heal the world gespielt.

Hat mich gefreut dass jemand der 15 ist Fan ist. Doch wie wurde sie Fan, durch TII wo sie 8 war?
Ist sie vielleicht hier im Forum?

Weiss jemand was beim Cheyenne schon renoviert wurde und was nicht? Das ganze soll ja bis September 2017 dauern. Mich interessiert, ob im Mai 2017 alles eine einzige Baustelle sein wird, womöglich sogar das Hauptgebäude

• Happy Birthday

sieht auf jeden Fall schon viel besser aus dieses Standbild, aber immer noch nicht ganz so wie es aussehen sollte. Sieht etwas aus wie ein thrillerfizierter Dangerous Ära MJ

Für mich klingts nach Michael, und es klingt
