Michael Jackson - History On Film - Volume II [1997] (2008-04-16)

Love this pack - Just love Michael Jackson and his musicGreat Guy!!

Two hours of genius (2007-06-02)

From start to finish virtually every film is breathtaking. Particular highlights, though, for dance fans are Billie Jean from Motown 25; the gravity defying moves of Smooth Criminal; the stunning 1995 MTV Awards; Scream and, of course, Thriller and Beat It. However, one of my other favourites is Blood on the Dance Floor. Unlike other reviewers I love the Refugee Camp remix and there's something different about Jackson in this video (and I'm not talking about the cosmetic surgery!) He looks better for not being stick thin, he looks more relaxed and the video oozes slinkiness! The drumming on They Don't Care About Us is hypnotic while Stranger in Moscow is a stylish, touching film in which Jackson takes more of a back seat. The only clip I don't like is Liberian Girl - it feels dated.Also there is a lack of information in the DVD case itself - it's very basic.

Re-discover Michael Jackson! Incredible sound and picture! (2007-01-17)

This DVD is great! The sound is superb whether you're listening via sorround sound or on a normal TV. The videos are timeless. With a new album out this year there's never been a better time to re-discover his music! The opening is a 4 min video where soldiers and the public run towards a huge statue of Michael. It's a great video, the crowd is so large it makes me wonder how they shot it. Then one video after another, including the uncut version of Thriller (like the first History DVD) and the most expensive music video of all time Scream. The MTV performamce is mostly the song Dangerous but it's a great piece of music history. The performance is over 12 mins long and it does include alot of Michaels famous songs. The Billie Jean opener is amazing, the first time the world saw the moonwalk. I stopped likeing Michael jackson for years and ordered this on a whim. Jermaine (Michael's brother)was in the big brother house, within a few minutes I was a fan again. These videos draw you in and keep you coming back to them. I won't list the videos as they're already listed elsewhere but this is Highly Recommended (as is part one) You won't be disapointed.

The King Of Pop Lives On! (2005-04-23)

This is one of these DVD's where you have to flip sides of the disc. So you know what's on which side, here is the tracklisting:

SIDE 1:TeaserBillie Jean (from Motown 25: Yesterday, Today and Forever)Beat ItLiberian GirlSmooth Criminal1995 MTV Video Music Awards PerformanceThriller

SIDE 2:Scream (Vocal Duet with Michael Jackson, and Janet Jackson)Childhood (Theme from "Free Willy 2")You Are Not AloneEarth SongThey Don't Care About UsStranger In MoscowBlood On The Dance Floor (Refugee Camp Mix)Brace YourselfCredits

The best side is Side 1. The MTV performance is great but I don't know why everyone calls it the Dangerous performance. I don't like the way they have replaced Blood On The Dance Floor with a Refugee Camp Mix of it. Also, the orginal video has the MJ Megaremix while the DVD doesn't and I like the Megaremix better than any of the songs on this DVD. Also, I would have liked the prison version of They Don't Care About Us & the Tony Moran Remix of HIStory on the DVD. If you like the King of Pop or his music videos, buy this DVD!

I Love This So Much!!! (2004-12-18)

Well, this is so much better than HIStory Vol. 1!!! I love the teaser (must see) where everyone goes to see the History statue and Michael with the military people, in my opinion it's the best non-music video Michael's ever done! Also, another highlight is Billie Jean (Motown 25)where he premiered the moonwalk and tripped!!! Oh, and don't forget the MTV performance, oh my God, that is so cool!!! I love the Scream video and the Childhood video as well! But there's 2 disadvanteges...

1. On the original VHS there was the MJ Megaremix but it's not on the DVD!!!

2. They replaced Blood On The Dance Floor with some crap Refugee Camp Mix!!!
