Michael Jackson's Vision

This is the best DVD Set that I have ever had!! I remember that My Grandma has this DVD set that came out since 2010 and I always love watching and dancing to all of my favorite music videos of Michael Jackson when I was at my Grandma’s House!! And I was just getting it down and killing it myself for doing the moonwalk! LOL😂But I am a huge fan of MJ Myself, and I love this collection a whole lot! My Grandma gave this to me, a few 15 years ago but one of the discs and the cover set got a few scratches when I used it. But although, I had to purchase and buy a new one on Amazon. So I am really 100% satisfied because the golden cover is beautiful and super shiny and It’s IN Brand New Condition!!! All I can really say that this is the best collection of Michael Jackson’s Vision I have ever watched in my life and I enjoyed it!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

We saw The One (MIchael Jackson tribute show in Vegas. This same box set was $98 new in the gift shop! I found the same item here at a fraction of the cost! Qulality seem like-new

So there is no mistake, this review is for "Michael Jackson's Vision Deluxe 3 DVD Box Set".Michael Jackson never made a music video. Yes seriously. What he made were 35 well written, acted, produced, and directed, short films. These short films just happen to contain MJ's music and dancing talent. What you saw on MTV and other music channels back in the day, were very edited down versions of the short films. The videos had opening and closing sequences that were never seen on MTV or VH1. We only saw the video of the recording that the record company was trying to push at the time.MJ's Vision Collection contains all 35 videos on 2 DVD disc. 16 titles on Disc 1 and 19 titles on Disc 2. Roughly 4 hours of MJ genius. (Sorry no BluRay available). The videos are the full length, uncut versions of every short film he made. Many of them have opening and closing credits like "Thriller" and "BAD", because they were scripted, produced and directed like feature films by big name guys like Steven Speilberg, John Landis, Martin Scorsese, Quincy Jones..... and many more. There are several with dozens of big name actors like Robert DiNero, Marlon Brando, Eddie Murphy, Whoopie Goldberg, .... and dozens more that will surprise you. I bet that you will see some of these short films in their entirety for the first time ever. I know I did and it surprised me.There is also a third bonus DVD with 7 more short films. There are 3 by the Jackson 5. Also "Say, Say, Say" with MJ and Paul McCartney. MJ's "They Don't Care About Us" is on disc 2. But this bonus disc has a second "Prison" version of the song. Also the song "WHY" with KT featuring MJ. And finally the real bonus. MJ's song "One More Chance released for the first time. This song has never been seen on TV or on home Video before this collection set.Now for the tech specs for those with home theater and surround sound.The video is clean and clear with good color and good brightness and contrast. No grain, snow, distortion, or color artifacts. I don't know if these short films were remastered or not, but they look like they were. Every film is easy on your eyes and show up great on an HDTV. I played my copy on a Sony DVD progressive scan player connected using the R,G,B, video and coaxial digital audio. (I save the BluRay player for HD discs only.) I was very impressed and I am picky about sound and picture quality. All of the short films are in standard 4:3 frame but the disc is projecting a 16:9 frame with a 4:3 program to the TV display. So like it or not, you will have to put up with the black bars on the sides. But after a while, you somehow don't seem to care.As for the audio..... The soundtrack is only in PCM 2.0 uncompressed - 48KHz - 24 bit sound. There is no Dolby or DTS to compress and ruin the sound. And considering this is only music, there are no other languages or audio tracks to pick from. You get the PCM track that they give you and that is all. It sounded fantastic on my surround system in the Pro-Logic mode. The sound quality is very wide range frequency response with nice deep bass and clean sweet sounding high frequencies. Full Hi-Fi quality on every short film.If you are an MJ fan, this is the only collection of his genius music that you will ever need. No other MJ video collection can come close to this set. As a fan, you will not be sorry you bought this collection. Even if by some slim chance you are NOT a big MJ fan, you will still be amazed at the performances of this collection. You will be highly entertained musically and visually. No matter what anyone thinks of MJ, even when he started getting a little weird, you have to admit that he puts on one heII of a show. The guy was a born entertainer.This is really the only must have MJ video collection on the market. The others are wanna-be's and don't cut it.

I've read multiple complaints here about people being upset over not including certain videos, but here's my take on it.Human Nature was not an official video, nor did he, his record label, studio, estate or anyone with connections to him whatsoever make, approve or consent to the video. I won't go as far as say it was a "fan video", but it's in the same category. I don't care if MTV or VH1 has shown it... they show a lot of things. Therefore, while I think it's not only his best song on Thriller, but one of the best 3 songs he's ever recorded; I'm not in the least bit sad or upset that it wasn't included here.Also, We are the World wasn't an official Michael Jackson video, it was a side project. So I can understand why that's not included either. If they were to include it, it should also be included in DVD sets of videos from every other artist in the video (yes, even Dan Aykroyd).When it comes to Smooth Criminal, which is one of the to 3 songs I mentioned above, I love the version they included. I think they wanted to include the most complete version that's considered an "official" video, and not that actual official video (plus, I HATE that the dance is sped up in the "actual" version, because I can't enjoy it). But I'm also one that thinks the full second verse included in the Moonwalker is the best verse/part of the song, so I'm happy that it's there no matter what the rest of the video looks like (I'd even deal with the nasty blur effect as long as the full verse is there). I had something else to say here but forgot what it was... I think my point is made though.I'm a little upset that the full version of Ghosts isn't included, but I realize DVD's can only have a certain number of GB on it, and/or only be a certain length of time. They probably got really close to that with the second DVD so I can completely understand why the 40 minute movie isn't on there. However, there was room on the third disc for at least the 9 minute video version of the song with the intro and outro. I mean, I know they wanted to do them in order, but Ghosts isn't exactly an "official album track" of his, is it? It could and should have been on the 3rd disc if they wanted to do it right. Including the full 18 minute movie version of Bad plus the 11 minute version of Black or White (with the banned 6-7 minute dancing outro) but not the full Ghosts is just unacceptable. However, I don't really care for Ghosts anyway (the song is mediocre at best, and the video is a disappointment to everything he's ever done... it's so unlike him).I don't really have any other complaints... everything is as it should be. The boxy format doesn't bother me, because when his videos were shot they didn't have big screen or wide screen, so in order to blow them up to be formatted to fit our televisions, they'd have to sacrifice some quality. And I know that's what remastering is for, but I'd rather see the videos in their original untouched format/quality (which I've learned is not how some of his early ones are in this set).Overall, as a lifetime fan of Michael Jackson (for 22 years now) and never having owned any of his sets, except for albums (no DVD's, no concerts, tours, behind the scenes, collections, etc.), I have to say I'm very pleased, impressed and excited at this over-the-top collection that I can sit and watch together, as a whole, for the very first time. Some videos (4 or 5 to be exact) I didn't even know existed... but some shouldn't have, and I can understand why I'd never seen them before (in the case of Speed Demon and Liberian Girl, for example).So, all-in-all, this set amazes me, and I'm glad I bought it. Because I now own one of the greatest, if not the greatest, collection of music videos ever filmed and compiled. I just wish they would have waited a month and then included the Hold My Hand video.

Love all his songs brings back memories
