The King of Pop Michael Jackson finally gets the music biopic treatment, and it has everyone feeling something.While critics and fans might be divided, I share a filmmaker's perspective on why the movie is what it is. There are good things with Jaafar Jackson, Colman Domingo, Juliano Valdi, and an incredible soundtrack of Michael's biggest hits, but just as many negative things that drag this movie down and make the prospect for a sequel a tough sell. From the Jackson 5 to Thriller, this movie plays the hits, but is that enough to make the movie deserving of MJ.Intro - 0:00What is the point of a Biopic 0:27Michael fact v. fiction 3:32The good within 7:42Why not just watch MJ on YT 10:30Leaderboard 13:44I'm Cory and I'm a Writer, Director, and On Set Sound Mixer in Los Angeles, CA with more than a decade of experience helping bring movies and television to life.

Markiplier has taken his talents to a new screen, the big screen!His debut feature is Iron Lung, a video game adaptation that he self financed and I discuss the movie itself, but more interesting than that is the fact that this indie movie was so successful in the box office it may change the game for film distribution.

Critics and the Letterboxd-erati are going crazy about One Battle After Another, so much so that all the conversations are about how excellent it is, and how many Oscar nominations it's going to get.This movie is really good, but its not for everyone.
