It might have been fate that MTV was born at the same time people began to notice the rare talent and artistic ingenuity of Michael Jackson. It proved to be a perfect match between the new television network and the young rising icon. Early on, Michael saw MTV’s potential as a force of its own and understood that it offered him the chance to pioneer a whole new visual style through which people could see music, not just listen to it. For the first time, artists had the opportunity to truly shape a vision of a story around their songs. For Michael, this meant treating the song as a “script” and creating a stand-alone film to tell that story. In fact, Michael referred to each of these productions as a "short film" and not a “music video.” No other artist contributed more to the development of this art form than Michael Jackson. Just look at the impact of Thriller , which was recently named the first (and only) music video ever to be inducted by the Library of Congress into the National Film Registry - an elite collection of only a few hundred films. In addition to this, Michael’s vision had immense cultural impact . The enormous popularity of his short films proved to MTV Executives that they were wrong about what their audience wanted; it was Michael who broke through that initial barrier and created opportunity for future African American artists. Here, for the first time, is the complete collection of all 35 of the short films produced by Michael during his career as a solo artist - 10 of which are appearing on DVD for the first time. All of the short films have been meticulously restored and remastered for the ultimate audio and visual experience and a bonus DVD includes 7 additional videos including “Enjoy Yourself” with The Jacksons, “Say Say Say” with Paul McCartney and the Previously Unreleased video for “One More Chance”. This is a true representation of Michael Jackson’s Vision . Review: Overly pleased, not disappointed - 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. Review: Gets my "Fan Stamp Of Aproval" - Happy! Surprise! is what I felt when I finally, finally decided to open and watch MJ's Vision. I think this set is very nicely done and though it may not be comprehensive enough for some, it proves more than satisfactory. I'd say that if you can't own anything else, but you've got this, then you're good because it provides you with the many facets of Michael Jackson. I love that they threw in the bonus CD and we get to see pumped up, excited Mike in Blame It On The Boogie and the Enjoy Yourself piece is both classic and priceless! Such a good job was done in putting this together. I'm impressed with what all you get for the price. How good of them to include She's Out Of My Life. I like how MJ is just sitting on a stool, no bells and whistles, dressed in everyday clothing, singing that song so beautifully and what appears effortlessly, yet you see and feel his emotion. That, too, is priceless. Many of my favorite short films are the ones that every MJ fan adores, so I'll skip those, and tell you about one of my favorites that I don't consider a short. That woud be the Blood On The Dance Floor video. I think of this one as a true music video. What I really like about this one is that it almost seems as if Michael is at a real club, and though he is telling a story with his song, he's rocking a french braid and eyelashes and managing to look androngynous and sexy masculine all at the same time, while working it out on the floor with Suzie in a very un-choreographed way. This video has been extended and I like that I get to see Mike dancing in this natural form. I want to add, that it also seems that the song was remixed; it didn't need that but like I said it extends the length of the video and therefore, Michael's dancing with a partner is also extended. I won't go on and on, but you will if you get this. The 3 discs provide tons of entertainment and I will be watching over and over again. Of course, it's a great gift for any MJ fan, that really goes without saying, but the packaging is attractive and these discs are well worth more than $29.99. And, yes, there will be more MJ stuff available in time, but this is what is happening right now. Oh, and this far out matches Michael Jackson Number Ones.

Gets my "Fan Stamp Of Aproval"
Happy! Surprise! is what I felt when I finally, finally decided to open and watch MJ's Vision. I think this set is very nicely done and though it may not be comprehensive enough for some, it proves more than satisfactory. I'd say that if you can't own anything else, but you've got this, then you're good because it provides you with the many facets of Michael Jackson.

The Only "Must Have" MJ Collection.
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.

D-Amazing 5240!
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!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

Missed the mark for a TRUE Vision but still a keeper
The top reviewer said it all best and others have talked about the aspect ratio, so I won't delve into that, even tho they are major complaints and do ruin the enjoyment. But I feel compelled to comment because as a long time Michael Jackson fan it was and has been extremely difficult to deal with his loss. He was a true work of art to the world and was never appreciated the way he should have been. People hated him for such horrid reasons--they hated the way he looked, he loved being child like, he loved kids because he never got to be one, he was black (yes, that is a reason) and he had incredible influence and power. That said, Sony *cough* money mongrel murderers *cough* had a chance to really give their fans a true testament to the genius of Michael Jackson. This set is very pretty, I love the cover and such, but sadly you do feel a little bit of the disinterest that Sony has in giving us a real 'Vision' of his talent. Michael is gone now, so for them to come out and boast another box set we should get the most ultimate that we can get. There is no excuse for 'Ghosts' being in its short form. None at all. Not only is that a very overlooked and mostly unknown piece of genius, it spoke a lot of what Michael was going through being mocked and humiliated, and now more than ever we need something in his OWN words. Even with the obvious undertones in the short film, That short film is brilliant, I only saw it once and it deserves to be seen again. Somehow, some making of videos should have been included, where is the making of Thriller?! and I'm sure there is something on 'Scream' lurking around. Oh sorry, that's coming later to get more money. Anyway, all versions of BOTDF should have been included as well. And the true cut of 'Black or White' should have been in there--with racial slurs and all. That was Michael's 'Vision' in the beginning and we all know the back lash he suffered from that fall out. THINGS I'M GRATEFUL FOR: I'm happy to see the prison version of They don't really care about us. That is a great video and it was pretty much banned and forgotten. Love seeing 'Say, Say, Say' I know a lot don't care for it, but I love the song and Michael is a cutie in the video. It is hard to find elsewhere. 'Can you feel it' is another gem. I know some may think why pull this one song out of nowhere to be included, but it is another hard to find video with him and the brothers. Not to mention a really great song. Happy to have it. "Who is it" The vision of David Fincher still has us scratching our heads. I don't think people cared for the abstract expression this video left us with. Nor did they care for a Michael Jackson video where he half appeared and did no dancing whatsoever. This video is confusing, but Michael looks luscious and it is a rare one indeed. Also, as someone mentioned, some video quality is not as good as others, yes, this refers to 'Billie Jean' and 'Don't stop till you get enough' Sad but true. I'm not 100% sure why, they couldn't transfer it properly, not sure, but it's not as sharp. Sound is great however. While most already have #1s and the 'History' DVD's one might say 'why do I need to rebuy all his videos again?" Well, you don't. Which is why this set is a hit and a miss. I have one History DVD and that gave me a handful of videos I have already. There are some goodies, which includes the lovely thick booklet with delightful photos to go along with every video including the names of the directors and production date which (for me anyway) I found useful. This still does not make me feel like I am holding a 'lost treasure.' Even with 'One more Chance' which was hard for me to finish. That video felt rushed and incomplete and it is just difficult for me to enjoy it, even if he does look happy. Michael was well on his way to giving us so much more of himself and this is proof of that, he was working on new music and it was coming, so I'm sorry but I can't go into that video, it's hard for me to watch it more than once to give more of a review. The biggest selling point is really just having all his videos together for safe keeping. I will say that--for now--this is a really good video collection for him and pretty much the only true one out there. If you want all his vids in a one stop and shop get this, it's not too pricey either. If you have all his vids spread out over other DVD's don't bother unless you really do just want them all in one place. I just can't say that the extras warrant you picking it up. Beautiful set but leaves a lot to be desired if you already have all of his videos already. Overall, it makes me sad that Sony screwed him and his fans--AGAIN. But at the same time is wonderfully packaged and pretty to look at. Very convenient to own. I'm not trying to deter anyone from buying, but I think we have all done enough re-buying of his music already. Just think about what you already own and what you really want. And as always, keep loving Michael!

The Only Michael Jackson DVD Set You'll Need
I love this three-disc set! I didn't realize it when I purchased it, but the booklet that comes with it has high-quality photography from each short film. It includes information such as the album the song was on, production dates, and production locations. Also, the pictures on the cover "move" as you tilt the cover, so that's fun. I do have a few criticisms. These may have already been mentioned in other reviews, but here we go. The first one is that all three DVDs run like a movie. The short films do not have their own "chapter," so if you wanted to skip to a favorite song, you'd have to go through the whole DVD to find it. I watch a whole DVD in one setting, so this isn't too much of a big deal for me, but it would have been a nice feature to include. The second criticism is the version they used for the "Blood on the Dance Floor" short film. It's a remix, and I hate it. I have no idea why they would choose this version when the original is SO good. It isn't an accurate "vision" for this song; Michael didn't write it as a remix. I was so looking forward to watching this short film, and when it started, I was extremely disappointed. For me, the remix does not do the song or the short film justice. The last criticism is that "Ghosts" definitely should have been included in its entirety. That film is absolutely brilliant! Everyone should have the opportunity to experience the whole story. It's an amazing piece of work and shows us, yet again, the genius of Michael Jackson. It really is unfortunate that the full length was not included. So, even though the last two criticisms are huge for me, I'm super happy that I have this set. It's great having all these epic short films in one place. I highly recommend it!

Amazing Love It
This DVD set has all the videos Michael has done except for eight. It even has some that he did with his brothers and one with his nephews. This is a must for MJ fans. The pluses: It has the videos from off the wall all the way through to his Blood on the dance floor album. It also has the entire short films of Thriller, Bad, Can you feel it, Remember the time & Blood on the dance floor. It even has Say say say. The minuses: Even though it does have Ghost, it isn't the awesome short film, it's just the standard. The eight videos that I wish was included are: Dancing machine, Body, Torture, 2300 Jackson street, ABC, Music and me, Who's loving you & Ben. I think it's still worth getting.
