I bought this after reading Darwin Porter's tell-all biography, Jacko: His Rise and Fall. Never having seen a Michael Jackson video before, I was understandably curious, and since Porter told the story of how the video was put together as damage control following MJ's first trial and his crumbling marriage with Lisa Marie, it seemed like a good way to take a look. It was. Thriller, Billy Jean, Bad, Black or White, and Save the World are all there. What a collection! Thriller actually turned out to be a lot of fun, mostly because even Michael didn't seem to be taking himself too seriously back then. But starting especially with the nearly hysterical Bad, all he was able to do next was to repeat the same formula again and again. The formula is: ordinary Michael appears, ordinary Michael is transformed into something magical, magical Michael gyrates in front of a line of chorus boys, magical Michael turns back into ordinary Michael, and the world is supposed to be a better place. Sad, sad, sad! But fascinating!Read full review
Watching these Music videos makes you feel like you're back in the 80's!, Michael Jackson truly revolutionized the music video industry, And he didn't just make "Music Videos", But mini-movies or "short films" as he called them, With actors and an actual story, Who can forget the 14 minute epic music video that was the "Thriller" with it's eye popping make-up by Rick Baker for the zombie and werewolf effects , This DVD includes a rarely seen 18 minute music video for "Bad" Directed by Martin Scorsese and an early appearance by actor Wesley Snipes, The picture for this DVD is crisp and sharp, The sound is lound and crystal clear, This DVD is definitely a must have or must own for any Michael Jackson super fan.

I LOVE the Michael Jackson History video because it is an important part of the history of music videos; this DVD includes some of the first music videos recorded and one can appreciate the technological advancements we have made in today's world. This DVD is also symbolic of the ingenuity of Michael Jackson because one can see, in retrospect, how advanced he was. The younger generation will learn that many dances and songs they've heard are NOT NEW; they will learn that Michael Jackson was the ONE who started many fads and cliches. Additionally, this DVD is a reminder of a young man who was a musical genius although he was quite different from most musicians. Michael Jackson fans can see the changes in Michael from the way God made him (physically) to the way modern science changed him (aesthetically). I, personally, enjoyed Michael Jackson's singing from the time he began; he was only four years older than I am, so I remember watching the Jackson 5 on American Bandstand and listening to Rockin Robin and ABC in elementary school. These are some beautiful memories than watching this video brought back to me. It is also a way for me to remember one of my favorite music artists in my lifetime. Each song took me to a different time in my life; for example, one song reminded me of going to the Friday night after-football game dances in the early 80's. I must admit that there is NOTHING in this video that I did not like. I enjoyed EVERY SINGLE VIDEO, but that's just me. I highly recommend this DVD to all true music lovers and history buffs and, of course, all of Michael Jackson's fans. Anyone who truly appreciates the art of making music will HAVE to have this DVD Video collection. Finally, as a public school teacher, I believe that this DVD can be used to inspire students to dream BIG; they need to learn about the history of music as well as history of our nation. They need to be able to see the huge advancements in technology and be ready for their own future. Clearly, the Michael Jackson collection of videos, History, is a must-have for every United States citizen who appreciates music and wants to know more about the history of music videos. It is also a must have for ALL Michael Jackson fans worldwide. I know I will enjoy this DVD until the day I die. And I will always remember Michael Jackson, and I know that I was lucky by to live in the same time period that he did.Read full review

The art work is pretty similar to HIStory past present and future book I Album.The frontal cover has an Image of MJ's Statue for the history tour promotion.The rear part of the cover has two beautiful snaps of MJ from his thriller era.It also has the detailed descriptions of the dvd contents on the rear part. beautifully and briefly written. The Disc: It comes with a Golden disc again similar to HIStory past present and future book I. It looks so sexy. The Contents. Starts off with an interactive menu offering various options like chapter marks, Subtitle and navigation options.The back ground contains some excellent images of MJ. The Dvd Starts off with the History Teaser. Then comes the brace yourself video. The it gets off with MJ's Classic work.Contains the greatest and most loved videos of MJ like Billie jean, Beat it, Thriller, Remember the time.Heal the world etc. The best part of this dvd is it contains the rare to find versions of "Black or white(panther version)",Full version of "Bad" and very rare full version of " The way you make me feel". It also has the very less found "Rock with you" The dvd ends with an instumental version of the very famous "Heal the World" Overall, This Dvd gets 5 stars from me as it caters a very good collection of MJ's videos.

This DVD features Jackson's short films, and includes extensive at-the-shoot footage from "Black Or White," as well as 2 versions of "Heal the World" and the "Dangerous" tour highlights. Special features include Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound/PCM Stereo, English Subtitles, Discography, Instant Chapter Access and moving menus. After pioneering the epic music video with his ground breaking short movies for "Thriller," "Bad" (directed by the acclaimed feature auteur Michael Jackson,) and others, the King of Pop's next project was awaited with great expectations. And Jackson, as always, managed to meet these with his album, "Dangerous," for which he continued his pattern of making innovative, trend-setting videos. DANGEROUS is a home video which includes the uncut versions of these videos -- from the crazy morphing effects of "Black and White" to the exotic royalty of "Remember The Time." In addition, the previously unseen short film "Gone Too Soon" plus "Who Is It," which has never been released in the U.S., are included.Read full review
I never buy Michael Jackson products "new", so as not to put even a penny of royalties in his pocket. Instead, I buy them 2nd-hand on E-Bay. Why? While he's still rich enough that the little of my cash he'd get won't matter in the grand scheme of things, I refuse, on principle, to support with my personal $$, his "questionable lifestyle", which includes, if the documentation shown on Thesmokinggun.com is accurate, Jackson's seemingly intense sexual attraction to, and fondness for, very-underage, pre-teen boys. (Read the original court documents there yourself, if you doubt me). Before any of this was known, of course, I'd been a fan of Michael's work since he was the leader of the Jackson 5 and I were both kids, (we're the same age). I bought "Thriller", and saw The Jacksons live at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in 1984, on the group's "Victory Tour". The man's talent is huge, simply jaw-dropping, and this video collection is proof, especially the earlier videos, before his surgically-disfigured face resembled that of Lon Chaney's 1929 "Phantom of the Opera" movie character. (Google "Lon Chaney 'Phantom' images to truly understand this comparison.) It's a damned shame that such an astonishing talent is apparently wrapped in so tragic a figure. Get some serious therapy, MJ--Your talents deserve better!Read full review
