Couldn’t resist a New York Post-style headline.
The new Michael Jackson documentary/concert film “Michael Jackson’s This is It” continues to sell tickets even though the film is still three weeks away from release.
Movietickets.com says the film has already cracked the 25 advanced ticket sellers of all time. Now, that list is a modern invention – my grandparents didn’t sidle up to movietickets.com or Fandango to secure their seat at a “Gone with the Wind” showing.
But it’s still a remarkable testament to the public’s appetite for all things Michael Jackson.
