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. “Thriller,” which was rnamed 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. 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 seven 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: Brilliant! Love it! - Michael's short films all on one collection! It's absolutely fabulous, the quality is great, the menu's etc are great, the book is great and the packaging is Awesome! it has a lovely hologram front to it which really brings it to life. Michael Jackson - A legend Has full versions of short films such as bad, thriller etc. Only possible complaint would be not having the History March video sequence from other dvd's - but technically that's not a music video anyway. Without a doubt a Wonderful Collection of the best Music videos of all time. A GREAT BUY! Review: Michael Jackson's best boxset to date. - A great product with fantastic packaging, looks the part in any collection however would've liked to see upscaled versions of 'Speed Demon', 'Smooth Criminal' etc as they have had blu ray release with 'Moonwalker'.

Excellent
This 3 disc set is in my opinion the definitive representation of Michael Jackson solo musical career as all his major Short Films are contained in this set. The picture and music is of a very high quality and the presentation of the title screens alone is very professional. The Holographic Case is beautifully designed and the companion booklet informative and interesting. DISC 1 1 Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough 2 Rock With You 3 She's Out of My Life 4 Billie Jean 5 Beat It 6 Thriller 7 Bad 8 The Way You Make Me Feel 9 Man In the Mirror 10 Dirty Diana 11 Smooth Criminal 12 Another Part of Me 13 Speed Demon 14 Come Together 15 Leave Me Alone 16 Liberian Girl DISC 2 1 Black or White 2 Remember The Time 3 In the Closet 4 Jam 5 Heal The World 6 Give In To Me 7 Who Is It 8 Will You Be There 9 Gone Too Soon 10 Scream 11 Childhood 12 You Are Not Alone 13 Earth Song 14 They Don't Care About Us 15 Stranger In Moscow 16 Blood On The Dancefloor 17 Ghosts 18 You Rock My World 19 Cry DISC 3 (Extras) 1 Blame It On the Boogie - The Jacksons 2 Enjoy Yourself - The Jacksons 3 Can You Feel It - The Jacksons 4 Say Say Say - Paul McCartney & Michael Jackson 5 They Don't Care About Us - Prison version 6 Why? - 3T featuring Michael Jackson 7 One More Chance - previously unreleased I would highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to capture the essence of Jackson's visual and musical legacy.

Suberbly packaged DVD
Couldn't wait to watch this DVD Collection, and in general wasn't disappointed. I love everything Michael Jackson does. BUT why oh why did Sony put that awful remix version of 'Blood on the Dancefloor' on this DVD, I'm pleased I have the original on another Jackson offering. I also would have liked to have seen the full version of 'Ghost' on here but I guess Sony will make the most of all these short films and Live Performances of Michael's and will release them over the next few years. I think the packaging was very nice and enjoyed the Booklet too, all in all well worth the money and a lovely keepsake.

Aspect ratio - shame for Sony!
Wonderful box set, except for one thing: aspect ratio. It says on the back cover "Formatted for widescreen televisions". Because of the ratio they made (16:9), it's like the image of the videos was stretched to 640X480 (in terms of resolution), instead of 720X576. That means you don't get the full image, only a small percent of it. Shame for Sony! Let the image in the format it was meant to be (4:3) and let us chose from the remote control the aspect ratio we want!

Not what it could have been
When I heard of this, I was delighted. All in One Piece. But I was a little bit dissapointed The set is actually beautiful. The cover are like a movie of 2 seconds from the videos when you rotate them up and down, and I kept watching at it for a long time. Really an awesome choice. There is a booklet inside, which features pictures from all the video shoots, most of them at least. It has some new photos, but most can be found on the internet. But personally I like these booklets, so I'm happy with it. Now on to the videos. The intros before each video is nice, and the floating menu is cool as the videos and sounds pass you by. There are three discs as mentioned, in order of release, except the third one which has some rare ones. Michael is wonderful ofc, as he is the master of videos for me. Overall the dvd has all the videos released made my Michael, even some from the Jacksons, and one made with Paul McCaurtney and previously unreleased. It also has the One More Chanse video that was never released. It's nothing special, since MIchael just dances a little on tale to a crowd, hardly showing his face. Something you probably know, is that Ghosts video is only 4 minutes of the actually 30 minute video. The decision for that is unknown, but will leave fans bittersweet, as it's one of his best works. THE QUALITY! - is not what It could have been. They are not remastered from what I can tell, some are even worse than I've seen elsewhere. The biggest issue with them is that most video have a black box around them. I've thought it through and concluded that's maybe the aspect ratio they were made in, but I don't see why they couldn't have been stretched to full screen, unless they would lose quality. Though I have only played it on my computer. This a REGION 2 dvd, so won't work on regular dvd players, and I didn't work in windows player, only VCL. Some videos are widesceen because they were filmed that way, but only 10% of the videos. It's a shame. I think they missed a chance to release the best video complication ever. However, it still has all the videos in there, and it's good to have, so I'm satisfied I guess to an extent. LOVE THE COVER!

I cannot believe anyone would give this 1 star and why a Michael Jackson fan would even complain. It is selfish and petty in my mind and people will still complain that they have seen it or have some fuzzy footage somewhere of Ghosts if they decide to put that to DVD!! Sony have a 7 year contract ample time to bring out concert footage and full versions of Ghosts etc., To have all his short films in one box set is a brilliant move by Sony, no more hunting around for different dvds, youtube, fuzzy copies etc., There are also may older fans who do not have the internet and would not have seen some of these films but to me the biggest factor is this will introduce a new generation of fans to Michaels brilliance and hopefully they will fall in love with his artistry and as a man as we did. It is not always about the fans and fans should be happy that more people are going to be introduced to Michael - his work has been buried under tabloid trash for too many years.

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.

Michael Jackson's Vision DVD
Está en anamórfico 16:9, pero los vídeos cuyo formato son 4:3 están a ese ratio (está pensado para televisores panorámicos, se ven con las franjas negras a izquierda y derecha). La imagen varía de calidad de un vídeo a otro, pero en general aceptable y algunos se ven bastante bien, sobre todo en pantalla de televisión. La calidad de sonido es excelente, estéreo, un LPCM que suena de fábula, sólo por eso, como recopilatorio de canciones merece la pena. Aparte el librito que incluye, la funda lenticular y demás le da una buena presentación (no entro en gustos estéticos).
