It’s ok pretty soon there won’t be no HBO. Because the Jackson estate will own it. So have your fun now carma is definitely gonna bite you in the butt. And she will not be gentle. I will pray that god has mercy on you all.
Stephanie Safechuck should get a reward. She was hilarious.
Well, all these boasts and awards just prove that the film is something custom. Just the uncle with the big ears is urgently needed to raise high the whole world
Haha, Deadline comments policy: “and don’t get your facts wrong” and Leaving Neverland without any facts wins an award for News and Information. Oh, the irony.
How does a documentary based on lies and contradictions wins “outstanding achievement”?
