Oh, Boy.

So, uhhh, let's talk about this for a second.

As I just discovered on Netflix, a movie was released earlier this year exploring the possibility that Michael Jackson faked his own death à la 2Pac or Elvis. Really? I mean, is it not possible for an iconic celebrity to die without people going all, "They're alive!!!" over it?

At least this documentary looks promising. It was created by an investigative journalist/filmmaker (is there a person left on earth whose title doesn't contain a "/"?) named Pearl, Jr. A super high quality trailer for the film contains a great voice over and some awesome Arial and Chalkboard font blurbs, including the clever "Millions BeLIEve!!!" set against a black background. 165 people like the film on Facebook. Oh, and it was on Pay-Per-View first thing, so you know it's good y'all.

I just hope MJ, as well as any other celebrity who thinks they're cool enough to be alive while actually being dead, is also savvy enough to know they're in danger of being found out. As one observant film fan noted on YouTube:

"HE IS ALIVE HE JUST FAKED HIS DEATH SO DAT HE CUD LIV A NORMAL LIFE HE IS IN DISGUISE SUMWHERE..........AT THE MEMORIAL SERVICE DID DEY OPEN DA CASKET NO BUT A JAMES BROWNS YES AT BIGGIE SMALLS YES AT 2PACS NO...2PAC IS ALIVE HE PLAYS SOCCER HES IN DISGUISE WITH DREADS AND BLEACHED SKIN......AT MJ MEMORIAL SERVICE IT SEEMED LIKE HOS FAMILY WAS LAUGHIN Y WUD DEY LAUGH AT A FUNERAL DATS DA TRUTH."

Yep.
