Michael Jackson wanted to star in a movie

Recommended Posts

Article

 

Here’s a film that could have knocked “Gigli” off the worst-flicks lists: Michael Jackson wanted to star in a movie about a man who turns into a car that’s driven around by a little boy.

 

The singer — who’s facing child molestation charges — was trying to get a film called “Hot Rod” made, according to “Jersey Girl” director Kevin Smith.

 

“It was about Michael Jackson morphing into a car,” “Smith tells Playboy magazine in an issue just hitting newsstands. “Jackson was behind it, and he wanted it to be this story about a guy, played by himself, who hangs out with a little boy, and this little boy gets into the car and drives him around.”

 

Smith says it was the weirdest script he ever was asked to direct, but adds, “In retrospect, I’d love to make that movie. But it wouldn’t be anything like the version Jackson or the studio wanted to see.”

 

What the hell was he thinking?

HEY! Michael turned to a car in Moonwalker and that movie 0wned your FACE~!.

Okay...I'm still not really sure what the hell that movie was about, but it kicked some types of ass.

 

...

 

And Michael was the SHIOT in "The Wiz" so I would trust his movie decisions...

This movie sounds both infinitely better and worse than the "Final Days of Edgar Allan Poe" movie concept he was interested in a while back.

Wonder what car he'd turn into?

No, seriously, I can't think of anything funny to add to that.

Considering Prince also wanted Smith to make a documentary on him (well, not him, just kids randomly talking about him in a well-furnished room), I think it's safe to say that Kevin Smith gets asked to make the weirdest things.

So, uh...is the point of this thread to take cheap shots at MJ?

Yes

 

I hear if a girl tries to get in the car, the alarm goes off and she gets ejected
