the final word on ‘This Is It’

Never mind what I or any other critics have to say about Michael Jackson’s This Is It. Elizabeth Taylor has tweeted the final words, 140 characters at a time:

It is the single most brilliant piece of filmmaking I have ever seen. It cements forever Michael's genius in every aspect of creativity.

And we have this piece of film to remind us forever and ever that once there was such a man. God kissed him.

You owe it to yourselves and your loved ones to see this again and again. Memorize it and say to yourselves, "I saw genius in my lifetime"

I truly believe this film should be nominated in every category conceivable.

What else needs to be said?

Liz was great as Lucille II in Arrested Development.

This whole thing has been a troll-baitin' LOL riot. Good times. :)

Sorry to sound dumb if you're joking JoshDM but Lucille II was Liza Minelli, not Liz Taylor.

"Single most brilliant piece of filmmaking?" This from a woman who has personally worked with Mike Nichols, Franco Zeffirelli, George Stevens, et. al.?

I'm waiting for her to say, "I loved it. It was much better than *Cats.* I'm going to see it again and again."

Elizabeth Taylor lost her mind many many years ago.

This Is It

· North American box office: ‘A Christmas Carol’ generates little holiday cheer
· question of the day: Is it a cop out to say a movie is “for the fans”?
· best Michael Jackson comment ever
· Michael Jackson’s This Is It (review)
· my week at the movies: ‘Gentlemen Broncos,’ ‘Michael Jackson’s This Is It,’ ‘Creation,’ ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox,’ ‘The Fourth Kind,’ ‘Pirate Radio’ (aka ‘The Boat That Rocked’), ‘Collapse’
· the oh-no! DVD of the week: ‘Michael Jackson: The Inside Story: What Killed the King of Pop?’
· U.K. box office: ‘A Christmas Carol’ not so jolly
· question of the day: What actor(s) would you bring forward or send backward in time so they could work with stars of other eras?
· FX overload is killing next season’s TV; Sammy Hagar comes out as alien infiltree and crazy person; Brad Pitt’s ‘World War Z’ probably dead; more: leftover links
· question of the day: How does the news of celebrity deaths affect you?
