Fred Astaire passed away June 22, 1987 which was also about 2 months before the Bad album was released. It's possible that MJ specifically lifted his Smooth Criminal outfit from Fred Astaire's outfit in The Band Wagon because he had JUST passed away at the time and wanted to pay tribute to him (IDK if the short film was specifically shot before or after he died, but that's just a theory)
How fabulous is it to see him and his team creating and executing one of the jewels in his king of pop crown. This is the stuff the public should be watching.
I think I finally understand the scene where they were all yelling and feeling the emotion… I’ve watched Smooth Criminal for YEARS and never understood that scene. But after hearing Michael explain it, I get it now! 😂
I always LOVED it as a child. I loved the whole build up where they're all chanting " Annie are you okay, are you okay Annie" and then MJ screams "ANNIE, ANNIE ARE YOU OKAY", all together "ARE YOU OKAY ANNIE", then boom the music starts again. CHRIST it always gave/gives me goosebumps 🥵 One of many many reasons why MJ is above alll !!!
MJ was so involved with all his Short Films and involved with alot more than we all saw or figured MJ was/is a true genius Long Live The King Of Music Forever!😇🙌🏽👑💖🔥💫💯(Smooth Criminal Short Film Just Like All Of MJ’s Short Films Is Such A Masterpiece! There’s Definitely More Out There Of Behind The Scenes Footage Of Smooth Criminal And Other Short Films Y’all Have To Check That Out Together As Well)
Fred Astair's choreographer Hermes Pan was there; he said Fred would have loved it. I learned this fro th MJCAST interview with Vincent Paterson. He talked about the making of Smooth Criminal, including getting dancers.
For sure Smooth Criminal is Michael's best video; yes, Thriller was excellent and groundbreaking - trailblazing, no doubt about it; but Michael was all about growth and doing/being greater and better with everything he did, and Smooth Criminal was spectacular, my absolute favorite! Thanks you guys for giving this wonderful work the love it deserves!!!!
Smooth Criminal has a very special place in my heart. I hadn't seen this entire video before, so it was cool watching this footage and learning new things about it. The drill team reminded me of the fact that Michael hired real gang members for Beat It. I also had no idea Robert De Niro was there!
this short film was the first and the last time we saw the circle moonwalk in a MJ video. Michael only did the move in concert from 1984 to 1988. it is his greatest move, i feel.
@@Snyper1405 i noticed that too. he did do it in Captain EO also but that is not a short film. it would have been soo cool to see multiple dancers moonwalk with Michael in a group. i am sure they thought about that it just probably didn't work somehow.
@@CharlesMosley129 yes true Captain EO isn't considered a short music video, but it was awesome when he did do it in that movie. It's amazing how you pick up these little details over time. I find it very fascinating and to know the process of how it's done by Michael and the amazing creative geniuses he's worked with
Hi MJ FANGIRL! I just love your videos. You and Randell really looks good together. I think I saw Randall on Lego Masters. Anyway, keep going with the videos. I saw you all eating chicken and stuff with the last one. You guys keep it up .💜💜💜
First off..glad to see you and randall do another video; you two could be twins or blood-related. I always enjoy behind the scenes . I would of liked if michael was shown interacting with the dancers and how the robot was created. I'm pretty sure michael has his personal video footage. Til next time.
Mj fan girl and Randall, thank you so much! This is my first time seeing background seens ,creative process of smooth criminal! Its amazing! Its great to see Michael is heavily involved in everything and thought out everything! Seeing Gregory peck and Robert de Nero on the set is so great! ❤🙏👑👍✌🦋🌻
@@MJFANGIRLTV thank you so much!!! 🙏 yes, its from Detail shop and I bought another one from them I wanted for a long time with only Michael 's beautiful eyes printed at the front, I love it so much! ❤🙏👑👍✌🦋🌻

'VERY SO FACINATING & INTERESTING TO KNOW, THAT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT OTHER OF MJ'S OLD 'HOLLYWOOD' FRIENDS THERE WERE EVEN THERE, BEHIND THE SCENES, ON-SET OF MOONWALKER THERE BACK THEN.'

they actually made the mj head part of the robat and it moved and he had it in his neverland ranch it reminding me of Iron man also I love the movie moonwalker its so cool
Great video! I actually never saw the behind the scenes on smooth criminal and yeah I think this is more difficult to do than triller I think triller only had about 30 zombies dancers
Hello mj fan girl and Randall I hope and pray that you both are having a wonderful fantastic awesome bless safe beautiful day ps you too enjoy the rest of your day love you both stay safe 🙏😊❤💜💛
Beautiful! I have not seen this before! Thank you MJFangirl and Randall! This was so fun.Omgosh he is just sooooo amazing!! I want to see everything Michael. Everything he did was so great!!! I love how he had actors he knew, invited to come watch the filming!! How exciting for them! See you next time! Love and peace….❤️ps I love how happy everyone was on set! You could see and feel the excitement!! Love seeing Michael in his total element!!
I'm just happy to know that in 2023 I'm not the only fan who's still in this deep with Michael Jackson, I only wish financially I could buy some of the nicer and more of the thing's in demand and some stuff that maybe there wasn't many items around that I could get.....doesn't cost to dream ❤
Finally got to view this video. Love that the UCLA drill team was involved. I'ma USC fan but I'll give UCLA their props on this one, lol!!!! I agree w/ Randall about the Janet All right w/ me zoot suit outfit w/ MJs Smooth Criminal outfit would be a cool couples outfit. Great video, thanks MJfangirl & Randall!!!!
Micheal's Black@White Spats are very rare Shoes. Back in the 30's and that looks the Time Period of this Video If you were a Member of a Polictical Party you wore a specific Band on your Arm. It's weird how Michael decided to dress like that for this.
Hi! We would’ve loved to but we didn’t have enough time on this evening. We will definitely film again in a few months but we had to fit in some shorter reactions since our time together filming this day was limited. But we have it on our list!

I miss Michael SO much, and I wish he didn't have to go through all the abuse from everyone 😔
But he'll be resting in Heaven now💚✨
Look when he talking to directors all the back cast are mesmerized watching MJ describe things.
Greatest of all time
How fabulous is it to see him and his team creating and executing one of the jewels in his king of pop crown. This is the stuff the public should be watching.
I would have just died to be in the presence of greatness.

There's an interview with Vincent Paterson who gives a good explanation of that fusion- type dance on Soldiers of Love tv.
@@niallhughes2697 yes!! I still chills!!
I always wanted that suit Michael wears in this video. Down to the spats on the shoes. 💪🏾
It’s great seeing Randall
Randall!!!! So happy to see him again! And I have seen this before, very happy to see you two react to it!
Loving the rare footage from the “Smooth Criminal “ short film. Loved seeing Randall too.
Me too! Thank you so much for watching 😀

Crazy i just wanted this the other day
Awesome the dynamic MJ dual
He was a Genius ♥️♥️
I had never seen this!!!! Amazing! Great reaction!
I wonder who has Robot Michael’s head, the head that opened it’s face. 🤩

So true! I didn’t realize this but you’re so right.
Fun fact: smooth criminal is the only short music video/film that the moonwalk has appeared in
😊🙌🏽✨️💙🤍🔥👑

I always assumed that MJ robot was CGI. I guess it makes sense though, as CGI wasn't that good when Moonwalker came out. I wonder who has it!!

No, I haven’t heard that before! But of course it makes me happy 😃
@@MJFANGIRLTV you should be proud. You're very beautiful. I'm 63. I grew up with Michael. I feel like he is family.
