I'm not sure what's more mind-blowing. The fact that the studio managed to pull off one of the most iconic yet difficult dance routines of MJ's career with multiple models of different sizes, and successfully mirror the music video it came from, or the fact that Illumination Studios, of all businesses, with its track record for mediocre films, was the one who pulled this off! People would generally think Sony, Disney, or even DreamWorks would pull this off, but Illumination?!?
Probably the fact that they replicated the same dance with so many characters models. Really, anyone’s capable of referencing the scene. But when they actually do it, it's never the whole routine. So being able to do the entire thing while also being accurate to the original is respectable, regardless of who makes it. Still, major props to Illumination, of all studios, for making it happen.
You call Illumination films mediocre (which isn't wrong), but they've never made an ugly movie (Except maybe "Hop"). You can call some of the character designs weird and/or bland and call their humor crude. But, their movies have always been appealing to the eyes. From the colors, to the textures, to the movements, their animation has always been a strength. I think this short is their way to just flex some of their animators' talent (AND make a Halloween thing they can license out every year or something).
@zanpakutoman4225 I know. I don't disagree there! My comment was about complimenting the animation, cause I don't think anybody could have expected Illumination to make an animated short heavily based on Michael Jackson's original music video, let alone perfectly replicate the dance routine. And it's definitely a treat to watch, and is a wonderful way to introduce the present kids to one of the biggest music icons in history. Literally, the only gripe I have with the short is that it not only has the same narrative pacing problem as MJ's OG music video, but it unfortunately makes the pacing problem of the original more prominent.
well you'd expect animation studios to do things like this but not do the exact moves and have a lot of differences, this one they cooked and almost had no differences at all
Let me just say, they nailed this with the animation! It looks so good, the vocals too! Good thing that Micheal’s songs still get the love and appreciation they deserve ❤
Like every October, it is the perfect way to pay tribute to the greatest hit by the King of Pop and a great way to celebrate Halloween by playing Thriller. MJ would be very pleased.
Done watching the Short with my Mom just i gotta This "Sing Thriller" Is one of my Favorite than the Shrek Thriller tbh. I was Laughing and Shocked at the Same time, and I gotta say this Halloween short is to Pay Tribute the King of Pop Michael Jackson!
I’m with you guys, even though I don’t have Netflix anymore, (which is the only way to watch this) just the fact that an animation subsidiary of Universal with only 15 films under its belt, was able pull of such a sick dance sequence replicating the famous music video.
HOLY THIS IS GOOD, consider they somehow added an extra that wasn't in the music video and it adds voices to it almost made me say "bro MJ's voice is too high" at the part where they actually sing, just weow
This isn't the first time an animated movie did a Thriller parody....meet the original parody- ruclips.net/video/fqEhFaBW4I8/видео.html This from Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. Its a DVD easter egg. Though the Sing version would have been even better if one of the characters had on the same outfit as Michael did in the original Thriller
Just saw this. Absolutely love it. I adore anything from this franchise. Literally the only thing they did wrong in this, was (spoiler)... the last "twist" where Crawley turns around to show her hypnotized/zombified eyes. One of them is a fake eye! It should have been the usual glossy sheen! It would have been a beautiful attention to detail!
The amazing thing with the sing version and the sing franchise as a whole is that we get to hear these beloved celebrity’s voices. And we get to hear them sing these incredible songs! Scarlet johanson did great😂 never thought i would hear her sing thriller❤
15 years after his death, he still proves that he is still the best king of pop and I love that Illumination has recreated [my favorite song Thriller is perfect] especially in the month of Halloween. I look forward to seeing his biopic next year ❤️🥹
I mean, when I was a chyyyld in 1982(or 83), i wasn't old enough to stay up and watch Thriller when it was first shown on TV. And now kids of any age can watch a GCI animation of the dance routine on social media. How times have changed...
Thriller is definitely my favorite Michael Jackson song, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well they animated this, and did well with staying true to the original chorography.
October is the perfect time to pay tribute to the iconic hit by the King of Pop. This is the best cover of one of Michael Jackson’s most legendary songs ever!
Mai înspăimântătoare este versiunea cu Michael Jackson, ca zombi , decât ce-a din Sing3. O scurgere de lichid colorat , și apoi transformarea în niște zombi dansatori , cu ochi multicolori. Patetic , nici n-o să am coșmaruri. Michael Jackson era cu adevărat un rege al fricii. Sing3 nici nu mă face țip , precum Jokerul care primește hârtiile de plată de la fisc . Iar cu fiscul chiar nu te joci.
If Michael Jackson was still here with us I would meet and be super extremely happy but that didn’t happen after I find out he pass, but this video is very awesome
WOW Now That’s An Awesome Video Of The “Michael Jackson And Sing Thriller Comparison” Good Job & I Love It Cause “Michael Jackson” Would Be Both “Proud & Impressed” Indefinitely :-) Happy Halloween :-)🎃🐺👻🕸️💀🐈⬛👹🧛🏻♂️🧟♂️🧙🏻♀️🌕⚰️🦇🕷️🧡🖤🤍🍭

@@danielc.0417 Agreed there!
The sing movies are a stand out to me-

Why does this make me happy. Like introducing younger generation to MJ is always a good thing.
THIS is the type of things we should be introducing the younger generations to. 😊
@@Jadelyn18 and lgbtq. 😊
@@Jadelyn18totally my 3 yrd old loved both dances now he wants to sing the song
Poor choice of words
@@gratuity7592fr 💀
It is outrageous that the way they animated the choreography for this song is so accurate, it is nearly identical to the real thing.
Outrageous isn't a good word btw 😭
If Michael Jackson was still here, he would be proud.
For Both DreamWorks and Illumination?
He would be the most famous person in the world after Jesus Christ
Something tells me he's still alive tho
May he rest in peace
My mom think he more would be mad bc of what ppl have said he have did
RIP Michael Jackson 1958 to 2009. 🙏
Fr :(
He was a great man will miss him😢
How did he die?
@@Espadaacecombat He died on June 25 2009 in Los Angeles, CA. 😥 🙏

Es verdad 😢
Be so proud of your parents. BECAUSE ILLUMINATION COOKED SO HARD !✨✨

It’s not that deep on god 🙏😭
well you'd expect animation studios to do things like this but not do the exact moves and have a lot of differences, this one they cooked and almost had no differences at all

Best cover of one of Michael Jackson’s most iconic songs, ever!
For sure
We miss you Jackson
I know right 🕺🕺🕺🕺
We all do, he's a legend
I think they made this movie just so they could just have this one part
Let me just say, they nailed this with the animation! It looks so good, the vocals too! Good thing that Micheal’s songs still get the love and appreciation they deserve ❤

Tienes razón
KING OF POP FOREVER!!
MJ:✅✅✅
Harry styles:☠️☠️☠️❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌HELL NAH
Reminds me of Shrek Thriller when everyone is zombified except for Shrek.
That's what I'm sayin
I really like how they did good quality animation the whole way through. The voices and dancing are great.
Johnny's whoo hoo was just incredible
Indefinitely :-)
Michael jackson may be dead but his memory lives on
We miss you MJ! 😢😢
MJ tá vivo meu fio
It reference the pop singer
Yes
We sure do
I KNEW they were gonna play that song as soon as I saw the title of the movie!
It’s because the title is sing thriller isn’t it :/
Respect for Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson you’re awesome man
0:54 got me the chills by THRILLER
Same
Me too
This is by far the most amazing comparison of "Thriller" I've ever seen! Michael Jackson would be proud! 🥰💞
Done watching the Short with my Mom just i gotta This "Sing Thriller" Is one of my Favorite than the Shrek Thriller tbh.
I was Laughing and Shocked at the Same time, and I gotta say this Halloween short is to Pay Tribute the King of Pop Michael Jackson!
Respect illumination for to recreate the entire dance 🎉🙏

It’s awesome how sing made references from the music video r.i.p Michael
HOLY THIS IS GOOD, consider they somehow added an extra that wasn't in the music video and it adds voices to it almost made me say "bro MJ's voice is too high" at the part where they actually sing, just weow
Since I met Michael Jackson at a concert. Michael Jackson was such a loved and kind.
Rip Micheal Jackson:(
This isn't the first time an animated movie did a Thriller parody....meet the original parody- ruclips.net/video/fqEhFaBW4I8/видео.html

I just watched thriller today, I didn’t know it was off Micheal Jackson’s.
King of Pop
They even got all the camera angles right! I love this so much.
We love you MJ I'm great dance I'm just like you
yes kids ...watch and learn who was the king of all kings.
Sing Thriller is such an awesome short, and such a great homage to the Thriller song and short film!!!
Wow I really enjoyed this MJ is such an icon RIP to the legend himself
0:44 Now all of y’all look like Nicki Booty AND Dora and her friends! BADDIE FRIENDZ!
Clay doesn't move???
The amazing thing with the sing version and the sing franchise as a whole is that we get to hear these beloved celebrity’s voices. And we get to hear them sing these incredible songs! Scarlet johanson did great😂 never thought i would hear her sing thriller❤
1:20 Whooo hoooo
Johnny was channeling Michael's spirit in that
I think this might be the best reference
All that's missing in this mashup is Shrek.
Hearing Johnny hit that "woohoo!" for some reason, it felt right!
My literal excitement when I saw them do the actual dance was awesome
I forgot how long the dance goes for😭
Haven't seen this yet is it worth my 30 minutes?
Damn, Rip michael jackson 😭❤️
I love his songs
Shrek did better scene
0:54 this caught me by surprise but i like michael jackson so much 😢😢❤
