Can somebody explain what it is about? they are talking about The Making Of Cast Away and Men in Black which is 20 mins long releasing in DVDs and showing in TV? Then what the hell is Michael Jackson's Last Film? And what are those oother movies about?

Michael didn't play in those

^They mean that the film Michael made is a 'spoof' of those films, a spoof is where people make fun of something.

And also, that I agree it sounds like footage of Michael from the ones he had cameos in, not an actual film. It's a bit confusing, are they trying to make a film from outtakes to make money, or is it a real film Michael was working on?

the only film Iheard Michael wanting to do is about Edgar Poe. So for me it just looks like they are using those 20 mins footage to advertise and sells their new project. I mean the Michael footage is one of many they are going to release, right? But somehow all the article is all about Michael as if the whole DVD will be Michael alone.

But I dont think Michael ever made a film about Edgar Poe although it was talked about. I think its the Miss Castaway film with an interivew as an extra. I have that DVD and there is an intervew with MJ and the director of the film at the end.

No, he didn't make that one. There were some probs. But Michael really wanted to make that one. I've read Michael wanted to do acting in some movies and Spielberg said as long as he finds a script, it's fine, he will be in the movie. Michael found the script, Spielberg liked it but instead of Michael, he took another actor although he promised the role to Michael. I am not sure but I think it was the movie about Peter Pan called Hook. Yep, I was right, it's even mentioned in IMDB. I think I've read it in his interview released by Shumey. Michael was very disappointed.
