Quantcast



You know what's awesome? Putting out a full widescreen, HD video one week and then having to revert back to a crappy format because you're capturing from an emulator. I had intended a PS3 game this week, but since that would involve Sony, things got complicated and I had to postpone it. Luckily, this meant I could bump up a video I had planned for a while and I believe it turned out quite well, if you can excuse the non-wide dimensions.

As always, hit the link and watch the nonsense. This episode, I pay tribute to a great man who touched the hearts and minds of fans around the world. Michael Jackson (who is dead) was a legend, and that is why I'm proud to honor him with my own special and, above all, timely review of Moonwalker. Enjoy, and revel in the tender memories.

He sang Ghetto Gospel and Changes, and will never be forgot. If only he survived to see the black president he always wanted.

Lol. I knew that Michael Jackson was the person that wrote "California Love". My friends and I always argue about it, they always said it was 2pac, but I KNEW it was Jacko.

Thank you Jim Sterling for finally giving me the winning hand in this life long debate!!!!!!!

Even sadder than that biography about him, Walk the Line.

Thank you for your moving tribute to Farrah Fawcett, Jim.

I demand said album of Jimmles singing on cassette. Because it's all my car has and thus the only way I am able to listen to modern musical stylings.

Jim is biased against Michael Jackson and a bad journalist for it. He's obviously a Prince fanboy and has no place writing for this Michael Jackson blog.

That was painful to watch. Please, change everything about your videos, or never make another one again. I fail to see how this can be considered funny in any form at all.

Did anyone else notice that he made reference to a couple other celebrities in this one? I think Oxy Clean was billy mays, and the movies he listed at the beginning were Patrick Swayze, both of whom died recently. If you noticed any others please post.

Jim, please stop making these. Right now I am tied up in Aaron Linde's basement and he is forcing me to watch your videos. Normally I would just ignore your videos and not whine about them like a retard, but alas, I have my eyes pried open like in A Clockwork Orange. Please stop.

Kidding, of course. This was great. Never stop! Do it for Dodo Fayed!
