MJ Neverland Ranch arcade video

[wickedbass]

Could have been, I always heard his arcade was 2 stories and big enough that people got lost in it. This may have been another arcade or a part of the bottom floor of the big one.

in the info on the side it says it was 2 stories

http://mjjr.net/ - This footage offers an ultra rare glimpse into the private arcade at Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch. The video was filmed on December 17, 2004 and marks the very last time that the mass public was ever granted permission into the property. The event was an annual Christmas party where hundreds of inner-city and underprivileged children and adults spent the day exploring the scenic landmark, riding on attractions, snacking on food and drinks, watching movies, and playing in the luxurious two-story arcade. All of this was provided free-of-charge by Michael Jackson, who greeted the guests briefly before traveling elsewhere.

Michael was born in the 50's! He was famous by the late 60's, and never hung out in arcades. So not only were there no games from when he grew up, he wouldn't have ever known what they were anyways. That was the whole thing with him anyways, wasn't it? Didn't have much of a childhood so created one for himself in his 30's. Plus, you've got to remember he built that arcade in the early 90's, so the games would have been what came out around then. I *THINK* I can make out a R360 in the background, can anybody confirm? that must have been a trip.

Check out this video and you will see some older arcade games:

The second vid is wrong on so many levels. And yes, my favorite line from it was the no grown man needs this many fricken video games comment. +1 on the dude being dead wrong. But the thing that kept running through my head was the following question. If you thought MJ was such a freak, why would you be wondering around in his stuff with a video camara filming it and talking smack. What morbid curiosity would compel someone to go visit a warehoused auction and videotape it just so you can post it to the web and use it to incriminate a person's character. By this guys definition, everyone on this group is a sick freak. And for lack of better words, that just pisses me off to end. And if you ask me, this guys pretty sick himself for even making that video.

It's really not very hard to figure out for me. The guy spends the majority of his childhood working and being unable to play around as a kid, when he gets older and can do what he wants he plays around like a kid. Really not a very deep read, lol. Was a little weird, did some cringe-worthy interviews, but I don't believe he was the monster people try to portray him as. If you actually look at the 'evidence', you see a guy who spent his life being pretty kind to people, entertaining the hell out of us, giving away a shitload of money, and being aquitted of all charges. In the last case, the woman said he kidnapped her family and held her hostage in his mansion. I mean come on. He had millions of kids come to his house, two claimed he did something. Child molestors molest anything they can get their hands on. His ex-wife Lisa Marie Pressley can't stand him but says that he's not a pervert. If your ex-wife goes to bat for you, i'd say that's a pretty good character witness.

[bradd]

Yup, and if you check out her other videos, go past the Michael Jackson auction footage and you'll find her doing a blues act on the Gong Show from the 80s. Classy stuff!

Ignore the commentary.

"No grown man needs this many fricken video games" - I disagree...

I love the comment when looking at Darth Vader unmasked.... "Is that a harmonica??" OY! dumbass.

He had a few alright titles in there. News to me, I thought everything he had was crap when I browsed the auction site that was up a few months ago. I'm more creeped out by all the superhero statues.
