Well, what do you know? TMZ got it right. Epic and Legacy have announced Michael Jackson's Vision, a three-DVD set of Jackson's videography. Some 42 videos are included, several of them unreleased on any format. It's also the closest MJ fans in the U.S. have gotten to getting the entirety of Moonwalker released, as most of the vignettes from that film are included.
Will you want to get rid of your old compilations (Video Greatest Hits HIStory, HIStory on Film Volume II, Dangerous: The Short Films)? No, because each has a piece of something that Vision lacks. The 1993 Dangerous Tour intro ("Brace Yourself"), the Motown 25 performance of "Billie Jean," the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards performance, the "I'll Be There" Pepsi ad - those are just four bits found on those other sets that aren't in this new box. But even if you have those discs, there's some stuff here you likely don't have. So hit the jump and see what awaits you.
