Maybe I need to get a real job lol but I have something that’s bothered me about this photo. It’s SO insignificant, really. But Michael’s skin was usually pretty dang smooth, so I’m not getting what’s with all of the tiny scars and other marks on his face in this biopic photo. Jaafar also has very smooth skin, so they had to have added it. I know FX makeup fairly well and it looks like they added a little wax for that scar on the far right by his ear as well has giving some texture on his cheeks. The real thing never looked like that to me in photos back then. Michael also never did his eyebrows like that. Look at photos from that era. They were never a half circle like in this photo. They were always slightly pointy and arched, even if they were more rounded and thinner in the 80’s. This is so ridiculously nit-picky, I know. But I feel like they should know this. Rounded is how many people did brows in the 80’s, but that doesn’t make it accurate for him specifically. His had a slight triangle shape, even before his brows became a more prominent part of his look. Also…based on the preview from the other day…isn’t his skin too dark for this era (I’m assuming Bad?). This looks more like Victory/Pepsi tone but with Bad era hair. Come on now…unless they made an edit to show him walking down the hall in the Bad outfit and another shot right after of a different era. Sigh. I’m looking forward to it no matter what. Overall, he does look an awful lot like him! 

This small thing bothers me…
