Thriller MJ vs. Smooth Criminal MJ
 

Alright kids. Vote for the ultimate Michael Jackson costume -- its Thriller's trademark red jacked, vs. Smooth Criminal's classic white suit and fedora.

You know where I stand.

If we're talking pure aesthetic choice, I'm going to go with Smooth Criminal, for many reasons. The fedora became as iconic to MJ as it is to Indy.

If we're talking which outfit is the most iconic, the one that caught the eye of the world, it was definitely the Thriller jacket.

Kudos on this thread, TMB. 8)

As iconic as the Thriller outfit is, I always liked the Smooth Criminal better.

I mean, it just screams out 'P-I-M-P!' :lol:

Going with thriller, just out of Icon status.

I gotta' go with Smooth Criminal. As much as I love Thriller, that pimp suit is just iconic to me. That video and that costume represents the peak of the 80s to me.

I've actually got a replica hat in my closet. I haven't worn it in forever. I was actually waiting until I shaved my head again, so it looks like I had better bring out the razor. If I had the cash, I'd get the suit to go with it.

I stare at your Moonwalker sigs at least 2-5 minutes daily, TMB. Just letting you know. :P

Thriller may have been the first video I ever saw him in, but whenever I think of MJ, he's in the Smooth Criminal suit.

I went for Thriller's outfit. Might be cause thats the first time I ever seen MJ. Dont get me wrong, the white suit is massive but I was just never familiar with it apart from Moonwalker (which I think Ive already said) and had forgotten about the smooth criminal video until I seen it the other night on telly.


Thanks ThirdMarioBro for setting this up. I didnt know how to do the polls yet.

I do the exact same thing. :lol:

Cool beans. I'm not alone. :lol:

Smooth Criminal, FINALLY in Widescreen. Enjoy.

Now that I think about it, MJ had a select few of 'iconic' costumes. It's just that these 2 are the most well known and most universal.

I've been washing and re-wearing my black, white striped 'Billie Jean' pants since Friday. That was an amazing getup too.

Hell, yeah. Debut of the moonwalk, sir.

I always liked the 'Remember the Time' outfit, too.

I'd walk around like that all day if I could. If only my Moonwalk didn't suck.

When Michael was made into a video game character, which did he wear?

I rest my case...:P

Heh, mine was decent, but I definitely needed slippery floors to pull it off with the least amount of effort.

BTW, is that video from his Budapest concert in '92?

Probably. Its been a while.

They never made a video game called "Thriller." So that's kind of a silly argument.

I think it is. I remember that completely. I think it came on HBO that time, and we taped it on VCR.

One of the best concerts he ever did. 8)

At the end, he performed 'Man in the Mirror' and took off on a friggin' jetpack.

EDIT:

They could have, though. It'd be like vanguard version of Resident Evil... but with monkeys. :lol:
