| 1 | * TheDanza: From the "Smooth Criminal" segment, Michael's character has his name and the oldest of the three kids is named Sean and is played by Sean Lennon, son of Music/JohnLennon. |
| 2 | * DirectToVideo: Bizarrely, in its ''home country'' - [[Creator/{{Lorimar}} Lorimar Motion Pictures]] had planned to give it a North American theatrical release, but Michael's manager (and along with MJ the film's executive producer) Frank [=DiLeo=] wanted such a high percentage of the box office returns that it was cancelled. |
| 3 | * EditedForSyndication: Releases on DVD and [=BluRay=] cut down on how much Mr. Big hits Katie when he's holding her hostage and completely edits out his attempt to drug her, going from another shot of him hurting Katie directly to Michael getting knocked down when he tries to save her. |
| 4 | * ExecutiveMeddling: Soundtrack labels have tried to release [[Film/{{Silverado}} Bruce]] [[Series/TheOrville Broughton]]'s energetic scoring for the "Speed Demon" and "Smooth Criminal" segments, but as one label head put it, "Michael Jackson's people said no. Even after we offered to completely avoid Michael Jackson's image." So until they relent[[note]]which won't be soon if ever[[/note]] fans have to console themselves with the short suite from "Smooth Criminal" recorded by the Cincinnati Pops for the 1990 album ''[[https://www.discogs.com/Erich-Kunzel-Cincinnati-Pops-Orchestra-Fantastic-Journey/release/2879924 Fantastic Journey]]''. |
| 5 | * KeepCirculatingTheTapes: While there have been physical re-releases starting from 2010 onward, along with being added to some steaming services, they have been censored so hold on to your [=VHS=] and [=LaserDisc=] copies for the original cut. |
| 6 | * UncreditedRole: None of the voice actors in the "Speed Demon" segment are credited. |
