Michael Jackson wants Vegas robot

Michael Jackson is in discussions about creating a 50-foot robotic replica of himself to roam the Las Vegas desert, according to reports.

The pop legend is currently understood to be living in the city, as he considers making a comeback after 2004's turbulent child sex case.

It has now been claimed that his plans ******* an elaborate show in Vegas, which would feature the giant Jacko striding around the desert, firing laser beams.

If built, the metal monster would apparently be visible to aircraft as they come in to land in the casino capital.

It is the centerpiece of an elaborate Jackson-inspired show in Vegas, according to Andre Van Pier, the robot's designer.

Luckman Van Pier, his partner at the company behind the proposal, claims blueprints have been drawn up for the show and seen by the star.

"Michael's looked at the sketches and likes them," he told the New York Daily News.

On the subject of the robot, he continued: "It would be in the desert sands. Laser beams would shoot out of it so it would be the first thing people flying in would see."

on the topic of the thread: wouldn't the sand destroy the robot?

wait wait wait.

is this even possible? are these guys he's talking to getting paid and just nodding their head?

Charmbag · 03-30-2007, 03:11 AM

Yeah...for a second I got pretty excited, but I don't think we can build 50 ft robots yet.

Boycott Graceland · 03-30-2007, 03:15 AM

i think a lifesize michael jackson robot wandering the desert would be just as terrifying as a giant one

Trotskilicious · 03-30-2007, 03:16 AM

what if it malfunctioned and terrorized salt lake city?

Boycott Graceland · 03-30-2007, 03:17 AM

it would make utah worth visiting

Trotskilicious · 03-30-2007, 03:31 AM

that's what i was thinking

Build a giant Brigham Young robot to fight the Michael Jackson robot.

This made the mental image of South Park's version of Michael Jackson (melting) appear *shudder*

instead of one 50 foot robot, it should be 50 one foot robots.

those are all from the moonwalker movie + game.
so the idea of a robot michael shooting lasers is 20 years old.

we're also talking about the guy who created the robot dance.

BlissedandGone2 · 03-30-2007, 01:04 PM

some of those video clips are endlessly hilarious. its like hes just spazzing out all over the place. i love michael jackson.

duovamp · 03-30-2007, 01:13 PM

I must admit... Michael Jackson is one fucking hell of a dancer.

BlissedandGone2 · 03-30-2007, 01:16 PM

agreed dude. he really was/is unbelievable. thats why this robot thing will redeem his last 20 years.

yo soy el mejor · 03-30-2007, 01:18 PM

the repetition of that song made me LOL

duovamp · 03-30-2007, 01:24 PM

DA DAAAAAAAA DA NANANA DA DAAAAAAAA DA NANANA DA DAAAAAAAA DA NANANA DA DAAAAAAAA DA NANANA DA DAAAAAAAA DA NANANA

myosis · 03-30-2007, 01:26 PM

i know... it's a weird breakdown during the song "Dancing Machine" (very 70's soul funk)... that's where he would do his robot routine. if you want to see him moonwalk backward it's always toward the end of billie jean.

Oh man how does he do it. I don't even get close :S

I doubt the 50 foot robot monster will be as cool as it sounds on paper.
