Watching the Michael Movie at the Movie Theaters

There’s something different about watching a legend like Michael Jackson on a movie theater screen. It’s not just a film—it’s an experience.


From the moment the lights dimmed, there was this unspoken energy in the room. You could feel the anticipation. People weren’t just there to watch a movie—they were there to relive memories, to feel something. And that’s exactly what happened.


Seeing his story unfold on such a big scale made everything hit deeper. The music sounded louder. The performances felt more alive. It reminded me why Michael wasn’t just an artist—he was a movement.


What stood out the most was how the theater reacted. Some people were smiling, some were emotional, and you could even hear quiet singing during certain moments. It felt like we were all connected through his legacy.


Walking out of the theater, I didn’t just feel entertained—I felt inspired. It made me think about impact, about creativity, and about what it really means to leave a mark on the world.

When watching the Michael biopic

with my brother 

It definitely brought back memories 

of when we used to play the Michael Jackson 

Experience game on the Wii console.

And the funny thing about that memory 

is that growing up I wanted to be like Michael. 

Everyone wanted to, and I remember that the Michael Jackson game had the glove in the case, and I would never forget that I was always the one who got it on. Every time we played the game, every time we played it, I wanted the glove, and I had given no one a chance to wear the glove lol. And I also had a Michael Jackson poster that I hung up on my wall in my bedroom. It was getting old to the point it had ripped, and I was having to get tape to tape it back together every time it tore. When my brother and I watched the Michael movie, I yelled out SHAMONE! And my brother started laughing uncontrollably, and at first, I thought we were going to watch the new Mario brothers movie, but he pulled a smooth one on me and surprised me, but it made me really happy that day, and I really enjoyed myself that Saturday and that we’ve already talked about going to see part two together when it comes out, and hopefully, I won’t cry this time 🥹

Welcome to Brown Side Of Autism

We’re two brothers— Daniel and David —telling our truth from the inside out. We didn’t always have the words for what we were feeling. Growing up autistic and Black wasn’t something people explained to us. It was something we lived. Something we navigated. Something we survived. This blog isn’t here to “raise awareness” in the way most people expect. We’re not here to check boxes or play into stereotypes. This is about real stories —the kind you don’t see on TV or read in pamphlets. The kind that sits in your chest long after the moment is over. Brown Side of Autism is our space to talk about: The moments we were misunderstood The times we were loved so deeply, it saved us The days we felt broken—and the days we didn’t What it means to exist at the intersection of race, disability, and resilience You’ll hear both of our voices on this blog. Sometimes together. Sometimes individually. But always rooted in truth. This blog is for: The kid who doesn’t have words yet but feels everythi...

Bowling Party for Luther

  On Saturday, Dec 6th, Dallas and I went to a bowling party for my cousin Luther at this place called Bowling & Amusement Round1. My cousin Shamyra picked us up. When we first walked in, it felt like a full arcade—bright lights, a bunch of games to play, and even pool tables. We went up the escalator, and Shamyra asked Luther if he was excited. He jumped up and down yelling “yes!” so you already knew he was ready. After we got our bowling shoes, it was time to start. The rest of my family joined in too, and it was nice because I haven’t been bowling in a while. We played one round and I ended with 40 points. We ate pizza afterward—super fresh, and I only managed to eat three slices but they were  too  good. The best part was seeing Luther smile. Luther has autism, so seeing him enjoy himself meant a lot. After bowling, we all played some arcade games together. At one point Luther had a meltdown, and instead of pulling away, he walked straight to me and gave me a hug....
