Credit: AP Online

LOS ANGELES --

The Michael Jackson music documentary is selling out theaters around the world.

According to Sony Pictures, hundreds of show times have sold out since tickets went on sale Sunday for "Michael Jackson: This Is It."

The film was built around rehearsal footage for the late singer's planned London concerts. It opens Oct. 28 for a two-week limited run.

Advance shows in some markets the night before also are selling out. All 3,000 tickets for screenings at a Los Angeles cinema were snapped up in two hours, with some fans lining up for nearly three days.

Sony says that 30,000 tickets were sold in the first 24 hours in London, while $1 million worth of tickets were sold in Japan within the same time period.

    Oh I am DYING to see this film of Michael Jackson! I can't wait to see it. He was the greatest thing to ever happen to the music industry. I miss him terribly and always will miss him. He was a genius, an extraordinary human being. Those people who hate him and who think that he was a child molester need to stop wasting their time getting on web sites that talk about Michael Jackson. If you hate him so much, why are you wasting your time reading about him? Go somewhere else to spread your hatred. Michael Jackson was innocent of all charges and a jury of his peers said that he was innocent, so stop accusing him of things that he is not guilty of.

    I am looking forward to seeing This Is It.... one last look at Michael Jackson while he was still alive.... gosh i miss him so much! And it breaks my heart when someone says he was a child molester. Because he was the furthest thing from it... he was so kind and giving... he gave over $300 million to charity.

    Yes of course I'll see it! And I am not alone on this! cj sounds like somebody that needs to quit reading trash and hearing trash and believing it. Read the facts, all the transcripts are online. Why keep on about this, he is innocent! Get that hate out of your heart before it's too late. MJ Forever!

    I doubt he was ever a child molestor or he would have been convicted. LA was dying to do so. You sound like one of the parents allowing your child to spend the night in hopes he would molest them and you could get paid.
