Michael Jackson's estate is lashing out at the people behind a new MJ documentary set to debut in जापान tomorrow -- claiming प्रशंसकों are being duped into believing the flick was authorized द्वारा Team MJ.
The estate has released a scathing statement claiming that मराल, फ्लेमिंगो Features is promoting the movie in a way that is misleading MJ's प्रशंसकों into believing the film -- shot द्वारा former MJ confidante Marc Schaffel -- was properly authorized.
The estate also makes it clear it doesn't endorse the flick and none of the profits will benefit MJ's children. They also note that the movie is not allowed to contain any of Michael's music.
Schaffel doesn't appear to be bothered -- the above चित्र was taken moments पूर्व at the movie premiere in Tokyo ... where Schaffel took the stage and told प्रशंसकों Katherine Jackson sent along her best wishes.
Tuesday, we shot video of Schaffel and Debbie Rowe boarding a plane to Tokyo.

"Ben"
Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And आप my friend will see
You've got a friend in me
(You've got a friend in me)
Ben, you're always running here and there
(Here and there)
आप feel you're not wanted anywhere
(Anywhere)
If आप ever look behind
And don't like what आप find
There's something आप should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
Ben, most people would turn आप away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see आप as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(A friend)
Like Ben
