Susanna Girl Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Does this mean they'll be doing a sort of "sequel" to the 2006 movie? Or are they talking of a totally different approach? I desperately hope they don't do another film like the '06 movie as it was such a disappointment to me. Unless DJ and PMT are onboard, I wish they would just leave it alone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I desperately hope they don't do another film like the '06 movie as it was such a disappointment to me. Unless DJ and PMT are onboard, I wish they would just leave it alone. A very good question...I (for the life of me) can't understand why they would even consider doing another movie, unless they are taking a different approach altogether. To do a sequel to the 2006 movie really doesn't make much sense. I wonder if Don has something to do with this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Vercetti Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) Holy crap. This is great if it is true. Michael Mann could direct again and he could make up for his faux pas with the '06 movie by making this movie more like the series.

Vincent Hanna Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 They should just do a 80s nostalgia film rather have another one set in the present. It would be way more fun. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James Posted December 16, 2014 Administrators Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 I honestly think that it'll be better this time around. Because music is more 80s than it used to be in 2006. There won't be any out of place music like Linkin Park.However it's just a rumour. I'd still prefer if DJ rebooted it as a TV series like he said in that interview. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Calderon Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) If Sony was involved, we would be knowing all about that already lol Well...DJ was speaking about a new MV lately...does it rings a bell with that reboot report? Yeah, yeah...but for me...MV is not Miami Vice only with DJ....the minimum core is DJ and PMT... I have my doubts if Universal would put more money in a sequel of a crappy movie. A reboot is a better hope. Edited December 16, 2014 by Mr. Calderon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless DJ and PMT are onboard, I wish they would just leave it alone. Well said. I agree! Even if they got all the original stars back it would be totally unbelievable as the final episode kind of tied the story up in a neat bow. Tubbs went back to NY and Sonny went to the keys with his "Stolen car" How would you put all that back together again after all these years? There are hundreds of things to say about a remake that wouldn't work unless it was made for modern times like today. MV was a product of it's time and that is why the 2006 movie did not do so well.2015 would need a good story line which could be believable (the 2006 story was not!) and it would need good star power and chemistry (which the 2006 movie did not!)Good luck to them whoewver is trying to produce this.....................................

Viceman Cometh Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 I'm all for this. And not just because it'll make Rick Bravo angry. Of course, breakfast can make Rick Bravo angry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavinsky Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Yeah when you come right down to it, the 2006 movie just felt like a remake of an old episode. Which sounds like it was done purely as a Favor To Jamie Fox after Collateral. tch you got my bag homie lol the way I'd modernize the story however is I would set Crockett up as an undercover DEA agent that gets pulled into dealing with Vice down there, with the former head of a CIA cell in the golden triangle pulling the strings so he can have him on permanent retainer to help bust some of the biggest drug lords, as his men are known and would be seen through in a heart beat with the corruption within vice. although I guess that would be more James Bond Licence to Kill than Vice then? or even burn notice, lol can you imagine Bruce Cambell as Sonny Crockett lol or Switeck really.

Mr. Calderon Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 A Vice episode with less than one hour was much better than a movie with two hours and room enough to deliver better results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicefan7777 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Lets face it, the core audience for a reboot would want the original cast members, the pastel colors, and the 80s music. It would not work any other way. Doing a reboot also needs Micheal and Anthony behind the camera. I hope if this happens Universal listens to the fans.
