Administrators James Posted October 12, 2019 Administrators Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 13 hours ago, RedDragon86 said: If Crockett was the new lieutenant where would that leave Tubbs? and they others. As far as I am aware I think this division doesn't have senior captains like the LAPD/NYPD, just detectives between the ages of 25-50. Tubbs could be a PI in New York who gets brought back to Miami because of the case being personal to both he and Crockett? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer84 Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) It'll be a big challenge for them to get it right, as you can't recreate the magic and atmosphere, that the original had. But I think the key is to focus on good and interesting storytelling. And of course not to be a parody of itself, but somehow blend in with modern times while keeping the familiar formular. It's a balance. I imagined it/thought it could start off all black with a text, that says 35 years later... Maybe some flashback of significant scenes before that to show the newer audience what made the show special and create nostalgia to the fans. I liked the idea with a new Vice team working on a case, trying to bring down a drug lord, where it turns out that Tubbs' son is part of that family and the new head of the organization maybe, as was suggested, but he'll be a good person and Tubbs will try and save him out of it, when he finds out, he has a son. And naturally Crockett will be involved to help his partner. I've mentioned this before, but Crockett and his son could drive by a familiar Vice location, where he will reminisce and get flashback to a scene, that he and Tubbs experienced. But that's maybe too much nostalgia and I'll doubt it would happen. I like it though. Edited October 12, 2019 by summer84 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Calderon Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 Yesterday, i found out mv, the garbage movie, on amazon prime. Like a masochist i tried again to watch that crap. Unhopefully, alonzo was hit by a truck in the begining of this disease. I would be happy if the truck could hit farrel and fox. I just remember of ciaran hinds talking about fujima. After this i slept. Lol then you find out there are smart asses in the industry thinking that to be crockett and tubbs those two idiots need to make angry faces to be beliavable. Mann did a movie for swat teams, not for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 I always saw Sonny as living reclusively in the Florida Keys or Bahamas on a boat after MV ended of course this is just based on how he was in Season 5 burnt out , reclusive at times, unhappy and disheartened with the corruption. Of course now he would be nearly 70. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to think of it, why did he even have to steal the Tessterosa? He could have bought it outright! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who retired and actually lives on a sailboat that could pass for the St. Vitus. He sails all over the Caribbean/Florida/Key West area and enjoys life to the fullest. Interestingly, he was involved in law enforcement back in the day, so I can't help but imagine how this could have been Sonny Crockett's 'fate'. Fun to speculate what happened to Crockett and Tubbs. Keeps the characters alive in your mind! Edited October 12, 2019 by mjcmmv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would kind of be the main plot with some other side storylines like Crockett helping out Billy with his work related dilemmas. And my personal favorite (what I'm mostly hoping for) we'll see Sonny and Gina dating again maybe they'll end up together.

jpaul1 Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) Crockett has retired, and couldn't go on with all the things he did while he was working for mobsters. so he slowly became a druglord in Thailand. Tubbs has become gay, and runs a gays, and transgenders club. because of a difficult case, the Miami police chief asks Tubbs, to get linked again with Crockett, to get important infos. Tubbs accept to see again his old bro. after 3, or 4 episodes Tubbs discovers that Crockett is actually working as a mole for the US next is up to you to invent Edited October 12, 2019 by jpaul1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
