COOPER&BURNETT Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Oh' date=' are you selling stuff your self or posting a link to stuff for sale? [/quote']I originally meant creating a thread where I post pictures of MIAMI VICE vintage and non vintage items and clothes that I would sell on this site. Again, I'm sure it would be of interest, and popular because of the range of items from Vice and 80's clothes and stuff, but I have never really brought it up seriously, as I don't think that would be approved, so I have never asked.Kind of a GENERAL STORE for MIAMI VICE items.

COOPER&BURNETT Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Well I've already PMed them. Let's see what the response is and we'll go from there.They will most likely say this site is for the enjoyment of fans, not to make a profit.Like I said, I wasn't really asking, just toying with ideas to keep this site fresh and original.I've got lots of stuff to post still, made a new contact with someone who worked on the show, and have all sorts of ideas for great MIAMI VICE threads.It takes me time to think up these things, and do this, but I do it for the members. Cool members like you. .....I've only yet begun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frey Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 "Magnum' date=' p.i." is one show that could do an awesome reunion movie!! Tom still looks awesome for his age--and as far as I know the rest of the cast (including John Hillerman--Higgins) is still alive too. If they had the "right" script...it would be awesome to find out what Magnum was up to after 22 years. [/quote'] One of the longest-running active threads they have at the Magnum site is about a potential Magnum movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViceFanMan Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 One of the longest-running active threads they have at the Magnum site is about a potential Magnum movie.Yeah, as they have with "Hawaii Five-0" and a few other shows, they've been trying to make a screen version of "Magnum" for about 4 or 5 years now.Personally, I'm not interested in a movie version--unless it's one with the original show cast! In my opinion, the "MV" movie, the "Dukes of Hazzard" movie, and possibly the new "A-Team" movie (haven't actually seen this one yet)--all sucked and were crap compared to the original shows!So, I would rather have a reunion TV-movie of the original show cast, than a movie version of younger (but much less talented) actors. ;)Also, I read that Magnum's original hawaiian shirt (with the birds) was in the Smithsonian Museum--which sort of "tops" the American History one. But, maybe it originally was in the Smithsonian and later was moved to the American History museum. Either way--I think it's awesome that part of "Magnum, p.i." can be honored that way! Now all we need is to have the "MV" pastel wardrobe in its own display! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frey Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I just saw this on the Magnum-Mania website and had to share:http://www.becomingmagnum.tvI'm surprised they didn't mention the Miami Vice movie in that trailer. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators timm525 Posted July 2, 2010 Author Administrators Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I saw that earlier today. :)Also Selleck has stated that he will NOT be involved with a movie or do a cameo appearance. He more or less stated that these remakes are horrible to the original shows and they are seldom successful. He doesn't want to star in it as that would be an endorsement to the original fans that he agrees with it. He does not.I'll try and find his quote on this.

He doesn't want to star in it as that would be an endorsement to the original fans that he agrees with it. He does not.I'll try and find his quote on this.Most of the original show cast ends up protesting and being against the movie remakes of their shows...I usually agree with them! Sorry if I offend anyone here, but I hated the "MV" movie!! From what I heard/read none of the original cast would have anything to do with it. I even read that Edward James Olmos was asked to reprise his role of Castillo in the movie...but he refused.A lot of the "Dukes of Hazzard" cast protested the movie version, as it was basically a rude-crude "raunchy" version compared the to original show. As for the new "A-Team" movie...I read and heard that Mr. T. stated he thought it was dumb and completely lacked what the original show had.I just think that you can't really redo something that has already been done...and get the same effect! Tom Selleck is correct...these stupid movie remakes are rarely successful and are usually crap compared to the shows. I hope they do not make a "Magnum" movie. But, for several years now they have been trying to make one...along with a movie version of "Hawaii Five-0." But, now they're trying a new updated TV series of "5-0." We'll see how long that lasts. New TV versions of "Bionic Woman" and "Knight Rider" both failed.What they need to do (although I don't know if the original show cast would ever agree to this either??) is make reunion TV movies of both "MV" and "Magnum!" At one point Selleck stated that if there was enough money for everyone involved and the script was good enough...he might consider seeing what Magnum was up to after 20-some years. We can hope!

ViceFanMan Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Last summer (2010) I did a "Miami Vice" marathon, and went through the whole series again--something I had not done for a couple years.This summer (starting just a couple days ago) I am doing a "Magnum, p.i." marathon, and am going through that whole series!Because of this, I remembered this thread from a year ago and checked out the "Magnum" fansite (Magnum-Mania.com). It's awesome and I ended up joining--already posting in many threads, and conversing with "Magnum" fans there! It's just as awesome as this "MV" fansite! So, for those (like me) that loved (and still do love) both "Miami Vice" and "Magnum, p.i."--then check out Magnum-Mania.com!! Aloha! Also, as I have many "MV" style/colored shirts, I also have tons of Hawaiian shirts too! For those who are "true" Magnum fans and wish to have an official replica of the famous red Jungle Bird shirt Tom Selleck wore on the show....check out the online store MauiShirts.com! They offer a ton of Hawaiian and Aloha clothing and items...but the best part is they offer at least 3 different shirts (including the Jungle Bird one) that are the same ones Tom Selleck wore on "Magnum, p.i."! I ordered a red Jungle Bird one not even a week ago and I got it yesterday! They're hand made, official Paradise Lost (original company that made a lot of the shirts Selleck wore on "Magnum") shirts--superb quality complete with real bamboo buttons!Just throwing all this out there for "Magnum" fans!

cageyJG Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Magnum fans? Right here, baby. I have season 3 for trade if anyone is interested. Used to be a nice escape when I was on my "heck assignment" out of town for awhile. Think I'd rather spring for a Magnum P.I. t-shirt with the moustache and the Ferrari than another Hawaiian shirt.This weekend, there's supposed to be a new episode of Selleck's new made for t.v. movies, "Jesse Stone" or some such. It's on CBS, tonight (or already was on last night), if I can find it, I'll flip it on for awhile. I can imagine why you'd be an alcoholic if you lived in New Haven, Connecticut for too long.

LOL! Higgins did sort of resemble Hitler now that you mention it...but you liked Higgins. I did always like the idea they "toyed" with, that Higgins really was Robin Masters and was always putting on a charade. They never did really reveal the truth...and I like that.Interesting that you mention Mai Tai's! A Mai Tai is one of my favorite Hawaiian drinks, and MaiTaiMan is my username on Magnum-Mania.com! LOL! By the way, as of right now I have not had any...yet! It's only 6:00 where I live and the night hasn't even begun yet! I will be having a few while watching "Magnum" tonight!

Frey Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 will be having a few while watching "Magnum" tonight! I agree with you about Higgins. I always thought he sort of resembled Hitler in his behavior towards Magnum and when he was re-enacting battles or talking about ones he fought in.I thought MaiTaiMan was your username. My username there is StarchedUndershirts. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarchedUndershirts...original! ;)I don't know if they purposely made Higgins kind of like Hitler--with how he looked, as well as his attitiude towards Magnum and war history, or if John Hillerman's appearance was just a coincidence? Whatever the case, I'd much prefer Higgins to Hitler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried drinking "Jack"...but I've never really been able to like it very much. I'm not really into "hard" alcohol. I like beer, margaritas, wine, Mai Tai's, Blue Hawaiians, and other kinds of mixed drinks. But, I know Crockett liked his "Jackie"...to each his or her own!
