Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 Miami Vice Teaser Trailer Eh, i'll admit... I am a sucker for the mindless big budget action flim. Not all of them, but a few do hold a place in my movie-goer heart. I'll have faith in this due to... 1. It being directed by Michael Mann 2. Jamie Foxx seems to get better in each picture (I won't count "Stealth" since that was pre-oscar) Any thoughts?
Dimensions Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 that trailer doesn't look half bad
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 Looks like Bad Boys 2. But I'm a Miami Vice fan and I love action movies in general so I'll still see it.
Black Lushus Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 I don't care for Farrell but I'll be checking this one out.
2GOLD Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 I'd rather see a Bacardi and Cola movie.
Black Lushus Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 I'd rather see a Bacardi and Cola movie. me too....seriously!
Art Sandusky Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 The theme wasn't heard anywhere in the trailer. No way it'll be good. It MUST have that theme. It'll probably end up being a normal big-budget movie that just happens to be called Miami Vice and has characters with the same names.
Black Lushus Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 nah Kotz, it'll be a hip, technoed out version or a rap song with pieces of it mixed in...in other words, it will suck...
2GOLD Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 I'd rather see a Bacardi and Cola movie. me too....seriously! I was being serious. I'd go see that movie twice. For full price!
Cowboy Battlenuts Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 I'd rather go see a Bacardi and Cola movie than King Kong so that's not exactly an insult.
JasonX Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 I'd rather see a Bacardi and Cola movie. Speaking of B&C, is it just me or is the guy playing the white guy in those commercials David Rees Snell from "The Shield"? Cause I've looked on the internet, ever since those ads first started airing and haven't been able to find out the names of the two actors to confirm my theory that it's him in those commercials....
Ravenbomb Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 I'd rather see a Bacardi and Cola movie. That'd kick ass. "Ladies, we have a problem...we're gonna need about 4 more ladies."
cawthon777 Posted December 23, 2005 Report Posted December 23, 2005 I've been a fan of the show since I was about 4 so I'll see it. Plus, Michael Mann wrote and directed the film. I'm optimistic.
spman Posted December 23, 2005 Report Posted December 23, 2005 Dammit, where is my MacGyver and Knight Rider movies?
Dandy Posted December 25, 2005 Report Posted December 25, 2005 Those movies would kick ass, but we need M.A.S.K. as a blockbuster trilogy. Tell me that wouldn't rock out with its proverbial cock out.
Mole Posted December 25, 2005 Report Posted December 25, 2005 Way too much work just to find the trailer.

devo Posted December 25, 2005 Report Posted December 25, 2005 http://forums.thesmartmarks.com/index.php?showtopic=74600 If anything, it'll be entertaining in a car wreck sort of way.
bobobrazil1984 Posted December 26, 2005 Report Posted December 26, 2005 the trailer is out over at quicktime.com 's movie trailer section.
Vyce Posted December 26, 2005 Report Posted December 26, 2005 I might go see this, but honestly, the only thing this film looks to have in common with the original 80s TV series is Michael Mann and the name.
haVoc Posted December 26, 2005 Report Posted December 26, 2005 Okay. I get it already. Jamie Foxx is a Academy Award Winner. Don't have to attach it to his name every single time.
MDH257 Posted December 26, 2005 Report Posted December 26, 2005 That's not just Jamie Foxx, everybody gets that "Oscar Winnner" tagged attached to their name. This may turn out decent. But when I heard that Michael Mann was actually directing, it just seems like a waste of his time.
cawthon777 Posted December 26, 2005 Report Posted December 26, 2005 I'm sure he sees the show as his baby since he was executive producer for the series.
JasonX Posted December 27, 2005 Report Posted December 27, 2005 I'm sure he sees the show as his baby since he was executive producer for the series. That and IIRC he owns a rather large piece of the rights to the show; supposedly that's why he's involved in the movie remake of the series, since early reports was that the studio wanted to repeat what was done with Startsky and Hutch (take the name of the franchise and basically turn it into a "Let's mock the decade show came out during" farce with little to no connection to the TV series) and Mann refused to allow them to make it into a film unless he was in charge of making the film so as to ensure the property wasn't soundly trashed for the sake of a bunch of lame 80s jokes......
Vyce Posted December 27, 2005 Report Posted December 27, 2005 Is this film supposed to even be set in the 80s? I'll have to look at the trailer again but I didn't seem to get that vibe. Maybe I wasn't paying attention.
cawthon777 Posted December 27, 2005 Report Posted December 27, 2005 No, it's set in the current day. There's a brief synopsis of the film on the website.
