old tv show..miami vice

[iwishiwasthere]

Bored and channel surfing ( needed a break from the NFL draft after Vince Yound went to the Titans), I came upon Miami VIce. What a flashback! It is funny to see what was so cool in the eighties...it is a 48 hour marathon...

Back in the day, my friends and I had "tea" parties....may need to go to the loquor store soon

I lived in Miami when they started filming and I wondered who those 2 guys were in the convertible with the guns on Brickell Avenue.

DJ was going to buy Big Bryan's house on Venetian Causway...I guess it was not big enough for him at the time... or was it little Bryan's house right next door??????

I loved the old Miami Vice; I thought it was very good, certainly progressive for its day. I loved the music, the imagery, South Beach.
Those old shows epitomize the glitzy 80's.
Who could forget the t-shirts under the rolled-up Armani jacket sleeves!
Actually, I love all of director Michael Mann's stuff. He is remaking Miami Vice as a feature film but it will take place in the present--no pastels allowed. ;-)
The film will star Colin Farell and Jamie Foxx, and will come out this summer.

I bet Phil Collins won't be in it either.

I don't understand why they are making it present day. Cocaine is not nearly a big deal as it was then. Maybe Crockett and Tubbs will be busting crack dealers.

I would rather see a comic remake with Stiller and Wilson - oh wait, that's been done.

Actually, I can live without Phil. ;-)
Here's the plot summary for Miami Vice 2006: Yup, drug trafficking

Hah!
That was one movie in which I had never much watched the original TV show.
But I did think the remake was pretty funny.

Someone on another messageboard I go to uses that as an avatar.
Quite distracting.
