Yes, a Mann fan, since I was child and watched 'Miami Vice'……..which was executive produced by Mann and helmed for 2 seasons, his handprints are all over the show. His vision was what 'Miami Vice' was really about….The pressure and paranoia/conflict of undercover work, the dirty and heartless streets, the audacity and failure of the US policy and the war on drugs….The toll the work takes on personal lives, Mann took the elements of 'Vice' that he liked and helped shape, and left the bullshyt where it belonged. If you want a quasi serious, massive body count pile up action comedy, with speedboats and car chases, then you want 'Bad Boys', that is not 'Miami Vice'. I will admit the first 'Bad Boys' had some elements but Mann's was truer to the source material…..It is just inaccurate to say that then tv series was lighthearted fun, yes it had some goofy 80's shyt, but the central show was nowhere near light or comic.

Mann has been wack as fukk for a while now. Dude should just retire because his movies pretty much since collateral have all been awful.

Michael Mann is one of the finest filmmakers there is. And his Miami Vice (director's cut feature) is fukking incredible. he wanted to show a realistic view of undercover life, and how lonely and dangerous it really was. If you watch the first 2 seasons of Miami Vice the TV series, you'll see it has a lot of grim elements. It wasn't on no Bad Boys shyt. it pretty dark. His movie is an updated reflection of that.

well this isn't a full trailer, it's a teaser. Itd be more fair to compare both teasers

i might be mistaken, but I don't recall a teaser for season 1...the only trailer i ever saw for that show was the one posted...that's all they showed, there never was a dialogue-less teaser....

Looks different which could be a good thing. I'm all the way in.

It's only a teaser.

I'm no True Detective hater but please tell me what part of the show was among the best written ever?

Was it the plagiarized dialogue of Matthew McConaughey? Or was it the intricate planting of details and seeds that ultimately led to no particular resolution?

:troll:
What was unresolved?

i aint feeling it, guess i'll just have to wait till im in a few episodes. But its partly because those actors have never given me any reason to think they have crafted their work. They have all been stuck doin the same shyt in films they have done. Maybe they will show some range.
Aver que pasa.
