I mean...
Screw it..
This point I don't care. Sure, might as well give it a go. Top Gun was way better than I was prepared to give it credit for. Heat is one of the best Heist/Thrillers I've ever seen and still love that street scene and them moving through the blocks. Might work. I'll keep an open mind.

Heat is one of my favourite films, A masterpiece imo, But this is totally unnecessary it's one of them films that just doesn't need a sequel or prequel.
Represent.

I bought the book and nothing can prepare for how bad it is. I never quit books once I start but I chunked it 100 pages or so in.
Also, this is a headline as old as time. Mann has been saying this for a long time and just repeated it again on a panel recently. I’m in full believe it when I see it mode at this point.

what's next, Collateral 2? Both movies in my all time favorite list but already had satisfying conclusions. No need to try to expand them

Well the book appears to be both a prequel and a sequel and has been reviewed quite well by parts of the community, so I'm interested.

When the option is this or stuff like Robyn Hood, I’ll take these prequels. But for be damed if this is all Hollywood has to offer I’m going to A24 in a monogamous relationship.

If Mann is behind it I'll embrace it.
You can't just be cynical all the time. Unless some have a better idea of what an aging director should do with his last movies.

A sequel where Max finally has his Mercedes taxi company, and Is married with Jada Pinkett.
It would be boring.

CGI de-aging would be great for this

Mansoor, the de-aging in The Irishman was absolute cack, it was so bad that everytime actors were on screen it would destroy any immersion.CGI de-aging would be great for this
Deepfake nowadays is better than the Irishman alternative.

Let me guess. It's about a group of sassy streetwise teens who rob a corner store to save their community dance academy.

This comment is blasphemous to the Heat religion

If you really think that then godspeed bro
Thief actually has more in common with Heat if we're rolling with the Mann library
Heat is basically Thief 2

The novel he released last year is actually pretty okay, in a campy kind of way.
However, it is both a prequel to and a direct continuation of the first movie which brings a ton of problems regarding casting. Imagine having to recast Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Val Kilmer, Ashley Judd, Tom Sizemore, Jon Voight, Danny Trejo while keeping the on-screen chemistry. Good fucking luck with that.
Also, Michael Mann hasn't made a good movie in decades.

I agree. I was giving you a little troll engagement.
Miami vice is a good procedural cop show. Heat is great heist film.

What was the last good one? Collateral?

Heat 2 is generally a widely loved novel.

Michael Mann is one of my favorite directors ever, but clearly his career is over.
Let your past glories rest, don’t sully them.
Please.

This is me. A Heat prequel, by Mann? Sure, why the hell not? I'll be there opening weekend.

Heat is my favorite film of all time. The follow-up book was ... alright, but this is one of those cases where a prequel or sequel is completely unnecessary and likely only to sully the reputation of the original by association. Just bring the '95 movie back for another theatrical run, I would absolutely go for that.

I don't know... Mann always seemed to be pretty picky about the projects he invests himself in. Takes his time between films. You could be right, but I doubt it.

I'm in. Why not.
If Villeneuve can bounce around good and bad movies then produce something like the latest Dune movie I give every free pass to Mann as well. Fingers crossed.
