I don’t feel any need to be negative. It’s a good movie, and I can absolutely see how it could be turned into a great series.

Yeah I mean it’s a pretty ripe idea for a series tons of stories you can pull out of it. It’s a corrupt cop town close to nyc.

Doctors? On TV? You must be smoking something.

I'm just praying we finally get something that shows the seedy underbelly of LA or NYC.

It's terrible how NYC and LA are both totally ignored by Hollywood

Finally, comments so generic you can’t tell if they’re human or bot.

But why? Who can they get in these roles who will be as good as Stallone, Ray Liotta, De Niro and Harvey Keitel were?

Sylvester Stallone: Milo Ventimigilia Ray Liotta: Miles Teller Robert De Niro: Noah Emmerich Harvey Keitel: Harvey Keitel

You could have easily said the same thing after the MASH movie, as many thought Donald Sutherland, Eliot Gould, and the rest were perfectly cast, and yet the TV show eventually surpassed the movie in the public mind, with Alan Alda replacing Donald Sutherland as the iconic Hawkeye. I love Cop Land, but much like MASH, this is going to be its own thing when it’s done as a continuing premise rather than a tight hour and 45 minutes with a beginning, middle, and end.

Yeah, but, the MASH tv show wasn't done by the guy who did Dial of Destiny.

95% an all time amazing cast, and then there’s the remaining 5% that is Michael Rapaport.

Not 100% opposed given that my main criticism of Copland is that it feels like a condensed miniseries.

If any show was going to be on anything branded “Paramount”, it definitely would be a “Cop Land” TV show.

Cop Land is top tier. I love it. In a content cluttered, streaming landscape, I cant say this holds any interest to me.  Feels like an IP exploit vs any creative need.  But maybe I still have rationalized how the guy who made Cop Land could give us a sad, depressed, drunk Indy who complained and time traveled.

I thought Miramax died once Disney sold it, well before TWC collapsed. Kinda ironic that now Fox Searchlight is one of their main divisions.

They’ve lingered on a done quite a few productions with other companies, but they don’t really get top credit as a studio like they used to. Their television division has also been pretty busy, though it seems most of that stuff is connected to films from their heyday. I think at this point their back catalog and their ability to exploit it is all they have going for them.
