Posted on number 2 Buzz of top movie talk in the internet. not sure how rialable they are but it's also just a rumor

On the show, I've seen a guy get his face melted on an electric stove, a couple of other guys stuffed into a tower of car tires and set on fire and another dude beaten to death with a chain, so my stomach's already churning about what sick stuff they might come up with in a film.

" TS is the perfect type of show to garner movie talk. I personally don't see any way it happens, at least 99.9% sure, because for it to be a hit I think the original Strike Team would have to be in tact and it would almost seem like TS would just be attempting to just hang on. Just an opinion though. As I've stated before, stranger things have happened with this show.

It wouldnt be "the shield - the movie" it would be "Vic Mackey - The movie". He would be the only shield character in it and it would be like Die Hard but with Chiklis instead of Willis.

It wouldn't be a money maker film, it would be for us true die hard fans. Chicky would need to take a break from the Fantastic 4 series....

Yup, the way TS is ending now, I cant see this happening tbh. I understand rumours about The Sopranos Movie might just be through thanks to a horrible ending(haven't seen it yet) but I just cant see a movie happening. Bad idea in my view

A film wouldn't work, in my view. It would have to inform everyone of the current events and if any dialogue about past events took place, people who aren't with 'The Shield' wouldn't have a clue what they're talking about. Same with Sopranos. It really only works as television.

I heard Chiklis say in some interview that once the show is over, it's OVER. That there would be no room to go back and rekindle it, for credibility's sake. Kurt Sutter said in a blog that we (as fans) would be emotionally and creatively satisfied with the ending, so that must mean Vic isn't in prison or dead. It could happen, but I agree with what's been thrown around above that without the original Strike Team a movie would not have the same ... quality? Is that the word I'm looking for?

mhm i think it would be possible, because there is no information about how the strike team was born/created. Maybe they will show how it started, because as i see from Season 1 there was only said, that Vic and Shane know themselves a long time and the others did come later. It would be really interesting how the Strike Team united. There must be something before. Mhm maybe i wait till season 2 and the other arrive to me. Cause it is not easy to get the Seasons in Germany, because here is only Season 1 displayed in TV. Greetz Blean

No way! No one else could ever replace the cast they have now!

I doubt that there will be a shield movie. I have complete faith that the writers have ended the show so perfectly, that making a movie would just be senseless. Besides, I don't think I would like for them to do a movie. I mean the finale of Sex and the City was so spot on, that I am hoping that the movie doesn't screw up what an awesome ending the show had. I would hate to have those same feelings for a shield movie as well.

i agree that a movie wouldnt do the show justice, without the original team
my opinion though is that if they did a movie based on the upcoming events that happened after the copilot leading upto the first episode of season 1

I definitely agree that the only possible movie, and I don't think there will be one, would be based on events before Pilot. Between Co-Pilot and Pilot or pre-Co-Pilot both sound like they could have interesting possibilities. I also have to agree that I would watch either of those movies and love it. What the hell, they might as well make movies from both of those scenarios!!! And how about "The Strike Team--the Wonder Years", LOL!!!

AAGGGHHHH! Something tells me someone's gonna try it with The Shield in about ten years unless Vic gets killed. I tell ya, it's the only way to really end it!
The A-Team Countdown Begins By Joal Ryan Mon Mar 24, 5:14 AM PDT If you've been holding your breath for The A-Team movie, well, we feel sorry for you.
But help is on the way for you and your oxygen-deprived brain. So just hold on. Until June 12. Of next year. Feel better? You should, actually.
The release date, as reported by Variety, is the first for the long-discussed, long-suffering project.
John Singleton, who last yelled cut on Four Brothers, will direct; Michael Bandt and Derek Haas, who helped shoot the lights out with 3:10 to Yuma, are writing the screenplay.
As reported, the movie will follow the basic recipe of the 1983-87 TV series: Take four ex-military men; add one war crime they didn't commit; mix in chases, pursuits and more chases.
Given the source material, Singleton has promised an action movie, a serious action movie—"wall to wall kicking ass and talking s--t," as he put it to Collider.com. The film presently is sans actors, A-list, B-team or otherwise, as Singleton himself has made very clear.
"I don't know who is in the cast yet, so all this bulls--t of who is saying who is this person and who is [this person]," Singleton told Collider.com.
Singleton did allow that he "really, really want" Woody Harrelson to play "Howling Mad" Murdoch, the sanity challenged pilot given life on the TV series by Dwight Schultz.
In the interview, conducted in January, Singleton sounded a lot like a man who's been a little bit hounded by fans demanding to know who's going to play Mr. T.
"Nobody is playing Mr. T—the character's name is B.A. Baracus," the filmmaker reminded.
And, no, before you bother Mr. Singleton again, B.A. Baracus hasn't been cast yet, either. Ice Cube, however, has thrown his Mohawk into the ring.
"Hell yeah," the Barbershop multitasker recently told blackfilm.com when asked if he'd consider copping a "Bad Attitude," as it were, "especially with John Singleton directing!"
And, yes, we know Ice Cube doesn't really have a Mohawk to throw into a ring. But that could change.
"I wouldn't try to duplicate what Mr. T did," he told the Website. "I'm going to bring my own flavor to it, and I am going to do the Mohawk."
The race seems wide open for the roles of Col. "Hannibal" Smith, the disguise-handy ringleader, and the smooth-talking "Face" Peck, played on the TV series by the late George Peppard and the still-plugging-away Dirk Benedict, respectively.
Even with the cast undetermined, an announced director and a release date marks the furthest along the movie has gotten since the project started raising hopes nearly 10 years ago amid a spate of TV-to-film conversions, à la Charlie's Angels, The Mod Squad and Wild Wild West. Per the calendar keepers at the Internet Movie Database, on June 12, 2009, the big-screen A-Team will go head-to-head with an Eddie Murphy comedy called NowhereLand. Which is about where The A-Team movie used to live.

Same with Sopranos. It really only works as television. people said the same thing about serenity its about the fans when it comes to shows like firefly, shield, sopranos.. and if they did make a sopranos movie which theres still rumors going around, it would most likely be an HBO movie

If a movie were to happen, I'd think it would have to be a prequel. Shane/Vic and the relationship they had prior to the series. You could resurect a number of characters and enrich the series. One movie would be good, and, doable.

if it weren't for the (i hate to say it cause i this is my ALL TIME favorite) plot holes in the timeline for the co-pilot episode a prequel might work, but i honestly hope they air the finale and blow us away (you all know they will) and that's it. period. i will miss this show like crazy and probably grieve (so sick and pathetic i am so obcessed with this show), but i think it's going to be perfect the way it is after it ends and i hope sr and the writers will leave it at that.
ab
p.s. hey walther, my dad has a sticker on the back of his car that says "my other AUTO is a walther p99". i had never seen the name walther until then and now i see it here. how funny.

From MTV News:
With just under two months until the series finale of “The Shield,” talk from the TV show’s fiercely loyal fanbase is beginning to turn once again to rumors that one of the greatest cop dramas of all time could live on — as a feature film?
About a year ago, Emmy winner Michael Chiklis revealed to us that “there are a lot of questions about the potential of a ‘Shield’ movie these days,” and we remarked at the time that it would be interesting to see what happens to Vic Mackey in the years to come, assuming he makes it through Season 7 alive. But according to his former co-star Michael Pena, even if Vic does die it could invite a prequel to bring him back from the dead.
“Oh yeah, that would be awesome,” said Pena, who played Strike Team member Army Renta, one of the few characters on the show to witness Vic’s dark side and then actually walk away. “That would be really interesting, because I think that they would have to [bring Army back]. I’d have to be going up against Vic Mackey, and I would love to see that story line.”
“I don’t think many guys are still alive [besides me],” reasoned Pena, who can currently be seen alongside Tim Robbins and Rachel McAdams in the military dramedy “The Lucky Ones.” “I don’t think there’s been any [other] Strike Team guys that came out alive. There’s [Walton] Goggins, his character is still on. Lemonhead died; Lemon’s gone. Then there’s Ronnie the Beard Guy …”
I don’t know about you, but the simple fact that he refers to Vic’s right-hand man as “Ronnie the Beard Guy” makes me want to promise to see every Michael Pena movie ever made. With any luck, that will include a “Shield” film in theaters someday — and after the success of “Sex and the City,” it seems like the timing has never been better for a small-screen cop to make the leap.
Would you like to see a “Shield” movie? What plotline would you want to see?
