Lot's of jabbering about the ending being a possible set up for a Shield movie, despite Shawn Ryan's alleged insistence that there would be none.
If a Shield movie (starring Chickey and other remaining cast members, of course) does come out some day, would you want to see it? I would not be able to resist.

Resistance is futile.

Wait, what? I thought in those interviews he said it wasn't impossible, and who knows what the future holds kinda mish mosh.
Personally, it's subjective. At this moment in time I feel like the show had the perfect send off, overall. I'd hate for anything to taint the most amazing finale by a possible okay movie. It's hard to revisit (stuff that matters).
A few years down the line? Who knows. I may be up for it. It just all depends on the story for it. Maybe if Shawn Ryan makes the same promise on the movie (when it's almost out) as he did on the finale, I'd be more likely to see it.
As it stands, gimmie the goddamn season 7 set already!

id see it, i can see it, 3 yrs vic done with ice, goes all joe clark(f*ck is that carl weather's character's name?)im a dumbass, anyway, he gets some money tries to find his kids, maybe visits ronnie, just to be called a rat, because he betrayed him
id love it specially if ryan and sutter wrote the script,
vic mackey wouldnt be the same, 3 years in guilt for having all his loyal men, die and one in prison for life,
lem, vic's fault, shane, vic's fault, ronnie, definitely vic's fault

I would have to see it just to see where Vic was going when the finale ended. Maybe he was going to see "someone" to "insist" on a deal where Ronnie gets off without prison. I dont know if I would say what Shane did was Vic's fault. Shane was fine when he thought he had something to hold over Vic's head and not having that, I dont know how you go from there to murder/suicide. Not having leverage over Vic should not have been the end of his world. My response would have been to just take off and get as far away as possible and not even deal with Vic anymore.

It would be neat to see it if they made it after the 3 years is up with ICE.

To clear the confusion about what Shawn Ryan said regarding a possible movie, here's an excerpt from Alan Sepinwall's awesome interview(s) with Shawn RyanThe series ends with Vic alive and relatively free, and while you strongly hint at what's to come for Claudette and Dutch and some of the others, could you ever see yourself revisiting this world in some form a few years down the road?[/b] Possibly. I might be interested in where Vic Mackey is when that three years with ICE is up. I don't think it would be as a TV series. I don't know if anyone would want to make a movie of it. Again, we're not a "Sopranos," "Sex and the City"-esque hit, but we've also made our shows cheap and dirty and it's done well overseas, so that's something I could investigate. But if anything came out of it, it would only be after giving FX the ending the series deserved. We did not leave anything out in order to preserve the opportunity to do something like that.

It's time to let it go and savor what we had. If a movie were to come out, chances are we'd want a sequel. It's time to be satiated.

If it's a series of occasional FX TV movies (like maybe 1 year or every 18 months), yes I'd see it. If you mean a cinema movie, 20th Century Fox who own FX, would force it to be an action movie (like their recent crap film Street Kings that badly flopped) and make Vic be like John McClane or Jack Bauer (which I don't have a complaint about), in order to appeal to people who've never seen The Shield and would know nothing of who Vic is.

He has no TRUE guilt...just denial and anger. He's a sociopath. Literally. There'll never be a movie. There's no need.

I like this suggestion, not my own, from another web site that was discussing the ending of the show.
This other person said something to the effect of .... in 10 years they should do a reunion show. It would only be one minute long.
* Vic at home on couch watching football * Doorbell rings * Vic answers door * BANG - bullet right in the forehead Roll credits
some have suggested Ronnie be the shooter, some suggested Dutch, Aceveda, or some banger. But best I heard was this ... just BANG ... roll credits. And it is NEVER revealed who finally kills him.

I just read an interview with Chicky about the finale, and he said "the shield is done" no movie, but "Vic Mackey" who knows? and laughed. A Vic mackey movie? But the shield is DONE, so says Chicky and SR.

if i was a film maker Id do a mini series, on FX,down the line, if shawn ryan adn the main writing staff were up for it,
you can have cameo's of some of the other key characters, but i think it would have to revolve after the 3 years in ice, what would vic do to find his kids, would he beg dani to see lee,
3 years tied down he might change,he might grow weak
i picture clauddete sick in a hospital, dutch doing well,
vic visiting shane's grave,
finally trying to do some right, but never bein able to gain forgiveness from ronnie

That ain't half bad, bachatan. Movie wise, but I'm not on board the mini series trip.

please no movie..I loved the ending and it ended perfectly. I love to see where its goes from there. Where Vic would be in three years, or how Ronnie is holding up in prison. I feel honestly that the finale sums it all up.

id see it, i can see it, 3 yrs vic done with ice, goes all joe clark(f*ck is that carl weather's character's name?)im a dumbass, anyway, he gets some money tries to find his kids, maybe visits ronnie, just to be called a rat, because he betrayed him id love it specially if ryan and sutter wrote the script, vic mackey wouldnt be the same, 3 years in guilt for having all his loyal men, die and one in prison for life, lem, vic's fault, shane, vic's fault, ronnie, definitely vic's fault Jesus I can tell your one of those people who doesnt take responsibility for his own actions. lem is vics fault? I think it would be the fault of aceveda who told them that he was going to rat, or the fault of shane who actually dropped the bomb on lems lap. shane is vics fault? I think shane was old enough to know what was right and wrong and still went along with it all and got himself in these messes. shane was definitely shanes fault, whether vic made him worse or not is debatable ronnie, yes it is vics fault. anyway back on topic of seeing the movie, yes I would have to see it hopefully it wouldnt be in the future maybe a prequel or something.

It all started (going down hill that is) when Shane got into bed with Mitchell. All the events of the past 3 seasons have been dealing with the steps Vic and the Team took to clear Shane from Mitchell. If they hadn’t have helped Shane, then Lem wouldn’t have taken the drugs, IAD wouldn’t have gotten involved, Shane wouldn’t have killed Lem, and so on and so on. As far as “The Shield” movie? I’m torn on the subject. On one hand I would love to see it because I love this show and Vic. However, on the other hand I’d be worried it would suck so hard that it would turn me off to the show.
