You know, these Hollywood “geniuses” kill me.
If you don’t want the character/actor to be like Magnum,
then why are they making a Magnum movie?
(”Hey, let’s make Bonanza, but with cops and aliens!”)

The people who would be interested in seeing a Magnum movie are interested in seeing the Magnum character they know.
You change that, you change the movie…
and you change the audience. (or drive it away.)

This type of rework has rarely payed off.
Case in point, Starsky and Hutch.
(Show = good cop drama, movie = steaming pile.)

Hey, Grazer…
get CREATIVE and write your own P.I. story
and leave Magnum and Higgins out of it!
