    I checked out the Heat 2 book thingy, thinking to myself, “it’s Michael Mann, how bad can it be?” I couldn’t get past page 10.

    It’s so much worse than you might imagine, not even fanfic quality.

      I read your comment many hours ago yet Heat 2 being a blatant money grab continued to bother me. Why should I care? That’s the norm for the US. But after I rewatched Heat - I listened to Mann’s commentary track. He struck me as somebody who had integrity. Or at least some integrity. It’s disappointing.
