I missed this. Can someone give us a brief synopsis?

Just found a transcript of the entire interview, Here's the part pertaining to the MPI movie.
BLITZER: Tom, I want you to turn around and look at the video screen. Look the other way, right there. You remember that, right?

SELLECK: That would be Thomas [Magnum].

BLITZER: That would be you.

SELLECK: Yes.

BLITZER: We all remember that on the big screen. You know there's a lot of rumors circulating that there will be a major motion picture.

SELLECK: Yes. They haven't called or they haven't written, but whatever happens with magnum feature film, I have no idea. Here's what I hope doesn't happen, and I think people recognize this. When studios buy television shows and make big movies out of it, they spend $100 million and create big explosions and make fun of it. That will not work with Magnum. Magnum is more like "Star Trek." The fans of Magnum are now two or three generations, no more alliance from the show than I remember. If they do make a Magnum movie, I hope they pay homage to it.

BLITZER: Will you be a star in it?

SELLECK: As soon as they ask. As long as he is not 26 years old.

Anyone find video online yet?

I really don't care for Wolf Blitzer, but he nailed it right on the head.
SELLECK: That would be Thomas [Magnum].
BLITZER: That would be you.
I'm quite sure he didn't know what he was saying, but he should have just come right out and said "SELLECK IS MAGNUM".

Thanks for the transcript Mike, and Wolf did nail it!

Could you post the link to the transcript, N1095A? I'd like to know what he said about Viet Nam vets, too.

I'm really feeling like he's more visible now...with the Jesse Stone movies and now with the Viet Nam Memorial. We can only hope that having him in the public eye more will help our case for a "reunion" movie. And he's sure doing his part...he doesn't miss an opportunity to say what he wants that movie to be.

I sure wish we could find out what's going on behind the scenes. Maybe it's time for a letter-writing campaign. Or maybe it's too late. Who knows?

As pointed out earlier, I think TS has seen the website, and/or forum. I just get that feeling, and when he speaks about MPI, or the movie, he's drawing on that.
