A-Team movie remake, wtf?
I just saw a snippet of it on all things, an orange mobile network tv advert. I only caught a flash of it but I am steadfast in my belief that it's out this year.

-TBP EACW teaser
-Earth Brakiri war
-TBP Fortune Hunters (I think?)
-TBP Relic
-Trancsend (Possibly?)
-Uncharted Territory
-Vassagos Dirge
-War Machine
(Others lost to the mists of time and no discernible audit trail)

I don't know. I mean, it looks pretty freakin' awesome.

Besides, you're drunk half the time. Therefore your opinion is invalid.

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

It needs more publicity I wouldn't have minded a bit of warning.

well shooting down a UCAV with the cupola weapon on a tank being parachuted from a destroyed C-130 was kinda cool...

In a completely OTT way

Re: A-Team movie remake, wtf?
it's out may or june, maybe july 4th, i heard of it a few months ago.

now, i'm a fan of Mr. T (!), and yeah, he's not in it, but still, i think it looks like it may be entertaining.
I'll watch it, eventually.

Resurrecting a franchise with nostalgic appeal for 18-35 year olds means having a critic proof, built-in audience, and minimizing the risk like that in a big-budget release is a lot more important to the producers than actually making a decent movie.  And yeah, the A-Team without T is a complete joke.  Pity the fools.

They made it completely serious.

It's the freaking A-Team. You can't do that.

Let's reserve judgment on that until the actual film comes out.

Aren't they a little old?

Shutup foo! Get my pills
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

 :P

They actually had me wondering if this might just possibly be a faithfully made tribute to the greatness of the original show until that point. After that I just started looking to see if Michael Bay was directing. :p

Re: A-Team movie remake, wtf?
Ok, the A-team was before my time. The only thing that would really phase me would be if they made a movie out of the Doom series or if they made movies out of the Resident.... evil.... series... wait a second, they did, and they were all horrible! Hollywood, ironically, is the best reason not to watch TV. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle. The other half involves a lot of death and war, but I digress.  :)

Hey!  I enjoyed Doom for what it was: an attempt to make a movie out of a less than engaging story from an old video game.

The concept of a Doom movie was all well and good until they replaced the demons-from-Hell premise with some genetic-engineering-gone-wrong bull****.  Seriously, how the hell do you **** up a story as simplistic as that? :p

*wonders if he's the only person who feels that movie would have been far better if filmed completely from first-person perspective*

Re: A-Team movie remake, wtf?
That movie would have been fricking awesome filmed entirely in first person.

I think they ****ed up a story that simple because it was that simple.  What part of that plot can a movie use without being The Last Action Hero IN SPAAAAACE?
