Now that I've seen the awesomeness that is this photo, I'm getting excited. June, 2010!

London. Then NYC. Now London
I must say in the old A team, I always had a mad teenage crush on Face, so Bradley Cooper has a lot to live up to - but from this photo, he looks good. And Liam Neeson looks awesome as well. Thanks Chaos, am now very excited also!

I have hope for this one. Liam Neeson is one of the few actors who can single-handedly keep a movie from completely sucking.

I didn't see a lot of the original A Team, but I hope in the movie they move more in the direction of "one shot, one kill":)

I loved the A-Team! Especially Madman Murdoch.
Hope the new one is true to the original. But it might be more exciting if a character actually got hurt after their Jeep flipped over 18 times.

I liked the A-Team. But meh, nostalgia sells. I see no other reason to see this movie. Any word on a plot? Didn't think so.

Great photo - Liam Neeson does look great. Too bad Jessica "I just puked a little in my mouth" Biel is in it.

Eh, the A-team doesn't really need a plot. Lots of explosions and accidents that would kill any mere mortal but from which the A-team walk away unscathed will do it for me. Tell me that the idea of this movie, an AC'd movie theater and some popcorn won't be IT on some scorching summer afternoon.

Nobody ever died in the A-Team, not event he bad guys. Their helicopter slammed into a cliff and blew up? Next shoot they're all gettin up from the wreckage, groaning. And hundreds of bullets flew each week, and NO ONE was ever hurt.

Ok, when I read the titled, I groaned. Out loud. But that picture looks awesome! Liam Neeson is a great actor, and Bradley Cooper? Drool

I'm actually very curious to see how they handle this in the film. In the series, the A-Team was a group of fugitives, but they weren't murderers or mercenaries. They did jobs to help folks and make enough money to eat (and afford Face's stylish wardrobe) and stay ahead of the Army.

They were heroes. They stopped the bad guy, but didn't kill him. Was it unrealistic at times? Sure, especially when cars blew up and people crawled out (but don't discount broken ribs and internal bleeding!). They didn't aim their guns at people, so obviously they weren't going to shoot them.

If the A-Team had killed someone (or several someones) during one of their jobs, not only would they be killers to the Army, they'd be killers to local law enforcement, and the folks who hired them would be culpable.

There was at least one death in the entire series IIRC. The Colonel (or whoever was chasing them at that point in the series, actually got killed off in the penultimate or final season. I'd have to check my DVDs to see which episode it is, but every episode tends to look the same after a couple of viewings. The death of a character did stick out though.

This is the film that ruined the epic scheduled Rampage / Evans fight and drove Rampage from the UFC (at least for now) so I have some significant hatred for it. I hope it bombs just so Rampage will come back to the octagon.

Thanks so much for the link!! It's it wrong that I squeeeee'd while watching it?

I have to admit I was skeptical about Bradley Cooper playing Face when I first heard about the casting, but... um.... I'm over it!

Well, I'm excited.

Finally, a 2010 movie that might not disappoint me!
