I pity the fool who don't know the A-Team!
Thursday, April 15, 2010 at 9:58AM When I was a kid, I'd come home after an hour long bus ride, and run to religiously catch the A-Team. I enjoyed their integrity, leadership qualities, teambuilding scenarios and solid moral ground on which they stood. Well, that's what I told my mom, but the truth is they would build cool kit with laser beams and rockets out of stuff they found in a barn to dominate even the smartest bad guys and generally kick ass with unprecedented style!
This show was so much fun, and to me, possessed a winning formula that has been hard to duplicate. I often wonder about the quality of remakes from this genre (80's tv) and pray the studios and filmmakers don't mess it up. I'm sure many feel the same. The A-Team remake premieres in the realm of legends like Clash of the Titans, He-Man & the Masters of the Universe, along with the other cartoon remakes like GI Joe, X Men, Spiderman, Batman, etc.
Well, after seeing the trailers and who they chose to cast the love-able group of misfit commandos, I can honestly say, I'm just as excited to see this rebirth as I was running home from the school bus stop those many years ago. Enjoy the trailer and I'll see you at the movies.
