What do you think? I know the original wasn't exactly high art but this looks like one for the toilet. It's a shame because I think Bradley Cooper makes a good face... but BA is rubbish and why is Hannibal Irish?

I feel bad that I think the trailer looks like fun. Maybe its the Movie Trailer Guy doing the classic intro voiceover...

I wonder if it will contain alot of scenes where alot of bullets get fired, but no one gets hit?
And some scenes where a vehicle does a stunt, gets completely wrecked, then quickly cuts to a perfectly intact vehicle driving off.
I've watched it a couple more times and I'm willing to wait and see... maybe it will be a good, fun action film. Still not sure about Neeson as Hannibal though, as much as I like him as an actor.

I'm also not sure how then can find someone to replace Mr. T as BA, and I'm concerned as well about Howling Mad Murdock. I would think it would be very difficult to fill Dwight Schultz's shoes.
The show was popcorn meaningless fun that never aspired to be any more.
If the movie can do that, it will be fun.
If it can do that and not feel like a parody, it will be really good.
If it can do that and also manage to be even a bit more compelling plot/character wise, it might be great.
BUT...
If it tries to be really compelling plot/character wise, it will totally miss the point.
I just hope they don't shit all over another one of my child hood memories. The trailer does give a little hope that I had not yet had for this movie though.
AND they damn well better have a montage with the music playing. Where the guys are decking out an RV to be a tank!

Agree. I always felt that Jim Carrey would be a great Murdoch if he'd relax on the shtick a little. Say a "Jim Carrey Light".
hmm, yes. Jim Carrey would be a intriguing choice for Murdoch. Now, I truly hope they do to Face what they did to Dirk Benedict's other character.
double post, sorry.
80's network shows like this were right in my wheelhouse. So how is it that I've never seen a full episode?

Man, I dunno, this show was a staple in my house back in the 80's. My brother and I even had A-Team dolls, he had Murdoch and I had Mr.T!!! Yeah!! I had the A-Team van and my brother had the chopper. Groovy.
I think they should get Katee Sackoff to play Faceman...

I've always thought that too.
I wonder if any of the original cast will have cameos. That would be cool. Not OTT cameos like in Starsky and Hutch, just bit parts.

Yep, Dwight Schultz and Dirk Benedict have confirmed cameos.
Mr. T refused.

MR.T turned down a cameo in Rocky Balboa too.
Oh well, there is still hope that he will soften a bit and do a cameo in the "D.C. Cab" remake. HA!

I don't know about the US but he's the face of Snickers over here in England (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NySN_plfiNI) and he's also on a WOW commercial, so he is kinda busy... looking forward to seeing the cameos from Benedict and Schultz though.
