So, after playing magical lion Jesus, a good Nazi and a soviet submarine captain, among other things, Liam Neeson is to be col. Hannibal Smith in The A-Team: link |

There is only one Hannibal Smith and his name is George Peppard |

I heard that Liam Neeson was retiring from hollywood. This is a strange way to do it. I guess some people have to be forced though. |

Also the guy who is playing BA has a much more bad ass name than BA himself does. They should have just run with that. |

I confess that I never watched the original show. I suspect my record will remain intact when this film is released. |

Embiggened -- now there's a word you don't hear every day. Thankfully. |

I believe the chap from "district 9" is going to be Howling Mad Murdock as well. |

Well, that should be craptastic. Pass. |

It's amazing given Hollywood's usual high quality levels of remakes and sequels that this slipped through. Odd. |

Okay, we've had Charlie's Angels, The Dukes of Hazzard, and now The A Team. How long before The 6 Million Dollar Man is made into a movie? Knight Rider? Any other dead horses to flog? I'm happy to pass on the lot, at least until they come onto late night free-to-air TV. And probably not even then. |
| AndrewGPaul | 26 Oct 2009 2:20 a.m. PST |
Well, it's not like Hollywood can make The A-Team any worse than it was originally.  I want to see the van, myself. I wonder, does Mr Neeson have a daughter who wants to go to Harvard or something? Or a big tax bill? |

I'm not sure what one means by retire from Hollywood – He has never lived there. He lives in NYC. I imagine the best thing for him to do after the death of his wife, is to keep as busy as possible. |

[Well, it's not like Hollywood can make The A-Team any worse than it was originally.] True! |

A-TEAM was the best show of the 80s
It was perfect, nothing wrong with it. |

I want to see the van, myself. link Looks the same to me… |

Why don't these guys understand "Don't mess with perfection". The best case for this movie is to make it to B-Team status. |
| Mardaddy | 30 Nov 2009 4:11 p.m. PST |
So are they going to stay true to the TV A-Team and never show anyone actually die? All shooting is at the feet/in the air/at vehicles.
Car flips and explosions where they include a glimpse of the escape of the driver/passengers – the possible casualties barely making their getaway before fatal disaster (good & bad guys both!) |

For myself this is a BAD idea but then i said that when they made Car 54,Starsky and Hutch,The Honeymooners to say but a few BOMBS IMHO. In recent years you had a REAL BOMB Speed Racer now that SUCKED big time. One of the very few which is pretty good was the Addams Family,that one i really like. For me i say if it ain't broke DON'T fix it and most of these movies NEVER should've been made. This is just my two cents but i had to say it. Captain Gideon |
