01.28.09 THE A-TEAM MOVIE IS BACK ON
The original A-Team van (since converted into a rapemobile)
I’ll give you two reasons making The A-Team into a movie is a horrible idea: Knight and Rider. Nonetheless, the project is going forward, with Joe Carnahan (Smokin’ Aces) replacing John Singleton as director, and Ridley and Tony Scott on to co-produce.
Fox is betting this is the right combination, setting a June 11, 2010, release date for the feature, which is written by Skip Woods [who's written Swordfish and Hitman].
Carnahan seems like an ideal candidate for “A-Team,” which told the adventures of a group of US Army Special Forces who are on the run for a crime they didn’t commit. The team included Hannibal, the leader whose favorite line was “I love it when plan comes together; Face, a ladies man; Howling Mad Murdock, an unstable pilot; and B.A. Baracus, the surly muscle (B.A. stands for “Bad Attitude”). [THR]
Yes, sounds like it’s all coming together. Now the only question is who’ll replace Mr. T: Vin Diesel or Nick Cannon.

THE A-TEAM MOVIE IS BACK ON
They should cast an albino in the Mr. T role and make his nipples lactate when he gets scared of flying and then Hannibal can feed him his own breast milk to make him pass out.
They wanted to cast Gerald Posner, but they would have to have changed the character’s name to Too-Much-Face.
I’m holding out for a Simon & Simon remake starring Larry The Cable Guy and Justin Timberlake.
The only way I’d be interested in seeing this is if Airwolf was the bad guy.
I’m looking forward to The P Team starring R. Kelly and Mark Wahlberg.
According to something I just made up, the studio is pushing for Kimbo Slice to take over the roll of BA Baracus, and has infact been pushing for an all MMA cast. Except for the roll of Hannibal which will of course be going to Anthony Hopkins. Fred Durst has been hired to score the film.
Ol’ CCH has a movie idea about a ‘Nam vet who comments on blogs and then drives around the country in his Winnybango, rescuing lonely vaginas.
Updated characters will include: PTSD Murdock and A.G. Baracus (A.G. stands for “Abu Ghraib”).
I have two words for the casting of Mr. T.
Kimbo. Slice.
God dammit i gotta start reading these comments before posting one.
By “rescuing” do you mean “BTKing”? Cause that would be cool.
Why not keep Mr. T? He’s still convincing.

So I guess this is probably a bad time for me to be shopping around the script I wrote called The C- Team. It’s pretty much the same story, but replace “Special Forces” with “Junior College.”
I could totally see Ice Cube killing the punanny in the back of the rape van.
I had a rapemobile in my crib as a baby.

Can they bring in some Hardcastle and Mcormick, BJ and the Bear and maybe a little Magnum to round out the attractive but actually homeless group?
Pauly…BAHAHAHAHA
Let’s see, how can they urbanize this a little? You know, get a little bass for our Face?
I got it: Flavor Flav as Mr. T, boy-ee!
I would be the B.A. Baracus of the A2M Team.
This just in, BrocknRoll can now confirm that Eliza Dushku has been approached to play Detective Hannah Bell Smith, a beautiful LA cop who just happens to also be Hannibal’s daughter. Sources say that the Hannah character is a no nonsense ass kickin chick whose tough exterior is no match for the charm of a certain member of the team. After she is is kidnapped, Hannibal and the A-Team will stop at nothing to save her, even if it means infiltrating a dangerous underground fight club called the Playground.
That van is not accurate.
The top half from the red stripe up is gray.

You know what would be ironic? What if, in the new version, BA Baracus is working as an air marshal?
I need accuracy in my life like I need whisky right now.
If this movie is successful, we’re repainting the BTK Van.
