I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before on the blog or not, so here goes.
I am a HUGE A-Team fan. Seriously. It’s my favorite show ever. I love it more than Alias, more than Chuck, more than just about anything else (with the possible exception of the James Bond movies). I have all the DVDs, and I even made Wheezley buy me an A-Team T-shirt for my birthday one year.
So my inner fangirl squealed with delight over the weekend when I found the trailer for the movie over at Entertainment Weekly.
Yeah, there’s a lot of cheesy dialogue in the trailer and what looks like some really implausible action/CGI. But you know what? That’s what made the TV show so great — it was just cheesy fun. And it looks like the movie is in that same vein. (One day, I’m totally going to do a blog post about how everything I know about writing books I learned from The A-Team.)
Plus, it’s got a pretty cool cast — Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Sharlto Copley, and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson all look the part. (Although I do not remember Bradley Cooper having abs like that on Alias, but hey, I’m not complaining.) And the van! The van’s in the movie!
I know what I’ll be doing on June 11. 😉
How about you guys?Am I alone in my A-Team love? Which cheesy ’80s shows do you love? Share in the comments.
