And how do you know that it won't do the series justice?? Have you seen it already? Who wants to see Mr. T's old ass trying to intimidate a bad guy 40 years his junior?
It would be different if they were starting the SHOW/SERIES again - but a 1 shot movie - I say keep it new and refreshing is my opinion.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
A team of old guys trying to intimidate the young'uns would probably be more new/refreshing than a team of young schmucks re-hashing bad jokes from the early '80's.
Mr. T with arthritis, Hannibal trying to give up cigars, Face losing his youthful looks, etc etc there are a lot of new ways they could go with the original cast.
The new cast... it will just be like hearing someone tell a joke they heard from someone else.
Hannibal is dead FYI he died a long time ago.Originally Posted by Total_Blender

Sounds to me like you wanted skeleteons of their former selves to be the brunt of their own jokes just for a nostalgic moment. How much sense does that make for a movie - reminds me or 60 year old Sly in the Rambo movie - we get it Sly - you're a bad mother fucker - but sit the fuck down.

But every1 is entitled to their own view about it. As I said - guys who remem the show will def miss certain things... but the movie has a chance to get some new/young eyes on it... they will have a much more neutral view and give the analysis a much more fair look. What a shame that some1 who has never seen the series will give it a better chance than some1 who actually is a fan of the original. Sounds to me like it should be the other way around.

yeah i mean i dont know whats worse, a remake , or putting the same old ass people in a newer movie.
ROCKY BALBOA and RAMBO were fucking HORRIBLE movies.
But so was INDIANA JONES 4
it just doesnt work, glory days are just that, glory days

Put it this way - this is for the people who think the orig cast should be there.
Picture a movie about Arnold Schwarzenegger winning his 1st Mr. Olympia (1970) --- FUCK YEAH!!!! Let's say John Cena is gonna play Arnold - awesome.
Now Cena pulls out of the movie do to a hamstring injury and then the REAL Arnold says "fuck, I gotta nother movie in me - some1 toss me some Speedos."
wait...
wait for .....
wait for it.....

I actually think they did Rambo the right way. The portrayed him as old and kinda washed up.
And the editing in that new Rambo movie was the best I've ever seen in any action movie ever. It goes for the jugular and does not let go.
Hopefully this A-Team business will fail and be over with soon. Then the "unrated bonus super ImportAtlanta edition" or whatever will come out on DVD and be forgotten about and those of us who enjoy the original series can get on with our lives.
