There is no plan B, YAY!

Of all the movies coming out this year, I most want to see "The A-Team". TAT was my first online fandom and I think I've written the most fic for it. It also has the most WIPs including my biggest unfinished story, Blackbird.

What really draws me into this movie is that the characters feel right. Despite being played by different actors, the characters are all very true to who they were -- or in BA's case who they should have been had the characters actually been allowed to be something other than an icon.

I also love that the trailer was obviously well thought out and excellently cut together. It mixes the drama with the comedy and uses the theme song to maximum effect.

I will also admit to my biggest "Glee-factor" for this film: Crossovers. With the original Team set in the 80s the crossover potential was limited. I've seen some stories that make it work, but with this movie the possibilities are unlimited.

ETA: Why, oh why, don't I have an A-Team icon?

i loved the a team growing up, it was just the best thing ever, i don't have the dvds yet as i never quite got around to that but i do have the pilot on video still.

i'm also looking forward to the film - i hope they keep to the slightly cheesy ethic of the show, it'd be such a shame to make it too actiony at the expense of humour :)

love the trailer too :D
