Saw a blurb on Autoblog about the HUMMER HX concept being in a G.I. Joe deal. Thought they were talking about toys. Boy was I wrong!

Whoa. It's like Hollywood is systematically butchering my childhood.

    I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS!!!!! One thing always amazed me about the cartoon: all those laser beams flying across the screen and nobody ever got killed.

    No what amazed me is how much running they all did towards each other but they never seemed to get anywhere.

    I wonder how big the treadmills will have to be to work that effect into the live action?

    I was thinking something similar when I saw the title of this post pop up. Just read today that the guy who did Superbad is starting production on an
    A-Team movie soon. Another one that could really head south fast.

    Who needs a live-action movie when we have the PSA collection?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I was completely hopped up about the A team movie until I found out that B.A. Baracus was not going to be in the movie. He was being replaced by a female character played by L'il Kim!!!!!:eek:

    One thing about the A-Team - why did B.A. always drink the milk? He must have known that it was a mickey and that they were going to fly, yet he always got mad and threatened to kick Murdock's ****.

    Dude, If you only have 1 point about the A-Team not being realistic, get help now. They turned vacuum cleaners into helicoters in every show.

    Yeah, they were better than MacGyver!


    Then again, MacGyver only needed a potato, a tin pie plate, a pencil, a paper clip and a styrofoam cup to build a nuclear power plant!

    One of my favorite GIJ issue was a dogfight between the F14 and the A10. I can't remember either pilot's names. I hope we see both of them and I wonder if they will stick with the retired F14 or update to a modern fighter.

    Poor Ray Park, he never gets to play a role where people can see his face. He was the headless horesman in Sleepy Hollow also.
