I was shocked how good the A-Team trailer actually looks.
I’ve also been told that Brad Pitt is being recruited for the Sherlock Holmes sequel.

I’m feeling VERY hesitant about Ghostbusters 3
I’d like for Peter Saarsgaard to play Green Lantern’s villain, he is such a diversified actor.
As if “Source Code” wasn’t high enough on my anticpated list already because of Duncan Jones, I’m now officially stoked with the addition of Farminga.
And I’m still trying to think over the A-Team trailer. I caught it before “Book of Eli” last night, and the whole flying tank thing made me think of the beginning of Charlie’s Angels(Full Throttle?)….and that is not by any means a compliment.
I’ve got an idea for Michael Bay, how about less actors in Transformers 3. Oh, even better, how about not butchering one of my childhood favorites again. Why doesn’t the guy do what he wants to, make a 30 minute explosion and charge us 10 bucks to see it!
It is so strange that they are making the A-Team into a movie…its like they have run out of all ideas and are now desperate to use anything!
