I wonder if DS, DB and/or Mr. T will have cameos. If I were them I'd sit out as a kind of protest move for the non-campy A-Team movie.

SJC has said he would like them in it. Dirk has said that SJC would like them to be in it, but Dirk has said that he doesn't really like the script...and Mr. T has said that he doesn't want to be in it if he is not B.A.

Just like Tom Selleck saying he won't do a cheesy cameo if Magnum P.I. ever gets to be a movie.

I agree....I don't want them doing cameos if the movie is so far away from the spirit of the show.

Great, now The Game is rumored to be playing B.A. Seriously, I doubt the people in Hollywood have any brains. Why do they feel the need to cast a rapper in this part? Why? Are there no other buff black actors in Hollywood? I know there are. Mr. T had his won style, they made the role to fit him. I dread to see The Game or Tyrese in the movie talking all ghetto-ish, which Mr. T never did.

IF this is true, it sounds like they are wanting to have the main MP chasing the team be a female. That in and of itself doesn't upset me nearly as much as all the other things I think they will do to ruin the movie, namely not making it in the same spirit as the TV series.

*gasp, sputter, cough* OK...they cut up Col. Decker and Frankie Santana, pushed Puree, and Starbucked the result. Ugh. I'm liking this movie less and less every day, and I haven't even seen a preview yet!

I guess producers still don't have the balls to keep it a mans-show with an all-male cast.
Same thing happened to Star Trek with the advertisement. We had Captain Kirk, Spock and... UHURA on the poster. UHURA?! She had like 3 lines per episode on the show and not enough in the movie to warrant her head on the poster. It should be like it always has been; Kirk, Spock & McCoy.

Good point, Aquamaniac. One thing the producers, writers, SJC, whomever is behind this train wreck seem to keep overlooking: We, the hardcore nutburger fans, LIKE The A-Team as it is. We don't want any changes, we don't want a politically correct message, we don't want changes in the format to appease whatever the demographic of the month is. End of story. Not to mention that for all the show's so-called sexism, almost all the female fans I've spoken to have no problem with it! Nor do they want a "Rambina" female character added in just because. I can understand an Amy and/or Tawnia substitute, that's fine...because they were originally part of the show. This person seems to have been created in a focus group petri dish somewhere.

They probably figure they will never please the hardcore fans anyway, so they may as well play to the lowest common denominator!

Does that link means what I think it means? No Murdock?

This thing is sinking faster than stock for the Titanic. (Maybe they could get Celine Dion to sing a power ballad for the end credits?) If Murdock's character isn't in the movie, I refuse to see it.

I think we all will, Miz. I guess they couldn't get Jim Carrey to play him and rather than finding another talent, they scratched his character?

I'm not too keen on Jim Carrey as Murdock, even though that seems to be the most popular choice. I know he's done more subtle roles (THE TRUMAN SHOW and MAN ON THE MOON leap to mind,) but for the most part I see him as too over-the-top for Murdock. There is a certain subtlety to the character, and while DS has a "rubber face" to some degree, I don't see as much similarity as, say, with Robert Downey, Jr. or maybe Jason Lee. They are my two leading candidates for the role, but as I said... In the end, there is only one. ;D
