With sufficient photoshop’ing in place, we now have the official one-sheet for the upcoming A-Team film, from director Joe Carnahan (Smokin’ Aces). The shots of the team vary little from early stills, but it’s fun to see progress on the production all the same.
via slashfilm.com Thanks to our friends at /Film. And thanks to the studio for continuing to market what’s most important about this upcoming film. (bigger version right here…uh huh)
The film ultimately seems an exaggerated actioner, but perhaps the cast can help bouy it above being completely forgettable.
I still think Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is the real wild-card here considering the popularity of the Baracus character (originally played by Mr. T), but Liam Neeson and Bradley Cooper are looking pretty good. And this is definitely a better shot than that earlier spy one. Posted via email from Popscorn
via comingsoon.net That would be (from left to right) Quinton “Rampage” Jackson as Sgt. “B.A.” Baracus, Liam Neeson as John “Hannibal” Smith, Sharlto Copley as Capt. “Howling Mad” Murdock, and Bradley Cooper as Lt.

Exactly how would the world react if suddenly a spaceship carrying crustacean-like aliens took up residence in the airspace above a populated city? Most would probably imagine a battle for species supremacy like that seen in Independence Day. First-time director, Neill Blomkamp, pictures the scenario a bit differently. In District 9, aliens and humans manage to avoid a violent meet-and-greet and come to carve out some semblance of coexistence along the lines of South Africa’s apartheid. Blomkamp, who is originally from South Africa, embraces this theme of pervasive segregation yet applies a sci-fi sensibility that will surely surprise audiences. While the film touches on being overpopulated with irony and allegory, District 9 is one of the best films of its category in years — a stunning, seamless weaving of reality and fiction, complemented by a story-without-borders that will keep you wanting more.
