Sep 21 2009New 'A-Team' Van Looks Like Old 'A-Team' Van
This first look at the A-Team van has revealed that the new vehicle design looks nearly identical to the original, breaking the fan-angering, '80s TV show car-changing standard set up by Transformers. Rednecks who have modified their old vans in homage to the series can breathe a sigh of relief: your children will still understand the cultural relevancy of your re-painted 1983 GMC Vandura.

Awesome. Sounds like they've at least got off on the right foot. Let's just hope the story isn't crap. Of course it's not like the 80s A-Team was Emmy gold or anything.

The A-Team Van could be a Bugatti Veyron and it still wouldn't make this movie a good idea.

$20 says it gets blown up in the opening sequence giving them an excuse to replace it with next year's hottest new GM minivan.

Hmmm, am I the only person that thought the original A-Team was a bunch of FAIL? It had awful scripts, wooden acting, shonky effects etc. etc. I was target audience at the time it aired in the UK and I still thought it was terrible. How often would BA fall for the "I ain't flying on no plane.... Mmmm sure Hannibal, I'll drink that milk" - tranquiliser trick? Tractor in a barn? Looks like an anti aircraft gun to me!! Please please let this bomb at the box office..... erm, sorry, rant over.

don't get excited people. This is Hollywood. They'll probably have this van for the opening scene where it'll get destroyed requiring them to get an updated van. The new van will be a hybrid with machine guns that can fly and of course will be done completely CG. God I hope I'm wrong but I know I'm not!
