Car Crash? Mid-Coitus? Or Eating Dinner? You Decide

A few days ago, new trailers were released for both The A-Team and Salt, both of which we neglected to cover. In the case of The A-Team trailer, it’s likely because each attempt to watch it rendered us completely brain dead. The new trailer does offer a lot of new material, but in my mind, it only cements how completely dumbfucked it looks. With the exception of maybe Sharlito Copley, everyone in this movie is incredibly miscast, from Liam Neeson down to Patrick Wilson and especially Bradley Cooper. But then again, anyone that’s not the original cast feels a little miscast.

It’s clear that Joe Carnahan is going for broke on the over-the-top preposterous action comedy; any notion that he’d try to gritty this up is completely out the door.

Seriously: Bradley Cooper needs to step the fuck out of this movie.



The other new trailer is for Angelina Jolie’s Salt. The first one was a pretty good introduction to the film, and was intriguing enough to get my attention. But this one recycles all the good bits from the first trailer and adds some contextual stuff that …. oh crap, I fell asleep again. Either Angelina is steel-toeing someone with her boot, or I drift off. Needs more bad-assitude, less “all hell’s about to break loose.”

Do people think that making a trailer and having the phrase "there's something else going on here" helps sell that you aren't seeing everything in the trailer? Because I am not so easily fooled, Hollywood.

I don't know anything about the original A-Team series, my only experience was that Family Guy episode. Still, that looks like complete crap.

I'm mildly excited for Salt, mildly excited.

I counted 2 stereotypical "hell yeah, from the black guy" just in the A-Team trailer. I wonder how many more they put in the movie..Lame.

Up yours!

I'll have a bag of weed and a 12 pack in the back of the Mk. 2 for this one.

That trailer for the A-Team looked shitballs full on shotgun-to-the-face with a glass of crazy retarded, and Sharlto looks like he's gonna make a good Murdock, and it has the un-unlikeable Rampage.

Who's coming with me?

A-Team looks like fun.

Salt looks fucking retarded. I repeat...the day I see a woman with legs and arms the size of Jolie's kicking the shit out of guys and using every weapon known to man is the day I will let that woman kick my ass. Seriously...she doesn't even look like she could hold herself up, let alone a shotgun.

I think I've ever saw her on ☆☆☆ diamondkissing.com☆☆☆☆ It's a place for romancing with the rich & celeb….

You know, it would be one thing if the SpamBot was actually interesting. Just reword it and change it up a bit.

I think I've even seen her on this website. The name of it is

One day Jolie is going to gradually disappear and leave nothing behind but her disembodied lips. She's the Cheshire Cat of actresses.

a-team, oh yeah. my inner 13 year old just squirmed with excitement

I'm feelin the A-team love. I mean, he's shooting a fucking airplane from a tank that's parachuting from a another airplane that just blew up. Does it really get any better than that?

"Sharlito" Copley? Was he in Sharlito's Way with Pacino and Sean Penn?

It's "Sharlto".

Angelina's movie looks like basically a rehash of "Bourne" movies plus more explodey stuff. Whatever. I like bad-ass Jolie. And yeah, she needs to eat some sammiches. Maybe those kids are sucking the life out of her.

She does not look good with blonde hair.
