Maybe its just me but I thought ATEAM was a damn fine summer actioner. I'm at a loss as to why it really didn't do more.

Posted by: horlicks on Jun 13, 13:46 in response to damenchipguy's post clone = double post? :) I have read little about this...

Guess I am the target audience though. Watched it with the wife yesterday and thought it was a solid B. Came home and drove the babysitter home who is 16. She asked what we watched, told her A-Team and she had no clue about the original series. *facepalm* Damn i'm old.

I read the KFKID report, does anybody have an opinion on ATEAM? Will the studio think 28M for W/E a success? {nm} damenchipguy Jun 13, 13:28

you tell me. budget > $100mil. extremely limited potential. {nm} secretstalker clone Jun 13, 13:36

clone = double post? :) I have read little about this movie since I got back home today KFKID is the story. Why damenchipguy Jun 13, 13:41

Probably the audience being limited to guys over a certain age. {nm} secretstalker Jun 13, 13:51

Right there with you. I never watched the show that much, but I knew about it and all. And I gave the movie a soild B as well. Hooray360 Jun 13, 14:11

Thank you all for your opinions, sounds like the WOM is mixed. I thought it looked cool will still catch it in theatre. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 14, 10:00

Jon Hamm shoudl have played Hannibal Smith. Neeson is annoying with his Irish accent. {nm} JimmyGatts Jun 13, 20:52

its a US TV show adaptation so that limits its foreign gross and you have the world cup on top of that. {nm} Moviesnob Jun 13, 14:03

A-Team is HUGE in Europe! And here it starts after the World Cup, in August {nm} Buesi Jun 13, 14:11

REALLY? I'm surprised to hear that. It's opened in some markets internationally. {nm} Moviesnob Jun 13, 14:28

it will need major bucks to get out of its hole {nm} Moviesnob Jun 13, 14:28

Indeed. Studios generally get 10% - 20% in their pockets from successful international runs of this type. {nm} horlicks Jun 13, 14:44

if this is true, the Jessica Biel casting was a misstep IMO. They should have gone international. {nm} Moviesnob Jun 13, 14:41
