...who misses the A-Team movie:

The A-Team Countdown Begins (http://tv.yahoo.com/the-a-team/show/28506/news/urn:newsml:tv.eonline.com:20080324:e6f19653_e79148 b4_a4c2_efae133659f1)




John Singleton, who last yelled cut on Four Brothers, will direct; Michael Bandt and Derek Haas, who helped shoot the lights out with 3:10 to Yuma, are writing the screenplay.



As reported, the movie will follow the basic recipe of the 1983-87 TV series: Take four ex-military men; add one war crime they didn't commit; mix in chases, pursuits and more chases.


Given the source material, Singleton has promised an action movie, a serious action movie—"wall to wall kicking ass and talking s--t," as he put it to Collider.com. The film presently is sans actors, A-list, B-team or otherwise, as Singleton himself has made very clear.

New Carradine film relives Kung Fu (http://ukpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5iwpYxTw22_w_uuXOgXEX2stbYnIg)



The former star of 70s cult series Kung Fu is fighting advancing years with a new film that harks back to his "Grasshopper" days.


David Carradine says he does not mind acting his age because at 71, he is getting "this nice little pile of quality movies" in which he plays an assortment of "really tough old men".


His latest project is Son Of The Dragon, showing on the new Hallmark Movie Channel HD.


Carradine plays Bird, mentor to a young thief who pretends to be a prince so he can woo a Chinese princess.
