In 1972..

Excitement. Lots. (I’m resisting the urge to get up and make machine gun noises).

This pic is already all over the web – and quite rightly. Looks badass. The casting of Bradley Cooper as Templeton Peck is inspired and whilst I was a touch dubious about Liam Neeson as Hannibal, this sneak preview poster kind of reassures my doubts.

Although I can’t seem to find any sneak preview marketing gimmicks going on anywhere, I’m hoping that in the run up to Christmas and very early in the new year (this is due out Summer 2010) we’re going to start seeing a whole host of tantalising morsels viral their way around the net. The amount of nostalgia the A-Team carries, is massive and a great audience to tap into –  as long as the ideas are right. I’d like to see something along the lines of http://www.friendsofharveydent.org/  -  a great example of innovative film marketing in an online age..

..lets keep Snickers out of it though.

Clip.
