Wow, they're just as poor shots as the real A-Team. I should play against these guys to get my multiplayer achievements.

Honestly, i wasn't impressed. they could have had WAY better shots. the GoW one was the best. and the last shot of that one was unforgettable.
5/10.

Eddy, I am one of the creators of the vid, and thus am clearly biased. That said, I have to disagree with your comment. The GOW one relied completely on cinematics for all their shots and did not stay true to the original intro. We wrote an actual treatment (and script) for our video and recreated everything shot-for-shot from the original. In addition, we recorded new dialog and sound effects for our video (while the GOW one did not).
Also, you didn't think the grunt tea-bagging was "unforgettable"? :-P

@David
I see where you're coming from, but i think that it could've had more BANG or something. there were scenes that contained those like the brute chopper raging through some explosion, but ultimately i felt like you could've done more. especially with the last shot. who knows, maybe the ending cinematic of single player would have made it a pretty good ending.
and yes the teabagging was a highlight from the video :D

Why does there have to be a minute of credits after the video? Put that stuff in the info section.

That was enjoyable and well pulled off. I'm impressed you wrote a treatment etc. kickin' it professional stylee.
Personally my favourite bit was the chief popping out of the bushes, but then I'm weird like that.
It's not perfect mind, the last couple of scenes lacked any real focus or content and the credits (being a 3rd of the whole video) where a little long but other than that this was well put together. congrats.

Andy, thanks for your comment! I agree about the last couple of scenes not being super amazing, but that is really more of a problem with the original intro and something we had to deal with. I think the lesson here may be to stick to the original, but stray from it when necessary (or funny).
Also, about the credits: We recorded the footage you see in the background early on and thought it was so hilarious it just had to go in the video somewhere. Also, while the video is very short, a lot of people did put a lot of work into making it, and We really wanted to recognize this.

So I see. That was sheer coincidence about the beginning shot, as we had not seen your video beforehand. Also, the concept behind our video was that the four guys from co-op were the A-Team, which you didn't appear to be going after. We've had this idea for a long time (like when Halo 3 first came out), it just took a while to get everything together and actually make the thing.
