I love it when a mash-up comes together!
“A Team of the Galaxy” is the latest mash-up video from Darth Blender. This time the YouTuber re-images Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy as The A-Team, based on the characters from the NBC television series that aired from 1983 to 1987 (98 episodes).

Aside from both teams escaping prison, there similarities between several of the characters. Rocket and Lieutenant Colonel John “Hannibal” Smith (George Peppard) have a knack for coming up with elaborate plans. Star-Lord and Lieutenant Templeton “Face” Peck (Dirk Benedict) enjoy using their charming personalities and good looks to their advantage. Drax and B.A. Baracus (Mr. T) are the muscle.
And while Groot has no equal, the video tries to connect Gamora and Murdock (Dwight Schultz); although, i don’t see the connection.
An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfitsโRocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate standโwith the galaxy’s fate in the balance.
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, which first appeared in comic books in Marvel Super-Heroes, Issue #18 (Jan. 1969), stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel as Groot, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Lee Pace, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, with John C.
