Battleship: The Movie
 
First of all, it's real.

Second, the budget for the movie is right around $200 million.

Third, it's about alien spaceships trying to sink battleships by LAUNCHING PEGS INTO THEM!!!


I can't wait for this movie to come out. I honestly can't decide if it will be a huge, brainless success, or a box office bomb the likes of which haven't been seen for years. I'm thinking the later on account of the enormous budget and the negative publicity over the fact that it's a stupid idea for a movie.

I wish I could find a picture of the peg thing, but all I get when I search for "Battleship movie" are bland promo shots and Brooklyn Decker's tits.

You didn't mention Brooklyn Decker's tits were covered by bikini. I go searching for battleship movie for nothing.

As for the movie itself, I hope it fails. I hope all movies like it fail, just to teach hollywood to start giving us movies that have story and aren't based off a comic book cover or board game.

If I'm being negative, I'm sorry. Bad movies killed my father. Bad video game hacks however resuscitated him and nursed him back to health.

no boardgame movie's ever gonna beat clue, damn it

EVER

you can see the newest trailer on youtube, you see the pegs punching into the ship for a few seconds. I can't quite decide if it's going to be a boring splosionfest or be boring due to a lack of explosions, seeing as how it looks like a small number of ships are locked in an oceanbound lasersphere

k0k0 Aug 1st, 2011 11:31 PM

I wonder if at the end, it's going to do one of those things where it zooms back out of earth through space, past all the planets, and then out into a new universe where a little kid throws up his arms and shouts "I WIN!"

Fathom Zero Aug 1st, 2011 11:46 PM

I thought the lasersphere was awesome. And the alien ship looked kinda like the Fallen from that one Transformers movie.

:lol

This is so terribly cheesy it makes me laugh just watching this trailer. Wow this is something else.

I'm almost at a loss for words here people!

No one mentions Liam Nielson is in it!? I saw a preview of it before Cowboys and Aliens last night (which I thought was pretty badass) and I have to say, before I realized it was based on the board game it looked kind of awesome.

Maybe we can see another animal cracker jammed in a vagina. :rock

As someone who's done the food sex thing when I was young, I have actually eaten an animal cracker out of a vagina. It's not as appealing as it sounds, and neither is sex + food.

Battleship already had its time to shine on the big screen when Bill & Ted sunk Death's battleship.

CAN'T WAIT FOR CANDYLAND THE MOVIE

Nick Aug 4th, 2011 10:32 AM

This has to be one of the most absurd movies ever thought up. It's almost retarded that someone would green light this. I feel kind of sorry for Liam Nielson.

Here's some screen shots of the pegs from the trailer.

Not me. It's not like he's working for scale because he really wanted to be a part of the Battleship phenomenon.

Fathom Zero Aug 4th, 2011 01:13 PM

I can't wait 'til they explain what the pegs are supposed to do.

Mad Melvin Aug 4th, 2011 01:19 PM

I wonder what he thought when they gave him the script.


Hopefully someone screams "You sank my battleship!" somewhere in the movie.

"Nooooooooo! You sank my battleship! Now it's personal!"

-Hunky lead role

This idea sucks majorly. They keep making these because you cunts keep watching them.

I haven't been to a movie theater since The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. :/

Krythor Aug 5th, 2011 09:29 AM

I'm waiting for tense economic thriller "Monopoly," with contemporary references to a Rupert Murdoch-like villain, foiled by a man with silver shoes and a robot dog.

Womti Aug 5th, 2011 12:16 PM

if there's actually a scene where liam neeson says tha, I 'm getting a t-shirt with that on it.

MailCall Aug 5th, 2011 10:57 PM

We'll have no problem against those aliens if we just keep moving the ships around after their turns.
