At least they can't screw up the plot like in Transformers. I can't look at this and say that it shit all over the original. So without that I could enjoy this.
Plus no Shia LaBeouf is always good.
Just ruined it, Liam Neeson dies because hes the captain and it they are all like oh boy hes dead in the fucking trailer.
Looks like a good movie to go watch with mah mates and just enjoy. Looks like good fun.

Last time we used Battleships was in the Gulf War. We were going to continue to use the Wisconsin and Iowa but the cost to modernize them was too great. The Wisconsin was removed from the naval vessel registry in 2006. They're probably in mothball right now (well, Wisconsin is a museum and Missouri is docked in Hawaii) and if for whatever reason we needed to use them, we probably could. Though it would be pointless considering we already have far greater firepower in ready service.

Or they could have made it a historical movie.

With aliens.
It's like they recycled both the visuals and audio of Transformers.

You sunk my battleship.
Also that kids alfalfa.
[QUOTE=OvB;33669061]With aliens.[/QUOTE]
I would have to admit that would make a more interesting movie.
Should of had it take place in 1946 or post WW2
I guess they need a battleship in the movie though since the movie is called "Battleship" after all.
Please Hollywood. For once.
[B]Let the aliens win[/B]
I don't even understand what was going on, the aliens do that field thing to do a battleship match, but also are attacking other cities, etc in the meanwhile?
Why can't this be either:
A. A cold war gone hot movie scenario
B. A WW2 era movie about battleships fighting against other ships
C. A movie about Battleship the game

Why? Every single movie that I've seen with bad guys/aliens winning ends up with a crappy ending.

Same goes for the recent movies where humans win.
Like Battle L.A
Dat CG, i love CG.

Just face it, the Aliens aren't going to win.

I hope that they do. So it can become a franchise.

If some alien species manages to travel to Earth it's pretty obvious they'll be more technically advanced than us. Go watch Avatar if you want us to look like the more badass guys (even if we still lose, which is bulllshit)
I spent half of the trailer trying to work out whether it was a joke like the collegehumor Minesweeper movie trailer

Honestly I prefer the Halo style Alien vs Human war, it's more of a conventional war rather than "Oh jesus death rays and everything the aliens have are indestructible and unfeasible by all logical standpoints"
wait is this actually supposed to be related to that hasbro battleships game? they managed to turn that into a movie about aliens?
I really want to attend one of those meetings where they pitch all these ideas

We'll know the humans suddenly find some weakness and then destroy them

Naw, I just hate how they always win WHILE being the underdogs.
This looks like awesome fun though.
[QUOTE=minilandstan;33666230]Now make a movie about Candy land[/QUOTE]
"On February 5, 2009, Universal Pictures announced plans to film a movie based on the Candy Land board game. Etan Cohen, a writer for comedies Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa and Tropic Thunder, was hired to write the screenplay. Kevin Lima, who directed Enchanted, was set to direct. However, in 2011, a new screenwriting team was designated, composed of Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger. They said, 'We don't see it as a movie based on a board game, although it has characters from that world and takes the idea of people finding themselves in a world that happens to be made entirely of candy where there are huge battles going on. We are going for real comedy, real action, and real emotions at stake.'"
IN A LAND OF TYRANNY. EVIL LURKS AROUND EVERY CORNER. AND THE ONLY ONE WHO CANE SAVE THE LAND. IS. SWEET.
*explosion*
"LIKE TAKEN CANDY FROM A BABY"
trailer.
Looks like a potential so bad it's good.
I can't wait until Candyland comes out an it's about aliens.
"from the hasbro company that brought you transformers"
that part made me think it was a parody
