Default Battleship

this is supposed to be based on the board game? dont remember aliens in the board game. looks like battle LA at sea, must have a fair budget thought as the release date is a way off, and has liam neeson.

I didn't make the Battleship game connection until the shot in the trailer of the alien ship firing 4 yellow peg like things into the side of the battleship.
Now I'll be expecting Liam Neeson to yell "You sank my Battleship" LOL

Must admit this trailer sold the film to me immediately. I expect it'll be terrible, so if it isn't it'll be a pleasant surprise

I liked the trailer, but that alien ship is the bomb. Love that design.

I like the alien ship design... but I'm not likely to watch it....movies based on games have been notoriously bad. Even some of the video game movies have been lame. I don't need a nostalgic childhood memory overrun by a motion picture just becasue a screen writer could come up with a better idea....

Okay, um. Former US Navy Surface Warfare Officer here.

It looks terrible.

Hmm, started watching it thinking, I *sure* don't remember Battleship being played *that* way! Talk about a reboot!

I just hope that someone, at some point in the movie says "You sunk my battleship!"

There's a film called Real Steel coming out very shortly, which is basically just Knock 'em Sock 'em Robots.

Went to see this last night. I personally thought it was good. The effects where very good. The ships and battles great. It was a little light on story etc. It seemed to me to be a cross between independance day and Pearl Harbour. Good though

Looking forward to a couple hours of eye-candy thanks for the positive report on the FX and action hehe.

Its being released on the 18th here in the Chicago area, and since Iron Sky's US release has been delayed I need a VFX fix to tide me over!

Actually Real Steal had nothing to do Rock'm Sock'm robots. It's based on an old Twilight Zone episode written by Richard Matheson.
