Battleship

Yes, the classic board game is also being made into a movie and the first two trailers are out.

Trailer 1


Trailer 2


Amazing how similar it is to another movie based on Hasbro property, makes me wonder just how much influence Hasbro has over the directors ...

I saw the first trailer about 2 months ago, and really did think it was leftover footage from the Transformers films. I might still go see it, but it would have been much better if the movie didn't involve aliens

It would be kinda cool if one of the battle ships transforms into that cancelled ROTF Tidalwave CGI designs.

Yea it does look and sound exactly like Transformers. It actually intrigues me the more I think about it, I might go see this after all.

So are all hasbro based movies gong to be like this from now on? Oh man, now I want to see the Monopoly trailer.

Oh man, I just noticed, this film will seem so silly with it's German title :lol:

After watching the first trailer my thoughts were "Why did they need to do this?" and "Why aliens?"

After the second trailer, now all I can think of is "Why did they need to cut-and-paste the Transformers movies aesthetic onto Battleship?"

'cause it's what Hasbro wants?

Maybe all that Bay hatred is directed at the wrong target after all ...

Indeed. I blame these guys:

I do not blame Michael Bay for crapping all over a huge part of my childhood. He just directed the scripts that were given to him. I blame Orci, Kurtzman, and Krueger, who seem completely incapable of concocting a story that even halfway makes sense.

Yes, Kurtzman and Orci are responsible for the aesthetics in both Transformers and Battleship. That makes perfect sense.
