"Battleship: The Movie" or "Yes, this is a real thing"

By Milton Bradley. And Liam Neeson.

Quick summary for those of you not in a position to see the trailer:

The main character (a hot-blooded navy prodigy) is dating the daughter of Liam Neeson (no-nonsense admiral). Some shit goes down, main character gets CHEWED OUT, and then right before he gets fired or something, they find - oh shit - ALIENS.

The humans can only shoot one target at a time because, y'know, alien shields. The alien projectiles are colored pegs. I shit you not.

Rihanna's gonna be in it too apparently.

MOVIE OF THE YEAR

As many of my friends would say, "I'd sink my battleship into that."

You should get new friends.

They're all I got! Plus, you can't stop being friends with your teammates. That would make the relay races very awkward.

The more I think about just how utterly ridiculous this movie is, the more excited I get about it.

Like it seems to be trying too hard to be one of those "So bad it's good" movies, but at the same time the attempt at trying too hard is more hialrious than anything else.

I'm pretty sure I made a post about how such a movie would go a long time ago.
If they stole my idea I'm gonna have to press charges.

Still prefer the Colbert version.

Huh.

Maybe there's hope for that Minesweeper movie after all.

Pretty sure that is already one of his titles.
