Battleship

Battleship opened in Australia on Thursday, saw it tonite at the Drive In! It was big, dumb, got stupdier as the film went on! Plot holes so big that even the cast knew they where there! Parts of it lacked well anything, at the start it was unsure what it wanted to be, anti war, pro war, anti plot, pro plot. The most effective part was the Battleship moment towards the end of the film. Stupid Dumb and a few moments of fun!

Has Liam Neeson officially become Nicolas Cage 2.0? It seems like an endless string of one bad movie after another.

One would think so, I saw him in wrath early in the day. Liam is only in the start and end of the film. And that is not a spoiler!

I laughed out loud at the preview. I can endure stupid movies- but stupid movies based on stupid board games?

Please tell me they have the line; "You sunk my Battleship!"

Can't wait for "Shoots and Ladders" the Movie! Or "Candyland".

I don't remember if that line was in the film! But don't worry the film is full of stupid lines.

I think it's Chutes and not Shoots...

as for Candyland the movie... i was kinda interested in seeing how that would be done... but then they cast Adam Sandler and now I have zero interest in it

No, Adam Sandler is starring in "Operation."

There IS a Monopoly movie in the works, I believe.

Well, we did have Clue and that was fun, at least (with that dynamite cast). But since the announcement of this film, there was nothing about it that made me want to see it. The previews only solidified my decision. Zero interest.

There is a Monopoly movie in development but it has been back-burnered.

Candyland is indeed moving forward. As is Ouija Board.

I wish I was making this up.

Battleship looks utterly preposterous. I can't wait.

I think Jumanji was also a decent movie.

Nah, not well known enough.

They would need a huge star like Robin Williams or someone to pull that off.

Wait, Quija Board the Movie? Didn't we already have that with The Exorcist? Mr Howdy anyone?

Perhaps Ouiji Board will be the latest "reboot" of The Exorcist. You know, same story but TOTALLY DIFFERENT this time around. Darker and grittier, which always means "better".

actually Calvin... there is also a Snakes and Ladders... i have the magnetic travel game version... and it's Snakes... not Chutes... so you are correct!

Snakes and Ladders is the British version, I believe.

Wait you climb a ladder and slide down a snake? Oooooooooooo! I wanna see that movie!

Snakes and Ladders is what we played in Australia when we where kids.
