Film School Rejects: Peter Berg Wants To Sink Your ‘Battleship’

  • daviedave47 · 6 months ago
    Well..being in the Navy, and having served in the fleet (not to mention a life-long fascination with Naval shipbuilding...and yes...even the "Battleship" game...)...I am whole-heartedly FOR this project. Of course...having said that...I would like it to be a GOOD movie, so I think some clever brain-storming sessions better be taking place.

    I would much rather them make something new (like this!), and run the risk of it failing, as opposed to ruining something that is already a great classic by "re-imagining" it (i.e. "Clue"). Perhaps as an alternative they can try "Candyland" or "Boggle." Or maybe "Jenga" or "Mousetrap."

    I'm with you Rob. There's no connection at all. Are they fighting giant floating pegs? I have studied WW2 WW1 naval history and if there going to do a movie about naval warfare there's enough content out there to make a movie that honors the soldiers that fought in those wars.

    Why not remake the movie Midway or Hunt for the Bismark?

    Perhaps a naval war game that turns deadly?
