I know we've already established that Battleship looks well, idiotic, but I can't help NOT acknowledging the incredible visual effects in this behind-the-scenes footage.
Let's just overlook the concept for a minute to appreciate the world we live in where stuff like this can happen on screen. Thanks... Universe?





























I'm glad that the audio of the Transformers has been able to transfer to this. They always looked like a cluster fuck, but at least they sounded cool.
Also, how do you get Liam Neeson to be in your movie, and then kill him off before anything happens? It seems pretty crazy to me.
I have to give them props for featuring aliens who actually wear armour. Too many films have aliens that can construct ridiculously complex devices, but run around naked.
You had me at Rihanna...you had me at Rihanna

Yeah, I feel he should have gone down in a blaze of glory as Taylor Kitsch's character looks on. Though maybe that happens.

Stupid of me to complain about a "Battleship" movie, but how the fuck did Rihanna's dad know about these things? Always bothered me. They better explain in the movie.
I almost convinced myself to torrent this when it comes out. Then Rihanna had to go and pretend she's an actress.

Well said, matey
I know this is gonna make at least a few hundred mil, so the studio won't realize, but the more I see about this movie the more it seems like people would actually be getting pumped if it just wasn't called "Battleship". Sometimes, brand recognition just turns your original product into a fucking joke.
I wish Liam Neeson was the main character, instead of just the mentor who gets killed off. I'd pay to see Liam Neeson as a naval commander take on aliens. Actually, I'd pay to see Liam Neeson fight anything.

You are asking too much of the movie. The movie just wants you to sit back and watch things blow up. Possibly Rihanna in tight clothing too, though evidently no for her acting ability.
@gangly: completely agree while i wouldn't say I'm actively waiting for this if it didn't have the battleship name I'd definitely be more excited
@SpunkyJunky: Yeah, I know. I've just seen trailers for this every week I go to the theater and that line always bothers me. "My dad say they come... He say...etc." Why didn't your dad tell anyone else except his hot daughter?
Liam Neeson dies? NOOOOOOOOO!!!!.........WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!
