ah, it looks like a good waste of $200 million. so we have this, we had Clue, how long until the Monopoly movie comes out - starring Jack Black.

Sadly...Monopoly and Candyland are both happening...

A Monopoly movie has actually been in development for a few years now with Ridley Scott attached to direct I believe. Not sure if he's still involved but it seems they really want a Monopoly movie.

Totally forgot about the Candyland movie. Also the remake of Clue which I'm looking forward to as it's one of my favorite board games and I loved the first movie.

Isn't it too soon for a Battle: LA sequel? *facepalm* Wow. People paid money to make that, and more people will pay money to watch it....

Watch it come out and get great reviews, making all of us look stupid. I doubt it, but who knows.

If this performs well, get ready for Hungry Hungry Hippos next summer!

Ford · 07-27-2011, 08:49 PM

Yeesh. I like everyone involved with this movie...but man, they're making it tough. This kind of a bad teaser can sink (yeah, it's intended) a movie. The first few seconds are actually good. I like the whole Kitsch/Decker/Neeson thing. I'd have been happy with a movie just about that, where he goes from being a screw-up to a hero and wins the girl.

Posted it way back at the beginning of the thread, but now that we've actually gotten a LOOK at the movie's Top Gun-wannabe "Washout fights to be hero" plot, let's take another eerily prophetic look at:

blonde_devil · 07-27-2011, 08:57 PM

Coming Summer 2013 - Tic-Tac-Toe, the Movie, in 3D. Starring Will Smith and Gene Hackman. Experience it as never before

I agree. It was all good...Until it turned into a Transformers deleted scene.

I need to see a full trailer before I fully make up my mind, but this teaser really, really hurt the movie already. It doesn't even need to be called Battleship...That's the worst part...It could have just been a Navy vs Aliens movie with a different title and I would have been ok that.

I think I was spared a bad teaser though.

No, just embed-blocked and linked to the original site--
The "Tough CO tells our hero he'll never make it as one of the Best" real-vs.-artifice parallels are pretty spooky, though.

Ford · 07-27-2011, 09:46 PM

And how could they not have the classic line "You sunk my battleship!" in it. Inexcusable.

Heck yes....our ideas are just as good as Battleship

I think we could totally pitch a script to the studios for a movie based upon the Old Maid card game, starring Tyler Perry dressed up as Madea

WyldeMan45 · 07-27-2011, 09:52 PM

I love how most of the comments are like "Oh god it's Transformers on the water!" and these are the same people who have been consistently feeding Michael Bay's pockets.

I think this movie looks like complete shit, but I like the cast. I can guarantee I will not be seeing this in theaters, I will most likely wait for cable. So now that is both of Taylor Kitsch's big movies next year that I now have almost zero interest in. Damn it Riggs, I expected much more from you, but after Wolverine, I shouldn't have....

Yeah, I agree...John Carter doesn't look too great, either

I had been looking forward to JC for over a year now, and that trailer was beyond underwhelming, pretty much the same thing I feel about this movie. But that was never something I was looking forward to anyways.

Crazy 8's - a Quentin Tarantino film.

Hey! I came up with the Transformers on water first and I dislike the Transformers movies, never went to see them in theaters
