    I have heard that if you into it expecting something awful, it is actually pretty fun. I have also heard that being drunk helps. But, when doesn't it? Other than driving, of course.

      Probably, I was pretty engrossed in the movie, a lot of people could have done a lot of things to me during it.

        Yeah, don't expect it to be a good movie. Its got plot holes in it big enough to hide a battleship in them.

        Truthfully, what this movie really needed was to have come out in the 80's, because other than the CGI effects, its totally a cheesy 80's movie.

          Like the fact that the nearest star with a habitable planet is 20 light years away, so if we sent the signal in 2006 the earliest it could have possibly gotten there would have been 2026.

            They have technology that has dotted all of interstellar space with receivers and another technology of FTL signal transmission to get the trigger message back to the home planet.

            There. All fixed.

            I thoroughly enjoyed Battleship. It was funny-stupid, as opposed to most of Bay's movies that are depressing-stupid.

              The lead female character (Brooklyn Decker) is a classic 80's "I am not a bimbo" bimbo. I took the whole plotline to be a parody of terrible 80's movies like "An Officer and a Gentleman."

                Pretty much.

                I did like how they brought it back to the being with the terms of his surrender at the end of the movie. Just so **** cheesy!

                  The whole thing was a giant wink. I mean, making a movie out of flippin' Battleship was perhaps a clue?

                      It wasn't played for laughs, though. The Wolverine one seemed (from the trailer) more like a remake of the Twilight Zone episode with Lee Marvin.

                            I dont think Battleship was played for laughs or as a wink to the 80s, I think it just sucked and you guys are trying to find a reason to defend your liking a movie that sucked. Dont hide it, embrace your moment of tasteless fun, we all have crap movies that we love and this is one of yours. Dont try and pretend they knew what they were doing and it was some grand plan and you "get it" while others dont, it just makes you stupid

                            For example, I love Howard the Duck despite it sucking hardcore. Do you think I am going to pretend that is was as stupid and lame as it was because the writers were mocking things...no it sucked because it was a cruddy comic character that had no business being in a movie with Tim Robbins and Lea Thompson...but I still love it anyways (funny thing is HTD the comic character actually does mock things, he breaks the 4th wall all the time and basically was a writers way of spitting on comics and characters)
