Please tell me I'm high as a kite and that I imagined that whole thing. Please tell me that I'm simply utterly insane and that none of this is real. Please tell me that there is not and never will be a trailer for an actual movie based on the board game Battleship.

7. But at the end, after the aliens and the boobies and the battleships, it says in the small print
Battleship is a registered trademark of Hasbro.


It's a board game movie with sci-fi elements, and boobies.

5. Yes. It started out as an adaptation of the game, then they "sci-fied" it up:

10. I'm old enough to remember when Liam Neeson hadn't yet worked for George Lucas
That was a happier time, my friends. A happier time.
