Line #12 Funny/Battleship


1	* Alex's heroic quest to obtain a chicken burrito.
2	** Especially helped by ''Franchise/ThePinkPanther'' theme.
3	** Gets referred to [[BrickJoke the very end of the movie]]:
4	--> '''Admiral Shane''': I'm late for lunch. I think I'll have a...chicken burrito.
5	--> '''Alex''': ...She told you about that?
6	--> '''Admiral Shane''': Come on, Hopper. We can discuss the terms of your surrender over a meal.
7	** Double the funny: it was based off of a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEb_lZTZUUg real life botched liquor store robbery]].
8	* Cal's reaction when he meets Samantha and Mick.
9	* Mr. Zapata's reaction when he is informed that there are inbound objects in formation.
10	--> '''Zapata''': Uh, Maybe we should call NASA.
11	--> '''Alex''': NASA have called us. They're on the phone right now. (screen cuts to a control room full of people, with a screen of Zapata behind them)
12	--> '''Man at NASA''': Good morning, Mr. Zapata.
13	--> '''Zapata''': NASA?
14	* Hopper's attempt to rehearse his speech to Admiral Shane in the mirror.
15	-->'''Hopper:''' "It would be a thankful honor to have your permission to honor...your hand." {{Beat}} "What?"
16	* One of the ''John Paul Jones'' deckcrew freaks out when he hears that [[LeeroyJenkins Hopper]] is [[ThisIsGonnaSuck now in command of the ship.]]
17	-->'''Crewman:''' Are you kidding me? Hopper's running the ship? This is bullshit. We're all going to die!
18	* Most any conversation between Raika & Ordy, befitting their ThoseTwoGuys role in the film.
19	* This little exchange during the [[LockAndLoadMontage reactivation]] of ''Missouri'':
20	-->'''Ordy:''' runs into a control room and sees a USS ''North Carolina'' vet tweaking some controls
21	-->'''Veteran:''' Son.
22	-->'''Ordy:''' half confused Sir?
23	-->'''Veteran:''' all but glares at him What the hell, you gonna stand there, staring at me? Get yer goddamn eye on that spotter!
24	-->'''Ordy:''' promptly puts on a sound-powered phone headset Eye on spotter, sir!
25	* The alien's ammunition consists of a round cylinder with a smaller round cylinder attached to it on one end that pushes in to detonate after sticking into an enemy ship small cylinder first. In short: They are metal pegs.
26	** The fact that they pause for an instant upon contact, ''then'' sink in, is particularly amusing: the pegs in the tabletop game didn't always fit perfectly into the holes on the model ships, needing a second tap to make ''them'' sink in all the way.
27	* Just after aligning the ''Missouri'' to fire on the mothership, we get this:
28	-->'''''Missouri'' Veteran Crewman:''' Let's drop some lead on [[CurseCutShort this mother-]]
29	-->'''Hopper:''' FIRE!
30	* After a completely [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome epic]] attack on the flagship...
31	-->'''Nagata:''' I can't believe that worked!
32	-->'''Hopper:''' Yeah, ''Art of War'', "Fight the enemy where they aren't." After all these years it finally just clicked.
33	-->'''Nagata:''' But that's not what it means.
34	-->{{Beat}}
35	-->'''Hopper:''' Really?
36	-->'''Nagata:''' Not even close.
37	* The duo just before sniping.
38	-->'''Hopper:''' Where did you learn to shoot?
39	-->'''Nagata:''' I'm not sure how you say it in English. "Natsu Campu. Summer campu".
40	-->'''Hopper:''' "Summer campu". Thinks about it Summer camp?
41	-->'''Nagata:''' Champion, when I was twelve.
42	-->'''Hopper:''' Are you kidding me? Cue aliens
43	* Alex and Stone giving completely opposite motivation speeches to their crews.
44	* Alex and Nagata get into a fight and are court martialed by Shane. Their explanation: Alex slipped, Nagata tried to catch him, and they both 'knocked their heads'. Shane is not amused.
