Yes, like the board game. No, I'm not making this up.

I...honestly don't know what to say about this. It's certainly unique, but...my guess is it'll be filled to the brim with Narm.

This may be the worst example of In Name Only in quite a while. Had they stuck to the game, it could have been like The Hunt For Red October.

I was expecting a traditional fight between two naval fleets, but this seems okay.

[up][up][up]Surprisingly, it isn't In Name Only.

The aliens put up a shield that prevents both fleets from leaving. Radar's busted, so they have to aim manually with their cannons. Finally, the aliens fire peg-shaped shells.

It's probably gonna be terrible...but it'll be unique and hilariously terrible. I'm gonna watch the shit out of this movie.

Damn it, the video's been taken down. There's an article on The Escapist that shows the trailer, though. Watch it there.

Normally I'd ask why. But my mad laughs answer that.

I read on Bleeding Cool that is written by the same guys who adapted RED. Which makes me a bit uneasy because I really, really, liked the film and thought it was a really good In Name Only adaption of the comic.

But the director's last film was Hancock, which was filled with many a Flat Character and Ass Pull.

Eh, movie might be "high art cinema" but it looks like it'll at least be worth a few laughs.

I'm hoping to see Liam Neeson say "you sank my battleship!"

[up][up] Yes, I will watch the clip of Liam shouting "You sunk my battleship!" on a loop for hours if it's in in the movie. On Youtube. I'm not wasting time on this film.

This is one of those trailers that, if I saw it squeeze between two of those fake trailers in front of Tropic Thunder, I would not bat an eye. That Hugh Jackman rock 'em sock 'em robot film is the same way.

And possibly the least surprising studio decision of the year: Rihanna doesn't appear in any of the trailer.

The first poster has been released. Looks way too much like the teaser poster for Titanic.

Again. All we need is Liam Neeson to say "You sunk my battleship."

Possible idea for a cameo:

The villain calls for B7, which prompts Ethan Suplee to shout "Oh no they didn't!".

It is for real?

Not like these Real Trailer, Fake Movie trailers of Minesweeper or Tetris?
