The movie also bombed and there's zero chance for a sequel so it's not like the movie got a lot of support.

I feel like this movie should've been about two young kids who play Battleship online. They get into a huge argument and stop talking for a few years.

Flash forward to their adulthood, they both end up in charge of their countries' respective navy. Their two countries are at war, and it's all down to the 2 last ships. BUT....at the last second, they finally send each other a video message to taunt, and they discover...it's their former childhood friend.

They both fire their last missiles to empty water, and hug in an emotional reunion.

I hope not, as that's bad grammar. It's either "You sank my battleship" or "You've sunk my battleship." You're welcome.

And yeah, that was s bad year for Taylor Kitsch, with this movie and and that Mars one from Disney.

Wrong grammar or not, it's still a classic line associated with the game.

Perhaps abstracting a child's game isn't the best idea for a movie. I mean, there are already plenty of movies that already did it better without trying; re: any submarine movie.

I think that was John Carter (which I actually liked). Battleship I thought was a lot better than it had a right to be. A couple of the naval scenes were cool.
