Re: Battleship: The Movie
Aside from "Battleship" and "Stretch Armstrong," U is separately developing "Clue" with Gore Verbinski, "Monopoly" with Ridley Scott, "Candyland" with director Kevin Lima, and "Ouija" with Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes. As a board game, "Battleship" was launched by Milton Bradley in 1967 and has sold more than 100 million units.
I can't believe they are making all of these boardgame movies....I mean, what a weird concept. Clue makes sense, but Monopoly is odd to me. I can see Ouija as a crappy horror movie and Candyland as a crappy kids movie. David Lynch should be directing one of these. It would be guaranteed to be all sorts of effed up...
