Who sunk my battleship?

So, when I heard a film was being made based off the boardgame Battleship, I asked, "How the fuck can Battleship be turned into a movie?"

Here y'all go

So, I guess the classic catchphrase was always meant to be: You sunk my battleship...with an alien space torpedo!

I think that any boardgame could be turned into a film with the addition of aliens. This is just lazy writing.

I'd watch Chutes and Ladders the movie if it had aliens. "Oh my god, I can't get up this ladder to save my family because there's a goddamn alien in the way!"
