The Battleship movie just went from ho - hum board game to a Roland Emmerich / Michael Bay - esque larger-than-life battle between humans and aliens . And the details about our other - temporal foe are pouring out .
Thanks to Latino Review we now have a full report on what managing director Peter Berg is planning for his Battleship movie . It sounds wondrous heroic and Independence Day fearsome / awesome .
This is what we hear from Berg …
The aliens , called The Regents , came here see for something , but they are not wholly malefic bent on world domination . We did nothing to provoke them , but they still have an ecological involvement in our domain . Also they go off ballistics , not ray gun and will be half - CG half-“man in a suit ” technology . But lamentably , their ship is damage somehow and that becomes another part of the plot of land :
“ the foe does come from another planet … We render to keep it a secret , but it ’s our goal to make that as reasoning and logical , for certain as ‘ District 9 ’ was able to do . But to provide a real intelligence to our opposer , a logic , a rationale for being there and not purely hostile , violent creatures bend on global destruction . They ’ve find a much more coherent agendum planned that go on to fare into conflict with us . Then there ’s a chance for two relatively equal opponents to go at each other and you get a sense of some of the equipment you saw , the level and intelligence of that character of what modernistic sailors are today . ”
“ There ’s a radical of living forms from some other major planet have amount to our planet for something . They ’ve incur a very specific docket . That docket is not ball-shaped domination . It ’s an order of business and that agenda put them into conflict with member of our military . Their engineering is relatable . It ’s not fantastically far out and unbeatable . It ’s comprehensible . Hopefully it ’ll make for well fun and an intense ride . ”
There will be a battleship - esque filmdom in the game similar to the moving picture :
“ This is a key bent in the flick . You put this screen on , it ’s very easy to imagine this as a much more advanced Battleship screen from the board game . What they ’re doing with this screen is identifying threat or identifying object whether it be in the air , on the ocean or underwater . Much the same way you would endeavor to identify or place your enemy in the secret plan . ”
And at long last the moving-picture show will be heavily inquiry based when deal with forward-looking day Naval engineering science , and what happens when all of their high technical school gadgets stop functioning :
“ One of the affair the pic inspire is it take us into this fantastically complicated world of communications , of radio detection and ranging , of GPS locators , of weapons system , to show all of this Department of State of fine art as cool as we possibly can . Somebody ask about backups ? ( If the calculator systems go down ) That ’s another thing we ’re going to sort of explore . claim away some of the technology we have … . for example , you ’ll see there ’s a light out here [ on the battlewagon the newsperson were on ] . This is an old fashioned Morse Code signal ignitor . All of this country of the art engineering in the world , if everything else exit , if you ca n’t get a cell phone or walkie talkie sign , this can bespeak Morse code . And obviously in the secret plan Battleship , being capable to identity in the biz where your enemy is , and settle and place , is something , that is the core component of the game . Well , one of things we trust to do in this cinema successfully , is to take away some of this really incredible state of the art applied science and have people communicating , and this is just one exemplar , there ’s others , of using some sort of sure-enough - school communication . ”
