Love Liam Neeson, but this movie sounds weirder and weirder. Do they even have a plot? How can the lineup still be so....uncertain? I am at a loss. How can they be filming already and the cast is still TBA?

Yay! I adore Liam Neesan. His record is a little spotty, but he's always good. And I think A Team was actually a good movie of its type, just under attended. It just shows how difficult it is to predict what the public will respond to. With any luck, Battleship will have a significant focus on the family dynamics of Kitsch's character, with Liam, Alex and Taylor playing off each other. Please let Liam Neesan have responded to something he saw in the script and not just the chance for a holiday in Hawaii--especially since the shoot soon moves to Louisanna. :D

I'm convinced some of these characters are dead people and serving as moral consciences here (unfortunately I'm getting worried Alex is one of them given we haven't seen him above deck yet). Which means a quick and dirty sound stage shoot in moody lighting as they help young Taylor battle the aliens, sigh.

To annoy me? Waste my time? Lol. No really, half the really stupid one are in there for school reading (example- looking for Jane Austen by Charlotte Bronte. Or Pride and Pre-justice. Death of a Mockingbird. I could go on.) The other half are just... bizarre. One person asked me if we sold sheets. Like... bed sheets. And people LOVE to describe the books. I'm looking for this book. I saw it on display a month or so ago, it had a girl with a flower on it and it was about living in the south.

My favorite- a lady who argued with me that the fictional book "Widow of the South" (which is about a confederate wife) was a nonfiction book written by a true confederate widow, and she knows because she saw her talking about the book on TV. I mean... too stupid to function.

To tie this in to AS- I've recognized most of the books he's been pictured carrying just by the images on them, I was just too shy to post and say what they were. I've been in the book business entirely too long.

:lolots: You def need to write that book!!

As for AS, no harm in writing which books they are! I am sure some ardent fans would appreciate it! :D

I don't think any of these guys start as ghosts but I have a feeling a few will be before the movie kicks into high gear. Someone is going to have to die to make Taylor go all bada$$ on the aliens. And I doubt it'll be taylor's gf or rhianna. I think rhianna will play a tough chick fighting the aliens. And the GF can't die that would be too tragic. The impetus has to be tragic but not so much that it removes all posibility of underwear model T and A. Got to keep the male audience happy. And since Taylor is the headliner in this movie either Liam or Alex will be ghosting somewhere in the movie. I hope it's Liam and the movie ends with Alex and company ending aliens. While shirtless. Won't be much more. This is pg-13 kinda stuff.

BTW. Yahoo home page is trending rhianna in a bikini. Something about fake tatoos for the movie.

Ahhh. Thanks for this. He's on another boat. Not Rihanna's boat. Which is why we haven't seen him yet, I bet. Oh good, not that Alex couldn't play apparition well, I really want to see him get to act live in the daylight. But yes, distinct possibility that Taylor will have to "go it alone" at some point to be all that he can be. Not before we've seen him and Brooklyn in their skivvies, I'm sure. Alex's character sounds like he's an uptight rule-following monk, so who knows if he gets any action at all that doesn't involve a gun turret. Damn.

It is still a bit strange that there are no tweets about him anywhere. Meanwhile, people are tweeting about KB walking down the street. What gives???

Lots of stars in Hawaii. Not so many in Rochester, MI. In addition to the fact Demi Moore is also there which is drawing attention...and apparently no one is picking up on our silent pleas to spot and share photos.

That makes sense. Although, some of the tweets about KB are from people who did not even realize who she was. That is pretty funny.

I guess when you think about it, there are not many photos of AS during the time he is filming until after the fact. The exception being TB. He must be throwing himself in his work.

LOL at the Widow of the South! In high school we had huge dispute with our geography teacher who claimed that Napoleon was buried in Corsica bc 20 y/o article said so. I even brought pictures from Les Invalides to prove her that he is buried in Paris but she claimed that pics could be photo shopped :nuts:

I think it's cute that you can recognise books only by their covers or images. It means you're good at your job. ;)

Liam Neeson is joining Battleship. He is a great actor. But when I think about Tom Arnold, Rhianna, and Brooklyn Decker I still don't know what to think about this movie.
