Dog Would Sink Battleship®

Battleship® the movie was recently released.  I heard that the reviews were awful.  My personal opinion is they should sink this movie based on a board game and try again with other great board games.

I believe Monopoly® would make a great movie based on the lingering real estate market woes.  The movie would start by showing how there are all of these great properties available.  It would then show how many metal chotskies with cash flow issues buy these properties up, sometimes acquiring multiple properties at one time.  These chotskies would then try to resell the properties, or would build houses or hotels on these newly acquired properties.  The movie would finish with each of the chotskies running out of money, except for one.  I would definitely play the chotsky dog in this movie, leaving the other players to fight over the chotsky dirty shoe, which I would probably eat.

I believe Old Maid® would make a great movie based on everybody trying to avoid being stuck with the only person who is not a pair.  Everybody is meeting and matching, maybe doing some online dating, or It’s Just Lunches.  But, this one lady has no meets or matches and just kind of cruises through life.  She continually is being passed between people who are trying to avoid being stuck with her.  She may even have a lot of cats.  I probably could not star in this movie due to my dislike of cats.

I believe Fur-Ever Home®, The Animal Rescue Game would make a great animated movie based on animal rescue, and everybody working together to try to get all homeless animals into fur-ever homes.  I could star in this movie, in an animated kind of way.  I could then have my brother star in the movie with me, like many famous actors and actresses do.  The rescues would take us in, care for us, and adopt us out to loving homes.  There could be a love story between the two shelter operators, where at some point they merge and become one large rescue – saving more animals.  LOVE!! 

Battleship® is a great board game, or so it seems.  Scrabble® is a great board game, or so it seems.  I cannot play either of them with small playing pieces and no thumbs, but I can watch my parents play them.  They both seem awesome!  But, just because a board game is awesome does not mean the movie will be awesome.   Lesson learned, now time to sink Battleship® the movie.
