(Fun for the whole family! Wait, check that, fun for men, for women to experience vicariously while they finish the dishes.)

Transformers was a Hasbro toy, so when a Transformers movie made a bunch of money, Hasbro decided they could apply the same formula for all their toys, even the ones that involved rolling the dice to see how far you could move a piece of fake candy across a piece of cardboard.  The latest Hasbro property to get a film adaptation is Battleship (yes, that Battleship). Hasbro and Universal are reportedly close to a deal with director Peter Berg (The Kingdom, Hancock, Very Bad Things).

While plot details are being kept below deck, the studio is looking to make an epic naval action adventure. [THR]

Of course they are.  I can see it now.. “Fire again!”  “Miss.”  “Damn! The North Koreans must be… traveling diagonally!  Clever bastards!!!”    Haha, but on a serious note, I hope everyone at Hasbro gets cancer.
