BATTLESHIP MOVIE, a strange conspiracy taking place RIGHT HERE on ATS.

Dont know how anyone could waste their time on a CAM rip.....

You suppose to enjoy this movie for the special affects. Personally I would rather have good taste and wait than ruining a good movie.

According to IMDB, the USA will be the LAST country were it will be released.

It was released in the UK, France, Indonesia and Taiwan on 11 April 2012, the day of the double 8.0+ quake close to Indonesia.

More than FIVE WEEKS between the release in the UK and the release in the USA?

How usual is that?

And will be released in the USA in the first day of the G8 summit???

Maybe it has something to do with money? They're saying the movie isn't very good, so they're trying to get as much out of it as possible before releasing it here in the US. www.forbes.com...

And why releasing the movie in the USA would prevent them from making money overseas?

I see no relation...

have you tried frostwire, you get all the new
releases on there,i even watched transformers
two and the kings speach on there before
it was on the cinema

but dude, isn't that piracy?

You don't seem even slightly surprised at this scenario. So I have to ask what the purpose of your thread was? Did you work on the set or something, and are you coming on here to promote/complain about it.

This thread is stranger than your time travel theory, in my opinion.

Paraphrasing the article.

UPDATE: Sunday, April 29th: “Battleship” is now up to $170 Mil worldwide without US release until May 18th.

“Battleship,” Universal Pictures’ big summer entertainment, cost over $200 million to make. You know it’s cheesy and not very good, so why subject the studio to American reviews? Very wisely, Universal has been opening “Battleship” around the world in advance of its May 18th U.S. landing. And the result: already $129 million in the bank. And more to come. These numbers are from Boxofficemojo.com. And they tell you why Ron Meyer is so good at his job running the studio. The movie has terrible reviews–it’s scored a 48% on Rotten Tomatoes. One British reviewer simply called it “trash.” Universal calls it “money” and there will enough of it by May 18th to avoid a “John Carter” disaster. This is the new trend. If your movie is bad, play for it people who just need to see explosions and special effects. The movie stars non-actor Rihanna, and “John Carter” hero Taylor Kitsch.

Well, I have to give thanks to this thread, for caughting my attention for the strange five weeks gap between the release of the movie in the UK and in the USA.

And of course, the fact it was released in the UK and Indonesia in the day of the 8.0+ quake in Indonesia, and will be released in the USA in the first day of the G8 summit in Camp David.

Thanks OP, I wouldn't realize all this if it wasn't for this thread.

Makes no sense to me.

If it was in the US theaters, it wouldn't prevent anyone from watching it in the other countries...

Movies are usually released in other countries before they come out in the US. I downloaded a copy of Avengers last week, a poor copy with Greek subtitles, in fact, it was so bad a copy I didnt even bother watching past 5 minutes.

But a five weeks gap is a LOT of time, don't you think?

Two or three weeks, OK, but FIVE?

nothing strange my friend, I believe there is at least 1 "cam" copy of the movie. "Cam" meaning someone recorded it from a camera, phone, handycam, with "mic" audio. I'm positive I saw that come up on one of the sites.

Unless you get a decent audio feed, and sync it up as most do.

It was pretty rubbish imo tho. glad I saved myself $13.

Well, I'm supposed to enjoy a movie. That's the point.

And I am glad I got this out of the way before I did waste money on it. They don't deserve my money on this one... imo.

rotten acting, and .. well, alien movie for the sake of alien movie... boring...

Why they are holding the release of this movie in the USA for so long?

Why they will release it in the USA only on May 18th, the first day of the G8 summit?

Now, THIS is something to think about.

OK, I am thinking.
