Battleship - Final battle

I just frapsed this final battle from the movie Battleship, i hope you enjoy it

[@HisHolyMajesty]

I don't care what technological level you possess, a broadside from nine 16inch guns is going to fuck you up.

[@yaprishu]

16* bro.

[@dontask6863]

Imagine 18" broadsides. Those were real too.

[@alexherrera8998]

yep

[@Coo1St0ry]

Imagine 26inch barrel that Japanese had, I think it was 26

[@VMIFerrari]

The Japanese battleships Yamato and Musashi were equipped with 18.1 inch guns; the largest ever constructed for a warship.

[@Alamandorious]

We may have missiles capable of flying thousands of miles, we may have jets, drones, and bombers...but there will never be ANYTHING as awe-inspiring and cool as a battleship doing a full-broadside barrage.

[@OniDemo]

+Alamandorious Funny thing is that Missouri was modernized so it should have had missiles and CWIS and all that technological stuff.

[@Pikkabuu]

+Alamandorious Battleship broadsides...what is really awe-inspiring and cool is seeing a bayonet charge. Now that is something cool and not that Navy frilly shit.

[@Alamandorious]

Pikkabuu Ah yes, someone from the 'drive closer and let me hit them with my sword' club ^^ j/k Seriously, that is an impressive sight, but for different reasons than why a broadside from a battleship is impressive ^^

[@noahbusch7542]

Nope a battleship beats all

[@south662]

+Alamandorious Battleships wouldnt have retired if they acquired the efficiency of their shots.

[@1acroyear1]

I love the way those advanced super sophisticated aliens throw German WW1 grenades.

[@1acroyear1]

Well I never would have put two and two together. Thank you.

[@ToastablePie]

+1acroyear1 the whole movie is based on the board game

[@1acroyear1]

Toastable Pie Captain Obvious to the rescue!

[@ToastablePie]

+1acroyear1 some people don't know that

[@1acroyear1]

Toastable Pie Sure. The Hasbro logo at the beginning of the movie wouldn't have been any kind of hint.

[@galbert117]

You know you're a badass when you can drift a BATTLESHIP into firing position.

[@paul4556]

hahah ikr

[@nikolaiorr8383]

that scene was so damn cool made my day when i watched this movie

[@wiimotethrower2860]

not mention, its a WW2 battleship. its pretty cool that a WW2 battleship can take down A FREAKING CLASS 5 ALIEN RACE WAR SPACE CRAFT!!!

[@bleu_ace1200]

The scene is badass as hell, but IRL it would have torn the ship in half. However, none of us are complaining because HOW FUCKING AWESOME WAS THIS!?

[@Terra-Antares]

Its a class 7 and shoulda had shields

[@diapason89]

Let's drop some lead on these mother--FIRE!!! Best. Line. Ever.

***** Fucking Hasbro man.

[@NinjagoGuy416]

***** Wait, you're being serious? Those guys are actual veterans of the Missouri?!

[@morbius109]

***** I know, right? Awesome way to describe what the Old School Navy did best ^.^

[@godofawesum223]

NinjagoGuy416 Yes! Most of the old timers "background actors" are actual service men who served on the Missouri in one war or another. Which is quit a few considering she served for 60 years give or take.

[@JTelli786]

Action=100% Realism=0% thats what every single comment. review. critic, person, unborn child, is telling me. But hows about we rate this movie for what it is? Action!

[@Shull97]

Welcome to a world of reality. People always find things to criticize:)

[@raikun2963]

because they don't have the guts to take action to fix what's wrong with their country or lives

[@ladblunderdock236]

[@lyonvensa]

Sure, today you got long range missiles, fighter planes, torpedoes, and all the high tech weapons. But NOTHING is as badass as a broadside attack from a battleship with nine 16Inch guns.

[@lyonvensa]

***** If only they used the Yamato, though...

[@tnrhomestead6645]

the power of the Yamato 18's did not have the distance nor the velocity of the us. batlleship's with 16's

[@michaela3441]

they did have the range and velocity but the US ships had better fire control systems.

Yup yup.

[@luciffertribal794]

[@sickleandsuckle]

no matter how bad the movie was you gotta admit this scene was epic

[@thestaggy]

Years later, people are still whining about authenticity. Who gives a fuck? We get to see a battleship with fuck-off guns light up an alien ship/vessel. That is what I call ENTERTAINMENT.

[@Pikkabuu]

+The Staggy Not everyone is willing to put our brains off while watching movies. Some of us actually wish that the movies they watch aren't just mindless "Oooh look at the colours of that explosion!"-drivel.

[@thestaggy]

Then don't watch it? What were you expecting from a movie titled 'Battleship'? And some of us get jaded by real life and all the negativity we are surrounded by, so we want to switch our brains off and be entertained.

[@Pikkabuu]

The Staggy Because we had an evening with friends and this just came out and most of our group wanted to check it out. And there are tons of movies that don't demand that you switch your brains off and still get entertained.

[@thestaggy]

Pikkabuu So, there are tons of movies that will entertain you and are not mindless yet you fixate on this one film? Lighten up.

[@Pikkabuu]

The Staggy So we should just accept slush and let the bar go lower instead of demanding good entertainment?

[@pancakepredator8474]

My favorite thing about this scene is the sound of the cannons. Man, they did an epic job with those. I would take that sound over any other any day.

[@RetroTekGuyAU]

This movie was great BECAUSE it was silly and over the top.

[@TraustiGeir]

That's the beauty of it.

they really dont make things the way they used to, these old ships were tough as nails didn't need facny tech just good old steel and lots and lots of big guns

[@superbeast2453]

I like you... You make a great point...

[@Chungus581]

Well battleships cost three times as much as aircraft carriers and have half the firepower and less power projection so it was a good switch

[@Denton1952]

+William Poole battleships don't have "half the firepower." Even carrier Admirals acknowledge that battleships have greater firepower within their damage radius. 1000 shells, 9 guns at 2 shells per minute. Carriers--up to 100 planes, not all of them for combat, launching maybe 4 at a time and you have to wait for their return between sorties. Penetration is also a factor--missiles can penetrate how much concrete again? The 16" shells can break through 30 ft. Carriers have greater range. That was the tradeoff.

[@SherlockHolmes000]

Battleships do not cost three times as much as aircraft carriers. An Aircraft carrier is a floating city with thousands of marines/crew members, that costs a fortune to maintain, and require specialized training for aircraft/pilots/nuclear technology. Every aircraft used on an aircraft carrier also costs a fortune, as well as the ordinance used to strike from them. A battleship could level an entire city from 20 miles away with sustained 16 inch bombardment over a period of a week for far less cost than sending pilots/cruise missiles. The main usage of an aircraft carrier is simply for range, nothing more. The reason for the disbanding of battleships is actually to a change in war doctrine, battleships cause collateral damage, and people today don't have the stomach for war, and the idea of civilian losses frighten them.

[@MrRay168]

i cant agree with you after how they bullied a perry class frigate in rimpac this year

[@steveforsyth7269]

Aliens fly billions of miles to destroy earth… in water based vessels… 'nuff said...

[@mr6johnclark]

Steve Forsyth Like independence day...

[@neurofiedyamato8763]

nguyen danny With range that is equal to if not less than WW2.

[@patrickking1292]

Steve Forsyth If you rewatch the movie (or listen to the director's commentary) you can see that the aliens were not here to destroy earth...or even to attack. They are not even equipped for a military operation. Not everything is known about them...but they are some form of a crashed scientific expedition that has lost its communications, and wants to hide in the water until it can figure out how to phone home...and miscommunication and the navy mess up their plans, more or less. So its like a science or mining group making due with minimal weaponry... They're not entirely peaceful but they're not very warlike, either. And then it all escalates and gets out of hand...

[@patrickking1292]

noobkiller117 Where in the movie is this?

[@patrickking1292]

Those might be scenes of our aliens attacking other planets. At any rate, its far from a clear statement that the aliens were here merely for refuge. Alien mind melds I guess can be confusing.

[@justsomeguy6480]

one of the best moments I've seen in a movie,this scene is awesome!!!

[@Lady_Deadpool]

Why do aliens who attack us always want to kill us off up close and personal when they can safely do it from orbit? Aliens: Has highly advance tech and weapons with space ships. Humans: No space ships. Aliens strategy: A ground assault.

[@stephanosioannou1825]

ikr

[@gunsnrosaries]

+Lady Deadpool 💋 The theatre wouldn't sell as much popcorn for a two minute movie......

[@bringbackthebattleships8933]

+Lady Deadpool 💋 well they probably want our resources (like in many movies) so they dont want to use high damaging weaponry

[@TheFates666]

+Lady Deadpool 💋 That's why I've always loved the Covenant in Halo. They always try to just go for glassing from orbit if possible. Also spawns a lot of my favorite quotes, like Master Chief's musings in the books about how the Spartans ALWAYS won on the ground but that didn't help when the covenant could just stay in space.

[@Lady_Deadpool]

Bring back the Battleships The problem with that is I can't think of any resource found on earth that aliens couldn't find or easily grow/make themselves. If it's ores like iron and copper etc then the same materials and ores can be found all over our solar system seeing as all the planets, moons and asteroid fields etc were made from the same debris that make up our planet too. If it's something like trees or water? Seriously? How hard is it to grow a tree? The moon Europa around Jupiter is made up of mostly ice and the size of a moon! There is even ice on Mars. If they just want to move in to our planet without destroying the environment then they still can easily take us out from orbit by just introducing a virus with no cure or at least hard to cure. Shouldn't e too hard for them to find something like it with their advance tech/science. Hell there are viruses now on earth that we humans can't find a cure for or hard to over come once infected. Infact when I think about it is there any reason for an alien race to WANT to kill us off?

[@mejfuz]

Another fucking " Murica saved the world " movie ...

[@bingo784]

Look, man, if you're dissatisfied with american movie writers and producers glorifying the US on the big screen, then go get someone to make a movie where the frenchies or chinese or whoever save the world. Until then you're stuck with "murica saves the world".

[@MrJustonemorevoice]

Actually but its a retired ship, crewed by Japanese AND American sailors It takes place during RIMPAC where all navies compete, and the modern US ships got blown up by the alien craft as well.

[@Carolinacaveman]

Its Britain, Russia, the US, China, and North Korea. Top 5.

[@rosewell1983]

so fucking awesome when the ship fire off its cannons....today there is only ships with missiles and a tiny gun placed on bow. abit boring

[@calebmayfield8474]

Yes they may have a small gun but on hit from a modern shell could punch through that battleships armour

[@triunepalamineswedish4486]

Caleb Mayfield

[@mygoatisdead]

Caleb Mayfield Caleb, not true my friend . Modern shells can't do a damn thing to Missouri's armour -- not a shell from the 5 inch gun, which is the biggest they have now. In fact, it's arguable that a anti-ship missile wouldn't punch a hole in the armor either. But that doesn't matter, all the missile has to do is do a top down strike, or smash the superstructure. This question has been asked many times in numerous military forums, and the answer is always the same. I encourage you to look it up if you doubt, but it's a decent question for sure...

so...lemme get this straight, You DRIFTED an entire battleship, so that you could agoid their attack And counter with a full-on broadside

[@HaloPlay100]

+Tom Dee It really can't. No, seriously. And even if it could, by some super strong chain, the Iowa class has the worst hull shape for it.

[@whtwolf100]

L Ys history says otherwise. This is based on an actual navy maneuver.

[@HaloPlay100]

+legionbunny cite it pls. I know of no incident where a battleship drifted like that. Even the most agile battleship, the Yamato, had a turn radius of at least 700m.

[@noahbusch7542]

America navy

[@WaveForceful]

+legionbunny The fact that alien ships survived a full broadside from an IOWA at that range is an impressive feat in itself, that would of oneshot any other warship. The HMS Warspite did something similar to a german destroyer, pointed all its 15 inch guns at the DD and fired...the destroyer literally ceased to exist.

[@marineduard8816]

A technologicaly advanced alien ship getting stomped by a ww 2 ship

[@coolykid443]

well you know, 16 Inch guns firing 2,700 Pound projectiles does pack a very damn big punch. Big guns afterall!

[@rickewjr]

Only reason Battle ship are not in real use to day is because of modern Air power and long rang mission. Upgrade a WW2 Battle ships with a defensive system to counter that, like say the USS North Carolina, and It will crush any modern day ship in a fight. Hell I would love for them to create a modern day battle ship with anti air defenses and Modern day long range guns, yes guns fuck missiles battle ships need big ass gun. Hell finish developing the rail gun and come up with a battle ship sized one and slap them on that will make the battle ship relevant again.

[@ShadowFalcon]

Yes I understand all of your points. But they still made the USS Missouri look cool as heck.

[@guardiadecivil6777]

It was being decomissioned (whatever you spell it) but they allow the camera crews in it

[@WilfredIvanhoe]

It could be something like in Stargate. Gloating alien: "Weapons do not work here." **O'Neill shoots the alien in the face** ...because only energy weapons were disabled, but no one expected interplanetary travellers to use primitive projectile weapons. Maybe the aliens in the movie are equipped to fight other aliens with lasers, plasma cannons, phasers or whatever, instead of good old 16-inch guns firing massive, armor-piercing projectiles.

[@talonsclaw9058]

True but if they invade a planet that they have been planning to invade from the start then they would learn about their enemy first then take them down like the deceptocons in transformer 1 well that is until the humans found out their sabal ap rounds hurted them

[@cordar7547]

Or their homeworld simply had far more numerous natural obstacles, considering those ships could jump and primarily catapults their heavier munitions rather than direct fire - by extension this could mean their hull was produced to stop indirect munitions from digging in rather than the brute force approach of the battleship.

This movie is so absurd but when those 16 inch guns swing around, what a moment!

[@Vicentemetalero]

How long does really take to reload those canons?

[@musketeersmadhouse2262]

takes about 30secs to reload those 16" guns, the first salvo was at 1:13 and second salvo was at 2:12 give or take. The longer duration of reload, due to the explosion on the third turret and near the second.

[@chillyfirefx2174]

I heard it was 35 secs, or maybe that's just the Japanese

[@AJAtcho]

30 secnonds since rate of fire is 2 rounds/minute I know it's 30 sec because i played World of Warships XD

[@robertisaac4950]

why base it off a video game that makes no sense just look it up if you believe anything you see.

[@AJAtcho]

+headshot justin Then, well, nothing would be too much different, probably take longer.

[@themanestmanaa7788]

The bismark should have been used

[@peterson7082]

BoomShakalaka Neither would make 'too much' of a difference other than what the damage the Missouri is creating already. There is however, one major difference: the Iowa class (USS Missouri is the 3rd ship of the class) salvo weight can fire 24,000lb of 'lead'. The Bismarck and Tirptiz could only make 14,000lb per salvo each. This means it could potentially take longer than necessary, and result in unnecessary human deaths.

don't know why everyone loves the Bismark class battleships. the Iowa was superior in every way 1: Iowa has 16" guns while Bismark had 15" 2: Iowa had more guns 3: Bismark had better optics, but Iowa had better radar 4: Iowa could blind fire it's guns, Bismark couldn't 5: Iowa rounds where 1000lbs heavier and still travel the same speed as Bismarck projectiles bismark/tirpitz was shit compared to the iowa

[@irishstar1780]

I already memorize this movie final battle this is my favorite movie

[@NightSniper2]

0:52 Déjà Vu! I've just been in this place before! (Higher on the street!) And I know it's my time to come home! Calling you! And the subject's a mystery! (Standing on my feet!) It's so hard when I try to believe! Whooooaaa!!

[@matthewmcgowan3636]

just think for a second , what if the bismark , the arizona ( if where still in operaition ) , the yamoto and then a dropship from aliens 3 teamed up together . i know thats toooooooooooooo mutch firepower but just think.THAT WOULD BE AWSOME.

[@anotherjacksparrow4480]

yeah i also like that

[@RKidd-ex3rh]

What do you think was going through the aliens minds when they spotted the Missouri? My guess would be "oh........shit......."

[@meowsandstuff]

Mine would be "Lol thats just a battleship I can bl-BLARGH

[@BustyBraixen]

i think they went "WORT WORT WORT!"

[@meowsandstuff]

o3o

[@TheDhrz]

That would be mine too.

[@uglypyro4416]

"The fuck is this shit? xD"

[@zerodark3505]

If the movie was just battleships firing broadsides like this for an hour and thirty minutes, not only would I watch it I would enjoy immensely more. Or maybe make the plot similar to the game with no aliens and more battleships.

[@sideshowbob3402]

YEA MURICA!!!

[@UnNotAnon]

This is like a 17th century battleship taking down a modern destroyer

[@jayleeridon8116]

Smaller ships: Grandma aliens are invading! U.S.S. Missouri: LET GRANDMA SHOW YOU HOW WE BROUGHT THE PAIN BACK IN MY DAY!!

[@Dcc357]

You can't drift a ship like that but this was one of the coolest scenes I have ever seen in any movie. The aliens were pretty much fucked at 2:26.

[@peterschlueter2282]

People may be skeptical over the value of aging technology against modern technology, but there's just something remarkable to me about a warship capable of lobbing a 6 ft round weighing the rough weigh of a VW beetle roughly 15 miles, creating a basketball court sized ditch 10 feet deep.

[@Kriegsmen-7803]

I loved the old man: let’s drop some lead on those mother fire

[@tannerashik4528]

That's what I call a R.A.P.S Deploy ship lmao

[@KhanGarth]

despite how huge of a suspension of disbelief taking the USS Missouri out when she normally isn't seaworthy, this scene is still infinitely better than the movie it was put into.

[@B818Champ]

This movie is a guilty pleasure.

[@stabilisedchaos]

1950's battle ship wins Vs a superior alien space traveling master race,seems legit.

[@Igor9011998]

50's??? That's the USS Missouri from WW2

[@sofiamadlangbayan1922]

*facepalm* OF COURSE HAHAHAAH

[@SargeRho]

16" guns are nothing to joke about. And the alien ships were scouts, not warships. They were their equivalent of corvettes or frigates.

[@SRFriso94]

And here I find myself wondering... Why couldn't the movie be about these old guys kicking ass? That would have been so much more awesome.

[@vanteal]

Love how they let some actual WWII survivors partake in this movie.

[@collinwenstad4882]

now that's how I call drifting

[@Rhythmaxed]

Yo drifting battleships initial D style.

[@marnickfox9891]

this movie show the pure strengt of a battleship they still can do a lot of damage so sad the era of battleships ended

[@MasteroChieftan]

omg the alien bombs are pegs. the alien bombs are fucking pegs.

[@MisatoK29]

So what is the difference between this movie and Pacific Rim?

[@ryanlak1234]

Pacific Rim- has giant robots fighting alien monsters (kind of like Evangelion) Battleship- has a small contingent of the world's navy in battle with alien spaceships. PS you shouldn't sink two battleships just to kill an Angel..

[@sparrowlt]

Here you get to see a super battleship drifting.... Also some Burke class destroyers constantly switchign between flight I and flight IIA variants

[@MisatoK29]

ryanlak1234 actually, i don't know where the robots were, in Evangelion. The Evanglelions (living creations) fought the Angels (Angels aren't robots either). =D

[@durian111]

this movie suck more, oh and the level of american patriotism propaganda are on the scale of godzilla.

[@Techrat3D]

Best scene of the movie, but I don't think they would have EVER let the Mythbusters test to see if a full size battleship could do that manuver with the port anchor. :o)

[@nathanceja5156]

when you FINALLY win an argument with your mom...

[@ac2038]

Such a badass scene

[@GilfordEurig]

When those pesky aliens want to take over Earth, and the old people have to come help take them out.

[@LGamerr]

lol

[@kellywilson-lawson1857]

Correction: the veterans (also known as "the people who've fought in real wars) have to come and save everyone

[@VMIFerrari]

I'm so glad EIGHT of these American beauties still survive as museum ships.

[@SargeRho]

Eight? There are only 4 Iowa class Battleships. Iowa, New Jersey, Wisconsin and Missouri. The Illinois and Kentucky were never completed, and no other Iowas were laid down.

[@VMIFerrari]

I was referring to all eight remaining battleships, not just the Iowas: Alabama, Massachusetts, Texas, and North Carolina were also spared from the scrap yards.

[@SargeRho]

VMIFerrari Oh, nevermind then.

[@rust3950]

That was another level of badassery right there

[@zerozhack]

A futuristic alien ship getting it's ass kick by a WWII battleship lol

[@musketeersmadhouse2262]

oh well mate those are 16 inch guns, they are quite accurate.

[@chillyfirefx2174]

an American battleship built in WWII tho

[@HeadsUp02]

The last Iowas to be in service had Tomahawk and Harpoon missile launchers with 4 Phalanx CIWS, combine that with GPS, artillery and sheer armor that ship is unstoppable if escorted properly.

[@musketeersmadhouse2262]

HeadsUp02 yes she is a great ship, but we must never quote that a ship is "unstoppable", for ill fate follows, either way its a machine it can be stopped and destroyed by man or nature. End of the day the battleships were phased out of service due to their aging hulls and high maintenance cost, this is a similar story to the advanced blackbird that was put away before its time was done.

[@putzthewondersloth]

You're right. It's a futuristic alien ship (which would be designed to withstand multiple environments) versus a WWII-era battleship (which was designed for pretty much close to medium-range ship-to-ship encounters on the sea). It's basically your jack-of-all-trades ship in the alien one vs. the master of one trade in the Missouri. Throw in a little suspension of disbelief and you can enjoy the fight.

[@larnregis]

16inch guns. Can change the most silly scene into pure epicness.

[@Antoinebech]

Great.. now i'm going to watch the whole movie

[@twojastara9265]

I love this American optimism. You can even make failures in Vietnam and Korea look like victories. Meanwhile here in Poland our films are always masochist where a lot of polish people die. We have tens of films about our biggest failure which is Warsaw Uprising. And even in films where we have won always more Polish people die. I must say American storyline in films is mostly piece of crap but I love this motivating optimism and special effects.

[@puszman1]

Tier X Iowa class battleship on GOLD amo

[@flaviosalatino8192]

well, right now, if i Kniw what you're referring to, ( world of warship) it'll be the tier 9

[@puszman1]

Flavio Salatino yep , i have closed beta

[@SargeRho]

Michał Głuś But the Iowa is Tier 9, the Montana is Tier 10.

[@tranvanthong4548]

The best movie I've ever seen :D

[@Al3xandr35]

imagine if that was a summit class battleship

[@danteinouye6098]

fuck those aliens

[@Al3xandr35]

+Dante Inouye umm what ?

[@legatuslegionis9074]

+Alex Rheinharder Would have been beautiful... *.*

[@Al3xandr35]

you know what i mean>?

[@legatuslegionis9074]

Of course, but I prefer the Galaxy Class Battleship. Cybran 4 EVER!

[@truwiccanallizpossible1010]

wtf.Ive seen Tony Hawk grind a skateboard, but grinding a battleship is pure talent.

[@paulmares9815]

*snarls*

[@Liamflynnphoto]

Reasons unfortunately the BB isn't in service 1.) Cruisers and Destroyers have same amount of firepower 2.) Hard to produce and maintain. 3.) Extremely expensive to build and maintain 4.) Sitting duck when having to fire 5.) Effective fire support range is limited. Missiles can cover continents.

[@reyvinz8908]

Plus missile is more accurate than their battery . But if you tech up the battle it would be a game changing , imagine battleship carrying nuclear warhead

[@Liamflynnphoto]

Rey Vinz There were nuclear warheads made for the Iowas 16in rifles. They were never used

[@declanolivetti4319]

Aliens: how did we lose? Humans: we bought gold ammo and this ship is a high tier premium World War 2 special edition Aliens: fucking wallet warrior Humans: you had armor over 100mm

[@TheHabsfan92]

DONT FUCK WITH THE USS MISSOURI

[@MusicLover88321]

Let's just face it If this was real, that ship would of been sank within minutes!

[@rolandramos3720]

THATS A 70 % CHANCE This Is REAL

[@WaveForceful]

+Andy McDonough You'd be surprised as to how much a battleship can take and still remain afloat. It's not an unarmored tin can like those Destroyers are, were talking 12 inches of armour that can block even it's own shells.

[@bringbackthebattleships8933]

+WaveForceful yea i found articals on BBs that took way more damage then expected and still remained afloat , it really depends on how they are built and the strenght of the steel

[@WaveForceful]

Bring back the Battleships Yeah, just look at how much of a battering the Bismark took before it foundered.

[@bringbackthebattleships8933]

most of that was from , if i remember correctly 16" guns from nelson and rodney

[@crusader3012]

Forget reality; this is great visual stuff.
