As you’ve already noticed, one of the things that will be the constant aim of the PiercingMetal blog aspect is the support of our interests when it comes to film, toys and comic books. The first teaser clip from the upcoming Science Fiction film “Battleship” was recently unveiled, so let’s see what Universal Pictures has in store for us down below.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: I’ll admit I wasn’t sure what was going to happen with the clip that began with some romantic interlude but then we get into the mix with the disappointing sailor and the tough commander who suddenly seem to face a terrible threat. Maybe this will be solid entertainment, but I will wait until a better trailer comes to light before offering up too much insight. What did you think? Chime in down below because you can 😊
