wonder how much they will use the Battleship? The Battleship was used to shoot some footage for the movie Under Siege in the early 90's.

also shot during the summer if I remember right.

I guess they decided not to shoot it in Indianapolis because of that whole RFRA thing?

See Armageddon and Deep Impact (although fiction).

Also, too bad Robert Shaw is dead. Would have been great to have him make a cameo of some sort.

Except for that huge ship they were on, and the entire movie set on.

Other than that.

I worked for the dive shop that provided all of the scuba gear for that movie - even met Segal.

If you haven't already, read the book version of this event--In Harm's Way.

Incredible story.
