Battleship? Seriously??

So as you may or may not have heard, Universal is making the battleship game into a movie. As you may or may not remember (see above image) this is the game where you use the little pegs and try to sink your opponents battleships by shouting out grid coordinates at your enemy such as, "G-4." And then your opponent, maybe Dad in a cool sweater vest, replies with a sly grin, "It's a hit." Ironically I don't think that's what fans will be saying when this tanker docks in the theater.

Seriously, have we run out of ideas, people? How about a film about Crazy Eights. Or perhaps a reality show called "Hide and Go Seek!" It's my understanding that Monopoly and Candyland are also being developed for the big screen so why not.

Well as they say, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em." So here's an idea I'm gonna pitch:
I think I'm going to try and secure the rights to "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" and develop that into a series for Showtime. It'll be the story of a down-on-his-luck ex-zoo donkey, by the name of Hank, who auditions for an adult film and becomes a big star. I see a video game, condom endorsements, perhaps a Carl's Jr. product tie-in...I don't know, the skies the limit.
Enough said? I should think so.
