Battleship (2012)
1 trivia entry
Directed by: Peter Berg
Starring: Liam Neeson, Alexander Skarsgard, Brooklyn Decker, Rihanna
Factual error: After the Missouri knocks the shield down, the admiral orders all aircraft launched, but the flight deck is shown in sailing transport mode, not flight readiness. Would have taken an hour or more to clear the deck and launch.
Cal Zapata: If there is intelligent life out there and they come here, it's going to be like Columbus and the Indians, only we're the Indians.
Question: Are there any battleships still in service within the U. S. Navy, or have they all been scrapped or turned into floating museums?
Answer: No. The last battleship was stricken from the Naval Vessel Register and decommissioned in 2006.

Suggested correction: It's a non issue, it was a massive international naval exercise, Good chance of more than one carrier participating. In fact, every picture of an actual rimpac exercise has multiple carriers visible. Just because 1 carrier isn't in flight readiness mode doesn't mean that others aren't. Might explain why he ordered every plane in the air but there's what? Only 3 that actually save Mighty Mo.
True there may been more carriers but you are being attacked and invaded no flag officer would leave his deck cluttered they would be at battle stations for sure.
