Glass Cannon/Film

Examples of Glass Cannons in Film include:

The film Battleship correctly shows that modern-day missile destroyers are this. They carry lots of missiles and the Aegis system allows them to Macross Missile Massacre an enemy, but they lack any real armor to protect them from return fire. The CIWS guns do an admirable job trying to protect the ships from the alien attack, but the enemy employs the More Dakka tactic to overwhelm the defenses. On the other hand, the mothballed battleship Missouri, completed during the height of World War II and protected by tons (literally) of armor, and being only slightly slower than the missile destroyers, is a Lightning Bruiser, able to take a punch as well as give.
