I literally stood up and shouted "H#!! Yeah!" the first time I saw this...but it's kinda hard not to pick apart. Maybe the Mighty Mo' is kept in a "mothballed" condition, and it's not completely unbelievable that there "may" be enough fuel onboard/transferable from nearby to get her underway. Still, I find it impossible that a floating museum would have even a single live round on board (unless some crafty old Gunner's Mate had been very long-sighted), and I'd bet just about anything that any operational electronics/systems would've been cannibalized over the years. Finally, the odds that a group of old salts would suddenly materialize on deck, ready to go...are a bit long.

But...

...I'll warrant that if they did, and if the dang thing could make revolutions, they'd be the ones to make it happen.
