For those who don’t know, Iron Sky is an alternate history sci-fi comedy movie being produced by an independent shop somewhere in Europe. The premise is that the Nazis secretly colonized the moon before the end of WWII and now are planning on invading the Earth. Personally, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of this thing ever since I first heard about it, and with the release date only around a month away they’ve leaked the first 4 minutes of the film. At the very least it’s guaranteed to be better than the new Ghost Rider movie…
(RF: They use guns in the video, it’s fair game! So there!)
Any excuse for Hollywood to wave the Nazis at us again.
not Hollywood. The exact opposite. It’s a fan-funded independent production from Finland.
These are the same guys that made Star Wreck: In the Perkinning, one the most hilarious independant films I’ve ever seen. They did the whole thing with volunteers and cheap digital cameras.
Reminds me of Rocket Ship Galileo by Robet Heinlein
and there darn well better be a rockship called “Gallileo” somewhere, or I’ll be quite put out. Okay, it was his weakest juveniles, but it was still RAH.
+1
I hate Moon Nazis…
When will this be coming to the US?
It has a couple of real cutie patootie’s in it…plus the one and only Udo Keir (you will instantly recognize him from a gazillion bad guy roles) !
Udo Kier’s a definite plus.
I love how you can hear explosions in the vacuum of space.
And what about RPG’ing the lunar module knocked the astronaut off his feet? 🙂
Yep, that too. Good catch.
I wondered about that too. There would be no atmosphere to propagate a shock wave but there would be a great deal of energy released from the explosion. That would be in the form of high speed gases that might lose little energy not having to pass through an atmosphere.
Someone will have to sneak a block of C4 on the next moon trip. Should be more interesting then a golf shot.
If an explosion has no effect in space then how did we get to the moon?
Also, the puttering of an ICE on that motorcycle in the vacuum of space.. not to mention completely missing the giant strip-mine on the way down that they landed within a few hundred yards of.
This movie looks to be full of derp, but in a good way.. kinda like that Battleship movie that’s on its way. Good brainless entertainment, both of them.
It will never top “Mars Needs Women.” Now that was sci-fi at its best.
Over on BoingBoing, where you’d think people would know better, folks keep asking “how’d they bring enough food for 70 years”, “how’d they survive low gravity”, etc. etc.
Folks, it’s a movie about Nazis on the _moon_. To quote a wise man “If you’re wondering how he eats and breathes and other science facts (la-la-la), Just repeat to yourself, “It’s just a show, I should really just relax…”
That also applies to RPGs and ice and other stuff.
I wonder which country has more Hitler on TV, America or Israel? Seriously air something besides WW2 and junk-men! *glares at History Channel executive*
Dude – you just cannot watch the Nazis getting their asses kicked often enough.

where’s that “like” button 😉
Sky Captain and The World Of Tomorrow?
Flash Gordon versus the Nazis From Outer Space?
Spock in an SS Uniform with a Nazi Starship?
barf, next please.
moonbase nazis? sweet! I’ll see it right after Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Slayer!
Well there was a vampire named Habeus Corpus…
I just saw the trailer for Abe Lincoln killing vampires. HOLY CRAP! I can’t wait to not see that.
Nazi’s I hate those guys.
Yeah, I’m waiting for it, too. The rule is simple. Don’t take it seriously, take it on it own terms. Have fun.
It’s all just a red herring to divert attention from the REAL secret Nazi base in Antarctica called Neuschwabenland started in 1938 and constructed throughout WW2. Pro-German Argentina and Apartheid South Africa were the staging points. The U-530 and U-977 delivered their last cargoes to Antarctica then were turned over to the Allies completely empty. Contact with the Grays was initiated in 1933 and the Bavarian Satanic cults had/have dealings with the Reptilians from Alpha draconis. I thought you guys already knew all this.
I’m going to start reading about this as soon as I get done figuring out that Timecube website.
Looks entertaining to me. I love “out there” sci-fi!
Looks a lot better than Ghost Rider 2.
