IRON SKYIn 1945 the Nazis went to the Moon. In 2018, they are coming back.A two-and-a-half minute teaser for the dark science fiction comedy short Iron Sky was released today at www.ironsky.net. Check it out ...it looks quite good I think in a weird way!! Iron Sky will be the second film by the creators of Star Wreck, the most popular Internet feature film of all time, as well as the most popular Finnish film ever. Over 8 million people have downloaded Star Wreck since its free Internet release in 2005. The film was eventually distributed by Universal Pictures as a premium DVD. Iron Sky is a pitch-black science fiction comedy that holds nothing sacred. It combines the dry irony of Dr. Strangelove with the visual style of invasion films such as Independence Day. Finns are known for their dark wit, perhaps due to their history successively under the oppressive thumb of Sweden, Russia, and the Nazis. Star Wreck repeatedly skewered Russia (and was wildly successful there), and Iron Sky continues in the same vein of mocking totalitarianism. Says director Timo Vuorensola: “Iron Sky is a story about conformity: those who want to conform, those who want to make others conform, and those who refuse to conform.” |

I don't know about it being a comedy Luc but I think it would make a great scifi movie! I like the looks of it and the storyline too and I'd buy a DVD of it! |
