Iron Sky is a independent Finnish-German-Australian black scifi comedy, where the Nazis left for the Moon in 1945, and in 2018 they are coming back.

Iron Sky is known for its close participation with the audience and followers, and being very active on the net and the social media. Iron Sky Signal videos are one of the ways for the filmmakers to give their followers a peek behind the scenes of an indie movie project filmed in three countries. Every month the team publishes one or two Iron Sky Signal videos, in addition to which the director Timo Vuorensola publishes Director’s Diaries, short video clips filmed on the road with a cellphone.

This movie looks like it could be really cool, or fall flat on it’s face. Either way, I think I’ll have to see it in the theaters.

YAWN…

Thanks to megaraptor18 for the find.

Thanks to Megaraptor for the link. This looks like an Austin Powers type movie. So it could go either way…

For my money, this looks like a nice popcorn film – just enough to be entertained and then you forget about it as soon as you walk out the theater…

I don’t care what anyone says or thinks about this movie. This is a “Must See” for yours truly!

This looks like a cool movie that will make about $120 million, and I won’t see until it comes to cable.
