[h2]Trailer had 5 million views in six days.[/h2]
Iron Sky has closed further deals for Stealth Media in Berlin, led by a North American deal with Entertainment One.
For Israel, the film has now sold to Shoval.
The trailer for the film, about Nazis on the moon, released on YouTube during the Berlinale, has now seen more than five million views in six days. That makes the trailer more popular than those for Hollywood blockbusters. [i]“It feels great to beat these films that have already spent more on marketing that the entire budget of Iron Sky. I see it as a sign of democratisation of entertainment, where the internet means a Finnish film can capture the interest of the viewing public. This is a victory to all European and independent filmmakers, and it’s all thanks to our active online community”[/i] says director Timo Vuorensola.
He added: [i]“Iron Sky is for sure an audience film; we’ve been ending every screening here in Berlin with huge ovations, and the theaters are packed.”[/i]
The film next travels to SXSW before heading to Tampere, Finland.
Iron Sky marches to theaters in April 2012.
The world sales is handled by Stealth Media Group.[/quote]

[b]OH, HELL YES![/b]
Fuck yes
But from the looks of it now, it's either going to be awesome or a big piece of shit, with no middle ground
Most of the reviews said it was terrible so I'll just wait for a cheap dvd release.
I think this would have been awesome as a serious film
I really want to fucking watch this now. :v:

They just [I]had[/I] to get Sarah Palin in there, didn't they?
Machines we are sending to the skies
Above us all
And leave behind those who do nоt know
Of the final day
We leave in sleep those who do nоt know
and we leave at dawn
We are driven by the B-machine
That never stops
I love the music.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE UK RELEASE

Most? Don't think so, almost all German reviews give it higher than 7/10, in Europe it had very positive reaction. American reviews on the other hand are saying that it's bad.
Maybe because they're pro-zionists who fear the return of the nazis.
As cool as this movie looks, I just hope it won't be complete and utter shit.
This will be awesome.
yeah i've been following the production for some time now (actually found out about it on fp) and i have to say the trailer looks pretty awesome, i'm excited to see how this film'll turn out
I just hope it won't end with lame "Nazis all died, earth is safe, huzzah!" bullshit ending.

Iron Sky is coming to UK, Revolver Entertainment is handling the UK distribution of the film.

You and I know that it probably will. It's post 9/11 and if you want to make money on the film market, America has to win.
For people who don't know about this promising cinematic piece:

I don't think it's physically possible for these guys to make anything too serious

Knowing them, this won't be the case :v:

Not enough explosions and [I]over-the-top[/I] drama for their taste.
That looks so freakin' awesome its unreal.
I'll be seeing martin at the chicago premiere
Why is this film so special it gets so much coverage?
this looks interesting but many of these movies that go for a "super outlandish" premise don't do too well because they end up going over the line where it stops being funny and just starts being kind of dumb
not gonna hold my breath for this but i'll still probably end up seeing it

#1: awesome premise
#2: it's indie
#3: sexy concept art and special effects

thing is they don't take themselves seriously since the start
neither did machete and that was one of the most disappointing films i'd ever been hyped for

Just like how people on the internet actually review things!

this is how all media is for me
for me it's all mostly good
[QUOTE=E1025;34726127]Why is this film so special it gets so much coverage?[/QUOTE]
It's completely indie. They've spent years trying to get it up off the ground.
[QUOTE=E1025;34726127]Why is this film so special it gets so much coverage?[/QUOTE]
because its the kind of tongue-in-cheek retro genre-fiction kitsch that film nerds jizz over.
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;34724726]Most of the reviews said it was terrible so I'll just wait for a cheap dvd release.[/QUOTE]
Actually
[quote=The Guardian]It's not terrible, by any means: just not nearly as funny or cruel as its killer premise suggests.[/quote]
