How the hell did we end up with Sarah Palin as president?


The same way we ended up with Nazi's on the moon?

Silver Crusade

I would rather have Nazis on the moon.


That goes without saying. ;)

A) It's not clear that was Palin.

B) Thanks for being political trolls.

C) PMG or Ross, could you just go ahead and delete this thread, since we obviously can't enjoy some good, old-fashioned, humor without somebody trying to bring f%#!ing politics into it.


@Aberzombie:

A) It's definitely supposed to be Sarah Palin

B) not trying to troll, just making jokes

I'm pretty stoked for this. Looks big budget too! Anyone know where it was made?

I have heard that it was mad in either Finland or Norway but I am not sure. The reported budget was 5.7 million Euros.


WooHoo.....This is going to be a popcorn blast of a movie to see....can't wait...can't wait...

There is no justice in the world if this doesn't end up movie of the year.

Aberzombie - I can understand with election time in the US getting closer and the vitriol being sprayed by people who should be working together to fix their countries problems reaching levels of untold stupidity... that politics and political jokes can grate on the nerves.

Think about this from a German perspective this is an out and out Political comedy mocking a terrible period of their history.....the Politics in Germany is such that movies and books about Nazis are strictly regulated. Acting in anything Nazi related can destroy your career.

Yet they are showing this movie in Berlin so they can laugh at the stupidity of politics.

Edit:removed a clarification as it was not necessary

Liberty's Edge

Anyone else notice the earth ship is named USS George HW Bush?

Not sure if that is suposted to be Palin, in the trailer she says y'all and has a bit of a southern accent. Palin is not from the south.

I am willing to bet that it at least gets a nod from the Golden Globes.

It's going to be a lot of fun to say the least.

This movie was made by people from Finnland, Germany and Australia - they in general would not know or care about the regional variation in accents as much as you would be able to tell me the difference in accents between somebody from Wagga Wagga and Avalon.

We can tell when Hollywood uses English or kiwi actors to play Australians or worse watch the Great Escape and pick the Australian character being played by the American actor.

As sad as it may sound for the rest of the world, there are only 3 accents in the US
. They are New York, Californian and Cowboy. Palin sounds like a cowboy to the rest of the world.

You mean James Coburn? He should really have been playing a dutchman anyways... At least you guys got mentioned, the hundred or so canucks who dug the tunnels got edited out :)


Yeh Coburn.... He was a badass anyway so I didnt much.

The woman playing the PotUS is a Kiwi - southern/cowboy is probably easiest for her to do.

I am so bad at regional US accents I originally thought Fargo was set in Canada....

Given its proximity near the Canadian border, that's actually a fair assessment of dialect. I'm a U.S. citizen and I thought it sounded Canadian.

Then again, I also have only 40% of my hearing, wear hearing aids, and rely on lip reading, so I'm probably not the best to judge this. :)

I'm betting for a sweep at the Razzies.

It would only be Razzie worthy if it had a hollywood A-lister on the billing...

I think this film will be hilarious. I hope it throws a jab or two at U.S. Militantism and Empire. It'll be interesting to hold up a political mirror and giggle at the atrociousness of it all.

Looked pretty clear from the trailer that there's a setup for asking the question, "Who's worse? The US or Space Nazis from the Moon?"

I'd be insulted, if not for a couple things.

First of all, 'space nazis' are such a trope. However, since these are ACTUAL Space Nazis... some reason I find that refreshing. I'm sure this will be awesome tongue-in-cheek fun.

Second of all, let those Oceanic and European gits tease and jab all they like. They're just envious of America and that's the best they can come up with to make fun. They're still stuck living in Oceania and Europe ;)

Liberty's Edge

Envious... or scared? I'll try not to make this into a political thread, but the rulers of this country (U.S.) still have a lot to account for in the international community.


This looks rather good!
It'll be interesting to see if they can match the quality of the trailer with the actual movie!


Oh yep Oceania is such a terrible place..... Sandy beaches, snow capped mountains, fun relaxed atmosphere, great economy (what GFC), great food.... Good looking men and women... terrible terrible Oceania oh please please rescue me from my horrible life.


Envious of America?

Which part?


Ugh. Was gonna post, but now hiding. Laterz!

For starters, the idea that we could have space battleships, as evidenced at 1:00 in the trailer.

If it wasn't for our hyper-militarism, you hobbits would be crushed under the jackboot of Space Nazis, and you resent it!

Sovereign Court

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that moon; you need me on that moon.


ARE WE CLEAR?


Who's seen the film or planning to see the film then? I hear it's out in the US this week. Saw it in Europe and it's a great special effects action blast!

Apparently it was a massive hit in the US, because it does parody everyone really. There's a free to view prequel comic book on the official site that tells the story of how the Nazi's left Earth www.ironsky.net

I saw it a while ago. Thought it was fantastic. The guys I saw it with thought it was the worst thing ever. I suspect they are just upset that the Nazi

Or maybe they just have no sense of humour. It's a lot more... silly than I'd expected, but I liked that.
