We could use this movie in one of our laboratories... when there is a need to create a pure vacuum.

UK distributor Revolver Entertainment stuck this on a one-day-only release for the 23rd May - tomorrow! They've since listened to the British public complaining on their Facebook wall and Twitter and announced an extended release -

Quote:
the film will continue to play at selected cinemas for as long as demand dictates
Stating from tomorrow, at just 11 cinemas nationwide.



If I have to get it on DVD to watch it I will, and I'll be sourcing from another country's distributor so that Revolver don't get my cash.

just came from Ljubljana, we went and saw the movie

LOVED IT. If you forget for a moment that physics are being Michael Bay abused the movie is excellent. The gags are witty but require quite a knowledge of movie history. There's no toilet humor Non-Hollywood ending.
The battle scenes were excellent if not a bit short Managed to capture with camera movement the chaos of being in a middle of a firefight without making the wiewer sick.

So


leave the Newtons laws at home and enjoy the show

Can all you UK-ers please go to www.ironsky.net/demand and fill in the boxes for email address (must be validated!) and postcode to try and get this on a full UK release.

If anyone else wants to help then just guess some postcodes along the lines of DN35 0AQ (my nearest kino)

The closest cinemas showing it are about 70 - 80 miles away! No I haven't, yet.

I really like the Zeppelins so I'm going to try doing a 3D model of the one in Iron Sky.
I have a rough scale based on the Bismarck as the image seems to suggest.
I added all the Ships to get a size, but the bottom images seem to be the Birmarck silhouette, so I exported the Bismarck from SH3 to use as a scale.
I tried to find any images on the 'Net of the Zeppelins but those are really not that great.
If anyone has any shots? I'd like a link for playing around.
To bad I didn't save some files when I first started messing with the K-Ship.
I recall it was pretty huge before I learned about scaleing for SH Games.
I was way ahead of my time I guess?




So far I have this..........


My 'stupid' Goal is to do a SH3/4/5? meets Iron Sky thing.
I believe I can get the doors rolling up on the sides with a slight bit of effort.
The launching of the Haunebu may require a bit of work though.

Looking good as always, your work that is!

Doesn't sound like a stupid goal to me.

Probably for the best. It was baaad, and not in a good way.

Still, it was at least very silly. It kind of seemed like a porn movie that had forgotten to put the porn in. Syfy channel 'premiered' their rip-off version the other night. It was called 'Nazis Under Antarctica' or something like that and was, well, about Nazis under Antarctica. It was just nasty and didn't even have the saving grace of being silly fun.

Not bad for dumb style comedy/parody but gets boring as movie progresses.

Well I finally watched it last night and I loved it. It was exactly as I thought it'd be. My only regret was that I had to watch the first half on a 14" telly before the wife's friends went and I could use the proper telly.

Can't wait four the parodies of the Downfall parody.
