Get A First Look at Space Nazis With The Trailer for ‘Iron Sky’

by Matt Raub, Jan 26 2012 // 9:00 AM

We’ve had some pretty interesting spec ideas come through the studio system in the past few years, from teenagers with telekenetic powers, to aliens living in the slums of Africa, and thieves that steal information from your dreams. All of those ideas, however, don’t come anywhere close to the sheer insanity of the idea that is “Nazis from Space”.

Sure, it sounds like a bad Lloyd Kaufman flick from the 70s, but consider this film Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow meets Close Encounters. Here’s the not-so-basic premise.

As World War II comes to an end in 1945, Hans Kammler and other German scientists make a breakthrough in anti-gravity research. From a secret base in the Antarctic, Nazi spaceships are sent to the ”dark side” of the Moon to establish the military base “Schwarze Sonne”. Their plan is to build a powerful fleet and return to conquer Earth. The film is set in the year 2018 when their descendants finally return.

The film is having its big premiere in Berlin, of all places, this November. So while we’ve got a bit of time before us here in the States get to see it,  you have got to check out the newest trailer for the film after the jump. Motherf*cking Space Nazis!!

Review: ‘Inglourious Basterds’

by Chris Ullrich, Aug 20 2009 // 10:00 AM

inglorious-basterds-brad-pitt

Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds is the WW II movie we’ve needed to see since the war ended. Some might consider it overlong or self-indulgent, but it showcases Tarantino’s filmmmaking skills at their finest and serves as an example of one filmmaker’s singular vision and immense storytelling craft. It is immensely entertaining, and at times brilliant, for its entire running time.

Those going into the film hoping to see lots of bloody action like some of the director’s other films are going to be somewhat disappointed. There is some violence and gore to be sure, but this is a war movie that barely features any of the war. Instead, Tarantino focuses on the people and a very personal story of revenge. This is what Inglourious Basterds is at its core: a revenge film.

From the first scene where we’re introduced to “Jew Hunter” Colonel Landa (brilliantly played by Christoph Waltz) and he lets young Shosanna Dreyfus go instead of killing her as he did with her family, the stage is set for Shoshana’s revenge on the man, and the Nazis, who took everything from her and so many others. This is not just Shoshanna’s personal tale of revenge, however, its the cathartic revenge for all Jews — and by extension all people — who suffered at the hands of the Nazis.

wolfenstein-gameLast time we talked about Activision’s updated version of the classic game Wolfenstein, we had the brand new E3 trailer for the game to bring you. As cool as the trailer was, of course it made us want more. Fortunately, as sometimes happens, you get just what you wish for — in the form of a brand new video graphic novel prequel for the game.

This video, which has never been seen before, is part one of a four part graphic novel series which tells the backstory of the new  Wolfenstein game. This “moving” graphic novel sets up the game and gives some insight into the characters and situations you may encounter. Its a very cool, clever and entertaining way to promote a video game and after seeing it, I can’t wait for the next three parts.

Their brand new website (with a very catchy background theme) went live earlier this week, and now three clips of the film have hit the net.

The first is a dialog between Colonel Hans Landa and Frederick Zoller (Christopher Waltz and Dan Brhl, respectively) in which Landa discusses his feeling on members of the Jewish faith.
