There's A Reason We've Never Gone Back To The Moon

[Your Usual Table]

Because it's filled with aliens or the ghosts of Cosmonauts from a secret Soviet Moon landing, apparently

Another entry in the Found Footage genre. The sad thing about all this? I'm still probably going to see it.

Looks quite good, that.

I'm holding out for Iron Sky myself.

In 1945 The Nazis Went To The Moon. In 2018 They Are Coming Back.

That (Iron Sky) was BRILLIANT. Here's a tenner.

Ha ha! I love the glimpse of a Luftwaffe insignia on the bottom of the saucer as it takes off.

But "Get ready to kick some Nazi arse!" It can't be 'arse', surely ... must be 'ass'(?)

I may be going to see Iron Sky on Friday. I'll report back if I do — surprisingly it seems to be in several German cinemas.

But I know it's never going to be as good as the (original) trailer.

Laibach have done the soundtrack to 'Iron Sky'. They're going to be playing it - or part of it, at least - at their Tate Modern gig that I'm going to on the 14th.

The Graun is unimpressed.

After the big build-up: the crash. Arguably the most anticipated film of this year's Berlinale, the Nazis-in-space comedy Iron Sky turned out to be one giant damp squib. It's not terrible, by any means: just not nearly as funny or cruel as its killer premise suggests. The poster tagline, one of the all-time greats, bears repeating: "In 1945, the Nazis went to the moon. In 2018, they are coming back." But Finnish director Timo Vuorensola and producer Samuli Torssonen simply don't deliver.

Mark Kermode has covered Iron Sky in his BBC blogs, and saw it at Berlin Film Festival.

Apollo 18 did look good from the trailer, didn't it? It's not, it's really poor, drags like anything. Which is impressive for an 86 minute film.
