As proof I submit the following excerpt from a recent email, sent to a particular circle of friends I refer to mentally as The Geek Squad (and yes, I definitely include myself in that moniker). This is from Sara, party-giver (who is not to be confused with Sarah, party-givee:)
So there’s this movie out. You might have heard of it. It has a full movie budget, and is about space nazis.
Space. Nazis.
Wait, space nazis aren’t your cup of teadenfreuden?
Well screw you, space nazis sounds amazing.
Okay, wait, no, I accept that some people might not be into space Hitler. I guess. FINE.
We also have Australian alien zombie fish.
Oh yeah. You heard me.
Case closed.
P.S. It should go without saying that the Nazis are the bad guys. Also? They are on the dark side of the moon. Because where else would Nazis be?! Welcome to the weird and wonderful magic that is Bad Movie Night:)
P.P.S. Wait, even better. There is an article about the movie Iron Sky in The Economist, highlighting the crowdsourced and social media dimensions of progressive independent filmmaking. Also? Space Nazis!
