Looks interesting & i might just see it, but it seems more of the type to be a Frank Miller comic book. All the elements are there: ridiculous sci- fi, caricature of famous political figure, fixation with Nazis, etc. I really would rather read this as a "graphic novel" than as a movie.

They've only adjusted a few elements of the original true story, you know, for Hollywood.  But otherwise it looks good.  An improvement on the History Channel's documentary, at least.

Looks Tarantino-ish, to me.

It's not a Hollywood production, it's a Finnish production.

Hollywood, Bollywood, Ölliiyööd, it's all the same in the end.  They took a true story, changed a few superficial details for dramatic effect, and voila.  That's how movies are made.

Look, we all know from the history Channel that Hitler knew aliens (since they built everything). That part makes perfect sense. But President Palin?

When I clicked on the 1st trailer, I actually thought this would be a serious Michael Bay/Roland Emmerich-like movie and not a parody.

In the sense of "they examined the Voyager probe, saw Hitler on that disc that had all the human information on it and then the aliens all became Nazis, made their way to Earth and finished what Hitler couldn't do". LOL.

Why is "Palin" speaking in an extremely lame attempt at a Southern accent?

If most people in foreign countries really believe Palin could ever be elected President that's pretty embarrassing. Not any more stupid than many things a majority of Americans believe about other countries granted, but still...

Of course whoever made this clearly doesn't know too much about Palin if they're giving her a southern accent.

Yeah, it really takes away from the realism of the movie.

It looks like it actually could have been an entertaining movie if they hadn't decided to make Sarah Palin president of the United States for no reason at all, other than possibly snobbish Euro-style anti-Americanism.

Palin as POTUS is probably intended as a part of the parody. Who else should they pick as US President in 2018 ? Newt Gingrich ? Who in the end turns out to be a collaborateur of the Moon Nazis ?

Most movies with a fictional president just go with a generic middle aged white guy. Would work best here too.

Palin being President is the best part about this movie. All movies will have Palin as President from now on.

Let me get this straight:

Futuristic Super-Nazis who come from the Dark Side of the Moon plan to invade the United States of America in 2018 and the only person who can stop them is President Sarah Palin?

I can't accurately describe my feelings of awe at these brave filmmakers.

In that case, why does Palin have an extremely exaggerated Southern accent? She's not from the South, has never lived there, and her Alaska accent is one of her most distinctive features. It would be like if the movie had Dubya as president and had him talking like Donald Trump.
