Im sure it wasnt in the movies budget to get the real deal.

The part of the film with the Bug in it was filmed in an Australian sound stage--maybe the Auz members know more about the car.

Anybody seen this yet.
Ive yet to see it advertised at ANY movie theater....
Hopefully I'll find it on a DVD.... someday.

I've seen the movie few days ago here in Germany.
But I doubt that it'll be released in the US as it's far more anti american than anti Nazi, to be honest. But all in all good fun. The film starts very promising and interesting,, but in the end it gets too ridiculous.

You can buy the movie poster directly from iron sky's website now.... as well as pre-order the DVD & BD (unless you know someone in Finland and will ship it to you now)...

Kinda of funny in the IMDB they actually give it 3 stars!... must be one of those actually ironic type "fun" movies maybe... The trailers reminds the things Mel Brooks used to put out... as dry as they were they wound up being timeless classics. :lol:

Iron sky website, just navigate to the store ..

Probably because this isn't the split or oval Beetle forum, no one has analyzed every shot of the Beetle to figure out what year it is. But it is def not a '45. Vent windows (Oct '52 and newer) and oval horn grills make it at least an early oval. Anyone have any other screenshots/pics?

again..... Progressive refinements... :D.

Look at the push- button door handles and the shape of the windshield. This bug is not a real split or even an oval.

Awesome in it's b-movieness and badness. Anyone who went into this film with high expectations or to be so anal as to pick apart if the car was really a KDF needs to really take a more relaxed look at life.

All in all, funny if you don't really expect Oscar winning type things from it. Think "Grindhouse" or "Black Dynamite" and you will be pretty happy with it.

Of course I have movies in my collection like "Rubber", "Black Sheep"( NOT Chris Farley) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Sheep_%282007_film%29 and "Frankenhooker" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankenhooker

I had a chace to view this.... It was.... to say the least interesting.
As always... when I watch a movie. I checked reality at the door, so I can try to and enjoy it.
If the the leading German lady, (Julia Dietze), wasnt so cute, it would have mad it really bad...
I agee, typical out there Scifi, film, so dont expect much.
It has lots of poking fun at the USA.

Agree: Julia was pretty cute, even in uniform.
