I have been idly keeping an eye on this production for quite some time now, and judging from the preview alone, here is my highly-qualified and unassailable opinion on the matter:
If its graphics are bad and its story sucks, there is pretty much no way for it to avoid being campy… which is just great. If its graphics are good (which they appear to almost be) and the story is at least understandable (I almost wrote "plausible", but never mind), this could potentially become the cult classic of 2012.
Either way, if this thing manages to make it to a screen near me (and it might, but I am not counting on it), you can bet I will be plopping my butt in a theater to see it. I mean, really, Nazis from the Moon, apparently driving space-Zeppelins and UFOs. If that does not automatically kick over your giggle switch, I almost do not want to know you.
(Stand by for "gun control" extremists to pop out of the woodwork decrying me as a neo-Nazi, white supremacist, or some other idiotic nonsense in three… two…)
I’d watch it.
… and I would probably enjoy it at that
.
…eh…
Oh, I’ve got to see this. Looks like the kind of movie that might be the more enjoyable the more it actually sucks.
I’m half tempted to leave a link to the preview at Joan Peterson’s blog just to see what her reaction would be.
Been following the progress of this project for a few years now. Look forward to seeing it on the big screen at the over-priced neighborhood multi-plex.
@ Miguel: Might be a generational thing – did you enjoy Mars Attacks?
@ Joel: Precisely!
@ Justin: Do let me know if you do – something tells me the reuslting eruption of mind-searing stupidity might be worth a screencap or two.
@ MAJ Mike: Overpriced indeed, and given that this movie was crowdsourced, doubly overpriced!
Being an retired ault phart allows me to go to the bargain matinee on weekdays. If I choose to go to a regualr screening, my ault phart discount costs the same as the regular matinee price.
I rate movies by how many machine guns and dead Nazis are presented. This one looks to be quite good.
Can’t wait! NEED a good shoot em up Now.
@ MAJ Mike: Best I can typically manage is weekend matinees, and that is still $7.50 in my area. Bit absurd, honestly, but I have lived where it is worse.
@ chris: And it might count as “good”-ish science fiction, too, which is something we have been lacking of late.
