Iron Sky

looking forward to seeing it myself.
As an aside, just re-read Anthony Beevor's incredible book about the fall of Berlin 1945 and really some of the Nazi's were still holding out for that miracle weapon Hitler promised them after the V1/V2 etc. Even when the Red Army were kilometres away. Kept some of them fighting, oh, and the threat of instant execution should you even try and desert. Estimated between 10-40,000 Axis (German/Ukraine/Polish/etc) soldiers were killed in the last few months of the war by own forces as accused of leaving the front.
All pales into insignificance though when you look at how "Uncle Joe Stalin' practiced monumental genocide, with no compunction about Rus or them.
Sobering reading.
