Tell Us About Sci-Fi Blogs – Win Iron Sky Merchandise!

March 16th, 2010 by Janos Honkonen

We in the Iron Sky project are very active net users, and in addition to Twitter, Facebook and other social media we are very interested in good old blogs. When it comes to Iron Sky as a movie project, we’d like to reach out to more scifi, movie and fandom bloggers all around the world in the form of official press releases, a little less official new info about the movie, competitions and so on.

Flaming sun

The problem is how to find the biggest and the best movie or scifi blogs in non-English speaking areas of the world. Our solution to this is to make a little competition about it, and here’s how it goes:

Tell us about your favourite blog about movies, science fiction, technology or general geekery you think would be interested in news about a project like Iron Sky. We are especially interested in blogs from the non-English speaking areas of the world, but feel free to suggest us blogs in English too. The main content of the blog should be about movies, scifi or such.

The competition will run ’till the 31th of March. From everybody who has suggested a blog we will randomly choose three winners, who will be rewarded Iron Sky merchandise for their efforts (dog tags, posters & such). Also, from all the blogs that were recommended we will choose one, who will get an exclusive video interview from Timo and Samuli! The blogger can send us the questions, and we will film and edit the interview so it’s ready to be published!

This is a great chance for you to get more visibility for your favourite blog and to help us get out the word about Iron Sky!

Looking for Extras for Iron Sky promo/tests shoot in Tampere

March 16th, 2010 by Janos Honkonen

Before we’re able to shoot Iron Sky, we need to do some tests. You know, to determine how we’re going to shoot the film, what kind of look and feel we’ll end up having with it and what kind of requirements there are for the equipment, lighting, green screens and post production there are that we can prepare for.

For this, we’re shooting one day of tests in Tampere with the core crew of Iron Sky on March 23rd (that’s Tuesday) from 10:00 onward, and we need extras to show up fo the shootings. We’ll need 10 people marching in Nazi boots – do you think you’re up for it? We’re looking for men in a generally good, “militaristic” condition (you don’t need to be an athlete, but you should be reasonably fit), and who are able to march.

You should prepare to spend the whole day at the shootings.

If you are interested, fill out the personal information form in here and we’ll get back to you!

Iron Sky is back on Facebook!

February 2nd, 2010 by Jarmo Puskala

The Iron Sky fan page is back on Facebook! Just a little while ago I received the following email from “The Facebook Team”:

Hi Jarmo,
This problem should now be resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience, and enjoy the site. If you have any further questions, please visit our Help Center at the following address:

That’s pretty much all, well apart from the url and a signature at the bottom. So there isn’t any explanation why the page was originally removed. Hopefully this won’t happen again.

However, I doubt we’d be seeing our page anytime soon if it wasn’t for you! Almost a thousand of you joined the group demanding Iron Sky back in just a few hours! So a huge thank you from us is in order to all of our fans who spread the word!
