(T)Raumschiff Surprise - Periode 1

This movie came out in 2004 in Germany. It's a parody of Star Wars and Star Trek, along with other movies. it reminds me of Star Wreck.

As far as I know, there has never been released a version of the film with English subtitles. You can watch the film, on the web, with Chinese subtitles, at: www.YouKu.com. However, it is slow to load. If you want subtitles in English, you can find them at: www.allsubs.org.

Here is a short version of the film. I found clips of it on YouTube, and got the text from allsubs.org.

The film starts off with the song “Life is So Sad” by Paulina Jones. Note: this video is not from the movie.



The Mars attack fleet.

Regulator Rogul: Once upon a time our ancestors came from Earth to colonize Mars. Today we return to Earth to once and for all annilihate its petty inhabitants! Jens, my trusty disciple, our vision has come true.

Earth is ours now!

The council on Earth is very worried.

Queen Metapha, we are defenseless.

The attack met us unprepared. Our fleet has been destroyed.

They decide to use time travel. They go back in time and prevent the colonization of Mars. However, time travel has never been tested. So, they will send the Surprise crew.

The next video shows us the Surprise crew.

'Cause we're so pretty and so canny
and so slim and so slender
We'll be Miss Waikiki!

And shower to the left!
And shower to the right!
And don't forget the soap!

One more time!
And five, six, seven, eight
Five, six, seven, eight
And touch and push!

And touch and push!
And towel to the left!
And towel to the right!
And don't forget the willy!

Dry the willy to the beat!

The Earth Council

You cannot be serious!

They are mankind's last hope.

Or are there any volunteers?

Are you saying that these..these people are the only ones...who can save the world?

If you really want to know, senator Eric.

Yes!

We have no idea where they are. No word from them in years!

Then we have to find them, don't we?

There they are!

How could they bear away this far?

Hail them!

There are in the back of beyond!

I bet.

The Surprise

Captain's log no. 1 of our Traumschiff Surprise, Captain Kork. It's way too chilly for this stardate. All 40 men of my crew are in good health. Only two have a slight cold. Guenther has blackboard duty for this week. I am worried that in five months from now we'll run out of stamps. Got to do something about that. Later. Today we have our yearly health check. Looking forward to having my temperature taken. If all is fine, I'll have a nice cutlet with french fries and ketchup, a small mixed salad and a large root beer.

The same fagging every year!

The Honolulu bathing season starts soon!

You really need a flawless waistline if you want to be Miss Waikiki!

But it's tough on my intervertebral discs.

Do Vulcanettes even have intervertebral discs?

None of yours, you dumb cow!

He's not even a purebred Vulcanette.

Oh, I am!

No, you're a mongrel!

I am a Vulcanette Vulgaris. We can live for up to 400 years...because we are a type of Galapagos turtle!

And what are you?

I'm the captain.

You just screwed your way up!

And your point is...?

Galapagos turtle! That's why you're so slow!

And you have a baboon's ass!

Oh dear...

So?

Your values are disastrous, as always.

Phone rings.

This is Groans. What's up? Someone from Earth, for the captain.

I'm not here.

He's not here.

Tell Mr. Nasi to turn on the answering machine.

Got it? Groans out.

Let's go! Get ready for the hovering test.

Yes!

Back at the council.

There are certain difficulties in contacting the Surprise.

But you have their coordinates!

Yes, but... there's just the machine.

What? What?

They're available from Monday through Friday from 4 to 5 pm.

I don't believe it. Get these jerks NOW! There's not much time left!

Aye, Sir!

Wonder what those guys are doing up there?

Back on the Starship Surprise.

Picking nose and swinging balls!

Picking nose and swinging balls!

Starting today it's push-ups and knee bends!

Whatever.

Commencing hovering test.

Jeez, those asses won't move a bit!

Oh my, now what do we have here?

I better put this away before the captain bags it.

Captain, why aren't we hovering yet?

Doc, why aren't we hovering yet?

Cheese cake and chocolates all the time! You're too fat to be weightless!

I used to be in the hovering club!

I was the youngest ever in the hovering marathon!

I made my license in freestyle hovering when I was 12, and at the age of 14...

I won the Gold Star at the national youth hovering contest in Swabia! Yessir!

I am Hermes, messenger of the Gods!

Adieu!

Did you know he's got cellulitis?

Where?

Honestly! Up in his room.

Just wait, I'll get you yet!

Yes! I'm hovering!

Mr. Smock, come up here! It's wonderful up here!

I can't!

He can't.

C'mon, flat out, doc!

Is that all you got?

Geez, really!

I just can't get that fat Vulcanette up!



On the deck of the starship.

Mr. Nasi, what's the situation?

Ha, Captain...
(continues in Kantonese)



They get a message to return to Earth immediately. However, their warp drive (mutt speed) is not working. It has pug damage, whatever that is. They decide to catch a cab.

And what's that?

That's Jutta. My reading lamp.

It's saved my life before.

What kind of junker is that?

Bargaining again, huh?

I like it.

Who of you ordered a cab?



In the cab.

You cooing?

What?

You're cooing over him!

No, I'm not.

Then let him coo a little.

Shut up and look out the window.

So, where to?

Earth. City of Government.

Whoops! That'll be expensive.

Why's that?

Right now, it'd be easier to give someone plastic surgery during an earthquake than to arrive there in one piece. They're firing heavy ordnance down there.

Oh yes, life vests and parachutes should be somewhere below that seat.

Maybe we should get out of here?

He's just boasting.

No problem. Just fly. I am expected by the government.

My name is Captain Kork. Capricorn.

And I am Hermes. Messenger of the Gods.

And what is your name?

My name is Rock.

Soft- or Hard Rock?

Grab onto something!

Yes!

You can now buy free goods. Anyone care for some music?

Sure!



They arrive at the planet, and are fired upon by the Martians. Here’s a good place for the music video “Space Taxi” by Stefan Raab.



The Surprise crew and Rock, the taxi driver, show up at the Earth council.

In this video, rock dreams about the Queen.

Chocolate?

Nooo!

It's bitter chocolate by Rosetto.

It's the brand with the Rosetto-Moor.

I'm...not ready for that.



The council tells of their plan:

300 years ago, on July 22nd, 2004 at precisely 5.35 pm, a UFO crashed into the desert of Nevada. In that UFO, our scientists found information from a galaxy far far away. It was only with that knowledge that we were able to colonize Mars.

We could prevent the colonization of Mars and thus, this war, by traveling into the year 2004...and destroying implied UFO.

However, the bad guys arrive. Two of the Surprise crew, the Queen, and Rock, leave on the time machine.


I am glad to see you, Lord Shawl.

Boot licker.

What's that?

Rosetto's bitter chocolate.

It's the brand with the Rosetto-Moor.

Thanks. And exit!

Aye, Sir!

The government building of the Earth alliance was successfully taken over.

Excellent!

All politicians were locked into the washhouse.

Perfect.

Queen Metapha was able to escape with a time machine.

What? How could you let that happen, asshole?

Yes. You're right. But we were able to seize the manual of the time machine.

Goooood.

I'm going to make a phone call.



They end up in July 22nd, 1304.

Jens follows them, in this video.


Jens!

Master?

There is something you need to know.

Whassup?

Roughly 30 years ago a baby came along, you know. Without sock and without shoe. And that, dear Jens, was you.

You lost me, my Regulator.

I... am... your father!

Okay. You can count on me, daddy! Bye!



They are captured. In these two videos, the King courts the Queen.

By the way, the Lady's dress suits you remarkably well.

She wore it just yesterday while being busy with the jester.

You have a wife?

I had.

Where is she now?

Hanging outside.

You hanged her outside? Why?

We have no gallows in here.

Two pizzas No. 33 for William the Endmost!

To the Knight of Behynde! Cheers!





Spuck and Rock talk.

I don't think I will ever marry.

Neither would I anymore. My ex-wife took everything.

My house, my dog, my job...even my hole puncher.

Oh my, now you can't even file anything away!

Oh well. Let me show you something.

My little pink pal stayed with me.

Oh, you little piggy you!

Say, can I touch that?

Sure.

Oh my, it's all shriveled up!

Well, it's been in there for a while.

Yeah, I can see that.

Come, push it.

I'd like to have one myself.

Come on, push it harder.

My, where is it? My, what's it doing? My, there it is!

I don't want to make it burst.

It won't. My dog used to chew on it.



Next, we have some jousting. The next video is not from the movie.



They manage to escape, to the Wild West.

Maybe I'll take him on a trip to Mykonos with him next year!

I'm not giving you a holiday.

Sheriff Shorty? I thought you'd only arrive tomorrow. Anyway. Good luck!

And you're taller than I expected!

And which one is the sheriff?

The one with the star, Jim.

I'll just save the world without you!

Ha, you can't!

Yes I can.

No you can't.

Yes I can.

No you can't.

Yes I can.

No you can't.

Yes I can.

No you can't.

I don't believe this.

No you can't.

I have the Swiss laser!

You sly Vulcanette cow!

Hey, are you nuts?

I thought Shorty was shorter last time we met him.

Well, it's been what, 10 years? He could have grown.



They escape to the right time, finally. And find the UFO.

Gee, what a cute thingy!

Careful, Smock, it might bite.

Maybe I'll talk to him.

Hello, stranger!

Huh?

You friend or foe?

Ah! A friend!

Oh, I think he catched a cold.

Wait a sec.

You're a really good boy, aren't you?

Look, now you broke it! You dumb cow!

That's not enough, I'm afraid.

We did it!

That's all? This will change the future?

Even small things can have a big effect.



That’s not the whole movie, but that gives you an idea about the plot.

No Time to Watch a Sci Fi Movie?

No time to watch a Sci Fi film? Watch a music video instead. It's quick, and might give you some idea about the plot. (Maybe not, but it's all fun.)

A fan made video of a movie can give you an idea of what the movie is about, and the special effects in the Science Fiction movie. Read a short review of the movie, and you can then decide if it is worth your time to watch the entire movie.

The Fifth Element

In the The Fifth Element (1997), the red hair woman (Leeloo) is a bio-engineered "perfect being”, sent the save the world. The good guy, Bruce Willis is a taxicab driver who helps Leeloo. The aliens, the Mangalores, are the bad guys.

From: Aspiegirl. Song: Rock Me Amadeus by Falco.



Mars Attacks!

In Mars Attacks (1996), the Martians attack us, of course. The good guys are everyone, except the Martians. The movie is a spoof of the old Sci Fi B-movies.

From: markoyartes. Song: 99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger.



Blade Runner

Blade Runner (1982) is based on Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick. Harrison Ford is a Blade Runner. He terminates bio-engineered humans called "Replicants", which are illegal on Earth. Rachael is a replicant, but does not know it.

From: kevindayhoff. Song: Welcome to the Machine by Pink Floyd.



2001: A Space Odyssey

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). About an expedition to Jupiter after finding an alien artifact on the Moon. The robot is named HAL, the main astronaut is Dave Bowman. HAL goes insane, and kills all of the astronauts except for Dave, who then disconnects HAL.

From: thewasdman. Song: Hello by Evanescence.



Independence Day

Independence Day (1996) is another movie about aliens attacking us. They just can’t leave us alone.

From: LordSmog. Song: Follow by Incubus.



I, Robot

I, Robot (2004). It’s the future, and we have robots aplenty. Will Smith stars. He sure is in a lot of SF movies.

From: Shrut123. Song: Somewhere I Belong by Linkin Park.



Stargate

Stargate (1994). Scientists discover an ancient stargate to another world. The military goes along for the ride. Which is good, since there are aliens on the other side of the stargate to fight.

From: MemorableMusicScenes. Song by David Arnold.



(T)Raumschiff Surprise - Periode 1

Traumschiff Surprise (2004). A German movie that spoofs Star Trek and Star Wars, among other things. The “Empire” (Mars) is attacking “Star Trek” (Earth). Sort of. Earth looks like Coruscant from Star Wars.

From: SaraSechmetSnape. Song: Numa-Numa by O-zone.

Dr. Who on YouTube

When can I have the feeling that I am the last person to find something out, and not be mad about it? Well, it's when I found out that Dr. Who is on YouTube! I missed Friday's episode on the SciFi Channel, so I looked on their site to see if I could watch it there. Nope. It's not on Hulu either. The episodes are on the BBC, but you have to be in the UK to watch it. Fortunately, I did find it on YouTube. And, it turns out that the UK is ahead of the US in the episodes, so I was able to watch the end of the the two part episode, too!

From: ParanormRUs

Silence In The Library

The Doctor and Donna enter a world of terror inside an abandoned library. They're given only one warning: 'Count the shadows'.

Dancing with the Star Wars Stars

MookieMovies of ParkSleuth.com has filmed the Star Wars Dance Off. Those Star Wars characters sure know their moves!

This was part of the Hyperspace Hoopla show at Disney/MGM Studios' Star Wars Weekends 2007. Couples include: Chewie and a Jawa, Luke and Leia, and Queen Amidala and Darth Vader. This show was performed a total of 12 times during Star Wars Weekends and a different couple won each time. It all depended on the crowd that was there at the time.

Check out my website at www.ParkSleuth.com for more videos taken from Orlando theme parks.



Vader steals the show in this years' dance off. This is part of "Snig and Oopla's Hyperspace Hoopla" show during Star Wars Weekends at Disney's Hollywood Studios.

The host who plays "Snig" in this video is Robert Pigott. Visit his website at www.TrobertPigott.com

Having said all this, all the credit goes to the people at Disney for putting such a great show together every year for Star Wars Weekends. It takes place for 4 weekends in June; Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays at Disney's Hollywood Studios (formerly known as Disney/MGM Studios). All I can take credit for is being able to hold a camera steady!

Check out my website for more Orlando theme park video updates at www.ParkSleuth.com It's still a work in progress but will grow over time.

Gulliver of Mars



I am currently re-reading Gulliver of Mars by Edwin L. Arnold. This Science Fiction book was written in 1905. I have read this book a few times before. The edition I have was published in 1964. If you liked Edgar Rice Burroughs's Mars books, you will probably like this book. It is along a simular vain: Mars is inhabited, and the main character travels to Mars and has wonderful adventures there.

I like reading old Science Fiction books about Mars and the other planets. We know that there are not aliens on the other planets in our solar system, but it would be cool if there were. After all, I’m reading the book for fun, not to learn something.

If you want to read the book, you can read it online at: www.thenostalgialeague.com (pdf) and also at www.historyofideas.org (html).

Forbidden Planet

When you watch an old Science Fiction movie, what do you think? You might have nostalgia, since you remember watching it as a child. You might think it is stupid, since the movie is so out of date. You might laugh at it, because the movie special effects are so simple, compared to today's movies. You might actually still think its a good movie, since it still works for you, as it did when it first came out. That is what I think of Forbidden Planet.

It was made in 1956, and the special effects where good for its time. For me, they still work. The movie, about a planet where an alien race has died off long ago, is the kind of Science Fiction movie I like. I like moves about ancient alien civilizations.

The movie stars Walter Pidgeon, Anne Francis, and Leslie Nielsen. Yes, Leslie Nielsen in a serious role.

In 1992, LeVar Burton (Geordi from Star Trek: The Next Generation) talked about the movie when it was shown on TNT.



Here is the space ship landing on the planet.



I love the eerie music from the film. And the scene in the power plant is one of my favorites of the movie.



lastweek0279 created an updated trailer for the film.



Here's the original trailer.



And Bargaintuan created a short version of the film.

A Robot From the Past

Cute video. Beware of robots from the past.

From: cozymonk

Intentionally crappy. Hilariously funny. A robot from the past comes to warn about an event that happened yesterday, but it really just wants some cheesy rice.

Iron Sky teaser - Space Nazis attack!

This looks good, too. Space Nazis!

From: energiaproductions
Story

Towards the end of World War II the staff of SS officer Hans Kammler made a significant breakthrough in anti-gravity.

From a secret base built in the Antarctic, the first Nazi spaceships were launched in late ‘45 to found the military base Schwarze Sonne (Black Sun) on the dark side of the Moon. This base was to build a powerful invasion fleet and return to take over the Earth once the time was right.

Now it’s 2018, the Nazi invasion is on its way and the world is goose-stepping towards its doom.

About the film

Iron Sky is being produced by Energia Productions, Blind Spot Pictures and Cinet. At the moment, the team is finalizing the script, working to gather a top-notch production team, and are looking for second-round financing.

The primary language of the film will be English with worldwide distribution, through theaters and via the Internet. If you are interested in joining in the production of Iron Sky, please visit our page at wreckamovie.com or contact us!

Star Wreck

This looks like a good movie. I like Sci Fi parodies.

From: energiaproductions

Star Wreck is a feature-length science fiction parody made in Finland. The film took seven years to make, but in the end we had a film with amazing special effects, action and lots of dark humor. Go and download the movie, it's free. If you like the film, you can also get it on DVD.
