Star Trek Spoof Top Finnish Movie

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the local-club-accounts-for-2.8-million dept.

Dotnaught writes to tell us Reuters is reporting that the science fiction spoof "Star Wreck: in the Pirkinning" has become Finland's most viewed movie. From the article: " [...] relying on free distribution over the Internet to reach more than 3 million viewers in less than two months. "Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning" is a full-length feature in Finnish with English subtitles. It was made by a group of students and other amateur film makers with a bare-bones budget and a few home computers to create elaborate special effects."

    What's with being a geek and having to like piss-poor Sci Fi? For the money and effort they spent making this piece of shit, they could have come up with an original story worth watching.

    Fuck Bush. Bush is Hitler! Bush War and War Bush will be the ruin of us all. They are Hitler^2. Americans should die. They should die and go to hell. If not, the EU and the UN will send Bush Hitler a strongly worded letter. The leter will be like the following:

    To The Hitler Bush That It May Convern,

    We strongly suggest that you die and go to hell. Failure to comply will result in yet another sternly worder letter. So you better die and go to hell if you know what is good for you. Please.

    Sincerely,
    The EU and the UN

    PS. We really, really, really mean it. Or else.

    The difference is that Sweden has always been on our side, while Finland has been nazi and communist.
