Are you in it?"And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man." -- JFK Inaugural, 1961
"Extremism in the defense of liberty is not a vice." -- Barry Goldwater, 1964 GOP Nomination acceptance speech (not George W. Bush 40 years later...)

Released August 20th.
I am going to buy it.
It's even better that it's in Finnish with English subtitles.
Of course, I would hit it with the tactical officer.

I'll pretend I'm Finnish and just steal it off of the net like all the Finns do with American movies.

I don't know if Pikku G's rapping is any good, but the beats on his website pwn 90% of the tired crap being played on American hip hop stations.

I can die a happy man now, knowing what the Finnish for "fragfest" isExult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

I can't believe they've decided on a release date. They must be very confident it'll be out by then. It's also somewhat odd I'm finding out about it on Apolyton
AFAIK they are going to use BitTorrent to release it in episodical form for free on a weekly basis. Hmm, but of course you could DL the DVD version once someone rips it, and see it all ahead of time.Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!

Actually, the last time I checked the plan it was (Finnish) one fifteen-minute part every two weeks or so, with BitTorrent provided as an alternative means of download for those who already have installed it. (Finnish) They've put everything on the website under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.0 license... but that doesn't mean that the content of the DVD is under that license. If I've understood things properly, the only perfectlytly legal way to get the entire film right when it's published is to buy the DVD.AFAIK they are going to use BitTorrent to release it in episodical form for free on a weekly basis.

No, they did not rip the images off. Not that I'm an expert on identifying scenes from science fiction series, but as far as I know, all the 3d work in all of the movies is original. The music in the movies before In the Pirkinning isn't original, though - but they aren't distributing those commercially anyway...This is Shireroth, and Giant Squid will brutally murder me if I ever remove this link from my signature | In the end it won't be love that saves us, it will be mathematics | So many people have this concept of God the Avenger.

It looks lame and I'm still wondering how this can be legal to take copy righted images and sell them on the net.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

Non-profit, and all those nifty models are made by them.
DVD's are.. hum, how do you say... Eh, the pressing and packaging cost's 20€, and the finished film costs 20€ to me, the "customer".
And there's that creative commons lisence bit, which propably could explain a bit, if I spoke legalese...
"I want to know more about the man behind the music!!!!!!!"
The music in ITP is also original, undoubtedly inspired by respective franchise music to some degree. The composer is a man named Tapani Siirtola, http://www.lumme-tuotanto.com/...
And I'm in no way associated with them, except that I bought a T-shirt with the Pirkinnian Empire's Raven in it, and am perched vehemently in the pre-order list for the DVD...
I've allways wanted to play "Russ Meyer's Civilization"
