      Why did i never came across this masterpiece? This might be very best trailer for a german movie i have ever seen. I hope the movie itself lives up to the trailer. Must be atleast a decade i was excited to see a german movie.

      Thanks. Gonna check it out.

        Why did i never came across this masterpiece?

        Ooooh, because its the gayest movie i’ve ever saw. Its gay af.

        But yeah, it holds up. Had a blast watching it after the trailer. It has the german je ne sais quoi i normally miss in german productions. Just the way people talk is already fucking refreshing. Its still scripted but not that stilted ‘TV-language’ nobody talks like in RL which surely is a phenomenon you know of from your mothertongue.

        Apart from that its a greatly crafted intentional B-Movie with great sets, camera work, lighting, acting, premise, characters and script. IDK how the comedy hits for non-germans since its very german coded. But in a good way. Just tons of tiny tidbits of relatable punches at our culture unlike seen almost all of the time on our linear tv screen.

        Oh yeah, motherfucking H.R. Giger was creative consultant on this movie. Like whaaaaat?! Also seeing fucking Iris Berben in this movie and ham her acting up to a perfect level was insane. Like i dont give a shit about the german movie landscape but Iris Berben is a name even I recognize.

        Anyway. 9/10 Movie. Thanks @CubitOom@infosec.pub

        edit: lmao, that james bond coded outro song about killer condoms while the credits role is also fucking great.

          You’re welcome. I think the comedy works well as a non-German, but I probably missed some things about German culture that you talk about.
