Notw; i spell as scientiffically accurate as this movie is
The Conquest Of The Pole
This is my review on The Conquest of the Pole from 1912 which was 100 years beforfe the world ended
its based on the works of Jules Verne and was directed by George Melies who was one of the 1st guys to use special effects in films
It stars no one I heard of and was also inspired by the 1800s dudes trying to get the the north pole in the 1900s
So as its based on real sh-t they can put it on the hostory channel like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Silence of the Lambs and 2001 A Space Odyssey
But unlike those; this isn't cr-p
btw this is is german or w/e so imma have to read the wikipedia thing
So after title and sh-t we get trhe explorers club where these guys who probably knew slaves are hanging out and talk about how to get to da north pole
do they wanna meet santa?
they show posters of various vehicles and some look like some kind ofg G I Jow toyu
1 guy wants to make an aero bus that has a bird head and design like its a transformer
then the feminists come in who wanna go to the pole toprove they can do stuff guys can do
the club drives their b--chy a55es out and strows paper at them and the cops hold em off
if only we stood up to feminists today instead of giving in to their demands and devolving our protoculture
so the club goes with the aero plaine plan of mr maboul who does a silly dance and hops around like a cartoon
a diverse group of guys is chosen to go to the pole like its the power rangers and all groups are represented
even in the 1900s they were doing it
so they go to a room and maboul shows them a model the size of a double bike of his aero polaine and shows off how it has folding wheels and a prop[ellor on the top like a chopper
yeah but can it link to Star Saber and fly faster than sound like Victory Leo?
so they use an electric powered factory to build the machine and its got these sppinning and pumping machines
the background is drawn on but it works
women sew the cloth for it and a frenchie with a beard trys smooching a girl but she beats him off
maboul shous his homies the building of it and they are dressed in traditional outfits like justin trudeau would wear if he went there
the feminists have made their own flying machine somehow and its got party balloons and propellors and skis and the humans drive em off and carry off their cr-pmobile
so they have finished the aero plaine andits got a propellor on the side by the door what seems to do no use and has a box in it for carrying people liek an 1800s stagecoach
the feminists wanna go on but are taken off by cops as in the 1800s we were smarter
the airero ship tsakes off and other guys try going to the north pole in a balloon, whichj will probably kill them from trhe cold as its high in the wind and uncovered
the balloon has a stow away and the ballloon guy drops it and i think its the feminist who falls and slams into a long hard pole and she pops like a bag of powdered sh-t
the baloon goes up and pops and goes down in flames
1 guy made a phaIIic car and other guys made other cars to drive to the north pole as i guess they can drive over water
we get miniatures driving over rocky areas and flling through a bridge and probablyu biting it in the chasm
so we get a fleet of various ships like some kinda power rangers thing and all trying to get to the pole
holy cr-p how did all these different guys make air ships and all launch at the same time?!
Its like in Mobiule Fighter G Gundam how all these Gundams spammed out to fight in the final fight!
The its the end of reel 1 and the start of reel 2
oh and all these guys coming out with their own thing to compete with this other guy is liek all the ninja turtles clones like Cheetah Men or Battle Toads or Biiker mice from Mars or Street Sharks or Extreme Dinosaurs
Or all the Pokemon clones like Robopon or Metal Walker or Fighting Foodons
so the aero plane bird thing goes on and goes by constelations which are the stars and drawing of what they are overlayed on the film and they dodge a shooting star (dragon in attack mode) that was coming from the grouind and arcing under them somehow
is something firing at them from the gbround lik in star ship troopers
he goers by another constellation, 1st was pices then libra, then mor shooting stars
then they bump into a planet that pops into smoke dust
either the sun or a u fo or an angel or beyblade or beywheel spins by with sparks shooting out and then they goi by the big dipper with chicks holding the stars
then scorpio that moves around like a paper cup out puppet and it p[unches the ship with the stinger
the ship flips but rightd and goes on and theres lightning
thery find the north star i think which is held iup by 2 chicks and go by some 3 ringed planet with chicks holdiong stars
they make it to the great white north and its a big icy wasteland of shards oif broken ice and tall ice things
they land and dont seem to worry abnout the cold and wander around and dance
then from behind this ridge arises this huge f--king ice giant!
whwere the f--k did that come from?!
I mean this wasn't 100% scoientiffic, but still man
its made using a huge puppet with multiple people in it like the Queen in Aliens
its got a pipe which is short off buy a guy with a gun and the people attack it
it grabs em and gobbles 1 up
1 guy gets a cannon and fires on it and the grabbed people escape
they fire what seems like a scattershot and it covers its ears and the guy it swallowed crawled out as he didn't chew his food
so the ice giant sinks offscreen and the people cheer and go onward
they find a magnetic needle thats the north pole and they somehow are sucked to it and stick on
it falls in the ice water and this other aero ship comes by as the ice water guys wave a french flag
the ship comes down anfd lowers a rope ladder and 1 guy crawls out as i guess the magnetism doesn't wortk in water
oh and the guys planted their countries flags by ther needle and they weren't moved for some reason
as thery go up, therre's sudden;y sealsd, white birds and penguins, even though those are at the south pole; thre opposite side of the planet!!
What next? Mastodons in Australia?!
then we get the maboul at the pole showing a glode and putting a thing on top
then he's in civilization and bows with his homies having come home a hero
the end
That was pretty good
nice half hour film with cool for their time efects and clever ideas
Its based on Jules Vernes The Adventures of Captain Hatteras and The Sphinx of the Ice Fields which was a sequel to the Edgar Allen Poe movie i mean book The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket
huh, the ice giant was basded on native and russian and nordic legends of tall cold monster people that eat people
Who know's whats up there, we know more about da moon than da north
overall this was a nice 1910s film and holds up well
it goes on an adventure and is a good ride
no musuic or much acting or chharacters or bad romance subplot tacked on
no forced sad moment 75% THrough the film
and it dont drag
its better than most things today
Glad I saw it
For The Conquest Of The Pole 2 I want it to be the 30s aND Humans are colonizing the Nortj Pole and having clashes with the snow giants who live there. Also are Mammoths they keep as pets andthem having snow weapons like icicle bazookas. Its also a 16 bit Run N Gun game on Segas Genersis, Snes, TG16, Atari Jaguar and GBA where you play as these Alaska bada55es who use electric guns that can use sonic and fire attacks and you fight through the ice giants animals and people who betrayed the human race as they think the ice monsters aare the good guys.
