There are actually a lot of Chinese space toys that were called Universe Boats or Space Boats in English. I think it was what the Chinese came up with when they were looking to say "Space Ship". Universe instead of space, and boat instead of ship. Close enough I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Finnish - German - Australian production to be accurate. And nearly 1 million was generated by crowd founding. Of course it's just another modern trash film. All clichés are served here too; however everyone gets their fat away here! Ideologies end up in the garbage dump of history. Apart from that you see sort of retro-futuristic spaceships & saucers; that still look like they had built 80 years ago ... Just a big fun - give it a try!

Why do you suppose there's a penguin on the bow? That is a charming box. Couldn’t let that one pass without referencing the classic “penguin on the television” sketch...
