Angelina Jolie may be one of the most popular movie stars in the world, but she's no match for moon-dwelling Nazis. According to the Guardian, Berlin Film Festival tickets to Jolie's directorial debut, "In the Land of Blood and Honey," were outsold by a movie called "Iron Sky."

The Finnish flick follows Hitler's top scientists, who decide to move to a moon base after the end of World War II. Seventy years later, they travel back to earth to finish what their Third Reich ancestors started.

Despite "Iron Sky" outselling "Blood and Honey," it still fell short of number one, with the Bollywood flick "Don 2: The King is Back" claiming the top spot.

Perhaps Jolie's German fan base weren't aware about her work on the film? Or maybe it's finally time for Angelina to make a Bollywood feature.

The Berlin Film Festival runs from February 9-19.

Iron Sky is nothing great - for that to outdo Land of Milk & Honey says it all. And not surprising by the way.

People seem more interested in their lives than in their movies.

She has an amazing list of award nominations for her acting and now for her directing.

For her directing? I've heard of her winning a few directing awards from people I don't know. Otherwise, the Golden Globes nominated her for directing, but then again, they nominated her and Johnny Depp for Best Actor and Actress for the Tourist, which was a joke, so their credibility is suspect.

The Oscars seem to be giving her a pass.
