Might as well expect a superhero movie to be serious
I had the same problem with Iron Sky as with many other films. I expect the laws of physics to apply as relevant to that reality.
Iron Sky was set in our world in our current time. The nazis had been living on the moon since 1942. The main players were born on the moon. Yet, when they arrived on Earth, they walked around like the rest of us instead of collapsing like astronauts do when they just spend a short time in space or on the moon. It's the little things that irritate me.
Honestly, I'm not far from being Sheldon on Big Bang Theory.

I had a bigger problem with their bleaching the black guy than with their ignoring gravity changes.

White overnight? Nah man! It took M.J. 30 years to do it

Yes! Could have been a great movie but, it took a wrong turn!

Saw End of Watch the other day... a little cheesy and Hollywood, but I liked it...

Fell asleep three times watching Snow White and The Huntsman on the plane last night... upset that it used battery life I didn't need.

They probably invented artificial gravity. Those Nazis invented everything.
