Click & Laugh

In the next episode, Hitler learns that the Baldwin 26 WILL be painted green.

Now...that was FUNNY!

There are several Hitler parodies on You Tube, and some are absolutely for the over 18 crowd...

HAving seen the actual movie, and I recommend it heartily, this was over the top fantastic. Well done.

There are hundreds of these including some self-aware ones where Hitler is complaining that they were being taken down. Youtube apparently no longer takes them down as they meet the legal definition of fair use via parody. Even the director of the movie says he enjoys them.

The actual movie is called "Der Untergang" or "Downfall" in English.

That..was..intense!

I never EVER thought anything railfan related would make me laugh that hard!

Indeed, I haven't laughed that hard at a Youtube clip in a long time. Thanks for sharing Mike!

I have seen quite a few of these and that is one of the best. I did laugh out loud in a few parts.

Whoever made the first parody using this movie clip, that was funny, clever and original..the other 500 since? eh..not so much. it's gotten old.

It's gotten to the point with me where all you have to do is say "Hitler parody/Downfall/Untergang" and the topic of discussion, and I can plot out the entire dialogue in my head before I see the first word.

It takes a skillful writer these days to get me to even chuckle at those.

There's an entire section devoted to these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downfall_(film)#Parodies
I agree fully. The whole thing proves the point I've always made that for every truly original person out there, there are hundreds of people hwo think that a slight modification of the original concept is as creative. They're wrong, of course, as anyone who's ever seen a "Calvin peeing on..." sticker can attest.
I suppose the serious nature of what that scene is about (in reality, Hitler coming to terms finally with the fact that Berlin - and probably the war - is about to lost) makes these parodies especially disturbing in a way. It's not just one insane guy losing it, it's the fact that he's still ordering countless Germans to their deaths and taking many Russians with them. This isn't a fictional film, but it is a movie account of the recollections of a few people who were there at the time, so therefore not a perfect historical account. Many of these people portrayed didn't survive the end of the war, and some had horrible things happen to them at the hands of the Russians afterward. Goodness knows I'm no fan of Adolf or his policies (my Grandmother had family members killed by the Germans at the start of WW2) but I just don't see a lot of comedy in these scenes.
I'm about a non-PC and irreverant as it gets, but these parodies got old with a quckness.

I'd definitely agree- no matter how creative, I can't find anything involving Hitler funny.

I didn't lose any family members in the war, indeed it was long over by the time I was born, but both my parents lost good friends and almost every adult male at the time was a veteran of one of the World Wars, Korea, or even the Boer War.

I went to school with quite a few kids whose parents had fled to Canada from Holland because of Hitler.

Not much to laugh about with respect to that man.

Excellent!

Cool, there's a good rant scene in "Schindler's List" that would also likely work for it, I assume that would leave you in stitches as well? Just disregard the burning bodies in the background once I get the editing done...

don't tellem about the CB&Q 5632 painted gold
