They should start using real Hitler footage for parodies now. It would be funny to watch the collective handwringing over Hitler being one of the most popular videos. He'd be the next Rick Astley.

Ah, they were growing more than a bit stale anyway. Not like they were original any more or anything, either, it's just "lemme take this clip that 10 000 others have taken and add stupid subtitles".

With the Hitler stupidity removed, it's time to move on to other films. Like everyone's favourite love flick, .

Well, I guess I can understand it, but these were hilarious.

That was probably my favorite one. 'It's already been twittered...."

Do those goons really believe they can contend with the power of well-established internet memes?

At least the Wolfenstein one is still there, that one is awesome...

I'm not sure how long it would've taken me to get around to seeing the original if it hadn't been for all the youtube parodies. No doubt there are a LOT of people who would never have known the movie existed otherwise.

So a big BOO HISS from me on this development.
