how could they miss the funniest part - that the guy was drinking german beer when he lost the iPhone?

Justin said...
Ummm, mute it if the german confuses you.

Anybody complaining about this is obviously not familiar with the Hitler parodies. Go on YouTube and you'll find a million of these parodies for everything from XBox to Burger King. It's funny people; stop being so darn sensitive! And besides, the similarities between Hitler and Jobs are a little chilling aren't they? OK, maybe not, but it's still funny. And I love Apple by the way too...

I agree on the fact that if you do speak / understand german you sorta lose out on the gag.
I also agree that they hould have used the detail of the *german* beer garden to their advantage.
Moreover the length of the text should try to match the length of AH's verbalization.
Oh well.
The film, though - the original thing - is epic in the way it recounts (but does not glamourise) the nazi's last days. Everyone should see it at least once. As a matter of fact it should be shown in public schools.

Out'n'over

Awsome! Simply awesome! I can't wait for the next adaptation of that epic scene! What will they make Hitler say, next time? ^_^

LOL!!!

Yes, but if you don't understand German, it's funny as hell. He's got the timing down pat, and the text is really funny.

Thanks, I enjoyed watching that!

This one had some good moments, it kind of looked like Hitler was drawing an iPhone in the air with his fingers at 17 seconds. But the best uses of this clip generally do better at choosing words that sound similar to what Hitler says once in a while, and I didn't really get that here. Still, a good effort.

I am sorry if I do not share apparently anyone's humor. but this is not anything that has rights to show. Parodies are what they are, Some things are not only because they then become repeatible, When history has forgotten iself it is doomed to repete the same mistakes. We have already done this in many areas, now this one too!! Perhaps you would have thought differently if you parents were there and you heard about it every day at dinner.

You can say all you want. There is a law against this in Germany, there is a reason. We should know why- Over 100,000 mothers in America know why, but they are gone now. Soon we will be too. Then Hitler can be a comic book Hero, and then a movie, and then I wonder who will repeat the same mistake? Anyone that finds these hilarious is simply uneducated.

Seriously, someone redo this and make it funny. What a wasted opportunity for some amazing jokes (Jobs / Hitler parallels, the guy's last status on the lost iPhone being about German beer, etc.) especially now that the filmmakers are pulling down all the parody videos.

Fucking stupid. The hitler vids were a chuckle - maybe - 2 years ago. Clueless gawker weenie fodder.

it would be nice for everyone to practice nonjudgement and take it for what it is..if it can make you laugh @ the expense of a dictator, it's gotta be worth it, thank you i needed this today :-)

If your natural language is german it is not funny

Death of a great meme. Constantin Films took the coward's way out (appropriately on Hitler's birthday) to do a digital takedown of all the "Hitler finds out" vids on YouTube. Germans are not known for their sense of humor, but are usually considered to be pretty savvy businessvolk. Dumbasses.

Hahahahahhaha....It's funny...cos it's true.....

HILARIOUS!
In agreement with Justin, mute the video and just read if you can understand German. It is still hilarious.

I've seen this clip adapted many times. This one had a couple funny parts but i don't know i that Steve Jobs reminds me too much of Hilter-- at least in terms of meltdowms. I'm also a big fan of another version of this clip that was done about an ex-boss and a dragged out failed project. That one really hit home:)

I approve of this message. And, I speak German and it was STILL Funny. Sieg Heil!
