Nice chap
I worked on Last Exit to Brooklyn in 1989 (on the music), Bernd Eichinger was co-producer. He was a funny guy, especially considering the subject matter of THAT film.
We nicknamed him Burnt Rightfinger...
The writer of 2004 German film Downfall has described as "tremendously amusing" the plethora of parodies featuring a ranting Hitler reacting angrily to various topical bad tidings - including the news he's been banned from Xbox Live, and Frank Lampard is signing for Inter Milan. The net meme may, Variety suggests, have started …
My fav was the XBOX LIVE BAN one until one regarding NINE INCH NAILS cancelling some gigs appeared...
He ranted about not being able to see Gary Numan sing METAL and CARS with NIN.
I LOL'd as I was at the London o2 gig where they dod those songs live...
and Hitler didnt get to see them...epic lulz....
They're great and they're parodies... so in the U.S., they shouldn't be able to take them down.
I still like the blu-ray hd-dvd, because it was the first one I saw and it was really funny.
I didn't realize how big it was until I went to show a friend.
AC... cuz I'm still at work.
The Russians beat the West for comedy this time. Their content is a bid bland, it is a rant about the bad service offered by Russian wireless providers. But the real kick comes from the form. They didn't just add subtitles , they also lipsynced the video. The subtitles are in a Russian almost pure enough to fit Politbureau norms. The sound is in a language that sounds like German, but it is actually Russian slang indecent enough to make Snoop Dogg blush, with German suffixes and a few German words thrown in. The innovative word "ahuevaitung" alone is worth a thousand empurplements. (in case you wonder, stripped of all its multi-leveled politically incorrect beauty, the word roughly translates to "I am shocked").
For those who trust their skill of the Russian slang is good enough to understand the video, here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bxhs8jMnC7w.
And kudos to the author who is amused by the jokes instead as viewing them as a copyright infringement.
