The Hitler/Downfall meme has suddenly taken a strange new turn with this video of Der Fuhrer taking on Kirk's legendary nemesis Khan. No, Hitler is not merely bitching about Khan's attacks, like most of the Hitler videos; this time, other Downfall movie footage is used so that Hitler is actually battling Khan in space, and it's a little awesome. I am immensely looking forward to more of these, because making fun of Hitler never, ever gets old. (Via io9)

You mean Downfall consists of more than just 4 minutes of Hitler ranting at his officers?

Commit countless atrocities, fail to conquer Europe and you become the brunt of endless fan parody videos for generations to come.
Arcane replied to KagatoAMV:
What, no love for Napoleon?
kalos replied to Arcane:
Napoleon did conquer Europe, just didnt work out in Russia. Also, he didnt do "countless atrocities"
Thank you
allium replied to kalos:
Exactly! There were 37, from the "whiff of grapeshot" fired into a Royalist mob on 13 Vendémaire to that time he tossed a kitten into the South Atlantic when he was on his way to exile on St. Helena.

This Hitler video thing has been excellent, and only the pure awesomeness that is Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan could make it better.

I'm with Khan in this one instance.

So Hitler was trying to create the Nietzschian superman, and lo and behold, a genetic superman comes to kill him. Let that be a lesson to you, Hitler...amongst the 6 million other lessons you need to learn!

Something about Hitler being in control of the Enterprise disturbs me.
Bad Horse replied to Brian:
And what has he done with the interior? Please, Adolf! I know people on the Enterprise have no grasp of history beyond the 20th century but you're taking things a little too far, don't you think?

What if this is the alternate timeline that came about when McCoy jumped through the portal of the Guardian of Time and saved Joan Crawford in the episode "City on the Edge of Forever?" If so, do all planets look like Planet Ekos from "Patterns of Force"?
It was changed to Joan Crawford in the new Abrams timeline ;) Thanks for the correction.
aphthakid replied to ZADL:
This is different alternate universe where McCoy goes back to 1977 and saves Joan Crawford. She lives another 20 years, which delays the publishing of "Mommy Dearest" and the subsequent movie by decades and the resulting 2006 effort with Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway wasn't nearly a campy, just an unpleasant bomb that ended Hathaway's career. Without the giant anime doe-eyes of Anne Hathaway, America was helpless before the surprise attack of the Hitler clone and, thus the Nazis conquered the world and would later found the Reich of Planets where every ship is captained by a Hitler clone.

You know, I was always one of those people who though WoK had fine acting. Not superb and a little hammy, but otherwise alright. Next to Downfall though... holy hell there is some horrible acting in that crew.

Downfall paired with my favorite movie of all time. Not sure what to make of this, but I think I actually need to see Downfall.
