the ultimate "Downfall" parody?



By now, you've seen at least one of the Downfall parodies, where the subtitles for a section of the film are changed into something totally unintended by the makers. Apparently, the studio is run by humorless idiots without an ounce of understanding about how the parodies increase interest in the original.

Or maybe, they understand only too well how the system works.

Indeed, by banning it, it makes it even more 'the thing to do'.

Clever, greedy bastards.
