There's an upcoming movie in germany that takes hitler and makes him look comedic, not producers either, they're acting like hitler was a goof and such.
Director claims he's not making fun of the holocaust, or it's victims.
But it is offensive saying that hitler was so goofy, when he killed millions.
Your opinion?

If given the choice between something mocking Hitler, or something heiling him, I'd rather the former. sweatdrop

Also, I don't see it as them mocking hitler, as much as making him seem goofy, and the sheer idea of a man that laughs at farting in the bathtub, cheeses me off.

Supermetheus Don't speak yiddish either. XD I'm a bad jew. D: For the record, speaking Yiddish isn't something the majority of the world's Jews do. Not all of us are northern and western Europeans. In fact, the majority of the world's Jews are not. Yiddish is spoken by Jews with Ashkenazi backgrounds. S'fardi, Mizrachi, and Teimani Jews aren't from the areas in which Yiddish came to be. You're more likely to find the Jews of Spain, Portugal, Central and South America, Italy, and other Mediterranean and Arab-heavy lands speaking Ladino, which is made up of Hebrew, Arabic, and Spanish primarily. Not all Jews eat matzah ball soup, kreplach, and borshch, either. Some of us eat tabbouleh, shawarma, and biryani.

My great grandma and my grandpa speak yiddish. My great grandma is from Germany.
But anyway, back to the topic. To me, I think that as long as it isn't a film that states "Hitler is #1" or that "Hitler should still be alive and ruling", I don't mind seeing Hitler be shown as an idiotic and goofy dumbass. It is what he truly was. (Plus he was insane in every single way possible.)

Supermetheus Also, I don't see it as them mocking hitler, as much as making him seem goofy, and the sheer idea of a man that laughs at farting in the bathtub, cheeses me off. i don't see the harm in it. I mean i don't think it's the most wise thing a person can do, but it's bold and if done the right way can be great. I don't know what to say, I can see how the movie can be done wrong and done right. I'm just hoping he does it the right way. I want to learn yiddish, but I have no idea where you'd go to learn it. ninja Mizakichii My great grandma and my grandpa speak yiddish. My great grandma is from Germany.

Hmmm... I don't see much of a problem in mocking Hitler... Hey, it's better than making a movie that would make him look good... Right?
