Park Life 70 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/20...ure-film-hitler At the weekend I went to the cinema. I sat and sucked Minstrels, and watched Good, a film about a depressed Nazi, played by Viggo Mortensen. He ponced around in a Swastika tiepin, looking wracked and smiling at Goebbels. This came a few months after The Reader, when I sat and sucked Minstrels, and watched another film about a depressed Nazi, played by Kate Winslet. This comes a few months after Valkyrie, which was also a film about a depressed Nazi, played by Tom Cruise. He tried to kill Hitler with leather goods, and failed. The briefcase exploded, but the tyrant lived on. Hitler has guest-starred in South Park, The Twilight Zone, Red Dwarf, Monty Python and The Simpsons. He has appeared in a sitcom called Heil Honey I'm Home! (Not my exclamation mark.) He appears in a videogame called Snoopy Versus the Red Baron and a comic called the New Adventures of Hitler. In novels he has lived in a cage under the Kremlin and tried to clone himself. Salvador Dalí painted Hitler Masturbating. In the film Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn, he escapes from hell. Am I living inside Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn? This disgusts me. It makes me wretch. I thought the whole point of the second world war was to eradicate Nazism from the face of the earth. No more swastikas, no more shiny boots, no more dwarf narcissists giving vegetarian dinner parties and shooting liberals. It was supposed to be over in 1945. But we seem to have a new kind of Nazi domination - a cultural domination - and it's silly. There is no point to it: it exists just for itself. And it turns our eyes from the evils that we should be noticing today. It is a big dressing-up box, full of distraction. Inane ramblings of the over educated paranoid Jewess or does she have a point?

Fop 1 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Nazi's are the "safe" media Evil - so they are all over the place. You couldn't do a film about say Mugabe in the same way (well not without a shitstorm of criticism) even though Fop suspects he sleeps with a copy of Mein Kampf under his pillow. She's very naive though if she really thinks "the whole point of the second world war was to eradicate Nazism from the face of the earth". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trophyshy 6441 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Inane ramblings. It is in our nature to be fascinated with extreme humanity and Hitler is as far as it goes. In the other direction, we seem to have been obsessed with some thoroughly decent chap called Jesus for about 2000 years. One could arguably be disgusted by the cultural domination that has evolved around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Tanya Gold would make a good pornstar name now that you mention it... What drivel though. I don't think portraying Hitler in films based around the war are glorifying the Nazis at all. Indeed, there have been several incredibly moving films which utilise the Nazis to portray how terrible the war really was. Seems like she's only offended because it was close to deadline and she had fuck all else to do except suck on minstrels with nothing better to be writing about.
