    Well, at least now I know I'm a being stalked by a lurker!

    Odd that Youtube (perhaps the most heavily censored website) doesn't think it is "disturbing" ... yet, MCM does?

    Whatever, I'll find the silent movie version so as not to offend the kiddies.

    "Fuck Charlie! Fuck Ewan!"

    Awesome. I've seen this clip "rescripted" in other humorous contexts too, all of them very very funny. Very sorry that the original audio spoils the humor for our German-speaking members. This I can indeed understand.

    I actually enjoyed the original movie too, though I can't remember what it was called.

    "Just put it on eBay!"

    Awesome.

    Well, I can also understand why some might not appreciate Hitler & his nazi cronies portrayed in a fashion that ridicules them as complete fools!

    But I say ... too f'ng bad! No one should be allowed to forget. Censorship plays into neo-nazism, which is pathetically alive & well in certain European countries.

    And if it is painful to remember who those tyrants were, too bad - deal with it. It is 100 times more dangerous to forget.

    Anyways, it was only a joke about the BMW GS ... but if certain nationalities want to make it a bigger deal, so be it.

    EDIT - someone just emailed me a link to this German made movie entitled "Downfall". Despite being nominated for an Oscar (Best Foreign Language Film), and winning many, many awards, MCM censored it. This clip has also been one of the most popular Youtube parodies - and these parodies are endorsed by the film's original director. Quoting the director:

    "The point of the film was to kick these terrible people off the throne that made them demons, making them real and their actions into reality. I think it's only fair if now it's taken as part of our history, and used for whatever purposes people like."

    The BMW GS parody has >10,000 views, and not one thumbs down (dislike).
