    Oh my sweet Jesus. +100

    Speaking of Blackmagic… who graded this?

    I find it hard to believe you haven’t seen this clip used before. It is from the 2004 feature film Downfall and has been used so often with alternate subtitles that Youtube has to constantly remove it

    So it was graded years ago and just borrowed ever since. Perhaps it was Baselight or da Vinci? This iteration is clever but I find it is more a smile than outright laughter.

    Indeed, but there have been some corkers. The FCPX one made me laugh a lot, as did the Michael Jackson one, if I recall correctly.

    What’s funny is that within a week of FCP X’s release there were like 3 different Hitler bits, so I’ve always thought of the FCP X debacle as a 3 Hitler Event, or rather a 3 on the Hitler scale.

    Just curious, do you guys know who’s birthday it is today? Yup. My son’s. And that’s why I know it’s also Hitler’s.

    Approximately 19 million living people have the same birthday as Hitler Bret. So nothing special but a nice way to remember.

    This version has a very different look than the original. (Which is a good movie, by the way.) The blacks are pretty crushed here, so I don’t know if it’s a result of how it was ripped, or if they just wanted a different look. (And to subtly add to the joke.)
