Talk:Hitler in popular culture

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hitler has turned up in a number of video games. Should these be added to "Hitler in fiction" or perhaps a separate section, "Hitler in video games?" --Feitclub 05:48, Apr 11, 2005 (UTC

In my opinion, that should go under a separate section. I'm curious, though, what games has Hitler been in? I do a lot of gaming, and I don't recall him being in any games. Perhaps he's been mentioned in the many WWII games, but I've certainly never seen him as a 3D character.--Daveswagon 2 July 2005 22:22 (UTC)
He was in Wolfenstein 3D as one of the end-level bosses. Psychonaut 3 July 2005 09:49 (UTC)

One could almost make an entire section on The Simpsons referrences to Hitler. There's a list of them under the "Germany" subheading here.--Daveswagon 04:37, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Lack of other side

On the page there is mentioned that Hitler during his lifetime was depicted as glorious hero, but no examples given, all examples are just those of mockering.

[edit] Template

We're having a debate on Template talk:Adolf Hitler about whether to include Triumph of the Will and The Empty Mirror as pop culture references. Any thoughts? Palm_Dogg 06:14, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] DC Universe Hitler

Well, http://www.dcuguide.com/board/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=279&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15 should just about cover that.

George Foreman did a time boxer skit. Few more come to mind.

[edit] Cats that look like Hitler

I don't have the time right now to look through this whole article, but I saw a website dedicated to cats resembling Adolf (actually called catsthatlooklikehitler.com). Was this posted up here at all or is it just not needed?

[edit] I smell a weasel, or is that a stankin opossum?

"Hitler was a gifted, charismatic orator possessed of a profound personal presence, "

Weasel words like I've never heard them before. I myself am too lazy to change it, but just pointing it out, that it should neutralizalized to make it sound more encyclopediac-er. Cha.68.34.239.31 06:46, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I do agree that the above sentence may sound weaselish... but then again, Hitler was a highly gifted a capable leader who was well know for his oratory skills. Please read the below post for more comments... MickeyK 22:33, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] General Suggestions

I suggest that the entire section (the introduction) which is a brief bio on Hitler, be removed. This article is about Hitler in popular culture, not Hitler himself. MickeyK 22:33, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

I added a reference to the popularity of the Emo hitler internet meme. Seen it enough to know it is notableYou very nice place 00:29, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
