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)
