[Mandark]

Hitler is not happy when he finds out that the wallrides are as weird as in Canyon

Note to everyone especially NADEO employees:
This video is entirely made from fun and does not represent my actual opinion about your games, and anything "bad" you see in this video is not true and it was not meant to offend you

P.S: I love your games

Besides you're most probably using a copyrighted movie, doing any analogy with worst criminal "example" is definitely not the best, especially outside of political cabaret style parody.
And I think TrackMania does not at all deserve such allusions.

Sorry, but such kind of art is not really welcome I think.

I disagree, I found it funny.

A thing that was lacking, though, is to proclaim that so many things "suck" without giving a proper reason, or suggestions on how to make things better. Yes, it would have been out of place in the video, but saying so here or in the description would be a good move.

I gotta say that I found it more comical than distasteful.. .. but then again it could reach to those who feel the same ..
A Valley beta may have helped soothe and eliminate peolpes hopes and wishes. Just my 2 cents tho..

[TMarc]

It would have been funny if not just the original speech was kept in the movie.

[Mandark]

Well, first of all I made this just for fun, and did not intend to offend anybody, I should have seen the hate coming though.. I wanted to put in this video the opinions of all the mad people when Valley was released

Secondly, this type of parody is all around the internet, there are thousand Hitler videos with same audio but different subtitles, and also I don't have the possibility to replace the whole audio. I am sorry if anyone is disturbed by this video.

[TMarc]

I'm not offended and not hating, I'm only worried or wondered why people make fun of the darkest hours of European history
A strange way to remember and to contribute

A famous french humorist, Desproges, said: "On peut rire de tout, mais pas avec tout le monde" which roughly translates to "One can laugh of everything, but not with everybody" and it applies well here. False subtitles are a common way to use videos for fun, whatever is said in reality, and german isn't a widely spoken language so it won't bother most of people (even if german community if quite important on ManiaPlanet).

Moreover, about making fun of darkest hours of European history, how do you deal with movies like "Inglorious basterds" or "The great dictator" (even if, I agree, it was before the worst of the war)? Or the Monty Python and the Spanish Inquisition (which were really dark times too)? There are so many examples of people making fun of history it seems weird to jump on CrAzYdriv3r like this...

IIRC, it has been done already a few years ago on the french TM forum with the same scene yet nobody complained.


Back on the topic, I found this funny too

[TMarc]

In general you're right, but the movies you're citing are parodies or splatters themselves, and they more or less stay in their context.
To put TM or SM in the same context now is a bit odd, but I don't have any problem to have this opinion alone

[UrinStein]

Gosh people, this is the internetz. >.>
Know your Meme please...

Anyone who can't tell apart satire from criticism should learn som lessons about media anyway.

I find it very funny. Good work Crazydriver.^^
I can clearly see myself in that video. :D
