I'm confused now--I've seen both. I'm going to watch Inglorius again tonight (I have it on DVD). Your probably right.

It's from Downfall

I admit it--I was wrong. I think the reason I thought that is because another parody of that scene was going around about the same time Inglorius came out and I morphed the two into one...

Not sure who created this but it is an instant classic...

A very creative and ironic comparison.

Of course we won't know if this is a long term situation, but the video is nevertheless funny as hell.

I think that should be imbedded in every topic. It is that funny.

This from Wikipedia (and Wikipedia is never wrong): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downfall_(film" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

One scene in the film, in which Hitler launches into a furious tirade upon finally realizing that the war is truly lost, has become a staple of internet viral videos.[16] In these wildly anachronistic videos, the original audio of Ganz's voice is retained, but new subtitles are added so that he now seems to be reacting instead to some setback in present-day politics, sports, popular culture, etc. One parody depicted Hitler flying into a rage in response to being banned from Xbox Live. The creator of this parody was the one who originally came up with the idea of Downfall parodies, his video Hitler gets Banned from Xbox Live was the first ever Downfall parody (and the first parody to be taken down as well).[17] This video accumulated a vast number of YouTube views and was posted on video game related sites.

By 2010, there were thousands of such parodies, including many in which a self-aware Hitler is incensed that people keep making Downfall parodies.[18]

The film's director, Oliver Hirschbiegel, spoke positively about these parodies in a 2010 interview with New York magazine, saying that many of them were funny and they were a fitting extension of the film's purpose: "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."[19] Nevertheless, Constantin Films has taken an "ambivalent" view of the parodies, and has asked video sites to remove many of them.[20] On April 21, 2010, the producers initiated a massive removal of parody videos on YouTube.[21] However, there has been a resurgence of the videos on the site since the mass removal.[22] On July 28, 2010, Constantin responded by issuing DMCA takedown notices on videos which had countered the blocking of the videos using a Fair Use argument.[citation needed]

As of October 2010, Youtube no longer blocks any Downfall-derived parodies[23], and is now placing ads on some of them. This was seen by many as a sign of relief, ending the cat-and-mouse game that involved parodists and Constantin Film.

Corynne McSherry, an attorney specializing in intellectual property and free speech issues[24] for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, stated "All the [Downfall parody videos] that I've seen are very strong Fair Use cases and so they're not infringing, and they shouldn't be taken down."[25]
