Downfall

I've been sitting on this story for at least a week, trying to find the proper article to link here. Basically, there is a movie about Hitler called 'Downfall' and one particular scene in it is often used to create parodies by changing the subtitles so that Hitler, instead of talking about historical Hitler things, instead rants about Kanye West or his birthday being ruined. They are comedic and satirical, and they started to vanish, despite the film's director and writer/producer being flattered by the parodies and thinking they are funny. At the end of the article is an example of a Downfall parody, this time with Hitler reacting to all the Downfall parodies.
