This may just be the greatest thing I’ve seen all year (via CrunchGear)

This does not work for me. Probably because I understand German. And I’ve seen the movie.

BAHHAAAAAHAHAA!!! Brilliant!
But..
why twhirl? Twitterific still exists as well, you know, Hitler!
Then again, maybe hes rocking it open source and on Linux, or on Windows. Yeah, probably Windows, because he might create a virus to hack into average users’ computers worldwide and.. well.. kill them. :’(
Very good video!!

Brilliant. Although I was expecting a reference to the Fail Wail sooner. Great work.

Hilarity

That is awesome!

That was great! Too funny loved it, thanks Cali!

That was great! Hilarious parody. Definitely worth watching.

How did they know about my baked potato Tweet? I love The Singing Office. I had no idea Twitter was around for so long. :-)

Why didn’t I see this before now? What a riot. Thanks for posting it, Cali. Hope that story selection, shooting, and editing goes great on today’s brief.
Peace -

That’s the greatest thing you’ve seen all year? I have lost all respect for GeekBrief.

Wow, this was hilarious. I had to put it on my site as well.
Cali, is there a reason you don’t allow trackbacks on this site?

Poor, Blondi. He loved that dog.

Really funny.. :D

Fantastic!

Might be because I’m from Europe (and understand German), but I can’t really see how this could be the greatest thing of the year. Maybe if you had posted it on 01.01…

I thought LisaNova Twitter Whole part two is the best “twitter-is-down” video, but I really have to think again! lol
…Web 2.0 … V 2.0 rocket? hahaha

Sorry Cali, Hitler was a monster.Not funny with that association.
August 8th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
The premiss was funny & a bit clever too! Thanks for sharing Cali.

I guess it’s cool if these parodies get people to watch Downfall (Untergang, Der), the movie used for the clip. I agree that it’s probably not funny if you understand German. It gave me a good laugh, but then I remembered the actual subtitles from the film.

Very clever … the timing was great! .. I’ve seen people get that emotional when twitter is down

lame
August 10th, 2008 at 6:10 am
I’ve seen many variations on that part of the movie, but this one is definitely the best. Especially when it says: “I have to talk to people in real life, do you know how tiring that is?!”. :D

I think i remember one which dealt with the fall of HD-DVD. That was hilarious…but was taken down due to copyright issues.
