Clemson fans did a good one about South Carolina FB. Also there is a good one by Canucks fans about one of their players. ---

Anyone know who who started the whole thing? He or she definitely deserves fifteen minutes of fame for a great idea. The earliest one I’ve been able to find, uploaded back at the end of September, is this one featuring Hitler [ranting about McCain’s VP choice](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fxm20ZcONOk). ---

I think the first one was [Hitler gets banned from World of Warcraft](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JF03i7NfIU), uploaded in February 2008 with nearly 2.5 million hits. ---

Watching these mash-ups makes me wonder what the scene is about, so I will likely see the film… so much for copyright infringement causing a loss in profit. ---

You can find the version with the real subtitles on YouTube, but I definitely recommend seeing the entire film. It is phenominal. I hadn’t heard about it either until I saw some of these mash ups. ---

My absolute favorite so far has been the [Grammar Nazi](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8fbrUjjivw) one. It incorporates so many of the actions and recognizable words into the dialog. ---

[This one](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUekeUCrS1M) won’t make a lick of sense to anyone who doesn’t have to work with JD Edwards (a labyrinthine ERP system like SAP). For those who do it is painfully apt. ---
