Turns out Hitler doesn’t like the new Watchmen movie. (WARNING: SPOILERS for anyone who’s been living under a rock for the past few months.)
"Austro" as in Rothbard and Wittgenstein, "Athenian" as in Aristotle and smashing-the-plutocracy.
About Roderick T. Long
The Empirical Me
I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.
I literally cried through my laughter. That was great.
I have to say, my feelings of joy anticipating this movie has been tempered by the changes I’ve heard they made. (I wonder how Alan Moore would react to find out he and Hitler actually agree on something.)
BTW, that clip is from the German film “Downfall,” which is really quite good. I highly recommend it.
GRR! Why did I not heed your warning. I was hoping I could see this movie with no spoilers.
Ah, well. I’m still looking forward to it.
I thought the movie adaptation worked fine, for reasons I’ve posted at L&P, but in any event that Hitler clip was pretty freaking funny.
