When I go to view this, the page says
 
Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Click here to get the latest flash player.
 
 
When I "Click Here", I'm taken to the ADOBE Flash website, I click download and it says it's installed....but I still get the problem. Anyone know how to resolve this? In fact, this happens alot with websites that require the latest Flash, they say I don't have it installed and yet when I go to the Flash website, I download and am informed by the nice "twisty" graphic that it's installed.
 
Any ideas anyone?

I'm not up to speed on FSX rumours, though. Did somebody make that vid with thoughts of previous releases in mind, or IS the new one going to be like that, too? Despite the lousy interface mentioned X-Plane is currently far superior to FS2004. Nothing against X-Plane, but I was rather hoping FSX might raise the bar a bit.

Made from what I consider the best movie on Hitler ever made, though it's a bit too new to be making that judgement I was blown away by Ganz's performance.

The movie's english title is "Downfall"

the newest release of Microsoft's Flight Simulator is due out this month..   (Version 10  hence the name  FS"X"...  it's supposed to have all of these fantastic enhancements but it's more eyecandy as far as that goes then anything else.  Us flightsimmers are a picky lot and I guess it's not living up to it's claims hence the video...

This is a classic piece...  thanks for letting me share it with you guys.. (I'm also a big wargamer too )

I should've known better - sorry.

I'm using IE6 v6.0.29 and Windows XP Pro. Switched AV and Firewall off to perform the install of Flash just in case it wasn't installing properly because of those.

Still need help...and it's not helping hearing everyone say how funny this is when I cannot see it!

Laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes. My wife was even laughing hard at it. Now if they could do the same thing for Madden, and the overheating Xbox360 I'd pass out from all the fun.

Great post!! [:D][:D]

Eventually saw it and it's funny as hell.

What is the film, by the way? I may like to watch it...anyone see it? What's it about/like?

I believe I mentioned the name of the film (but it's worth saying again), the English name anyway: "Downfall"

Cheers.

It cause a bit of a stir with all the Nazi emblems etc.There was a backlash from one of the political parties.

Well, that certainly did not make the german news [;)]. Do you have a link or something? It was probably one guy of a certain party that felt the need to step up on the stage or so. There is a lot of german historical movies and documentations with Nazi emblems galore and I do not see why this should be a problem. It is not forbiden to show them in such a context.

The movie was a huge hit here, one of the most successfull german productions ever, and praised and awarded left and right.
