maybe you've seen these already but...
got this link from another forum. it's a bunch of color photos of the Nazis. to me they look pretty creepy just because they look so much more real or human or something. it's kind of weird.. especially the one w/hitler sitting next to the laughing girl near the end.
click link and scroll down....

bb01 said: "thats a lot of germans" yep. looks like a pet shop boys concert in the 80's! i still can't help but be taken in by how eerie it all looks. the color photos make it seem less distant.
nice pics ... but hitler's still a major asshole.

(that's sarcasm btw) of course he was a major asshole. no one is trying to say that in color hitler isn't an asshole.. just saying.. seeing WWII era pics in color, especially nazi's, is not common. color film was relatively new and i don't think any was in news print. when did life magazine go color or any major news paper??? anyway- we don't need to debate hitlers assholishness.. because there is no debate unless you are fucking retarded. so, that being said.. i thought the pics were of historical value and that's why i shared the link. to me there is something eerie as hell about it and in a world where we get an atrocity a day in movie pictures anywhere we want.. bah.. look.. it's like being in a car wreck and having no idea what's going on or what happened then a month later someone shows up at your door and as frame by frame images from 10 different angles to show you. so, yeah 'nice pics' i guess but it's history and i find that kind of shit interesting.. this isn't nazi worship or anything.. it's just fucking interesting to me because i'd never seen them and i majored in history in college.. fuck. i don't know. it's kind of fucked up to see them.. creepy. dirty or something to see some nazi w/pink rosy cheeks and white teeth etc instead of some shade of grey and black and white... it adds depth or is more revealing or ... yghartsyrt said: " fakeBlooper said: "link < that's a lot of nazis" bb01 said: "thats a lot of germans" was there a difference?" i think many people would argue there was but it's a very old argument and you guys are welcome to split hairs.. i'll happily stay out of it. i just found the pictures to be interesting in their color dimension. it's really weird seeing those in color. true.
it's strange that i always envision history before color film in black & white. and i didn't want to start an argument here. i just made a whitty remark. yghartsyrt said: "it's really weird seeing those in color. true. it's strange that i always envision history before color film in black & white. and i didn't want to start an argument here. i just made a whitty remark." i've learned the hard way that, for some people, sometimes sarcasm is lost in the text even when it's totally obvious. wait for web3.0
it has a sarcasm visualizer :P these are astounding images,
no wonder the nazis were able to lure german (and beyond) population into their mad world with all this bloated colorful embellishment there is a Spiegel TV docu called "3rd reich in color" which blew my mind when i watched it on TV, one can see plane attacks filmed right from the cockpit real-time executions big time nazi celebrations and warsaw ghetto footage of starving children (which honestly turned my guts around) all moving images, in color, from sixty-five or so years ago! split in eleven parts here link thanks tylth. i'll have to bookmark that link for a day when i'm feeling that my intestines are fortified.
technology and WWII is pretty interesting. everything from analog tape machines and super good microphones to jets and color film... wtf.. i guess we can't forget the A-bomb and sophisticated encoding/code breaking machines. link sleepy hitler lol. elronhubbard said: " link sleepy hitler lol." he must be thinking about when his next amphetamine injection is Page 1 | 2
