I agree with you that Hitler is fair game for mockery. However, I think part of the equation for the film distributors is that they may think it distracts from the gravity of the scene and of the movie as a whole. The particular scene is where Hitler is confronted with the facts that the defence of Berlin is completely fucked. I would not be alone in enjoying a very malicious kind of schaedenfreud in just how fucked they are - they're going to fry. Maybe not the kind of punishment he and his kind deserve, but knowing that they knew... While I appreciate the meme that the subtitling activities has generated, being able to speak and understand a little German leads me to the opinion that it is a little cheapening towards the actual movie. I believe it's this element, plus perhaps a lack of understanding how media remixing and social networking benefits content producers, that led to the film makers issuing the take down.
