U-Boat Parodies

U-Boat Parodies are a spin-off from the popular Downfall parodies created by HitchcockJohn. U-Boat parodies are done in a very similar format to Hitler or Stalin Parodies, except for the fact that instead of using clips from Downfall, the scenes used are from the 1981 German film Das Boot, which portrayed the daily lives of the crew of a German submarine during the Second World War.

So far, all of the U-Boat parodies created by HitchcockJohn have been video responses to Hitler parodies created by Hitler Rants Parodies. Earlier videos usually just consisted of the crew sharing their own remarks on the subject matter of the parody the video is responding to. For instance, his first U-Boat parody (a response to Hitler ranting about Rebecca Black's song "Friday") had the Captain wondering why Hitler disliked the song, only to understand when he heard it. Another parody responding to Hitler ranting about not being invited to the Royal Wedding had the crew (who had been invited) speaking fondly of the same event, and one of them even met Hermann Fegelein and was invited to help him with one of his Antics. More recently, a series of U-Boat parodies has helped to expand on the war against the United Bieber Fever Alliance.



Another notable aspect which distinguished the U-Boat parodies from the Hitler parodies is that the U-Boat crew often succeeds in their objectives, unlike Hitler who constantly fails. For example, they actually succeeded in destroying a UBFA convoy, with little trouble, even though Hitler's army could not stand a chance against them.
