So you don't care about video games, but you might care about this: A while back, a game came out called "Lego Star Wars," in which you played through a video game adaptation of Lucas' movies...except with Lego guys. It was a good game, slightly hilarious, and quite popular. As a follow-up, the next game will be Lego Indiana Jones, in which you play Indy dashing through lost temples and searching for the Holy Grail. Of course, this is a game targeted at a younger audience, so some things have to be toned down. For example, the face melting is less grisly. Here's another good example: They removed the Nazis.
The Indiana Jones movies.
In video game form.
Without Nazis.
I hate this country.

It must be a short game.
Remember when Spielberg took the guns away from the goons who were chasing after E.T.?
That was un-awsome.
Oh, that's nothing. Just wait until you see the ending of The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. If the lack of nazis bothered you...
See, the Holocaust never happened because THERE WERE NO NAZIS. Indiana Jones was just a tool of the Jew-lover movie making industry to cast aspersions on our noble barbarian ancestors.
Or something.
Ahmadinejad, is that you?
But Spielberg left "P3n15-breath" in his director's cut of "ET".
Because, yeah, grade-school kids might start joining the Nazi Party or shooting each other using walkie-tallkies. But there's no risk whatsoever that a film might give them any ideas about trying out 0ra1 53x.
Josh must have the prophetic anointing or something. My son is playing Lego Star Wars right at this moment.
It's the same in a lot of other games. Microsoft Combat Flight Sim had no swastikas on German WW2 planes. Because we were just killing those guys for being German or something...
Josh,
Of course, even though all the Nazis were evil, God meant their reign for good.
That is why we honor their memory by never making references to them in mainstream art. After 1992.
