As a history buff I was confused because "Hitler" didn't exist as a name during Beethoven's time... the name "Hitler" was adopted by Adolf Hitler's father, Alois, who, born illegitimate, altered the surname of his stepfather, Johann Georg Hiedler. This was 1877, long after Beethoven's death.

"why is he dancing on time if he is deaf?" I actually heard this answer from a deaf person so it might not aply to everyone, feel free to share if your experience is different. He claimed to be able to feel vibrations when music was loud enough so he could know the rythm on the bassline and follow along even if he didn't know the melody, he was a good dancer too.

I’ve heard that too, but I trunk it’s the fact that I doubt their were a lot of vibrations to hear in the 1820s. I might be wrong tho

[@mkuti-childress3625]

I went to college with a girl who had just a little hearing in one ear. She signed and could read lips. And she was on our school’s dance squad! I asked her how she did it, and she did say she could feel the vibration. Plus there were always visual cues. She was amazing!

You don’t need to be deaf to know this is an actual thing… just touch a speaker. Sound is just a speaker vibrating and essentially causing the air to vibrate too. Those vibrations will propagate through any surface and material as long as there’s enough energy

To “pick up the check” means to pay for the bar tab for all your friends when you go out.

[@luisaeoescaravelho]

Guys, I love your videos, specially the reviews. But as for this one, it was suposed to be that bad. They are making fun of some modern jazz (band) musiciens who make terrible jokes like those only imagining if it was beethoven doing it. Imagination!

[@Narikvp]

But they didn’t provide that context. And the skit was bad in places that had nothing to do with that context. What does a hitler joke have to do with making fun of jazz band introductions?

[@octavioaugusto3733]

Exactly. TwoSet seemed completely out of touch with reality in this one.

[@mb-176]

@@Narikvp i mean you don't really need that context if you're familiar with these type of band introductions but i get why it's confusing for those who aren't. The Hitler joke was still weird tho.

[@amystarke3317]

I am an amateur and worked as a musical "extra" in a TV show. They don't hire real musicians because it would be too costly. Union rules require union scale for providing just audio (music) and a separate union scale for providing visuals (acting).

[@11thShadowDragon]

That I recall from seeing a Jojo Rabbit ad, it seemed like the intention was quite different from this "comedy" here - I haven't watched the movie though

[@Michelle-oo9gp]

I watched it. Jojo Rabbit wasn't made just to try to be edgy funny like this weird joke on SNL, it is an actual deep movie but disguised as a comedy (if you watch what actually happens). I think it's this way to keep it light hearted as it conveys the message of acceptance, courage, love and hope in a time in history that totally sucked.

[@car3ss]

It depends on the reference. Jojo rabbit is a criticism of propaganda, hate, and indoctrination which uses humor and Hitler for that purpose. This skit is just “haha german, Hitler related funny! Haha” , it’s just stupid and has no purpose or meaning.
