I think it’s because the Nazis while the enemy, are still portrayed as powerful and intelligent. I mean, they make a mecha-Hitler and all the bosses are Arnold big bodybuilders. I think Jojo Rabbit took a great approach to Nazis, show how evil their ideology is while taking the absolute piss out of them and making them look like laughingstocks. That level of nuance was difficult with the technology they were working with though, and wolf3d really was a revolution in itself.

I feel like the reboots from 2015 onward did a good job there.

The German censorship actually made them less rediculous. Glad they uncensored Wolfenstein in Germany.

Haven't seen Jojo, like with so many shows I did not stick with it.

The jojo most people mean when they say that is The Bizarre Adventures of Jojo or something like that, I haven’t seen much myself. I’m talking about Jojo Rabbit though, which was a Taiki Waititi absurdist comedy-drama movie about a boy in Nazi Germany.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is the name, and oddly enough there is a character in part 2 that is a nazi that is ridiculously over the top.

Thanks for the assist! I had the right pieces, I just put them in the wrong order.
