Why cant foreigners make Films in English ?

After recently seeing this movie I would like to say that it had some good scenes and the actor who played hitler was great but what offended me to no ends is what was the language(I know it was germany related)but why not in the american language-English?

This fact bothered me so much that I gave it a 2/10,as I said...the only redemption was hitler.
The action scenes were poor or hardly present(compare it to saving private ryan's action!!!)
Dont you think that making it in english would have benefited the producers and the film itself what with a wider release and better Box office?
I do not think there are any americans on this board because no one must have heard of it(european film for europeans) but making this in english would have proved beneficial to the film

Why do Americans lack culture and average intelligence?

Ronager Please shot yourself in the head.

The world doesn't revolve around America. If your so ignorant, you get offended by foreign language films don't watch them. You're obviously not intelligent enough to understand them.

Maybe he did shoot himself/herself in the head and we are all guilty of cyberbullying. LOL.

Why?!
Just to irritate the dumb Americans like you, of course not all Americans belong in that category, fortunately!

Nice trolling

The fact that it is in German is one of the best aspects of this film. Hitler spoke German, not English.

Your post reads like a parody of the entire American culture as a whole.

"I liked the movie but I gave it 2/10 because it wasn't in English". ROFL at you.

One thing that irritates me about imdb boards it's the "looks like" topics. Never even close.

Obvious troll. Soooo goood!

Firstly what pisses me off the most is arrogant Americans who think the language they speak is American and not English. Secondly what pisses me off is this film was perfect in German it would be like if they made a film about Winston Churchill and decided to have him played by a German. It would kinda an insult really.

I could ask you "Why can't Americans make films in a foreign language?"
There's more in the world than just America you know.
