I see your point. especially about the hannah montana craze. But i disagree with hitler being a touchy subject. Look at some of the other historical figures that were used. they were not exactly any better then him.
Genghis Khan, the greatest known leader of the Mongols, who once conquered much of the continent of Asia. He also conquered more of the world than any leader before or since.
* Grigori Rasputin, a self-proclaimed holy man, popularly blamed for the destruction of the last royal family of Russia.
* Hannibal, the leader of ancient Carthage, who nearly forced the young Roman Republic to the brink of ruin.
* Henry V of England, a brilliant general who conquered much of France.
* Ivan IV of Russia, also known as Ivan the Terrible, a very efficient monarch known for cruelty to his foes.
there was more but those stood out.
And in reality some of those figures did not have bones to take dna from either.
