Uwe Boll

If you love or even like video games or horror movies, and absolutely hate every pile of Uwe Boll shite to come down from his self proclaimed almighty hand, please click on this link.

Uwe Boll
From FEARnet's interview with Uwe Boll:

FN: Are you aware that there is a petition online, signed by 18,000 people, requesting that you stop making movies?

UB: Yeah, I know that. 18,000 is not enough to convince me.

FN: How many would it take?

UB: One million. Now we have a new goal.

FN: Hear that, haters? A challenge!


Keep in mind this is a man who has given us such golden quotes as:
"I'm not a fucking retard like Michael Bay or other people running around in the business or Eli Roth making the same shitty movies over and over again," says Boll. "If you really look at my movies you will see my real genius you know, and if you go on May 23 on Postal you will see that I deliver a movie what nobody else delivered in the last 10 years, what is way better as all that social critic George Clooney bullshit what you get every fucking weekend."*

and:
"You have to really wake up and you have to see me what I am," he says. "I am the only genius in the whole fucking business. Goodbye."*

What's wrong with Michael Bay's films? Sure no one likes them all, but you can say that of any film maker. Hell, I love Kubrick and still hated Eyes Wide Shut. Can you say Michael Bay half asses it and does a shitty job? No. Does he actually research his subject matter and try to deliver what the fans of the content want? Yes. Transformers is one of the best examples ever of successfully making a film version of any comic, cartoon, super hero, or video game. It included all those details that you look for as a fan of a particular subject. Does Uwe Boll use storylines that have nothing to do with the source material? Yes. Is there very little content even referencing the source material? Yes. WTF?

And don't give me that major production house/money/backing/advertising crap. Uwe's movies sell themselves based on the fact that they are already popular games, and so there is a built in market of those who loved the game. Money and backing don't make or break a film either, huge productions have had horrible results while some small budget films (Desperado, anyone?) have had huge success.

In fact, Uwe Boll, you do make the same shitty movie over and over again, and I dread hearing your name when I hear of a new movie that would have potential if it didn't have your asshattery all over it.


*Thank you Ozymand for finding these quotes.
