Dr. Uwe Boll's Latest Antics!

[Timstuff]

Boll sounds like Hitler did right before the Olympics.

BTW, Germany got creamed that year.

 

[Matt]

He's insisting on someone between 140 and 190 lbs...does that really seem fair?

 

[Timstuff]

I've got it! Uwe Boll should be the villain in the next Mortal Kombat movie, who masterminds a deadly film festival between the world's greatest directors!

 

[kaijunexus]

LOL @ Uwe Boll films making money.

They had to include a COMPLETE video game with the Bloodrayne DVD just to sell it! Uwe Boll is a loser.

 

[DorkyFresh]

if i'da known he was gonna pull this stunt i would've been writing articles and reviews up and down the internet all last year so i can personally say to his face that i'd rather listen to nails across a chalkboard for 2 hours rather than take a look at 1 frame from anymore of his movies...


...then i'd punch square on his nose for being so idiotic.

 

[PWN3R]

I've never seen anyone of his films either.

Why does he have to do Far Cry!?!?! WHY!?!?

he looks like a rapist.

 

[LastSunrise1981]

Boll decides to throw a temper tantrum? Hey Boll, here's a simple thought for you to grasp. Maybe, just maybe if you made better movies that had a plot, acting, emotion, and a great vibe, then perhaps nobody would be ragging on your movies like they do.

Fact is, your movies bloody suck. People would rather have Hannibal Lector eat their brain before they see your movie.

So instead of addressing those mean internet people, why not focus on putting out a great movie? Or has that become too much of an impossible burden as well?

the thing is...even if he were to step into the ring with tarantino and knock his ass down...what the hell does that prove? he may be a better boxer than tarantino, but nobody's saying s#!t about his boxing skills. no matter how many ass kickings he gives QT in the ring, QT can still step out of the ring and make a better film in his sleep than boll could ever dream of making.

i wish i could send a challenge to boll: give me 2 million dollars and i could make a film that does better with the critics and profits more at the box office than his best film.....if i win, he has to stop making movies for, say, 2 years.

2 years is not nearly long enough...

 

[Motown Marvel]

2 years is not nearly long enough...

true, but under the hypothesized assumption that he'd agree to such a challenge, do you really think he'd agree to abstaining from film for longer than 2 years?

 

[JackBauer]

one could only hope... two years without him is better than nothing.

 

[GoldGoblin]

It's a crime that Uwe Boll makes movies.

^How does this guy keep getting money to keep making them.

 

[Nathan]

The Devil finances them.

No, but seriously, found this on Wikipedia.

In the DVD commentary of Alone in the Dark, Boll explains how he funds his films:

"Maybe you know it but it's not so easy to finance movies in total. And the reason I am able to do these kind of movies is I have a tax shelter fund in Germany and if you invest in a movie in Germany you get basically fifty percent back from the Government."

Whereas most directors would no longer be able to acquire the funding to continue projects after box office failures such as Alone in the Dark, Boll is able to acquire funding thanks to German tax laws that reward investments in film. The law allows investors in German-owned films to write off 100% of their investment as a tax deduction; it also allows them to invest borrowed money and write off any fees associated with the loan. The investor is then only required to pay taxes on the profits made by the movie; if the movie loses money, the investor gets a tax writeoff.

I think I could take him in a boxing match...and by that I mean put on boxing gloves, then kick him in the nuts and just wail on him till security pulled me off while yelling about how he'll never ruin any video game movies again

 

[thealiasman2000]

What kind of an ass-clown not only ASKS his critics and haters to beat the crap outta him in a boxing ring, but then invite them to be in his next movie after that( yeah, like any of your haters would want to be in one of your movies. Keep dreaming, shorty)?

I tell you this: those people are come to the ring, say "fck the boxing crap" and beat the **** outta them with everything they have.

Uwe Boll would not agree to do this if he values his life.

Tarantino would be the only haters that later acts as an extra in "POstal", since his appreances in the MTV Movie Awrds show he has no shame.


Say, does anyone from this boards posted reviews about Uwe Boll movies?

 

[ToddIsDead]

This is one of the most rediculous concepts that I've ever heard. I love it!

 

[Erzengel]

How would Uwe boxing prove that he's a good director?

 

[DOG LIPS]

All challengers must be healthy males, weighing between 64 kilograms (140 lbs.) and 86 kilograms (190 lbs.). You will require to be physically examined by a doctor and sign the necessary release forms for liability, etc. You will not be paid or entitled to any residuals
or fees. Your transportation & hotel costs will be covered.

It's a TRAP!!!"

ROFL

You can't say that Uwe Boll has turned to the Dark Side of the Force, since he was there from the start.

Just like Darth Maul.

 

[The Trainman]

I love your randomess Gammy, keep 'em coming!

 

[Mrh7448]

This is hilarious. Wonder if anyone would take him up on it. It's a bit like a school yard. Just goes to show his maturity no wonder his movies come off like a kid with a camera.

If he's using private investors then his flicks must be making money otherwise no one would invest in the next one, but just because something is profitable doesn't mean it's a good product, look at the pet rock.

The only thing I agree with is that people should at least see his movies before they judge them, maybe he'd get a diamond in the rough, but considering his previous attempts are House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark, it's not exactly a stellar track record.

 

[Rac]

Boll is the man!

I originally wanted to say that that guy could probably take Uwe Boll, but Jesus, just look at him
