You actually like those 90 minute wastes of life he calls films?

For Uwe's sake I hope he's a better boxer than director otherwise he's likely to have his arse handed to him.

This like all of Cuntburger's films is a cheap publicity stunt and I propose we take up a HDC collection fund to possibly retain the services of say....Royce Gracie..hell even Mike Tyson(I'm pretty sure he needs the cash)to pound on Mr.Boll's arse proper.

I've only seen House of the Dead and thought it was crap but had a bunch of laughs at its own expense. I'm just sick of the whole I hate Uwe bullshit. He made some bad films so what? Don't fuckin' watch them there's no need for this bullshit crusade against him.

Well, what the fuck else we gonna do? It gets boring telling everyone what I think about this horror movie or what I bought at Wal-Mart today. I say, let us bitch, and if need be, let us bitch slap.

I'd shank em

Think that he'd stop making movies eventually.

You guys had fun with House of the Dead? Are you serious?

You could say the same thing about remakes though. Don't watch them if you don't like them. The problem with Ewe is the fact that he takes liscenses that could be made into really good movies like Bloodrayne, HotD, Alone in the Dark, Far Cry, Hunter, Fear Effect...

Although if you REALLY think about it would somebody have put these game licenses to better use? All I know is HotD sucked and since I was a big fan of the game hated the movie. Haven't seen the others so I can't comment on their quality but I can make an educated guess. He's the Ed Wood of videogame movies. The cast of Dungeon Seige is crazy cool though with Jason Statham,
Ray Liotta, and Burt Reynolds.

Uwe Boll
"They were better than actors. We looked for local Romanian actresses, but there they are all from the theater and act very broadly. For 150 euros a piece the whores would be naked and do as they were told. It was better.” - Uwe Boll (in an interview for Bloodrayne: The Movie talking about why he chose to use prostitutes instead of actual actresses).

I can see where Elvis is coming from...

but the thing is, when we know about the games, and we know that there can be kickass movies made outta em (look at Resident Evil & Silent Hill), Boll's efforts are really, really disappointing. It sorta breaks the hearts to see such an awesome and splendid game get spoiled rotten on the big screen.

For example, Alone in the Dark. I remember when I played it the first time, I used to glance over my shoulders repeatedly just to make sure there were no beasts prowling in the dark. (aint kidding, some games did have that effect on me when I was younger). And Boll's movie adaptation? Damn its like a trip to Sunday mass. Go, watch, hear from one ear, roll em outta the other, and forget it in a hurry, lest you throw up.

Why watch em? Its sorta hard to not watch a movie which is based on a game which you have played for so long and have grown to love and adore. In Boll's case, you can only hope. I hated HoTD, I hated AitD, still I went to see BloodRayne. I was disappointed again, but I went.

All the guy could do, is make at least a decent adaptation of the game. If no plot comes to mind, why not stick to the plot or premise of the game itself? Even Doom, as much as it sucked, still had some really kick-ass scenes.

I know Urge will have a similar opinion about this too...



I hope I made some sense...my two cents in.
