Poor Uwe...

It's not like anything he directs would EVER be grabbed by anyone else (come on...postal?), so who is he really hurting?

Besides, anyone that enters the ring to beat the shit out of snot-nosed internet critics can't ever be all bad.

He doesn't sound like a bad person, per se, but his movies are fucking horrible. Did you see In The Name of the King? I can't believe a cast like that got duped into making drudge that brutal. It's not like the movies he makes are even bad, they're putrid

I almost wanted to because of Leelee Sobieski.

Almost.

She's underappreciated hotness (http://reviews.starseeker.com/wp-conten ... ieski1.jpg), but still not enough to sit through a movie I know is going to be painful.

Uwe is an asshat.

Read his blog or interviews, he thinks that he's god's gift to directing. He even went as far to bash Harrison Ford in hopes that the publicity would help people go see his horrible "Postal" movie. Uwe Boll is garbage, and none of you should be defending him.

Man, you don't know how brutal it is. That cast is pretty freakin' solid too. Uwe's real problem is he has NO idea how to pace a film. It's not so much the writing, acting, or directing, it's more the pacing. It's so bad it's incredible. It's actually interesting in a way to see just how you can screw up a movie so bad with such a good cast

Leelee is pretty good looking but not 'really hot' or anything

He beat up nerds, I like that much about him. As a director? I don't think I would ever watch any of his movies even if they were directed by Spielberg or Scorsese; so it's a non-issue for me.

Here is a random bump...and an admission. I was wrong. Eric was right.

Uwe Boll is bat shit crazy in real life. He is a walking headache to anyone unfortunate enough to work with him. I can't say why or how I know this tool...but holy shit...fucking knob.
