I signed that one yesterday.
It was for the good of mankind.
Here is Mr Boll's response to the petition...warning, he swears a lot. Also, you may be offended at the fact he proclaims himself a genius.

*in German Accent*
"I make good movies. Not like all that social critic George Clooney Bull :daisy: "
:laugh4:
200,000 signatures so far.
Edit: Ok, I signed now do your part.
"I am zee only genius in zee whole ******* business." Brilliant, hilarious. A real-life troll, stirring up the boards. I tip my hat to you, sir, you slaughterer of films. Let's make way for the only genius working in film.
The sound effects remind me of James Bond GoldenEye 007 for the N64!
GoldenEye 007
Nice to see he managed to slip some promotion for his latest "film" into his response. I signed the petition, not that it will matter. He'll just either say an online petition isn't a real petition or demand something ridiculess like 1 billion signatures. :laugh4:
But your missing the real point here. If we reach 1 million signatures then he'll have to respond with another youtube vid for us to laugh at:laugh4:
I have only known who this man is for five minutes, and already I hate him.

"I expect a million votes pro-Boll"
It doesn't surprise me that this comes from a man who fought his critics
in a boxing ring. Would think though that I'm one of many here expecting
he'll have to dream on, as far as that pro-Boll movement is concerned
As bad as his films are, i do like him for this aspect. While most directors would retreat to their ivory towers and whine about how mean film critics are, this guy beats them up in a boxing ring, and then has the nerve to proclaim himself a genius.Quote:

I'd like to see that. [It wasn't until some brief research was conducted that IQuote:

I have never seen a Uwe Boll movie and from what i have heard here mainly i probably won't watch one unless by accident, but i have to admit feeling sympathy for the man. Declaring you'll quit or retire if some certain condition is met is asking for trouble, you can get away with it if the condition isn't met but if it is your forced to retire or make up excuses, one is to stop doing what he loves the other is an embaressing come down.
Meet the newest signature on the pro-boll petition!

Sign here to support Uwe Boll making movies
Grizzly is signature no. 1845, whats that close to 1% of the anti-boll petition, if he could get to say 5-10% of the anti-boll petition to sign the pro-boll petition it would be much easier to ignore...
lol, thank you! It is mostly sympathy with me too, as I do not greatly care for his movies. :P

Alone in the Dark,Bloodrayne,and now Far Cry? What's next on the hit list?
It's madness,I tell you,madness!
Well, it's not like those games were exactly renowned for their storytelling in the first place. I honestly can't understand why people are so offended about Boll making crappy movies about them. Besides, their hasn't been a good movie based on a video game yet, so if he doesn't screw them up someone else will.Quote:

The first Bloodrayne movie took place in the Middle Ages,with its sequel being a freaking Western! We all first met Rayne during World War II,not before.Quote:

And,fortunately with Resident Evil,Paul Anderson followed the above rule,
As for Alone in the Dark and Far Cry,I personally haven't played them,but I do have a cousin who has,and she gets nausiated at any mention of the Alone in the Dark move,and shudders in horror at the remote thought an Uwe Boll adaption of her favorite game.
As for there being no good video game movies,I rather liked Resident Evil,Resident Evil: Apocalypse,Doom,Hitman,and Mortal Kombat.
Warcraft fans rejoice! Uwe Boll will not direct the Warcraft movie!!!

6 months working side-by-side with a WOW maniac that talked about that game every time he opened his mouth left me with a deep hate of that franchise..
my hate of WOW is no rich and creamy I put it on pancakes.
