Azrael360: What is more to explain about Uwe Boll? His movies are terrible and he is a joke. Period.
Everything else is on Wikipedia.
People who dislike him and his movies could constructively criticise. Why the hate, and what should he do to improve, etc.

The only question I would have for Uwe Boll is: "Why do you dedicate so much work to making your movies intentionally bad?"

I mean his movies are beyond 'no talent and no effort - bad'. It is unlikely that someone fails so consistently only by chance. This kind of bad can only be intentional.

Unless you want to tell him he is one of the very reasons that Germany's cultivated landscape is ruined. Besides our block parties and GEMA/GEZ.
And ripping money from the government with pseudo-movies is a dick move, since the money came from taxes.

I hate how he handles the investment of his movies, that money could be of better use elsewhere, but thanks to this law in Germany about movies, he takes advantage of it making bad movies on purpose to writeoff taxes. And he's not even ashamed of this...

EDIT: Sorry if I was too harsh in my previous comment.

You are dealing with extreme subjectivity. The English Patient is considered a masterpiece; have you ever tried sitting through that piece of shit!?

The thing is, it's not a matter of improving clumsy movies. It's a matter of making deliberate bad ones for financial reasons. It's basically "The Producers".

This has my attention, I've never seen any of his movies but I know his reputation. Do it gog and make it a live stream!

OP, since you've been in contact with Uwe maybe you can convince him to do a Q&A on the forums here if gog won't do it.

I just e-mailed Uwe with a direct link to this forum thread! :)

If Uwe has a chance to tell his side of the story, that would make for an interesting Q+A session. I really hope he does it.

Oh. This answered my question. Thanks.

The best way to deal with Uwe Boll is to not force him to go Raging Boll on you. You do that by watching what you say and not pulverizing him with negative comments. A simple conversation would do wonders. The problem with nowadays is that everyone makes everything personal on the internet.

I went on my brothers surfing page to see someone tell him after watching him surf, that he is a waste of life and should go kill himself. Since when do they know him and they are now telling him that, jeez.

The only movie of his I've seen was the first Bloodrayne, and because of the imdb reviews I came in with low expectations. After watching it I was pleasantly surprised - it was no Shawshank Redemption or Shindler's List, nor did it try to be, but it was enjoyable for what it was.

I am curious though, why the montage of violence from the movie pasted on at the end?

I know he boxes with his critics. I want to box with him too. The only recondition is that I want to battle him in Pankration:

Because I want to end this.

Think this might be a good deal if both party can reach an agreement.

But i assume the decision is in the hand of somebody who's in higher position than TET.
