“God forbid someone actually watches a Boll film with an open mind and penchant for fun.

No, you all like your epic, unnatural dialogue a la Tarantino and your music video editing a la Robert Cummings (Zombie), No one can recognize a fun film anymore.”

Comparing Uwe Boll against other terrible film makers (in my opinion) might have seemed like a reasonable ploy to make him seem good, but unfortunately he stacks short against even those.

Uwe Boll is produces (directs?) cheese-fests. He hasn’t a clue about making anything natural (dialog, or otherwise). I have yet to see one Uwe Boll flick (and boy, have I seen more than I care to) that I would consider fun.

“You all fail at watching film. Someone watch a Boll film without trying excessively hard to find a flaw. I double dog dare you.”

Sure, I try my best to enjoy films, even bad ones. I enjoy having a good time. If I’m going to (or have to) sit through something, I really want to feel like I wasn’t getting a vasectomy (or maybe a pap for the ladies?) during the film. But damned if I can manage to enjoy anything about any of his movies.

“Alone in the Dark was a perfectly fine movie when you take the budget into consideration.”

I beg to differ. I’m only glad I didn’t pay to watch it.

He is not dead. I will go and tell everyone about pro Boll petitions! We will watch his movies and everyone here saying something against him sucks. You are so blind and stupid..you donÂ´t even understand the easiest things he is entitled criticising

Where is the petition to sign against this. What about the people who want him to keep going?

People who can’t appreciate a Boll film don’t know how to watch movies. Everyone is afraid to admit they enjoyed Heart of America and House of the Dead because of what someone else thinks.

God forbid someone actually watches a Boll film with an open mind and penchant for fun.

Alone in the Dark was a perfectly fine movie when you take the budget into consideration. Bloodrayne was pretty bad but still way better than Spiderman 3.

I guess because he makes movies based on games which have a strong fan base people started to knock him and now it is considered silly to like anything about his movies … of course it could be that Europeans get his movies and Americans don’t?

I don’t know, “Postal” looks just anarchistic enough to be enjoyable.
