I'll admit that I didn't even know he tried launching something via Kickstarter...

Uwe Boll is a fething legend...maybe a moron. I'm not sure.

He says he's done with crowd funding.. but he was supposed to be done with making films (after a petition gained 1m signatures).

He did, but it failed there as well.

His accent and swearing are much more amusing than that movie

On the other hand we now have a frustrated, rejected German artist with a grudge against the world. We should watch him to make sure he stays away from politics

I am not a fan of Uwe Boll, but credit where credit is due. Postal was the best movie adaptation of a video game, ever. Rampage was actually a pretty solid movie. And In the Name of the King was kind of fun.

What a tool

He may have a veiled point about courruption in Hollywood and how award shows are gak somewhere in his idiot rant but honestly 'Iron man never existing' - what? Like most of his filmography based on utter gak that as well never existed

'We have to kill the fething rich' - says a man who just admitted he has enough money to play golf until he's dead

The whiney egotistical 'I'm an artist/visionary' self deluded mole hill of human ineptitude that is Uwe never ceases to amaze me. 'Rampage 3 is an important movie' Yeah, about as important as your next game of golf you fleshy crotch sack of fail

Well, hopefully the world's one true nightmare of a Michael Bay produced, Uwe Boll directed feature will never take shape

As an aside I always put his films (all of them) in the 'so bad they're almost good' category, but who am I kidding? At best they're watchable gak that mean about as much as a piece of lint IMHO

I am always surprised as how he, for someone who's been living in the US for quite a few years now, manages to keep such an amazingly bad accent. At this point, I wonder if he's faking it for comedical purpose.

Only if you like gakky movie adaptations from video games, apparently . His highest rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes has a 25%.....

And here's the overview critique on his worst, Alone in the Dark, which received a 1%:


Critics Consensus: Inept on almost every level, Alone in the Dark may not work as a thriller, but it's good for some head-slapping, incredulous laughter.

This is a good point. The Slavic in me has a sudden desire to go lie down in a ditch with a PPS 41 and a nice bottle of Vodka. For the Motherland!

This guy is a fething legend !

Some years ago he was getting such bad reviews on some online blogs/film review sites that he challenged a bunch of them to a boxing match.

They agreed, obviously didn't know that he had been in a boxing team in the army in his younger days..
