Title: Stop the boll
Post by: Prophet on April 07, 2008, 02:13:35 pm
Uwe Boll has promised in an interview to stop directing "movies" if this petition grows to one million names.

Yeah I know petitions are useless waste of time and never achive anything. But the man promised to stop. I think thats enought reason to make an exeption. I did, for it is for a good cause...

True. But if you ignore this can you live the rest of your life wondering; what if your vote would have changed it all...?  :D

I don't know, I think that the guy is brilliant. I mean if you can make as much money as he has, with so little effort, and with no quality to speak of, he must be doing something right. Right? :nervous:

Well, at least that's the way Derek Smart's life works.

But I won't sign it. I haven't actually seen any of his movies or anything. Just heard this stories about how he ruins the horror film genre and whatnot.

What? That director who challenged his worst reviewers to a boxing match, then punched the crap out of them? And then put the footage of that to his movies? That Uwe Boll? No way, I want to see more so hilariously outclassed matches!

Wow, that's up a good 10,000 signatures since I signed 2 hours ago. The internet may be slow to wake, but once we get going there ain't nothing that can stop us.

Oh my god. His accent. So terrible.

He's exploiting a German tax law whereby German movies can write off any loss they make.

So he doesn't actually need to make a profit.

I didn't say that his movies needed to make a profit. I said he's made a lot of money (using the tax laws), and he has.
