FEARnet: Are you aware that there is a petition online, signed by 18,000 people, requesting that you stop making movies?
Uwe Boll: Yeah, I know that. 18,000 is not enough to convince me.
FEARnet: How many would it take?
Uwe Boll: One million. Now we have a new goal.

He's responsible for many, many, many shitty movies. He tends to do "video game" movies.

He also called out people who criticized his movies online a few years ago to a "fun" boxing match to duke it out. Except he made it a real boxing match and beat the shit out of them. Lowtax from SA was one of them.

Going by the majority of ratings and reviews given in the 'last movie you saw' thread I'm surprised Uwe Boll isn't revered as a God around here.

Boy, he sure beat the hell out of a 17 year old kid and a couple of nerds.
I don't know what those retards were thinking to agree to box him anyway though.

PR stunt for who though? They were going up against a semi-pro boxer whose name is also synonymous with the word 'dickhead.' =\

I had wondered about his boxing, his choosing an activity he *knew* he would own opponents with just adds credence to the "dickhead" sentiment.

Why not just let him make movies? Are you so bothered if some cuntrag desecrates a game you played?
If you don't like the movies, don't watch them. Then they don't make money. Nerds don't seem to understand this.

but nerds seem to understand that if the game that they like was licensed out to a better (maybe even cheaper?) director, they would do a better job. and then, the movie would make the nerds happy because it would show a cool version of their game.

Here's why the people signing this thing are idiots. Uwe Boll is not obligated to do anything once there is a million signatures. In fact, what I guarantee he'll do is leverage these one million signatures to do more movie projects under the argument of "these are people who care about the movies I make".
There's no such thing as bad publicity.
