Uwe Boll Paid To Be in Postal 3

they should try to make a movie then they can criticize him," Devi said.

I'm sorry, I don't usually let hyperboles get under my skin, but this is one I refuse to accept.

gamer hate for uwe boll + game that lets u do...things to uwe boll = potential million seller, & probably more ammunition for the "zomg games are corrupting the youth" brigade

No I set the Games are Corrupting the youth Brigade on fire in the last one. So I don't think they'll be complaining much.
Although now I am forced to buy this game simply to watch a badger eat that pricks face.

God Postal 3 was looking abysmal enough. Now we've got the franchise destroyer himself appearing in it.

Hmm, I'm gonna buy the game, rush through the levels until I get to maim/torture/mutilate...etc Dr. Boll, save the game...killify the shit out of him, and reload...again, and again, and again...

I guess I'll never see the ending, but it's gonna be worth it!

Ok, who the hell keeps giving Boll money? He somehow keeps getting funding for his movies, and he apparently has enough spare change lying around to be able to pay to be in a videogame. Seriously, where does this money come from? Every one of his films has tanked at the box office; I just can't figure this out.

He developed some kind of more-or-less legal Tax scam.There are some funds made by the German government for german filmmakers who mainly work abroad.You know, so German movies get appreciated more.Sadly, the good Dr.Boll is pretty much the only one using it.While this isn't his only method of his funding, it was enough to *cough* establish *cough* himself in the international Movie market.
Funny thing is nobody in Germany gives two Fucks about Uwe Boll.I'm pretty sure none of his received a theatric release over here.

Now if they can get Jack Thompson, you'd have the perfect nerd-rage game. Uwe Boll actually just earned some "cool" points, doing something that Jack wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole.

A game that lets you graphically kill Uwe Bol over and over? It might be worth buying just for that.

 

[Reaperman64]

Its like videogames have a sense of irony...and something...cant form coherent sentence....must buy postall...

"...I don't agree with those who scream for his head, they should try to make a movie then they can criticize him," Devi said.

Why do people continue to think that this is a valid excuse? Should I have to paint my own masterpiece before I can form an opinion on the works of Monet? Do I have to build my own car from scratch before I can criticize Scion's design? There is no prerequisite for having an opinion on something, experience or no.

Get Tarantino involved in his first game, can have a side-story called "Koll Boll" or something.

 

[NeedAUserName]

I hope he'll be a killable NPC. Bwahaha.

That alone is still not enough to make me buy Postal 3. Not that the series are bad, I just get bored.

Well, I think your the only one, that games gonna go of the shelves faster then hot cakes at an anti weight watchers meeting. (Score! I didn't think I would ever get to use the simile CantFakeTheFunk used (Its an amazing simile))

 

[TsunamiWombat]

IF THIS GAME LETS YOU SHOOT UWE BOLL...

My god... It will sell so much it will destroy the earth...

 

[dochmbi]

So, I get to KILL UWE BOLL?

I must have this game. I bet that even if people don't actually buy this, the piracy rate will be through the roof due to Uwe's "fans" wanting to "play" with him.

Oh this is true. The first though I had was: "Well, now I'm going to have to at least download this game"

One more thing, though - where the hell does Uwe Boll keep getting money?

Answer:

Spoiler

Boll is able to acquire funding thanks to German tax laws that reward investments in film. The law allows investors in German-owned films to write off 100% of their investment as a tax deduction; it also allows them to invest borrowed money and write off any fees associated with the loan. The investor is then only required to pay taxes on the profits made by the movie; if the movie loses money, the investor gets a tax writeoff.

I still don't get this argument.
See, the thing is, I'm not claiming to be a director.
I am a student. I do it fairly well.
He is a screenwriter/director. He is shitty at it.

"...I don't agree with those who scream for his head, they should try to make a movie then they can criticize him," Devi said.

So if I sit down to eat a meal at a restaurant, and it's undercooked, salty, and swimming in gravy that smells like a rancid sock, I can't criticize the chef because I'm not one? Sorry, I can't buy that.

Thank you for writing this so that I didn't have to. Although, I would have put it more as "You're complaining that the suspension bridge collapsed and killed hundreds? Let's see you make a bridge and keep it from falling down!"

Now, back on topic. I predict a veritable flood of videos on YouTube coming up with ever more creative and vicious ways of helping our favorite filmmaker shuffle off his virtual mortal coil.
