Uwe Boll's Next Masterpiece Arrives In December
- Thread starter vansau
- Start date
Having never played a dungeon siege game, I found In the Name of the King to be a good watch; I'm aware of his track history of making bad video game movies but tbh I don't think I've ever played/cared about any of the games the movies he's produced were based on. ITNoK had a great cast, good sets and costumes. Sure the story was a bit meh but it at least kept me entertained when I had nothing else to do. I'd like to watch the sequel at least once... Considering I watched 'Watchmen' all the way through: I'll give any movie a try. (except the new resident evil movies, I just gave up caring.)
This is why I love it. Lilliard overacting and hamming it up! [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCbz0XNN1SM&feature=related]Dagnius said:
Such DELICIOUS ham!
Russ Meyer films are crap. Troma movies are crap. Uwe Boll movies are crap.
And yet, these become cult classics? Why?
It's easy; they're not trying to be good movies. They're trying to be entertaining movies, and Uwe Boll movies are, in fact, entertaining.
"Oh, well, I suppose we should just be glad that the hero of this movie isn't named "Farmer.""
Except that the word granger is related to farming, too. From Wikipedia, "Granger is a surname of English and French origin. It is an occupational name for a farm bailiff." and its origin word is from the Latin for granary.

You know as much as hating Uwe Boll is the way things are done I'm not totally disgusted by his works. He has some pretty entertaining stuff in there.
Rampage that people mention was actually a good movie. Postal was hilarious, and he is cool enough to make fun of himself in it. One that I don't think anyone heard of was Tunnel Rats which is actually a great take that to war movies always portraying Americans as the heros. And the original ITNOTK was fun to watch with the cheeziness.
So I'll watch it when it comes to redbox, but I sure as hell am not buying it.

Coudn't the Asylum (Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus) start making video game films? at least the special effects would be half good...
Quite frankly, I'm amazed no one has made a Two Worlds II joke yet aside from the little remark in the article itself. After all, Two Worlds is widely regarded as a rather terrible game, and most people didn't even give the "sequel" a second glance simply because of the series it was attached to. That a Uwe Boll movie is now titled 2: Two Worlds really does make me chuckle heartily.vansau said:
well he is getting better, and say what you want they are entertaining if not for sheer stupidity.
maby we'll be surprised.

Oh, how enchanting. Uwe Bolls interpretation of "A Kid in King Arthur's Court."
I look forward to seeing this movie at Gitmo. But who knows? Maybe South Peak will find out about the title and sue Bolls stupid ass until he's incapable of getting back into the film industry. It would be a great act of repentance on South Peak's part after X-Blades and Two Worlds.

What I find more ridiculous is the fact that this whole special forces pulled back in time/dimension kind of thing sounds exactly like that equally banal and dumb story Warner Bros bought from a guy on Reddit about marines heading back to Roman times, which is now in the works to become a movie. And that Reddit thing got a hell of a lot less negativity than this is.
Everyone seems to be scraping the bottom of the barrel nowadays, at least you know this movie will be so bad it will be hilarious. As long as his films suck in hilarious ways I guess he can carry on.

Uwe Boll is just one of those things that gets...well, it's basically when a game has movie potential but is just put into the hands of the wrong person to make it a movie, sorta like Prince of Persia with Disney.
It's a shame really.
It's a shame really.
Maybe because people actually watch them?Critterbot said:
I watched Postal...Twice... I enjoyed it. It was one of those, "The Fuck is going on?" movies, and it was entertaining.
I heard somewhere that he uses some kind of German tax loophole system so that even if (or more appropriately, when) the movie tanks, he still makes a profit.Mr Thin said:
But yeah, it's probably the hipster bastards buying his films to seem "ironic" about their film collection. I hope they're proud of themselves!
Boll also made a bid to direct the upcoming World of Warcraft movie, but was turned away by the owners of the Warcraft franchise, Blizzard Entertainment who said: "We will not sell the movie rights, not to you?especially not to you." Boll responded "Because it?s such a big online game success, maybe a bad movie would destroy that ongoing income, what the company has with it."[17]
