A tad political... (6/28)

I popped into Rhino yesterday so my girlfriend could pick up Conker: Live and Reloaded and I could grab Destroy All Humans. And interestingly enough, as a promotion for the Alien Shoot 'em up Destroy All Humans, I was given a DVD of Ed Wood's Plan 9 from Outer Space. It's a completely terrible movie (one of the worst ever made), but it was really cool to actually receive the movie for free with the purchase of the video game.

Anywho, my retail pal Phil commented on the movie, which prompted store manager Brad to comment on the movie, which naturally progressed to me commenting on "They Saved Hitler's Brain", and of course, Uwe Boll.

I make no secret of my dislike of Uwe Boll's treatment of old game licenses translated into his crap excuses for movies. And worse yet this chucklenut has managed to get his hands on the BloodRayne license (this one I couldn't care less about really), and Dungeon Siege (which really kinda upsets me). Hopefully... someone somehwere will get a clue and stop Uwe Boll before he manages to turn Dugneon Siege into a space creature shoot'em up with 30 minutes of disassociated bullet-time scatted throughout the movie.

Anywho, I'll stop bitching about the man and bask in his warm glow...

I really, REALLY dislike Uwe Boll's work. He ranks up there with (some of) Quentin Tarentino's work, in terms of movies I dislike.

Something Awful has an article which is the story of someone who worked with Uwe Boll behind the scenes for Alone in the Dark. It's an interesting and funny read, but there's likely bad language (I haven't read the whole thing in awhile).

I think I'll join you in that sentiment...

speaking of which... what's the point of making a movie of Farcry? haven't there been ENOUGH movies made from that mold already?
*shrugs*
bloodrayne, I could care less about... dungeon siege, as long as it doesn't turn out like 13th warrior, or conan, I suppose I could accept it. (slim chances of that, it appears).

anyway, I'll join in the basking of the glow.

dungeon siege will take place in 23rd century earth, everyone will have laser swords, big guns, bimbo blondes, idiotic reporters, people dying in 5 seconds from getting a limb forcibly amputated but surviving being shot in the chest at least twice, and the donkey will in fact be a DEMON FROM HELL CAPABLE OF CALLING FORTH THE LEGIONS OF...HELL!
BloodRayne is no longer a female half vampire that kills nazis...hell she's no longer a red head: she's a blonde that carries guns and has sex with chickens
I swear Uwe Boll acquired the Far Cry license just so he could have the movie take place on an island. Cuz you know islands make the BEST settings!
Hunter: The Reckoning...will also take place on an island

WTF is with this a-hole and islands?!

btw the above is untrue...i hope

Now, I respect your opinion woody, but lets be honest here. Dungeon seige was just a video game, and in MY opinion, not a particularly great one at that. Who cares if some hack turns it into an equally lame movie? Its just $7.50 that will stay in my wallet when I'm not stupid enough to go see it.
