Uwe Boll: Genius or Satan?

According to Bloody-Disgusting.com, director Uwe Boll has announced that he will release his newest film Postal, on the same weekend as Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to "go out and destroy Indiana Jones in the Box Office."

Riiiiiiight. Good luck with that, Uwe.

Mr. Boll has brought us many box office blockbusters, such as Alone in the Dark ($8 mil worldwide), BloodRayne ($2 mil worldwide) and In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (about $5 mil). Of course, those three films combined cost an estimated $105 million to make.

So what do you think: Is Indy really in any danger on May 23? Are you going to skip the crowds at Crystal Skull for Postal? And how DOES Uwe Boll keep getting funding for new films?

Is there any still that makes me less excited about seeing this movie? Indy ridiculously toting around an RPG. Shia LeBeouf looking too modern. A breakfast cereal commmercial refugee in the driver's seat. Yeah, this should give Raiders a run for its money.

Be careful. Boll likes to punch people who don't like his movies: http://tinyurl.com/kkya8

Victor, that's just further proof: You don't mess with fanboys. (Or fangirls.)

Boll says he gets his moolah from private investors, mostly from Germany. But it's not surprising that he likes to fight people. He's despised in both the film and gaming industries. And it was either G4 or Spike's video game awards that created the category Most Deserving of a Uwe Boll Film award for crappy games. Ouch.
