Uwe Boll, Man, Myth, Legend
"Uwe Boll might be the world's greatest misunderstood filmmaking genius."
hehe ...first time ever the word "genius" and Uwe Boll have been mentioned in the same sentence
Boll's latest project: Postal
"...he's currently in negotiations for the rights to the series, and expects to start shooting Postal sometime next year. Additionally, he'll be writing the script hand-in-hand with the game designers, a first for him and video game movies. It should be interesting to see how Boll handles a game whose gameplay revolves around pure shock value. "
without seeing a script/preview/trailer/screenshots/anything I can almost be 100% sure than it will be a big steaming pile of celluoid crap
here's some interesting tidbits about the man-legend:
- The House of the Dead only brought in a paltry $10.2 million
- Dungeon Siege stars Burt Reynolds ...I'm being serious here
- admitts the script for The House of the Dead was "complete crap,"
- "I really like Oliver Stone, Martin Scorsese, Brian De Palma, Stanley Kubrick, this kind of director" ...too bad he didnt learn anything from them
- "I think the only weak part in Alone in the Dark is maybe Tara Reid's acting"
- "I have an Xbox at home, and so right now I played Postal on PC" ....and he still wants to make Postal?
- "I'm a huge fan of Hitman and Silent Hill [NOOOOOOOO!!!!], but both movies are getting made now. [thank god!]"
- 1UP: Do you think you might ever want to work on a video game?
"It's very interesting and we're talking about Crytech some kind of tie-in with Far Cry if it's possible"
- it's a three hour long movie with sensational script with great story points, great character development ...3 hour movie adaptation of Dungeon Seige ..oh man, that's going to bomb ..no one wants to sit through a 3 hour action movie
- "I never overpay actors" ...there's actors in his movies?
- upcoming movies: Fear Effect (ps1 game), Farcry (why? why?)
btw 1UP needs to fire their editor ..the article is full of typos ...who the hell is Stephen Dolf? (he means Stephen Dorf)
