However, he is making so much money from this, he won't stop. If you did a half-assed job and still got paid millions, would you stop?


Well if you wanna keep some kind of dignity... nut sure how that apply on people who might not have one to begin with.

Anyway

Yet another great vid guys and gals! Keep it up!

Agreed! The counter was my favourite part of the video, along with Morgan & his statistics.

Yes! He actually stooped to our level & then made an ass of himself. Thanks for the link! Oh, & I rather doubt any significant number will see his precious "Postal" because we will be too busy watching Indiana Jones which releases the day before.

Really? Because I'd rather see Postal than Indiana Jones IV. Why?
Because it looks like a more entertaining movie. And I mean this as in 'intentionally entertaining,' not 'incidentally entertaining'.

And I mean this seriously.

Also, I just watched Jason X and nearly shit myself laughing.

They can both wait till BD.. I'll be playing GTAIV.

On the subject of the video; I love a good Boll lampooning. Though I have to say its always just a little sweeter when its from Boll himself. It seems, indeed, to be the man's true calling. And though I would never otherwise compare Boll to LRR, if Dr. Boll directed this week's video, it would have been better. Fucking genius even.

Well, computer issues like a corrupted startup file delayed my seeing this, but it's definitely an interesting piece of news I wasn't aware of.

So all we have to do is get a whole mess of people to vote him out?

Easy pickings :o

I wouldn't have such a huge issue with Boll being a bad director. But when he starts being a mysanthropic douchcock, elitist "fungdark", diluted cuntface, or any other combination of persona and genitalia, and ESPECIALLY when he is calling gamers and nerds names, I start getting pissed off.

Boll needs to get off his fucking highhorse and realize that these people whom he looks down upon for not getting his genius also happen to spend billions of dollars on video games as opposed to the small percentage of said budget on "groundbreaking film".

I say Boll works with Tom Cruise, cuz we all saw how Nicole Kidman's career sucked while she was married to him. Maybe the box office poison will rub off into Boll's coffee.

And oddly enough, in unrelated news, I have to go vote in the Pennsylvania Primaries tomorrow for the presidential race.

i have seen a couple of his movies (house of the dead i remember, the other i don't... fortunately)

his movies are pretty bad, his attitude is worse... though, you have to give it to him, he does actually try to do a good job. he just sucks at it. he is just to full of himself to get that he does.

like a wise man once said: if one man calls you an ass, ignore him. if many, it's time to strap on that saddle.

many have, and are going to speak out against and to him. 'uwe, you suck at movies'

truth be told, maybe this should be the start of a revolution... hollywood has been fairly stagnant for many years... (well, maybe it's getting better now, not sure... :p ), and it needs a kick in the pants and a re-imaging. heck, media at large... it's the biggest nut house on the planet.

of course, maybe they are just hamming it up because the internet is so awesome and far more fun to go through, then to watch these crack-pots... except when they are a part of the show... youtube forever :p

Ooh! Ooh! Don't forget the fact that a few Canadians think they know all about America! That's just so pretentious that I can't even find it offensive! In fact, it's funny, Alja.

Just remember this: Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason. The stupid, ignorant Americans do exist, but so do the smart Americans who actually know their history. But in greater numbers. So unless you actually can prove that we don't know about our country, stop shoving thy foot down thy throat.

Once again, wonderful video.

Excellent video; though I really must speak out and make one small criticism of the ad.

The idea, of course, was brilliant. Don't get me wrong on that count. My major issue was the casting choice. Far be it from me to say that ANY of the good looking devils on the LRR crew need help scoring with the ladies, but using Matt went beyond irony and flew straight into the realms of sheer impossibility. I just couldn't believe that Matt would ever get turned down.

Hmm, would he be more of a standard Devil, being of unmatched evil, or more of a Lucifer, a prideful traitor?
I tend to be overly apologetic. Sorry about that.

Um...Also? Who was the pretty lady in the commercial?

Yeah, it would have been really funny if the anti-boll count would have broken 100%.

That and a fierce patriotism based on information available to us readily in any number of forms, such as news, music and comedy - particularly comedy, ie, Rick Mercer - help to give us a pretty good view of our neighbours to the south.


You want a good view? Here ya go:

Imagine Godzilla. Now imagine him dressed as a clown. Now imagine him hitting himself in the face with a giant mallet, forever.

Now imagine him also invading Iraq.

That's pretty much everything you need to understand recent American politics.

Minor mistake in the video
Matt says PSA Uwe Boll came out in 2004. However it came out in August 2005,

Fantastic video. Love a good old Uwe Boll bash, even if Graham admits his movies are worth something!!! :D
It was really too big:

Wait, he's a doctor??? What the heck is he a doctor of?

And also:
I think this would have been even funnier if Graham had continued to intentionally mispronounce "Uwe."
