Now I know I shouldn't be doing this without a imagehosting website, but I couldn't resist. (a few naughty words, but well worth the point)

All he is directing is video game movies. So far, to my knowledge, he has done House of the Dead, and Alone in the Dark. He is currently working on Bloodrayne, which will be out later this year I'm pretty sure.
He tried to aquire the rights to MGS for a film, but when he went to Hideo Kojima he said no (thank God)
... have any of you played Alone in the Dark? Have any of you seen Alone in the Dark the film? THE MOVIE IS NOTHING LIKE THE GAME. House of the Dead had zombies, which the game did, but thats about it, not the same setting, characters, nothing. He just threw a bunch of random crap into it and was like "lollookicanmakemoviesthataresupposedtobeaboutvideogamespullmyfinger"
Check out the imdb movie fourms... they are being flooded with death-threats and hate towards him, rofl.
It would of been cool if HOTD was actually made into a cool, good movie, but was it? Hell no, and Bloodrayne will be the same... he gets all these high-profile actors to do his dirty work, and it turns out garbage. (Alone in the Dark - Stephen Dorff (Blade) Christan Slater (Broken Arrow, and a ton of other movies I can't name) and Tera Reid (drunken skank from American Pie). For Bloodrayne, Kristanna Loken (Terminator 3) along with Michelle Rodiguez (Resident Evil and S.W.A.T) and Ben Kingsley (a ton of movies) are in it... oh ya, Billy Zane too.
More important then the actors he hires, the movies ARE NEARLY NOTHING (100% in Alone in the Dark's case) LIKE THE GAMES. He just doesn't get it.
In short, I can't stand him and if I could wish upon a star, I'd like to see him go very far, FAR FROM THE FILM INDUSTRY, NEVER TO RETURN.
I ask because the movie appears to have absolutely nothing in common with the game(s)... the original game was pretty much an homage to HP Lovecraft... this movie seems like just a mindless monster flick...
as an aside, I just looked up the reviews, and I have NEVER seen such bad reviews... I have looked at the critical consensus at movies.yahoo.com for basically every movie that's come out in the last 3 or 4 years (that I've even considered seeing), and nothing has come close to a D- AVERAGE from the critics and a D+ from yahoo users...
the only movie anybody ever remembers him in is Titanic, which is horrible.
Hmm yea I heard that too. Dolf Lundgren and Alec Baldwin are gonna be the main stars.
I think Alec Baldwin is gonna be an onos or something. Yea I know the aliens are never in the movie but hes just going to be a background character milling about in the distance doing random things....
Like smoking crack for example..
I know I know, Some of you might be asking.
"where are they gonna get all the crack from?"
Hmm Well I would think that Uwe Boll must have a pretty decent sized stash somewhere.
and OMG
Not only is he going to screw up Bloodryane but hes directing Far Cry the movie as well?
*Cries
My friends and fellow gamers.
Its a sad, sad time that we live in...

P.S. Resident Evil 1 rocked
Redisent Evil 2 was the suckiest movie I've seen lately.
No, because he is like a plague. It will never end.
GOD HAVE MERCY
I weep for the children.
*Ninja-Edit* I think I should start an online petition stating that he is to never make movies again.
I didnt need to say anymore, he gave a sad face and we never mentioned anything pretaining to that movie again for the rest of the night

I'm guessing it's German so try ooh-vuh >_>
I consider myself lucky enough to have never seen one of his movies. Are they really that bad? =P

Yes, I hate this man, and I hate the bad name he gives games. Does he even play any of these games? Does he understand what the hell he is doing to them? To us? It's so humiliating to think some people associate that BS with the actual game.

BOLL: Yes, I'm going tomorrow to the theater. (Laughs) Don't tell it to the people, they will chase me and track me down and kill me. (Laughs) If they know that I'm in LA going to different screenings, they will try to get a hold of me. (Laughs)<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That's some great PR, talk about how people hate you for making crappy movies. At least I guess he realizes that people hate him.
<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->IGNFF: So, when the reaction for this movie comes out, is that going to pose potential problems for the distribution of BloodRayne?
BOLL: No, BloodRayne is a different movie, so I don't know what happens with BloodRayne. Lions Gate wants this movie, so we go from there. Various studios want to see it when it's finished, but it's not finished. So I can do it with Lions Gate again, or I wait and check out what the studios say. So BloodRayne has maybe the best cast of a movie based on a videogame. There are like eight names in the movie and not one or two. Who knows? And it's more period piece in a way because it's a vampire movie in the 1700's. So I don't know how they react to it. <b>It's very, very gory. It's really brutal and there is stuff in it, we have a really, really hot sex scene with Lokken where she is completely naked.</b><!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
You know it's sad when the best thing a director can say about his movie is a sex scene.
