    For those here who seem infatuated with him: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/1bxvsb/i_am_uwe_boll_director_producer_and_screenwriter/

     

    Good gems in there:

     

    Hi Uwe, I've seen a lot of your work and I've got a few questions...<p class="entry unvoted" style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 3px; padding: 0px; overflow: hidden; opacity: 1; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">

     

     

    • You have directed some of the worst rated movies of all time. How do you manage to keep getting employed as a director?
    • How do you live with yourself knowing that you're ruining millions of people's dreams?

    Thanks for doing this AMA, we've all wanted to meet the man behind the monster.

    A lot of people like my movies and buy my movies worldwide //// But if your dream was destroyed by making me HOUSE OF THE DEAD ...then your dreams are wrong

    Seems like Danny Trejo should be in a couple of these... dunno if you want to count Badass (it is a mini episode, but I'd totally count it), but he was also in Reindeer Games.

     

    Insane to think he hasn't popped up in these films more often, the guy turns down nothing.

     

    Edit: Oh, he is on the list. And he was in Anaconda too, double damn.

    You know why is because there are so much crappy main stream movies being made each week that when something comes around that's less then mainstream it becomes refreshing to see. I'd reather seen a 10 great movies a year then a 100 so so movies that are most likely playing at any shopping mall movie theater.

     

    I think you're missing the point of the show, then.

    This episode honestly bummed me out a little. After the positive forum reactions I thought the gang would have at least had a little more fun with it. but everyone just seemed mad.

     

    But after my supervisor left for lunch, I did start blasting Spice Girls and did Scary's shoulder dance until I felt better.

     

    Maybe if they had done this movie much earlier, they would have had a bit more fun with it. They're coming hot off of a steaming Boll, they need to re-engage with one of those good crazy movies (i.e. Crank, Roadhouse, Punisher Warzone).

    Starring:

     

    Kevin Spacey

    LL Cool J

    Justin Timberlake (in his so called "acting debut")

    Dylan McDermott

    and Morgan Freeman

     

    Corruption is the law of the land in the every-city of Edison, and the only soul brave enough to peer into the fire and face the wrath of an entire squad of corrupt cops is a fresh-faced journalist in this neo-noir thriller from television director-turned-feature helmer David J. Burke. Joshua Pollack (Justin Timberlake) has discovered a glitch in the system, and as a fledgling journalist he sees it as his duty to expose the corruption. When Pollack misjudges the depth of the authoritative decay and his girlfriend is hospitalized following a brutal attack by the alliance of crooked cops known as F.R.A.T., he soon decides to take action and prove that even those who believe themselves to be above the law still aren't beyond its reach

     

    Yes, F.R.A.T.

     

     

    The film was originally supposed to see a US release in the spring of 2005, however, due to its universal panning from critics after its screening at the Toronto Film Festival, its release to cinemas in the US and most other countries was cancelled.

    Ok, I am posting this strictly for due diligence's sake. This one is going to be too rough for any sane person to watch. I mean, has Hollywood REALLY been aching for a Rob Schieder/Lindsay Lohan vehicle directed by the Sham Wow guy?? If ever there was a question that literally made you ask "How did this get made?" (and also "How the fuck did they get Adrian Brody to agree to this?), this is it. Comes out this weekend, for the curious. I'm going to pass, I certainly don't need to be contributing money to this nightmare.

     

    Also, for hilarity's sake, someone liveblogged their viewing experience.

     

    12:03 p.m. Lohan is dressed as Marilyn Monroe, recreating Monroe's famous subway-grate moment. Only the gentlemen from the ShamWow commercials is sitting below her, aiming a video camera at her genitals.

    12:04 p.m. This just may be Lindsay Lohan's lowest moment.

    12:04 p.m. Come to think of it, this may be my lowest moment, too.

     

    Who thought it could get worse than Liz and Dick.

    A small boy discovers a mystical power as a child. He is then separated from his childhood girlfriend. He grows up to be a computer scientist who is hacking into the most secret national and international secrets, as well as being an acclaimed novel writer. His childhood 'finding' gives him amazing paranormal powers. He is reunited with the childhood girlfriend, mystically, on his hospital deathbed... as his relationship with his current drug addict girlfriend is deteriorating. The passions build between the threesome. Mystical, psychiatric and worldly forces rise to prevent him from revealing the hacked secrets. He attempts to reveal all in a Washington DC large press conference, with 'fateful' and dangerous consequences.

     

    I want to watch this right now.

    In the Cobra episode, Jason made a joke about how Dolph Lundgren can't read (or rather he thinks the punchline of the Expendables 2 "theory of relativity" joke is Dolph Lundgren reading).

     

    In actuality, Dolph Lundgren is actually a pretty sharp guy... and THAT is what that joke was about.

     

    After graduating from high school with straight As, he spent some time in the United States in the late 1970s on various academic scholarships, studying chemistry at Washington State University and Clemson University.[5] Lundgren says that "my dad always told me that if I wanted to make something special with my life, I had to go to America."[5] After serving his mandatory two years in the Swedish Marine Corps at the Amphibious Ranger School, he enrolled at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and graduated with a degree in chemical engineering.[5]

    .....

    In 1982, Lundgren graduated with a master's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Sydney, finishing with the highest results in his class. During his time in Sydney, he earned a living as a bouncer in a nightclub at the infamous King's Cross. He was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1983. However, while preparing for the move to Boston, he was spotted in the nightclub he worked at in Sydney and was hired by Grace Jones as a bodyguard.[17] He fell in love with Jones and their relationship developed dramatically, moving with her to New York City.[18]

    ....

     

    Lundgren has often been the subject of over-billing, with his IQ frequently cited as being around 160 and his height at 6 ft 6 inches (198 cm);[28][129] both of which he has professed to be exaggerated.

    Ok this is unlikely to ever be done, since Patton Oswalt is a friend of the show's.... but holy hell, this one is just full of sadness. Particularly, Patrice O'neil and his character's foreboding story arc. This was his last film, too. Pure sadness.

     

    5% on Rotten Tomatoes. Boxed $382. Terrible amounts of cursing and female nudity in front of small children. Insufferable script and unfollowable story. Available now on Netflix.

    Ok I have to say this:

     

    I was opposed to watching this movie from the start, as Uwe Boll is putrid. His movies aren't fun bad, they're just bad. I got 15 mins into this and had to bail.

     

    BUT

     

    Don't you DARE bring Blind Guardian into this. I know that technically Boll brought them into it by using their song in the end credits, but that is by far the most enjoyable aspect of anything Uwe Boll has ever been associated with. I'm certain that the song has nothing to do with the movie. Skalds and Shadows was recorded and released on their 2006 album (recorded in Sept of 2005) A Twist in the Myth.

     

    "Skalds and Shadows" is sung from the point of view of an Old Norse Skald with an allusion towards the Saga of the Volsungs (specifically the story of Sigurd and Brunhilde) at the end.

     

    This shithole movie came out in 2007. I absolve it of its connection to this movie, and I hope Blind Guardian at least made some decent money off of the royalties.

     

    Long Live Dragon-Slaying Epic Metal.
