Sorry, but movies that have a cast of nobodies and a budget smaller than the value of a small car are exepmt from this list. Otherwise you would've seen that and The Room on here. XD

These are all films that had wide releases and have stars that are very well-known. :)

I thought that some of Boll's films barely got a release though? AITD had a limited 2 week run in a few selected cinemas, following poor reviews and zero people turning up.

I know for sure that some of his movies never had cinema time in the UK, or where straight to DVD efforts*.

*One that rank below the crap from the Asylum too. At least they have made some originally intentionally bad modern B-movies that are fun for that reason.

But Bloodrayne, House of the Dead and Dungeon Siege were released on more than 1000 screens. However, just listing those three without listing the rest? You see what I meant by "cheating". ;)

Actually, Uwe tricking a bunch of people into having him publicly humiliate them was the moment I started giving him a little respect. It was fucking *brilliant*. I mean, you'd figure when you have this huge angry neckless kraut who says "IF I SEE ANY OF YOU FUCKING NERDS IN REAL LIFE I'LL KILL YOU", you'd figure they'd make an effort to completely avoid him ( ... )

It's worth noting that he[Uwe "Toilet" Boll] only beat up the critics that he *could* beat up.

It's worth noting that he sent out an invite to Seanbaby. Now personally I don't like, rate or find Seanbaby that funny, however he did win some small respect with me for accepting the challenge but getting turned away. Why? Unlike the other clowns like Lowtax, Seanbaby knows muay Thai kickboxing, and probably could of taken Uwe Boll to the cleaners. Boll ran when he found out.

Yes Uwe Boll is still fine with beating up those that can't fight back but runs like a pussey when confronted with someone that can. Not only is he a shit director, utterly unfunny, and universly hated, but also a coward to boot.

Oh :( I didn't know about Seanbaby. Fuck. Well, I guess I have to go back to thinking uwe is a stupid sack of crap.

Re: i am disappoint roycalbeck December 12 2010, 05:36:21 UTC

Gotta give props to both Boll and Seanbaby on those counts. That said, I agree with everything 'Rift has said about Boll's movies EXCEPT Postal ( ... )

The only reason that he gets away with this crap is because he is using a famous legal tax loophole in Germany. I don't know all the details, but basically supposedly if you make a German movie and the cost is grossly outweighed by the actual gross, the German government actually PAYS you. He's claimed on every single movie he's made AFAIK. Makes you wonder if he just likes being a pompous ass for effect and tanks his movies on purpose. This was all told to me by my husband, who is a German national. I don't know what his source was on this and I don't know if he would still remember since it was years ago, but he's pretty good about checking sources, so i kind of believe it.

Yep, this is actually true. Boll LOSES money if his movie is anywhere in between craptastic and amazing. So he shoots for amazingly craptastic and on rare occasions ends up unintentionally creating merely mediocre material.
