In defense of Uwe Boll - Blu-ray Forum

redtornado · 12-25-2008, 02:11 PM

I know most people on this board will lynch me for saying this, but I actually like a few of his movies. I just bought "In the Name of the King" on blu and my wife and I would really like to get "Alone in the Dark" and "Bloodrayne" in the future. I can only hope for a "House of the Dead" release soon.

Sure theyre not perfect movies, but you have to take them as what they are. And yes, he does make crap movies. One only needs to watch Bloodrayne 2 and Postal to see how bad he can be.

Im sure Im not the only one who feels this way.

i had high hopes for Bloodrayne but i think they both suck

Uwe Boll's movies have no absolutely no redeeming value to me. I think the world would be a better place if he never became a director. I hate his movies that much. Just, awful...

House of the Dead gives me so much pleasure.

It's just so f'ing bad on all cylinders. I love it, but yeah he sucks.

I saw Bloodrayne and I consider it among the worst movies I've ever seen.

However, In the Name of the King was on one of my movie channels the other day, so I flipped over to see how bad it was. To my surprise, I ended up enjoying it, and watched it all the way to the end. I'm a big Jason Statham and Ron Perlman fan, but still, I was surprised, it wasn't THAT bad.

I loved Postal. I have it on Blu Ray

Infinite Monkey Theorem.

Law of averages say he has to make a decent movie eventually. Of course I think the monkeys have a better chance than him.

I was actually excited to see Bloodrayne, and then it crushed every ounce of hype left in me.
