Boll Challenges Critics to Fight

Back in February Uwe Boll revealed to Eurogamer.net that he hoped to give his many critics a chance to appear in his next videogame adaptation, Postal: "I'm in the movie - Uwe Boll will play a minor part. I get killed by my 'Boll haters'." He also stated that he'd be happy for the Boll haters to play themselves.

It turns out Boll is a man of his words. In a press release titled "Uwe Boll challenges his critics to 'Put up or shut up!'", Boll states: "I'm fed up with people slamming my films on the Internet without see[ing] them. Many journalists make value judgments on my films based on the opinions of one or two thousand Internet voices. Half of those opinions come from people who've never watched my films."

Boll now challenge his critics to a fight - as in, an actual, physical fight.

"Towards the end of the filming of Postal the five most outspoken critics will be flown into Vancouver and supplied with hotel rooms," the press release states.

"As a guest of Uwe Boll they will be given the chance to be an extra/stand-in in Postal and have the opportunity to put on boxing gloves and enter a BOXING RING to fight Uwe Boll.

"Each critic will have the opportunity to bring down Uwe in a 10-bout match. There will be five matches planned over the last two days of the movie. Certain scenes from these boxing matches will become part of the Postal movie. All five fights will be televised on the Internet and will be covered by international press."

However there are a few rules for entry: first of all, you must be a man weighing between 140 and 190 pounds (63.5 kg - 86 kg). Secondly, you must have "posted on the Internet or have written in magazines/newspapers at least two extremely negative articles in the year 2005."

If you're eligible to enter you need to submit proof of your negative articles to [email protected].

if you dont like Uwe Boll, DONT PAY TO SEE HIS MOVIES, and he'll dry up and blow away.

Videogame movies = bad already. Videogame movies + Uwe Boll = Satan's excrement. X_x

If everyone just REFUSED to buy tickets/DVDs from Uwe Boll, Paul WS Anderson, Brett Ratner etc, Hollywood would be a much better place.

LMFAO... train wreck... Hell I would sit and listen to a train wreck sound effect and be riveted.

In making AVP, Paul(Without Skill)Anderson, single-handedly turned two of the best genre characters in movie history into,at best, B-movie wrestlers.'Aliens' and 'Predator' were PERFECT films, IMO,and Anderson FUBARed em' to hell.

I dont know who this guy is but hey I hope he gets his ass kicked, lol

Lucidmantra6533d ago

Did he make Boogie Nights... LOL. Be glad you haven't seen Uwe's college experiments in filmmaking that he gets paid to much for and people destory good game names with. They are horrible and the scars don't go away... Not even Watching the Loken chic in leather for 90 mins was worth it. They make Daredevil look like an outstanding comic movie.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
