applebomb : A friend of mine (as well as I, personally) ask that you consider signing the following petition:
link

If you don't know who Uwe Boll is, he is the man responsible for Video Game movie flops such as House of the Dead, Alone in the Dark, Blood Rayne, and so forth. It is not enough to say that he lacks writing and directing talent, but he is also overconfident to the point where he calls fellow (more talented and successful) directors Spielberg and Bay "f-ing retards".

He has also tried to get rights to make a WoW movie and got this reply from Blizzard "'We will not sell the movie rights, not to you, especially not to you."

Further information here:

He promises not to make movies if the petition gets 1,000,000 signatures.
For the sake of preserving the reputations of the games both you and I love, please sign the petition and get that man out of Hollywood.

Thank you!

tarheel91 : Already signed it twice. First time was when there was only about 1200 signatures. I was part of the beginning of a revolution!

TheReplaced : Wow, this Boll guy has a lot of balls. Micheal Bay's Transformers alone had "a $155.4 million opening week" (source). That's kind of fifteen times his biggest movie. If I could spam sign that petition, I would.

Darkwar4ever : I was reading on him yesterday. . . found out that each movie he made had a 50% loss money wise.

However, his investors gets the money back from the governement it his movie fails, also they get a no tax application as well. . . so. . . yeah.

applebomb : Yeah but just because people don't lose all their money doesn't warrent him the right to be an ass.

Darkwar4ever : Yeah but that's the problem. He gets the right to be an ass because of the German government, and I rather doubt that he IS going to stop even if the petition gets 1 million signers. I did sign it, but truthfully, it's all in vain. :[

Look, all he's trying to pull off is another publicity stunt, he declared that petition on his uTube video. That person who created the petition is helping him really, now that he's so famous for being infamous and lame at directing. >.< Y'know what, Dungeon Siege should sue him for making a movie that got such a bad rating, or lord of the rings could sue him under the "copy infringement" right.

Oh and actually the original message from Blizzard was with 3 dots after not to you. I lol'd at the library at that, and the librarian yelled at me. >.<! "Not to you. . . no. Especially not to you." XD

applebomb : Nothing, I repeat, nothing gives anyone the right to publicly criticize others to make up for their own shortcomings. The German government isn't at fault for his finding a loophole. Even if it is a publicity stunt, it would only reflect badly upon him for not ceasing to produce movies. He has neither the charm nor personality to be a likeable bad director like Ed Wood. How he managed to get the rights to produce such horrible films is beyond anyone.
Also, unfortunately, in case you didn't notice, using an ellipsis on MMOT results in a comma. I still don't understand what the point of not allowing ellipsis is but I don't like using spaces between periods since it's grammatically incorrect so I use them at a minimal. Also, I can't use a number pad to make the ellipsis seeing as I am using a laptop. I don't think a comma takes away from the effect, nor is it really relevant.
