Got my first issue on my new subscription to WIRED today and of all things- Uwe Boll has a freakin' feature article. It's all from the angle of how- and I quote- "the world's worst director" found a way to live out every bad director's fantasy and fight his critics. I haven't read it yet but you have to admit Uwe is a phnomenon, love him or hate him. I think a world without Uwe would be a sadder, grayer place.

Judging by the quality of his previous efforts, it has to!

Well, the article basically made him out to be a talentless cretin who literally beat defensless nerdy critics because the didn't like his movies in a brilliant publicity move to hang onto a career. Which is pretty much the case. The article didn't go into why he's a diva of terrible filmmaking the likes of which haven't been seen since Ed Wood. According to the article his grosses are decreasing significantly for each release while his budgets are getting bigger. So you may not have Uwe to kick around much longer!

Oh, yeah?


IN THE NAME OF THE KING: A DUNGEON SIEGE TALE - currently seeking a distributor

SEED - original horror film still in post-production and seeking distribution, rough cut screened at the American Film Market to almost universal disdain

POSTAL - in post-production

BLOODRAYNE 2: DELIVERANCE - currently filming, Wild West setting with Bloodrayne battling a vampiric Billy the Kid, Natassia Malthe replaces Kristanna Loken in the title role, DVD release already slated for May 2007

ALONE IN THE DARK 2 - pre-production, direct-to-DVD, Boll only set to produce, storyline will actually tie into a new AITD game coming out next year, no word yet as to whether or not Christian Slater will return

FAR CRY - script completed, production slated to start sometime late next year, Jason Statham is reportedly waiting to see how the DUNGEON SIEGE distribution works out before deciding whether or not to star

BLOODRAYNE 3 - Boll has gone on the record stating that if the sequel does well on DVD that plans are to film a third film and this one will actually follow the storyline of the game by having her battling Nazis in WW2 Germany

Plus two more mystery projects in the works: one a drama about the decline of the social security system and the rise of poverty in America and the other a war film about the "tunnel rats" during Vietnam.

Plus...

RAGING BOLL - independently produced documentary chronicling the cult phenomenon behind the world’s most hated director, still in production

As hard as it might be to believe, Boll isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Well, I guess no further proof is needed to demonstrate that Uwe works far outside the standard laws of the universe when it comes to... everything, really.

Wow. Now that seems more appropriate.
