Uwe Boll is a wonderful film maker and a better man.

    Actually, this made me like him a little bit. I thought he was funny (intentional or not?). I want to see the clip reel though!

I can't believe PA got him at PAX.

    WOW. That girl halfway through was harsh. But Uwe actually is quite funny, if slightly deranged. Pity the Postal clip was edited out, I'm mildly curious.

    [Edit] Liki thanks for the clip! I know it's really distasteful and really black humour, but I thought that was hilarious. I think Uwe had a very valid point about how only cartoons have been able to get away with 9/11 parodies so far, but this plays out like a bad taste Naked Gun and we haven't had a film like that in a while.

    I thought the clip was pretty good too, but I can't bring myself to watch 25 minutes of Uwe hazing. Is the general idea that he stays level headed despite everyone throwing crap at him, and he really seems to believe in his bad movies?

    I would have called "not cool" on this one, but seeing as he is making a skit about the plane crashing into WTC, joking about Nazism because he is German, might be playing the same game <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    Also: That was actually funny! The actors did their part well. I was thinking "Will it crash anyway?" then the passengers burst in and grab the stick.
    "NO, WAIT! NO! WE ARE GOING TO THE BAHAMAS!"

    Like Thansal said, every review says that's the only good part in the entire movie, or at least everything that's been seen so far.

    Also, the fake movie reviews were good.

    It's not really surprising. Postal is perfect for Uwe Boll. It's disgusting, plotless, is already completely ruined, and requires no real thought to get. If he can ###### that up, he can ###### ANYTHING up.

    And here my first thought was <b>Unknown World Entertainment</b>, but then the Boll came in rolling in...

    Good or bad movie reviews make me watch them anyway. I judge that for myself, thank you. I also usually don't know or don't care to know who the director is <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />
