    Fallout Review

    It's been a while since I've done some reviews, so I figure I'm gonna review something that I've been getting into a lot as of late; Fallout! I have finally become integrated into the fandom, and I am happy for it, I've been in love with this series more and more as I get involved with it. I've gotten Fallout 4 in honor of the show (which I intend to review at some point after I finish it) and I

    Afternoon/evening folks!

    Sorry I haven't been checking in as often as I should; rest assured I'm not dead, I'm still here, just been silent as of late. Still working on fics, but also constantly debating with myself on what to focus on next, wanted to make some new stuff that isn't just Shattered or Star Wars. Wanna bring more folks in, do somethin' new.

My Thoughts On Uwe Boll · 6:04pm Aug 1st, 2017

Uwe Boll... wow, this is going to be an interesting topic.

Uwe Boll is one of few people in my life that just drive me so insane, and just gets my blood pumping with how horrid he is. He's right up there with the few people I hate. Right up there with Michael Bay, Jason Friedburg and Aaron Seltzer, and probably every executive and person who works at Blumhouse Studios. ... Know what, just throw Justin Bieber and Sam Pepper up there just to add into the insanity.

Who is Uwe Boll? Well, let me tell you.

As the Nostalgia Critic's mentioned, he's being declared as the new Ed Wood of Hollywood. He's a German director who makes horrible movie after horrible movie and yet SOMEHOW he's still making money. He mostly makes movies that I think are based off of video games but I wouldn't know since I have never played any of these games. Well, maybe a bit of House of the Dead, but that was a long time ago.

Some of his works are House of the Dead, Rampage, Far Cry, and even Bloodrayne, none of which were received well as far as my knowledge goes. For some reason he's still got enough money to keep making movies even though his films bomb, but I'll never understand how or why. Maybe the Nostalgia Critic explained it, but I don't understand it.

But... some of you may be wondering why I don't like him, and I'd be more than happy to explain, in fact a lot of my reasons are the same reasons why people don't like him even today.

First of all, he's a horrible director, that's given. He hasn't improved upon any of his works, and its on every level. He can't tell a story, he can't make good effects, and he can't hire good actors. Few examples come to mind.

In the film Bloodrayne, near the end, one of the main characters is stabbed and he barely flinches! Barely any reaction outside of looking miserable and drunk!

Linkara: My god man, you've just been stabbed! Don't you care?
Spoony: Its like he's barely awake!
NC: What would it take to get an actual emotion from this guy!?

So yeah, horrible director is one of the main reasons I don't like him. But... there's more than that.

I don't know any director who does this, but this is freaking insane. I don't know if he does this with everyone, or if its with a certain person, but he's also well known for challenging his critics to a boxing match and beating the living crap out of them. Classy. :ajbemused:

But... here comes down the main reason. He's an ASSHOLE.

His most recent Kickstarter failed at around 35,000 or some number that's close to it, which meant he didn't get the funding for one of his movies, which was for Rampage 3. And you know how he responded to everyone? He told them all to F*** YOU.

Don't believe me?

...

Nice behavior Boll. You're mad at everyone for not funding their project and you even said F*** you to everyone, including those who actually supported your funding.

You know... did you ever think, maybe there's a reason you aren't being funded? Did you? Did you ever think maybe you were the problem? Maybe it was YOU who had the issues? Maybe you need to learn what went wrong in your movies and take in that advice, and maybe you need to stop starting boxing matches with people just because they don't like your movies. He thinks all of you are the issue here, and WE are the reasons why he can't get his project on the air.

Maybe you should be GRATEFUL that you got some money. You should be grateful, that there are actually people who still are funding your projects, and are actually wanting to see more of your work, and... you're not gonna give it back are you? You're so mad at everyone, you're not going to give back everyone's hard-earned money that they gave you to fund your project. I'm willing to bet he's not going to.

He's so pretentious and self-centered he thinks his projects are better than some 'wizard in the forest' or some 'retarded Marvel's Avengers bull****'. His words, not mine. ... You know there's a reason that The Avengers was a success. Maybe its because they had people who knew what they were doing, maybe its because these people hired good actors, maybe its because they had a strong writing team, or maybe its because, and this is a shot in the dark, A LOT OF PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANTED TO SEE THE AVENGERS ON THE BIG SCREEN.

... *rubs top of eyebrows and sighs*

You see why? Ay-yi-yi... :facehoof:

Bottom line, I don't like him. Simple as that. No class, no maturity, no respect for anyone who even pays for his horrible films, no gratitude, just a horrible... horrible... horrible director.

Well, I've said my part on this guy, I hope not to discuss any more hate-filled stuff today. That's all I've got, thank you for your time, and I hope you all have a nice day.

And uh, if you want, tell me, what are your thoughts on this guy. Any opinion's alright with me. If you like him, that's fine, I will respect your opinion.

Have a good day guys.:twilightsmile:

Clint Eastwood and tom Hanks are awesom.

Just as Ed Balls was a stain on Strictly Come Dancing history who always came back because he was an audience favourite, Uwe Boil will forever be a part of Hollywood infamy...

His kingdom will fall eventually.

Wow, really? He said that about the Avengers? The Avengers are awesome! I have no idea who this guy is, but I don't like him. Now if he were like Tom Hanks, or Clint Eastwood or Adam Sandler, or anyone else who has directed a good movie, then he might be likable.

Potentially unpopular opinion: Postal was... watchable (almost). It's awful, no denying that, but it was strangely entertaining... for the most part.

So bad it's good in an odd way.

Though the opening destroys any and all good will I have towards it.

Though there's a scene of the creator of Postal shooting Uwe Boll.

Point is: don't watch Postal. =)

Aw, cute little Zesty at the end. :twilightsmile:
