Hmmm, what's the best way to ensure no videogame to movie translation will ever be good? I've got it!
Although really, no videogame to movie translation was ever good before.

When he was first announced as director of House Of The Dead (I think, one of these movies anyway), someone registered uweboll.com and sent it to a page just saying "Please stop making movies".

I'm looking forward to Silent Hill. If it is bad I will cry.

Oh, man. The IMDB forums are always so hilarious.

my opinion of "house of the dead" is that it may not have been the best film i have ever seen, but damn it entertained me, you may ask why? it was fun something which "28 days later" & "land of the dead" (do we really need a deep meaning or subtext to every film we see?).

...

are you thinking "is he nuts?" we the awnser is no, one thing that people forget is not everyone has the same opinion on movies, music and games, in fact some peoples taste vary, example;

Anyway, I wish someone would make a movie based on "The Warriors".

Resident Evil (I and II) were quite good. I thought.

Not so much seanyboy. I only saw the first one but it was a stinker. I forgot about silent hill though, that actually looks interesting.

That would never work.

I thought Mortal Kombat was hilarious at the time. I mean, it was totally stupid, but not as stupid as the game itself.

Isn't that PONG movie directed by Jerry Bruckheimer supposed to be coming out soon?

I'm just sad that Uwe Boll didn't have the chance to direct Super Mario Bros.

Final Fantasy wasn't that bad.

I guess I have high standards, I didn't like final fantasy either.

Something I heard about Uwe Boll that explains EVERYTHING:

There's a tax code in germany where if you plunk a whole fuckload of money into a movie that bombs horrifically, it's the best tax shelter in the country. So Uwe, who is exceptionally well connected through his well-to-do family, makes these cinematic shit-stains tailored to flop for the wealthy in germany. Apparently the law that allows this will expire soon (if it hasn't already by now) but allows for all money plunked into a movie BEFORE the expiration which has not yet been completed to still qualify for the tax benefit. That's why he's in production or pre-production for like 6 video game movies right now.
