Please stop Dr. Boll
As we all know, Dr. Uwe Boll has bastardized many video games by making them into terrible movies. A petition was made with 18,000 signatures that he stop making movies.
His response: 18,000 is not enough to convince me.” So how much would be enough? “One million,” Boll said.

You know what to do

Get one million and he'll still keep making them. You see as long as people keep funding these things, he keeps getting paid no matter how badly his films bomb or how terrible they are.
Also the gaming companies are going to keep letting him make movies until people start either boycotting games from that maker or they make enough noise to convince companies to wait until a better film maker comes along.

I believe uwe boll funds the movies himself. some how or another he makes money off of them, and since the game developers make money also they could probably care less, like they say, no such thing as bad publicity.

You've got a point. However, I think I'll add to the mass of signatures anyway, just to show the guy how many people hate him.

Hey, wait guys. Don't be too harsh too judge Boll so quickly. There is still his movie Postal and Far Cry left *sarcasm*

Actually, he was exploiting a tax loophole in German law to fund his movies. I think they changed it recently so he'll have a harder time getting funds for his awetastic movies. I can't even name one movie that Boll produced which was even decent!

Why blame Boll and not those that give him the rights so easily and don't care about whatever's made with that license?
Ubisoft Montreal at least got Bruckheimer to make PoP: Sands of Time.

Boll do the scripts of the movies.
Boll do the photograms.
Boll choose the actors.
Boll is the bastard son of Hitler.

I didn't know he was a doctor.
I wonder how many satisfied patients he had.
