Man Uwe Boll being so bent out of shape over bad reviews that he challenged his critics to a boxing match is one of my favorite WTF moments of 2000s pop culture.

[@IsmailofeRegime]

It was a smart move. Kept people talking about him and building up his whole "OH NO UWE BOLL IS MAKING SHITTY MOVIES BASED ON MY BELOVED VIDEO GAMES, HOW DARE HE" reputation.

[@lutherheggs451]

He does that because he has boxing training.

[@fmhummel]

I still think this was all marketing. His first movies were basicly tax saving schemes for the companies involved, paired with the aim to make as much money as possible with as little effort as possible. Video games where perfect for that, because you could calculate with a certain guaranteed audience and the big IP names were cheap in the early 2000s. He knew his movies were horrible and kept himself in the media by defending them as high art. The boxing matches are only the logical conclusion of this plan. Again, he knew exactly what he was doing and was taking no risks.

[@J.J.Jameson_of_Daily_Bugle]

Uwe was never intended to be director, he only made movies so he could exploit period of Germans paying with their tax money filmmakers to make movies, in hopes of reviving their cinema, because around that time you didn't have to pay back money if movie flop or performed badly, because point was not profit, but revitalization of German cinema. It's was ripe for loopholes and exploits, and I think I know how they did it.

[@Weaver_Games]

To me House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark were two "so bad they're good" movies. They were his first ones and were just so laughable it's just hilarious. Later in his career I'd say he got better at actually making movies but this took all the fun out of them and just left us with pretty mediocre films with loose ties to their video game sources.

[@axelord1942]

Let's talk about the parallels between Jack Carver in this movie to another Jack from my favorite movie of all time; Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China. They both are uniquely underwhelming in their respective universes yet their presence is required for the events to unfold. Jack Carver and Jack Burton are human McGuffins. They are both simultaneously the focal point of the movie and certainly not the protagonists. Jack Carver, while present, contributed very little to what unfolded although it could be argued that his arrival acted as a catalyst and setting in motion the events of the movie. Carver: 1. Owns a boat. 2. Knows Max. That is essentially what he brings to the Vancouver Monster Island table. Max does all the heavy lifting and then dies. In the same vein, Jack Burton's chief contributions in Big Trouble in Little China are: 1. Owning a truck. 2. Killing Lo Pan. That's basically it. Wang Chi is clearly the protagonist of Big Trouble in Little China as it is his motivation (rescuing kidnapped fiancée) that ultimately drives them to confront the Wing Kong and by extension, Lo Pan. Jack's truck being stolen only serves as a reason to place it at the end of the movie, which is also equally pointless for reasons I won't go into here. I love both movies, but you gotta accept the fact that movies are dumb if you want to be entertained.

@@pastichiorocker Tunnel rats was pretty bad in terms of actual history but eh

[@pastichiorocker]

@@_Dat_Edgy_Boi_ Various internet sites tell me this is mostly related to their choice of clothing and that the soldiers are too big to fit in the small tunnels. in terms of actual history it does a pretty good job, no worse than other big budget war movies.

[@cartercolson7975]

this is the same guy that did rampage? wow thats crazy i remember watching rampage and the 2nd one (i think he made that one too) i knew uwe made far cry from researching it but totally forgot he made the rampage movies those were good movies i will admit

[@moonlightbliss4791]

I actually watched this after I saw a Far Cry review you made. You mentioned it and I had to check it out. Gotta be honest. I liked it.

[@kokoloko8423]

First time I ever heard someone referring to Udo Kier as "The guy from Ace Ventura" lmao

[@Luciferkragoth]

To add some context, as I understand it. Uwe Boll didn't quite buy game rights himself In order to make profitable movies from them, as much as they were acquired through a German Government film fund. It's also how he kept making adaptations even after they just kept flopping. It's a way to keep german film crews (and sometimes actors) employed. I may not be completely accurate since I'm paraphrasing from past knowledge.

[@RedMenace0]

im pretty sure the guy who plays carver is that guy from Inglorious Basterds who killed all the nazi officers in their sleep

[@milesipka]

The true way to pronounce Uwe is "Oova", which makes sense since it rhymes with "Hoover" - the British term for vacuum cleaner. As in Boll's movies suck harder than a vacuum cleaner.

Jack looks like B.J. from Wolfenstein New Order and later games.He only needs more muscle mass to completely pull it off.

[@GazettiSF]

I’m glad he caught anthony bourdain. I remember seeing the episode of his show were he went to this set.

General Hammond really fell off the wagon once the President cancelled the Stargate Program.

[@mariusschleicher5046]

Propably the one and only movie, I really feel how my brain cells did suicide.

[@Phantron]

The one and only movie about what now?

[@hadowxsamurai4531]

Strange that I watched this when I was smaller but I never knew it was based on farcry

[@LiceDuhaPRODUCTIONS]

*Til Schweiger is the Sylvester Stallone in Germany dude*

[@nachofish4477]

he is very much hated in germany tho people joke a lot about how most the movies he directed are just award baits without any actual value behind them yet he pretends like he is some kind of underated master director aso more like the kanye west of germany

[@dracoony]

Ich schmunzelte ;)

[@realcyphox5919]

some of his movies were pretty successful in germany, kokowäh, keinohrhasen, honig im kopf, der eisbär, knocking on heavens door etc the main reason people on the internet dislike him, is because.... well, the internet... it just became a "thing" to hate him. he's not the best actor and the way he talks is kinda weird, but he's by far not the untalented idiot people want him to be

[@dracoony]

@@realcyphox5919 I still love him in "Manta Manta". Boah ey! ;)

[@HSVPatzz]

I remember watching this movie when I was young and being excited. And watching it thinking wtf is this. But his tunnel Rats movie wasn’t too bad though.

[@356Krisu]

Fun fact: Dr. Kierger actor played Yuri in Red Alert 2

[@reggiebenes2916]

I just smoked a "Uwe Bowl". Left me kinda high, but confused and disappointed.

[@gownerjones]

Fun fact: Uwe Boll has a legit PhD.

[@sazon_completo]

I remember watching this movie with my dad and both of us being so angry by the time it was done.

[@ruffalo1643]

No bro Postal: The Movie is the definition of insanity

[@jamesnorth6372]

Now review Uwe Boll's masterpiece, Postal, aka the only videogame movie officially considered canon by the game's creators.

[@milesipka]

I've seen that film and always get nervous about a movie that starts off with a 9/11 joke. I was sixteen when the Twin Towers fell and never like it when someone tries to play the deaths of nearly 3000 people for laughs. That being said, the joke *was* funny, but only for those with the nastiest sense of humour ever.

[@savagemadman2054]

It looks like it was filmed around the islands off the coast north-west of Vancouver, probably in the spring by the look of that river scene. Its not tropical but to be fair it almost never snows - it's just constantly grey and wet. The cast minus the Germans seem to be pulled from the Vancouver area pool - quite a few of them are recognizable from shows that are/were produced here. Uwe Boll lives here in the Vancouver area and has (or had?) a restaurant that is actually very well regarded.

[@greensky5328]

His super secret bio-weapon is skinheads.

[@d0nutwaffle]

The movie is a far cry from the game.

[@a.k8185]

nice to see you creating a review of a video-game-movie.

[@stavros2956]

Shame, there seems to be some good gore special effects in this movie. Still i think Uwe is kinda the lovable uncle that makes weird video game movies that everyone would love to have.

[@b3ans4eva]

You forgot to mention Stuttering Craig & Handsome Tom from the early days of Screw Attack made cameos in this film. Then Craig backstabbed Tom out of the website when the latter was on holiday.

[@2HeadedHero]

Just waiting for Far Cry: The Movie: The Game to finally come out

[@Hightower2804TP]

I'll wait for Far Cry: The Movie: The Game: The Motion Picture

[@coltforceplayz5285]

The Web Series, The Graphic Novel l, the Choose Your Own Adventure Story

[@DamonLaRiche]

@Gmanlives Kwansu dude!!! I absolutely love Surf Ninjas 😂 I literally thought I was one of the only people to ever see that movie. I rented the shit out of it from Blockbuster. Great video as always. I live for your Mom jokes!

[@PuppyTeethVEVO69]

God I know it's so lame but I will ALWAYS be stoked when someone mentions Vancouver by name. Everything is filmed here, but nobody mentions it lmao. I actually recognize a lot of these smaller off-the-map places, nice that it's not just "Downtown Cityville" for once

[@CantankerousDave]

Toronto residents feel the same.
