The controversial director of "Bloodrayne" and the upcoming "Postal" was recently interviewed by FEARnet.com, which informed the German filmmaker of an online petition to get him to stop making movies. Boll scoffed at the then-18,000 signatures and said he would only quit the business if 1 million people signed. Currently there are 205,000 signatures and counting.

I definately can't say I support the man but come on. Atleast there is someone that takes an interest in making video game movies... regardless of how bad they are... instead of writing it off as nothing. What, he makes the video game community look like a joke? please, I think most of the players can do that all on their own. Yeah, he does seem like an A-hole in most interviews but a petition for him to quit, that is honestly just really mean, you know it has to make him feel like shit that after all his work people can do nothing but hate him. smile

Lol, there are plenty of shitty movies that get made, good lord look at 80-90% of what comes out now. Uwe is making the movie Far Cry now, you never know.....it could turn out ok.....Postal may actually be good. Blodrayne? of course it would suck, the game sucked majorly/

Video game movies had bad hype before Uwe even came about so I think people need to suck it up. I always make a point to see game movies, none really get it right so calm down people.

I think most could be, they are just interactive movies anyway, as long as it has a good story. They just need to be done by people than A)know how to make a good movie B) know the material and C).... well, just have sense to begin with.

I just wished that the RE movies focused on one of the actual game characters. I know they wanted to go with something different so that people wouldn't know what to expect(instead of copying a game) but they don't realize that sometimes, that is EXACTLY what we want. Yeah those that love the games will know what's going to happen, does it matter? Most people would love to see a live version of a beloved game on the big screen, and hey, if you do it right and make millions what the hell is the problem!?

Just bought Extinction and watched it for the first time, enjoyed it but it has strayed from the series a bit with the whole "superhuman powers" thing and that kinda saddens me. They did something a bit different with the Silent Hill movie too, but it was absolutely enjoyable and didn't make me think "wow, I'd rather them not make a movie at all".

.... and Jason Statham is reason enough to like Dungeon Siege
