Uwe Boll to stop making movies...

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

If a million people sign the petition.

A million peeps will sign it, but I don't expect him to keep his word.

I'd like to believe they'll make it to 1,000,000, but I doubt it.

He'll claim most of the names are made up or something.

The only reason he's throwing down this gauntlet is cos he's got some plan to benefit from it. It is rigged in some way, shape, or form. I guarantee there's a catch. & I know there's at least a million peeps who'd sign this.

I don't care if his plan is to personally cock punch everyone that signs it, that's not too small a price to pay to have him just stop.

There's no way he's gonna just stop. Or he'll find some loophole where he only "advises" the new director or something. He'll be a creative consultant or some shyte.

I never thought I'd say this. He appears to have some form of intelligence. His slams on the dudes he mentions are fairly accurate. This only makes me more certain he'll not honour the spirit of this agreement if/when the 1,000,000 signatures get collected. This is purely a publicity thing. I assure you, it's a genuine as Denis Rodman's wedding.

EDIT : Seriously, if he doesn't have a shitty flick coming out in a month, does he even make this challenge to the net?

I actually respect him as a person after that clip. Sure, he's a pompous ass, but at least he isn't afraid to point out the crap other folks are making.

He still makes shitty films, but hey, maybe the world needs a Uwe Boll to offset a Spielberg.
