Uwe Boll is pissed off!

Our favorite German director has failed to crowdfund the second sequel to Rampage, so he's lashing it out on all of us in two epic rants.

Couldn't embedded other screed.

I'm sure we'll respond to this quite well.

Immature of him, yet hilarious.

Well, this is one way to create publicity for your failing Kickstarter.

Too bad, I was kind of looking forward to another Rampage.

Is it worth actually watching those videos, or is it just a grown man throwing a tantrum?

It's Uwe Boll. It's a grown man throwing a tantrum.

That's precisely why it's worth watching. Grown men throwing tantrums is endlessly hilarious.

Wow, what a salty crybaby.

He reminds me of a message board troll who yells at everyone and calls everyone else a troll.

Basically, he's saying he's the only one who's NOT an idiot hack filmmaker.

This was oddly reminiscing of Chris-chan's videos.

It's Uwe Boll. This is the guy that responds to perfectly legitimate criticisms with beating up critics in boxing matches instead of respectful debate.

Then he stopped when Seanbaby stepped up because he knew MMA.

I would have paid good money to see Seanbaby whoop his ass. Preferably with a snappy one-liner.

Haven't watched them myself, but as I understand, the Rampage movies are the only decent things he's ever filmed, so it's ironically kind of funny those are the ones he can't continue with.

I have no idea why the Rampage movies are so popular. They're Hatred in cinematic form.

I was thinking that exact same thing.

Hahaha, Small Name, Big Ego much?

This. Only difference I can think of is that Hatred is a run-of-the-mill top-down shooter filled with Narm-tastic voice acting. Rampage, on the other hand, is just a mean-spirited movie made by the modern Ed Wood. I have no idea why he thought Kickstarter was a good idea in the first place given his reputation and I think any chance of him making a return is pretty much dead.

Let's all have a party!!! Got Ignition by R. Kelly to start the playlist...

...

I just checked Rotten Tomatoes. It has a 51% User Review but no score from critics.

Boxofficemojo has never heard of it.

...this movie has never been in theaters or garnered a critical reception. It's a direct-to-video film made by Uwe Boll, published by Uwe Boll, and I think funded from Kickstarter. A sizable majority of the people who've watched this film are the kind of people who would pay money for something like this to exist, while the people who would think it's dumb shit have simply never watched it.

Of course it has a good reputation. The only people talking about it are the ones who want to watch this kind of film. It's reputed solely by word-of-mouth from its fanbase.

Let's be careful with this topic. It's not bashing him per say but "creator has a tantrum" will probably be considered off-topic.

I never saw Rampage for one reason—I heard it was ok. Uwe Boll has actually improved as a director but he's still not a particularly good one. His first video game films were wonderfully So Bad, It's Good and utterly deranged.

Just wasn't really interested in watching a mediocre film because he improved from "teh worst director EVAR" status.

This.

And maybe we should rename this 'Uwe Boll Thread' or something, in order to make sure this doesn't turn out to be a 'hurr durr Uwe is a coward'.

This thread doesn't look like it's going anywhere it's not been by now. Locking it.
