Uwe Boll's Postal...

Postby MouthForWar » Mon Sep 17, 2007 2:03 am

I'm sure what I'm about to report isn't really new to some of you, but I felt I needed to post this somewhere and this was the first place that came to mind.

Just when I didn't think I could hate Uwe Boll any more, he pulls this.

Now don't think I'm some sensitive, politically correct blowhard, because I'm not. I love South Park, Team America, John Waters films, and things like that.. I love plenty of tasteless comedy, but this is just not cool. At least South Park often has an important underlying message underneath all the tasteless humor. I love plenty of shows and movies that just have crude humor and just want to piss off do gooders... in fact, I LOVE that stuff...

But showing a window washer ON THE WORLD TRADE CENTER, AS A PLANE CRASHES INTO HIM IN GRAPHIC DETAIL IN ORDER TO GET A LAUGH IS JUST F'D UP. Postal is an action/comedy that involves Bin Laden and George Bush ganging up on some fictional city and postal workers fighting them or something along those lines... which I don't have a problem with that general idea, but when they do stuff like this it crosses a VERY bold line.

It looks like Uwe Boll's career is taking a huge gasp for air and he's playing the controversy card to get attention.... what a douche. Hopefully this will kill his career for good.

That really is F'D up, and I have an ugly sense of humor. Not funny.

If it's any consolation, theater chains in Germany have been refusing to play POSTAL not because of the 9/11 stuff, but because they're afraid the stuff poking fun at Muslims and Islamic fundamentalists will lead to violence on their part. Ironic, huh?

Okay...that was...well...I dunno what to think. It's a jumbled mess.....and yeah, this is basically Uwe Boll's suicide note. I don't mind the garbage, but it seems to me hat this one has so much crap going on, it'll be hard to watch.

It's a f*cking retarded mess....and yes, the trailer describes it as so.
