Kojima Dismisses Boll As MGS Director

Joystiq has a post which caused thousands of people to raise their eyes heavenward in thanks. Uwe Boll will never direct a Metal Gear Solid film. From the article, which relays information from Kojima's ongoing podcast series: "Host Ryan Payton delivers a message from Kojima-san dispelling recent 'nasty rumors' that Uwe Boll is being considered to direct an upcoming Metal Gear Solid movie. Says Kojima: 'Absolutely not! I don't know why Uwe Boll is even talking about this kind of thing. We've never talked to him. It's impossible that we'd ever do a movie with him.'"

His movies are not fun and watchable. John Carpenter's movies (Big Trouble in Little China, The Thing, etc.) are fun and watchable, even if they are not masterpieces. But Uwe Boll? His movies are steaming piles of crap.
