Uwe Boll To Quit Making Movies With 1M Signatures

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the just-means-he-is-switching-media dept.

An anonymous reader writes to mention that Uwe Boll, the infamous German director behind such video game adaptations as House of the Dead, BloodRayne, Dungeon Siege and Postal, has recently admitted that he would retire from making movies if enough people want him to stop. When FearNet mentioned to Boll a petition online signed by 18,000 people requesting that he cease making films, Boll responded that '18,000 is not enough to convince me.' So how much would be enough? 'One million,' Boll said."

    So this Uwe Boll guy is German?

    Hmmmm. Yes. His movies would probably be a lot better with Nazi logos and goose-stepping soldiers. Maybe he could do a 1984 remake. (Or Medal or Honor, the Swastiki Strikes Back.)
