Boll Will Stop For A Million Signatures
Scourge of fans of both quality cinema and protecting the unspoiled reputation of gaming’s great franchises, Uwe Boll has also been known to come out swinging at critics of his work with such vastly intelligent retorts as calling the reviewer “stupid”. For years, many in the gaming community have been praying that no more of his hijinxs get funded by major movie studios and it looks like we may just get our way, thanks to Boll himself.
In a typically Bollian reaction to an online petition at FearNet, Uwe the Wonderful brushed aside the pleas of 18,000 people, all requesting that he stop making movies, by saying that the tally wasn’t enough. But there’s hope! As part of an interview with FearNet, Boll stated exactly how many signatures it would take for him to stop tormenting us and non-gaming movie-goers alike:
FearNet: Are you aware that there is a petition online, signed by 18,000 people, requesting that you stop making movies?
UB: Yeah, I know that. 18,000 is not enough to convince me.
Fearnet: How many would it take?
UB: One million. Now we have a new goal.
A million? Is that all? And here I thought this would be difficult. Since April 7th (yesterday), the petition tally has quadrupled to 121062 signatures.

Hahahaha. *Goes off to sign*
You expect Boll to comply when the signatures hit 1M? Not gonna happen.
What’s the current count?
Of course he isn’t, but it’s still amusing to measure the loathing that both gaming and film fans have for his work.
Current count: 172337
I think we should spread the word on this one. I’ll put it in my blog.
