Uwe Boll is a Problem

 How Uwe Boll still finds work in the Entertainment Industry is beyond me. He has crafted some of the worst films I've ever seen, and I love bad movies, and continues to have a voice and name in Hollywood. After watching Bloodrayne, Alone in The Dark, and my personal favorite of his films House of The Dead you will quickly understand why I have such a quarrel with Boll still being accepted in his chosen industry. Recently, he's taken another step in the asshole direction when he attacked Terrence Malick's latest film The Tree of Life along with Malick's career and Lars von Trier.


When asked about The Tree of Life in a recent interview with Screen Junkies, Boll stated that he hated the film and called it a piece of shit. He went on to say that Malick is one of the most overrated directors of all time along with Lars Von Trier, and said that after Breaking The Waves Lars von Trier's films are all crap. 

I suggest you head over to Screen Junkies and read the whole interview. Why Boll feels necessary to put down some of the industries most innovative and fresh filmmakers is beyond me. He is obviously jealous of their achievements, but attacking actual artists when he has produced some of the crappiest films of all time is a dick move.  Maybe Hollywood will wake up after this latest outburst and finally put Boll in his place.
