Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
Got a question for Uwe Boll?
- Thread starter Patrick Klepek
- Start date
Serious questions:
-As a filmmaker in the horror/violence genres, are you familiar with Takashi Miike? If so, how would you compare yourself to him, and what do you think of his films?
-What's your biggest stylistic influence?
-Multipart: Your films are getting US theatrical releases, yet you're working on budgets far smaller than the average Hollywood feature. With the seemingly endless flow of talented actors signed on for your productions (probably taking major cuts out of that budget check), what are the sort of constraints that you wish you didn't have, if any, and what sort of film would we see out of you with a $200,000,000 budget instead of a $20,000,000 one?
-You're taking the reins for a number of videogame adaptations. Was this mostly a personal drive, or did your financial backers encourage you to focus on videogame-based plots after HotD turned a profit?
-Your movies aren't well-received by most critics. Do you have any comments to direct at the people judging your films harshly, possibly to help them better understand the sort of finished product you're aiming for?

Those are great questions, but given the tax laws in Germany, I'm sure he doesn't really care about critics, as he's getting $$$ and continued work from shitty films.

These are actually not bad questions. I would really like to know what he thinks fans think of his movies. Is he delusional or does just not care?jett said:
And the first question can be asked tactfully like asking why he thinks top actors want to be in a movie genre that was so reviled and considered carreer suicide in the past.

This is seriously THE question I was about to post, in about the exact same words.Stench said:
Now eXxy, this is really a good question, as it does not involve any diss in a proper form, and with this question, you get to see what he thinks of his own work.
Does he know that he sucks ? This question would make him answer.
Is he thinking his movies are getting better with time ? This question would make him answer.

ask him if he independently funds his own movies.. and if not, how the hell does he convince movie execs to fund his films. also, ask him how the fuck he keeps getting bigger stars on his films. is he connected with a mafia? does he blackmail these people? THE PUBLIC HAS A RIGHT TO KNOW>!
My Q:
"Video game fans cringe at the sound of your name behind any video game project and some even hope you never direct a movie again. There is a website with your name (http://www.uweboll.com/), most likely bought and created by a video game fan, that pleads you to stop making movies. Critics hate you, video game fans hate what you are doing to their games and your movies tank at the box office. What do you think of all this?"

6. Will there be a special "Bloodrayne Full Refund" program in order to prevent riots and other types of violent acts in theaters?
7. *SERIOUS QUESTION* What are your feelings on Paul W.S. Anderson, director of Resident Evil and Alien vs. Predator? Do you look up to him?
Would you care to give us an update on your progress, Uwe?Uwe Boll said:

I remember in a past interview he said something about how he would offer actors contracts at the latest possible moment (ie. Right before shooting), so that way he could "get them for cheaper". So I'm assuming they sign on because it's kind of like a quickie job to keep them busy while they wait for their other acting gigs to get started.Rorschach said:
