Required watching above.

This was around 2006ish, I remember watching it fondly. Hoping that the creator of https://www.somethingawful.com would kick the poo poo out of some dipshit no name director. Sadly I was disappointing.

So I made this thread to ask Lowtax What he was thinking and what went in to him agreeing to this poo poo bucket of a fight.

hey Lowtax! What up, Yo? Why didn't you train? Did you think Uwe was a joke?

Anyway, ask Lowtax about his fight in this thread, Yo.

From what I understand Uwe was a lyin' twat who said he'd A) Train them and B) Take it easy on them.

haven't seen it but I kinda liked what he had to say about it

"But to be honest, what is Germany doing? If you make a Sophie Scholl movie or an Anne Frank movie, you get subsidies, you get into the Berlin Film Festival because everybody's happy that you're showing that there were Germans in the resistance. But that is bullshit! The reality is that everybody went with it. Only 40 percent voted for Hitler, but then 90 percent went with it and didn't question why Jews were getting deported. And after the war they said they thought the Jews were in working camps or being sent to the front line. Everybody had an excuse. And if you make a movie now you only get support if you show Germany in a positive light. "

Long story short: he said it was a PR event & that he'd give us boxing lessons and equipment. Fortunately I brought my own equipment because they didn't even give us cups. Also there was no boxing lesson. Also turns out he'd been boxing for 16 years. So I got punched a lot in the head until I decided I didn't want to be punched in the head anymore and did the Ric Flair Flop. THE END.

They couldn't find three critics that would fight him, so I emailed them and said that I've never reviewed any of his films, but if I do would I get a free trip to Vancouver and they said yes because they had nobody else. So I wrote a review of one of his films so I'd get a free plane ticket / hotel in Vancouver.

Yeah, it wasn't bad. I mean, getting punched in the head by a German movie director who has 16 years of boxing experience kinda sucks, it feels like there are angry bees in your brain trying to escape, but hey the flight and hotel were free.

Seriously? You sold out for an rear end kicking and a trip to Canada? Was there free booze involved? Please tell me there was free booze involved.

I wasn't sure about you at first, but I can't help but like a guy who volunteers to get punched in the head for weird entertainment purposes.

It's really pathetic that he just wanted to punch someone and basically settled for you because you wanted a free trip.

He strikes me as the type of person who would physically abuse someone because he's just really angry and he wants to hit someone who can't fight back.
