“The market is dead,”

Who is Lowtax going to box now?

“We have to loving kill the rich,” and simultaneously bragging he has “enough money to play golf ’til I’m dead.”

Uwe Boll believes that his movies 'said a point about things' and that they 'deserved to be discussed bigger then they were'. lol. Is English this guys third language or is he really bad at speaking?

Regardless of his poor english, he is right, Uwe Boll's movies do say a point about things. The point they say is that Uwe Boll is a bad filmmaker

edit: was a bad filmmaker, sorry

Not like he did any boxing in the match with Boll anyway. He just cowered a bunch and got his rear end kicked until he ran away like a scared child

Yes but lowtax's internet cred (his "e-cred") score is still holding strong, whereas boll has none.

Costco still accepts e-cred in exchange for hotdogs right ? ?

I thought he already quit movies, because germany finally got rid of the tax incentives that basically paid for all his lovely films?

The first Rampage was one of Uwe Boll's only watchable movies.

I saw part of the second one and holy poo poo. As well as the other movies he started making. Somewhere along the line he went from troll being offensive for kicks to "I wear tinfoil hats and think some mass murder would be a good thing" psycho from what I can tell. Perhaps I'm being unfair but I think he made a few movies like that recently.

i wouldn't be retarded enough to sign up to box someone who trains in boxing without actually training at all, and even if I was I wouldn't be a cocky rear end hole about it going in like Lowtax was. Dude got humbled and deserved it

I'm sad that somebody who puts out such aggressively mediocre content and then gets pissy when he's called out on it by _literally_everybody_ is retiring.

At least we still have Chuck Lorre.

Not just satisfied with the forum, Lowtax goes to twitter to claim Notch owes him money for minecraft.

Both Uwe Boll and Lowtax are unverified on twitter so I'd say they are equals.

Problem with this is anybody who defends Lowtax for getting knocked the gently caress out will be accused of white knighting some white guy from Kansas which is literally impossible.

Uwe Boll was the greatest troll of his own career. No loving original thought and took his dumb rear end super serious. At least Lowtax (AND LITERALLY EVERYBODY ELSE WHO ATTENDED AND PARTICIPATED) treated his dumb rear end boxing poo poo with the contempt it deserved. Some massage exercise for his stupid butthurt "nobody likes my lovely films that aren't original and are lovely compared to the original material I've based them on."

e: Uwe Boll is basically Star Wars Kid. The worst you can say about Lowtax et al is they enabled his autistic retard poo poo.

The thing is, Uwe Boll won't retire, he will announce in 6 months that he had decided to come back to same film or some such poo poo.

trust me, I'm a cat.

The one thing that sums best Boll's finesse is that during Alone in the Dark's love scene he picked Youssou N'Dor's "Seven seconds" as a soundtrack. A song about innocence of newborn baby.

Also he made a parody of his own Bloodrayne movies, where Rayne is overweight.
