Boll Approached for Metal Gear Solid n' More...

*Mecha Cow* · 01-06-2006, 02:46 PM

I've never actually had the pleasure of seeing this guy's work, but from what I understand his Alone in the Dark is one of the worst movies of all time, and Bloodrayne has already gotten some terrible reviews after being out for like a day.

MGS is one of the few video games that I could actually see become a good movie, so I hope mr. Boll doesn't get his hands on it.

Hes also doing Farcry and a Dungeonsiege flicks......

My friend hates Boll. He thinks he's the worst director on the planet. Their already making a Devil May Cry movie*Thank god this asshat isn't director* So they can try and ruin my favorite video games all they want. I just won't watch the movie. Or I'll rent it and make fun of how inaccurate it is.

Speaking of the Doom movie...what made them think a 15 minute segment where it's in first person was a good idea? YAY! It's like the game! So what in the Metal Gear movie their gona have a 15 minute segment where Snake is in a box or a locker waiting for the guards to go away?

The MGS story is bad enough as it is. Letting this guy touch it will make it even worse, but whatever. At least he isn't involved in Halo.

It's not surprising that they approached him, since he's willing to do anything.

What surprises me is how on earth a sane creature lets a guy like him make movies.

Another video game to movie adaptation? yay?

I'm just curious... I'm not that familiar with various directors, but how does Uwe Boll suck?

I'm not contesting the popular opinion... i'm just curious what is it that he does wrong? I have never seen the House of the Dead movie... hell... I didn't even know there was a movie based on that game!

The segment in Doom thats first person is one of the only redeeming factors of that movie...
