Shocker: Uwe Boll's Postal movie is good photo

Hell has apparently frozen over. Pigs can fly, Clownshoes can write, and Ron Workman has joined the magical realm of Azeroth. Ladies and gentlemen, the rumor brimming all over the interweb is that crapzilla video game film maker Uwe Boll has produced a good film based on Postal, the ultra-violent shooter that takes in all the violence in GTA and coats it with cat feces.  Here's the note:

Rather than continuing to fight his public and online image Boll has decided to embrace it, intentionally elevating the level of absurdity and shlock here to never before seen levels, all in the name of creating one of the most coarse, vulgar and offensive comedies ever put to celluloid.

This seems hard to believe -- especially after the awkward trailer and snipperts we posted a few weeks ago. Nevertheless, the review comes from a trusted indie review source Twitch so I'm inclined to believe it holds some weight. Nevertheless, Destructoid has alterted the FBI and that journalist's financial records are being combed for recent deposits of Deutschmarks and Bloodrayne's panties.

I read this, and literally gagged on my sandwich. If this proves to be true, i might have just lost 50 dollars. Crap

Dear Destructoid,

Well, this is the note. I've decided to end it all. I won't live in a world plagued by such madness, for that's what this is. This is madness.

Sincerely, Necros

So someone actually likes the Postal film? Quite interesting...

I have a funny feeling that Uwe Boll has found a formula that actually works and is going to keep doing making films now that he found something that works. My advice: Don't watch the piece of shit!

"...creating one of the most coarse, vulgar and offensive comedies ever put to celluloid."

That in no way sounds like a GOOD review. After all, we're talking about Postal, so even if the movie was good (it isn't) it would still suck.

Uwe Boll has launched an unprovoked personal attack on video gamers the likes of which we haven't seen since 9/11 or Pearl Harbor. If this man was hit by a car in front of me, I would stand there and dance in his arterial spray.

Fuck Uwe Boll.

I bet this movie will be good. The director may suck, but Zack Ward ("Titus") is awesome. Looks funny.

@ Mr. Haley.

True that, man.
Whenever somebody goes ahead and claims that a movie is one of the "most __________ ever", it's usually bullshit.

In this case, it's hard to believe that any movie this day and age can top such schlock-fests as Brain Dead, Evil Dead, Re-Animator, Cannibal Holocaust, Airplane, Pink Flamingos and Bachelor Party, especially one that's directed by the pathetic Uwe Boll.

So yeah... I don't know if anyone watched the clip that the article's author linked, but I have to admit that I laughed at it. I probably won't see it in theaters, and I might not rent it on DVD, but when it hits my on-demand cable in a few years, i'll probably watch it then.

So a crap filmmaker finally realizes he's crap and is now making his movie intentionally crappier? Embracing his incompetence still won't save his film from being another complete waste of celluloid.

I say it's all lies. I refuse to believe that he is capable of making anything that can be considered "good"... To do otherwise... It's just not in my capability.

Yea Mr. Haley...I know where you are coming from...

Even if it is a "good movie", Boll is still a criminal stealing investor's money left right and center.

Well my main criticism of the postal 2 game can't really apply to the movie: it loaded really, really slow.

Well, as long as he keeps making shitty movies that I'll never watch about shitty games that I'll never play, and doesn't come within a hundred yards of an actual good IP, like MGS or something, he can do whatever he wants. Good thing that there are at least some people out there who care enough about their IP to keep Uwe the fuck away from it.
