Who's worse: Boll or Anderson?

[missvalentine]

i think Boll is way worse than Anderson ever will be, im not sure if ive ever seen one of bolls films, but i don't ever want to.

i actually don't think Anderson is to bad, ive enjoyed all his films in stupid action movie kind of way, maybe cause i don't really care about film to much, i like games way more.

i thought he did a great job on Event Horizon, and i liked AVP a lot to, and yes i even enjoyed the RE movies, all three of them, there non canon so they don't bother me one bit, except that NEMESIS VS Alice fight that's just stupid.

i actualy enjoyed the movies more than RE4 for some reason, maybe cause RE4 is cannon which pisses me off, but id still rather the first RE movie to be cannon instead of RE4, but that's just me.

Anderson is better. Event horizon is his best work and I really enjoyed Mortal Kombat, the second one was a total disgrace thank god Anderson had nothing to do with it even Johnny Cage was killed off. And his last movie Death race was quite fun.

I think that's the important thing...while Anderson's Resident Evil movies are essentially fanfiction based around his wife being forced into the plot and forcing out all other characters, plot elements not related to her and common sense he can, when not filming the mother of his child, make a decent film.

Boll, on the other hand...I've seen BloodRayne and Alone in the Dark and a couple of others. They were all crap, without exception or remorse. The only way the man gets funding is because of German tax cuts for movie investors. Basically they get half the cash back from the goverment before they even start filming, as far as I can tell. And that's the only reason he keeps filiming, because otherwise his films wouldn't make nearly as big a profit, if they made one at all.

Plus, Boll and his boxing crap just makes him look like a complete cock.

[P Anderson DIE]

Dont see what the fuss is with Event Horizon heared it was scary? More like an action film and not a very good one at that, Sam Neil is a good actor prob the best thing about the film.

[Darkmoon]

It's a decent sci-fi horror. I'd definitely say it's not action. It's not the greatest horror ever, true, but compare it to anything Uwe Boll has done, ever.

[missvalentine]

Event Horizon is a pretty good Horror Film, i recomend renting it if you can, it's got some pretty gory scenes in it to, and it's scary is some parts, it proves that Anderson can actually be a good director when he wants to as well.

[Henry Spencer]

I found it quite disturbing in parts (like the bath part where Sam is going absolutely nuts) and well written. The way it was shot was very good as well.

Hell in space is a good concept. Death Race was fun to watch, but it's braindead. That's the next film out of Anderson's back catalogue that is closest to being any good.

Boll just could not direct his way out of Guantanamo Bay.

[Daargoth]

I think Anderson can actually direct better than he can write. Artistic level of MK and the RE movie were pretty cool camera angles and rooms, the laser room for example.

Boll...ugh....house of the dead, great arcade games and all.....he just ruined it and I thought typing of the dead was the low point of the franchise....

[Canas Renvall]

Typing of the Dead is a fun game.

And definitely Boll. I agree with missvalentine, the RE movies are non-canon, so it doesn't bother me one bit. Whereas RE4 is canon, and it bothers me a lot. Gimme the RE movies as canon over RE4 anyday. Plus, yes, Mortal Kombat is great (second one... no comment. XD), I loved Death Race... and I still have yet to see Event Horizon.

Boll: Alone in the Dark. Even Christian Slater couldn't save that movie. D:
BloodRayne. Even Kristanna Loken couldn't save that movie. Neither could Meatloaf. Neither could Michelle Rodriguez.
Postal. ...Okay, seriously, who makes a movie about Bin Laden being butt-buddies with George W. Bush? Really?

[P Anderson DIE]

Ah man didnt realise that Uwe Boll was responsible for House Of The Dead lol look at his track record of films how is he still directing? One of lifes great mystery's I guess. I guess Anderson may not be the worst director ever. The king of trash has been demoted.

[adamb1029]

Mmm...i have to say uwe boll
seriously how come he hasint been killed by fans yet?

Since this topic got brought back to life;

I think it's very important that everyone sees POSTAL before they voice their opinion on Uwe Boll. (Watching interviews with him is also rather interesting.)

'cause even though it (Postal) is no Top Secret, Hot Shots 1 or Hot Shots 2, it's still the closest we've been to having a similar type of parody/comedy movie in this day and age (just with a tad bit of explicit content).


Postal was and is awesome.
(What is the difference between a duck?)

[Skunky]

Well, I havn't seen POSTAL but I'm voicing my opinion anyway.

Uwe Boll needs to be killed right now! He is the worst. Nobody else comes close to being as bad. He has to DIE!!!

I love the BloodRayne games and was really excited when I read they were making a movie (I didn't know who Uwe Boll was at that stage). That film was so shit it was jaw dropping. How could he get it so terribly wrong?! There wasn't a single good thing about it. Not one good scene! The style and subject matter from the game was there for the taking but Boll chose to completely ignore it all (worse, he took a big shit on it all). I can't imagine it being done any worse by anybody. It made me sick!
I rented the sequel. Why? Because I still love BloodRayne and thought maybe it will have at least a cool scene. It was probably slightly better but it had absolutely NOTHING to do with BloodRayne. Just bizarre...
My fear is that he's singlehandedly killed the franchise. Who would want to make or invest in another game, now that it will forever be attached to those movies?
But Boll's not deterred. A 3rd BloodRayne film is being made!!!

Anderson is better... Event Horizon was pretty good for a 'Hell Raiser in space' kinda rip-off. I thought Extinction was quite well directed but he didn't direct that. He was responsible for the shitty story and script.

Yeah I heard about Postal. Even though I haven't seen it, it does look like a good funny movie, but it doesn't look like it takes much to direct a movie like Postal, not that I would know anything about directing.

[Helegad]

POSTAL WAS FUCKIN' FUNNY!

It proves that Boll CAN make a decent film if he tries to. The House Of The Dead "Funny Edition" was not funny at all. There were so many fart jokes. I thought Boll was older than that. Yes, I did watch it.
