For the mad WoW gamers out there.

Uwe Boll contacted Blizzard about making a World Of Warcraft movie.

Their response?
“I got in contact with Paul Sams of Blizzard, and he said, ‘We will not sell the movie rights, not to you…especially not to you,’”

Thank. Fucking. God.

Amen!

That's a shame. Uwe Boll makes shit movies, but they are at least so bad it's funny.

BloodRayne is the only movie I really deeply wish had been porn. The only way acting that bad is worthwhile is if there is some sex going on in between scenes. So I guess what I'm saying here is that Uwe Boll should be making porn, if he's allowed to make anything at all.

If I remember correctly, the actress he hired to star in it was chosen specifically because she'd do topless shots.

...and then he tried to convince Ubisoft that they needed to change the character's face in their games to match the actress he chose.

i'm sure a lot of other actresses wuld have done a topless shot, but she was probably the biggest name that would.

She should have done more topless, though. like the whole movie plus credits. then it might have been worth watching.

This movie made me want to gouge out my eyes. Fortunately we brought, er, beverages with us to the theatre.

Well, someone in the gaming industry has been paying attention.

This is a welcome change, n'est ce pas?

And I really wanted to see The Rock play a Tauren.

Oh god. I don't know if that fills me with glee or shame. Or both.

[elffin.livejournal.com]

It fills me with both. He played one of the marines in "Doom", which was so bad it ought to have been Uwe Boll.

[gothpanda.livejournal.com]

Doom was awful, yes, but I still love The Rock. He was great in "The Rundown."

And hilarious in Be Cool.

Or Michael Clarke Duncan.

What. The fuck. Why would he even want to, given his current repertoire?

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

It's a popular video game, he makes movies based on popular video games.

[autobotsrollout.livejournal.com]

That's right! The World of Warcraft movie can only be made by one of the video game movie auteurs like Paul Anderson or Andrzej Bartkowiak!

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

The possibility that, one day, their favourite video game will have a movie as competently executed as Mortal Kombat is something that makes many World Of Warcraft players happy.

The involvement of Uwe Boll would guarantee, at best, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation levels of quality, and that makes them sad.
