Boll Stands Up

There's a petition going around on the internet, saying that Uwe Boll should stop making movies.

Here is Boll's response. It is probably the funniest thing I've seen all year. Very refreshing.

Personally, I don't think I've seen more than five minutes of the guy's stuff. But anybody who tells critics where to stick it is okay in my book.

The man does have a point: With all the social commentary going on in movies, there must still be a place for hacks that just want to blow things up for the sheer hell of it, while filming the heroine running to and fro in a skimpy T-shirt. Sure, I'd probably get on my high horse and give it a bad review, but if somebody digs it, what do I care?
