200 People Walk Out of Free Postal Screening After Opening Scene

Uwe Boll

It took 10 minutes of Postal, the latest film from Uwe Boll to make 200 people walk out. The viewing was free. The reason? The first scene depicts terrorists high-jacking planes who decide to fore-go crashing into the World Trade Center and make for the Bahamas instead. The unaware passengers rush the cockpit and then the planes crash into the WTC thus making it the passengers fault for the death of thousands.

I actually felt sorry for Uwe Boll the other day when I read his interview. I felt maybe he was getting a raw deal. Now this. I have no problem with over the top humor but trivializing the death of thousands of innocent people for some shock factor in a movie? The man just committed career suicide. No theater in NYC will ever show his movies again. No actor in their right mind would go near this ethnocentrist. Its one thing to make shitty movies, that’s your prerogative. Make light of the death of several of my friends who passed away that day? Mr. Boll, people will be lining up to box you now. I would maybe challenge some of the guys down at the FDNY in Midtown Manhattan. I hear they are a little tougher than Michael Bay.

    Wow. I hope Uwe Boll crawls into a hole and never directs or has involvement with a movie again. Or video games. Or TV. Or the internet. Or boxing.

    Definition of failure:

    Boll,Uwe.

    I was perplexed when I read some guy's comment on a different forum saying one of his movies weren't as bad as other shitty movies - let's just say I didn't wanted to waste my time by replying.

    Only Uwe Boll can make people leave with disappointment when something is free. This guy is getting bashed on so much I don't know who the hell in the world would wanna stick up for him.
