Over the past month or so there has been "fighting" between Uwe Boll(Idiot) and Michael Bay(Meglomaniac). As a massive movie fan I hate Michael Bay films but I hate Uwe Boll more... all of a sudden out of the blue Boll challenged Bay to a boxing match....Who will win?
Also there is a petition on the net to stop "Dr" Boll from making films, if you are interested google : petition stop Boll
Discuss....
BTW first vote goes to Uwe being the worst

I think I remember reading somewhere that Uwe Bollocks (as I like to call him) does regular boxing training as a way to keep fit. If Bay accepts, which I doubt, Boll will win. Boll knows this, and that's the only reason he challenged Bay.
Furthering his doucheness (is that a word?) is the fact that Boll only does movies of games. Gasp! Someone related to videogames is resorting to violence when he doesn't need to! The Horror with a capital H!
Scum.

Michael Bay may screw up his films, but he did make Transformers. So he is exempt. If you're comparing him to Uwe Boll who screws up every film his made, then it's a no brainer. Uwe Boll sucks as a director. Even worse is that he can't even take the critisim and keeps going losing more and more money. I feel sorry for the people on his shoots that didn't get paid because of him.

Same thing happened a few years back with a bunch of internet critics. He used to be a professional boxer, so he beat the everloving crap out of three pasty fat/skinny guys in the first round. You'd almost think he didnt know he was making turds that can be strung through a projector.

No one got paid!! Jesus I hope Michael somehow magically hands Bolls ass to him on a silver platter with cheese croutons on the side.... making shit movies is one thing but making people suffer for it....
Another thing I'd like to add is that Uwe Boll said that Postal(His film) is going to own this summers blockbuster race and decimate Indy 4 (MY ASS!)

no micheal bay screwed that up pretty good sorry to say

some of his other movies were ok tho, bad boys and bad boys 2 were ok but that's about it

the only "good" uwe boll film is house of the dead, it was SUPPOSED to be bad, so he's a great director for a good schlock movie

Transformers was great. It was entertaining and fun. Some of the characters weren't down to the exact deatail (scorpion thing?) but it still was a great film.

Boll made a movie glorifying school shootings (Seriously, heavy metal music plays when they start shooting.) and he stoll money from his own government.

He has the conscience of D. W. Griffith and the talent of Ed Wood

You may as well stop there. This just boils down to opinion, and on the internet, opinions are worth as much as, well, Uwe Boll's films.
Ultimately, Transformers was a good 'Braindead' movie. You could shut off for a while and just enjoy a bunch of robot smash the crap out of each other. If you want depth, a movie about giant alien robots that can transform into cars beating each other up isn't the place to look for it.

I was told Bloodrayne II was so bad that it was unwatchable. At least the first Bloodrayne was (at best)watchable, and contained the weirdest sex scene in a movie as far as I have seen. Of course, I don't watch pornography... therefore I'm likely way off.

As most curious people would feel the need to do, I watched it(BR2). If I had been told ahead of time that it was a western I would have laughed my ass off and avoided it like the plague. Wow, just wow. Who the hell tries to make Rayne into a cowgirl?! Guns practically eliminate the need for her swords... ok I doubt I even need to explain this here. My point is that Uwey should be lined up against a wall with Jack Thompson and brutally beaten, if not shot.

Is this another hate thread inspired by movies whom a few people thought were bad and people joined their group, forming a bandwagon, or am I too far from fitting into the social clique of polyposters? (poly=(Latin) many, poster= person who posts, not to sound condescending, just to coin a term)

Probably yes. I was merely stating my opinion of Uwe Boll through his movies... that likely places me on a bandwagon, but frankly, I don't care. I've had many conversations about Boll lately, and after people find out what movies he has directed they also think he's terrible.

Although this brings up another question. Boll is crazy, but who is crazy enough to keep paying him?

I doubt people went in to watch Le Red Viola when they saw Transformers.

Oh God, I voted for Michael Bay! rofs

I meant to vote for Uwe Boll. Something just doesn't sit well with me when I hear about movie directors punching the living daylights out of people.

Probably. Still a top movie. Strangely, another movie with Sam Jackson of all people.

I can stand some of Bays films but bolls are more like a survival test. Each one i've seen has driven me nearly to suicide ><

Anyway boll is a coward anyway. Last time he challenged everyone to a boxing match he made sure they sent in if they had any experience and the one guy who did boll ended up not challenging.

this is like judging between a dog turd and a cat turd. each have their own unique stink that makes them special. one is a patriotic nutjob who forgot what it means to show restraint in a film and the other is responsible for most video game flop movies. That said, I reckon bay could hit hard if he was pushed, he gets my vote

If I opened an Uwe Boll movie's DVD case and a bunch of flesh eating parasites crawled out and I had to fight for my life before they devoured me, I would have gotten more value then if I had actually sat down and watched one of his movies.

As for Micheal Bay I could say the same but he has actually made a movie that I like (The Rock), but he sure as hell hasn't redeemed himself.

Let's just accept that they're both talentless turds, and never see any of their films again.

And Purple, you liked Transformers? I thought it was dumb, even by summer blockbuster standards.

They both deserve some sort of medievel punishment for their films. Maybe a few days in the stocks, or a good ol' Iron Maiden treatment. Uwe Boll is like a hurricane; even though no one likes him, he still comes around every few years to torment us.

As for Micheal Bay, I demand justice! Isn't rape a crime?! Or is it excused if your rape a television franchise (and my youth)? I went opening night to watch The O.C Movie (featuring the Transformers) and was disgusted. You should have as few humans as possible, who usually just end up being captives of the Decepticons, not a lot of them who do everything! And it took nearly 2 hours to get to some good Autobot v. Decepticon rumbling. 2 bloody hours! And I swear, if I ever find the person who wrote "more than meets the eye" as a pick-up line, I will go Vlad the Impaler on him/her!

EDIT: Here are my feelings on the movie, in comic form.

That's true, but I did expect to... y'know.... see *Transformers* when I watched Transformers.

Here is a test to would be film producers. If, when you try to hire on a director for a movie that is based on one of the most beloved IPs of the 80's, his first words are, "That's a stupid toy movie," then you need to look into getting a different director.

Very true. I watched a behind-the-scenes feature on the movie, and it scared me. I can't remember if it was Micheal Bay or Steven Spieldberg, but one of them blasphemed hardcore. I should've known it was going to be bad when they said that Transformers was "about a boy buying his first car". No, no, NO! Bad director! BAD!

i agree, once i heard micheal bay say "i don't care about the 80s transformers story line or anything established before, i'm going to do something totally new", my heart sank. i didn't even mind them changing megatron into that new thing he is, i understand the gun is too hard to do and the guy who's voiced him had something happen to his voice. the funny part about the voice of optimus was michael bay didn't know that was the voice of the one from the cartoons in the 80s.

i'm also one of those freaks that LIKED the star wars prequels, i'm also one of the few star wars fans that actually saw the original trilogy on it's original theatrical run, it's actually one of my earliest childhood memories. won't say it's my oldest but it's pretty darn close

it's one thing to change parts of an ip to modernize it but giving it the middle finger and totally ignoring it is just wrong

Transformers was a pile of crap that singlehandedly destroyed on of the prized memories of my childhood. I must admit to never seeing a Uwe Boll film (though Postal might tempt be); but im not sad about that. I hope they beat eachother blind so they cant make movies nemore

That isn't even a comparison, Michael Bays movies actually make a profit.

Maybe it's because Transformers were after my time so I had no emotional attachment to them, but I thought Bay's "Transformers" was an enjoyable and funny if shallow movie. Comparing that to Boll - if I watched the Director's Cut of "Transformers" with my testicles caught in the platter and rotating for the entire two hours, it would still be more enjoyable than any Boll movie ever made.

And Boll's a trained boxer - he'll massacre Bay unless that worthy has some serious boxing or martial arts training.

Did anyone here see Pearl Harbour? I enjoyed that movie. I also enjoyed Transformers. I've not seen any of Boll's movies, but have heard terrible, terrible things. So I guess I can't make an informed opinion... but as for a completely uninformed one, Bay > Boll.

At least some of Bay's movies are fun to watch, even if they are a bit mindless and gratuitous. But then, there are plenty of other directors who are no better than these two. I think movies by Oliver Stone (the sole exception being the inexplicably good Twin Towers movie he did)are just as "bad" as Boll's for example. As a gamer, I'm a bit embarrased by Boll's game movies. They don't improve our favorite hobby's cred with the non-gaming public much.

Boll would win the fight, if it came to that. He also win's 'Worst Movie Maker' out of the two in my opinion. Bay's film's are fun and enjoyable to watch (To a limited extent, at least)...while Boll just churns out decliningly awful movies.
