Loading Ready Run dedicated another video to the Uwe Boll. (youtube.com)
In a recent podcast, Philip DeFranco, currently the 11th most subscribed YouTuber, mentions Uwe Boll and the petition dedicated to keep him from making any more films. (youtube.com)
The makers of Stride gum announced today via Yahoo that they are launching a special campaign supporting the efforts of StopUweBoll.org in their attempt to convince famed film director Uwe Boll to stop making video game-based films.
Uwe Boll has said that he will stop making movies if the petition achieves 1 million signatures; as of this writing, the total was a bit more than 240,000.
“Since gamers are one of our most supportive groups, we’ve been looking for ways to return the favor,” Gary Osifchin, Stride North American marketing director, said in a statement. “And what better way is there to get gamers’ backs than by helping them rescue their cherished video games from the clutches of Uwe Boll?”
Stride will provide a downloadable coupon (good for one pack of gum) to each petition signer that will be downloadable on May 23, 2008, if the target of one million signatures is reached between May 7 and 14, 2008. Additional details will be forthcoming.
Uwe Boll talks about the Postal boycott, his Michael Bay feud and the problems with Hollywood in an exclusive interview with Skewed & Reviewed. (sknr.net)
Here’s a message from Vince Desi, the developer of the game Postal:

At the 2007 Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal, Stuart “Feedback” Andrews sat down with the Teutonic Terror himself for about an hour (just before the Canadian Premiere of In The Name of the King) and recorded one of the most extensive, in-depth interviews ever conducted with the notorious German filmmaker.

And be sure to tune into Cinephobia over the next couple of weeks because they’ll be giving away DVD copies of Dr. Boll’s latest film, the 70 million dollar sword and sorcery epic In The Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale.

Petition Online, a service through which internet users can start a virtually endless amount of petitions with less than a hundred votes each that ultimately won’t accomplish anything because the cause was too trivial, wildly misguided or plain preposterous to begin with. There are currently an estimate of 50 Boll-related petitions hosted at Petition Online. (petitiononline.com)
If you absolutely have cast your vote in a petition, use one of the two most active ones:
Stop Dr. Uwe Boll Petition (230.000 signatures and counting)
Long Live Uwe Boll Petition (4900 signatures and counting)
BollBashers.com supporter Radim informs us that, according to Uwe Boll, House of the Dead - Funny Version will be released through Splendid Entertainment in Autumn 2008. In the US, the DVD will be released through Lionsgate.
