Much-maligned director Uwe Boll directs a surprisingly smart send-up of modern times in this taboo-smashing comedy that takes on everything from 9/11 to racial profiling with a subversive sense of humour. Not always smart enough to pull off the high-degree of intellectual difficulty, the movie is still an impressive spectacle thanks to some original ideas and its wicked sensibility.
New report from Skillsearch found that 22% of those surveyed had been laid off within the past 12 months.
It's a step forward for Stop Killing Games.
The Callisto Protocol director thinks the solution involves the right people, the right timing, and perhaps a little bit of AI
I don't agree with that. I WISH I could agree with that. But buying habits and customer opinions prove otherwise
We've seen developers in the AAA space try new things and ideas. More often than not, the customers aren't willing to give things a chance, or not enough people buy into the project for it to grow.
Creativity works better in the indie space because the budgets, pressures, and expectations aren't the same.
it's a nice idea and it worked during the PS2/PS3-era when AAA didn't cost hundreds of millions of dollars. smaller budgets and shorter development time left room for more creativity and more risk. a game didn't need to sell 4 million+ copies to break even. things are different now.
This is the guy who bragged about crunching his staff and having them work through the night. Crunch culture has lost more talent and done more damage to the industry than any other factor. Screw him.

An OK movie from Boll? Too bad it was cancelled by theatres.
this review is coming from canada.com. THose crazy canadians.
Boll said in 10 Apr on G4 Show that he believes that his upcoming adaptation of Postal (from the video game of the same name) could beat Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull at the box office, because Harrison Ford is older than his deceased grandfather.
Boll insulted Michael Bay and Eli Roth "fvcking retards". Bay responded to the "fvcking retards" comment by calling Boll "a sad being" and stated that he didn't care "in the slightest" to the remark. However, on April 27th 2008, Boll responded to Bay's comment of "not caring about Boll" as an insult and to prove who is the better director, Boll offered to challenge Bay to a boxing match at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. If Bay accepts, the match will last for 12 rounds and will take place in September. (Beat his arse Micheal!)
When rumors surfaced that Boll had expressed interest in a Metal Gear Solid movie, and claimed to have been given a script to read, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima responded in his audioblog HIDECHAN, "Absolutely not! I don't know why Uwe Boll is even talking about this kind of thing. We've never talked to him. It's impossible that we'd ever do a movie with him."
"If you’re not going to make a faithful adaptation, why make an adaptation at all?" Blizzard Entertainment refused Boll's request to make a World of Warcraft adaptation in a most critical manner... Boll says, "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,'"
(LOL at Blizzard comment!)
why was this approved?
