He is. Sure he's immature about it but that dosen't make it less true. I can't quit my dayjob and do whatever the fuck I want til retirement and im guessing neither can you, if he can and he got to that position not through inheritence but through work then he is ahead of us wheter you like it or not.


while that is true, he brought it in to save face which makes him look pathetic

it's like losing the 100 meter sprint then whining like a little bitch telling everyone how good he is at chess


and the ability to make money while important in our society, does not in my opinion contribute to who he is as a human being

and from what i can see, he has no redeeming qualities

if ur going to be an asshole, at least be good at wat u do

his movies suck and his personality is worse

His movies might be shit (for the mostpart) but he's ten times more interesting as a director than Michael Bay or Zack Snyder or Joss Whedon which is what I was saying in my original post. His movies might be shit but atleast he has a vision which makes him ten times more interesting than the previously mentioned directors who's allowed to make movies on virtually unlimited budgets.

...lolwut? :rofl:

Come on, homeslice. His "vision" means f?!k-all, if he can't adequately translate that to film.

He's a terrible director. Various Netflix Original programming has better direction than what Boll is able to produce.

I don't have an opinion on Boll as a person (...at least, I didn't, prior to his temper tantrum video,) but he's a TERRIBLE, terrible director. How he's managed to make as many films as he has is just short of amazing to me.

Rampage has a cult following, of course with that film he's trying to reach angry nihilistic edgelords which is a pretty nieche market but the demograph for that film enjoyed it.

Either way my point being, if his product is shit or not dosen't matter, what matter is he stays true to producing shit because he honestly believes what he makes is good. To me an artist sticking with his gut and not making compromises is worth more than what say Znyder does which is pandering to the lowest common denominator in order to make as much money as possible, that's what we should be bashing.

And to be completely honest with you: if I had to sit through either Rampage 2 or Sucker Punch again i'd chose Rampage 2 every time.

He says he's got enough money to retired playing golf. He should use that money if the believes in it so much, which he should
Stopped watching Bolls years ago, they all weren't totally awful. Just not time worthy

yeah I thought about this aswell, if he's as loaded as he says he should fund his own films. Can't argue against that.

Fair enough. Fair enough.

HAH. :D

I'd knuckle up with him. I think I could take him. ;)

But yeah; I still think he acted like a petulant child in that Kickstarter video. "Whiny" isn't a good color on anyone.
