>Boll made headlines by challenging his critics to "put up or shut up". In June 2006, his production company issued a press release stating that Boll would challenge his five harshest critics each to a 10-round boxing match. Invitations were also open to film directors Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary. To qualify, critics had to have written two extremely negative reviews of Boll, in print or on the Web. In 2005, footage from the fights were to be included on the DVD of his upcoming film Postal.[35] On June 20, 2006, Rich "Lowtax" Kyanka stated on Something Awful that he had been invited by Boll to be the first contestant, after Kyanka reviewed Alone in the Dark.[36] The online gambling site GoldenPalace.com decided to sponsor this event, dubbing it "Raging Boll" (a play on the 1980 Martin Scorsese film Raging Bull). A lot was drawn up in late August 2006, featuring Kyanka, Rue Morgue magazine writer Chris Alexander, webmaster of Cinecutre Carlos Palencia Jimenez-Arguello, Ain't it Cool News writer Jeff Sneider, and Chance Minter, amateur boxer and website critic.[37][38] Boll fought and won against all five participants.
>Boll fought and won against all five participants.
I'm fairly sure though that Boll had some prior boxing experience, while his opponents were all fat nu-male neckbeards
Parker Flores
I don't get the point. Knocking out five nerds didn't make his movies any less shit. I will say, however, that his "GOH FAHK YAHSELF AND YAHR MOOFIES ABAUT RETARD VEEZARD EN ZA FAWREST" youtube meltdown was pretty funny, after it was revealed that his Kickstarter was a huge failure.
Man these faggots have never been in a fight in their lives, why not just keep your hands up at least?
Luis Garcia
>because it's an important movie
Sebastian Cooper
Didn't he stop challenging people after he was challenged by a professional boxer ?
Blake Campbell
The point its it's hilarious that a schlock Director physically fought and fucked up his critics.
Micheal Bay needs to do this. It's fucking hilarious. Can you ever critique a movie again if the Director actually beat your ass in public?
Logan Peterson
I'd box the corpse of Roger Ebert.
Ethan Johnson
The graveyard fight in House of The Dead is still one of the funniest action scenes ever filmed. youtube.com/watch?v=H9WqbZC3XeM
Colton Adams
Seanbaby
Henry Reyes
>make movies that suck >critics complain >challenge critics to fight >beat up critics >movies still suck
Lincoln Parker
He still beat up nu-male faggot critics. For that he has my respect.
Gavin Jenkins
Rampage was great. How is the sequel?
Colton Nguyen
Watching ol mangosteen man get his ass kicked was funny!
John Green
Yes because getting beat physically has nothing to do with film or critique?
Ayden Ward
It proves they're pussies.
Ryan Wood
Really bad. The entire movie takes place in one room, and it's just Bill Wilson shouting diatribes to a news camera. At least the first movie had, y'know, an actual rampage (and that hilarious part in the bingo hall). Rampage 2 was gimped by its budget, and it didn't really have anything new to say that wasn't run into the ground in the first movie.
Carter Powell
Half of those cucks confessed that they didn't even watch his movies. How the fuck are they writing reviews for his films then?
Jackson Cruz
Because all critics are faggots. Literally reviewing movies they've never seen. Film critique is dumb as shit. I'm glad he bashed their fucking skulls in,.
John Ortiz
>a play on the 1980 Martin Scorsese film Raging Bull
UHHHH DURRRRRRRRRR
Evan King
Still has nothing to do with film or film critique. He can knock out every film reviewer on Earth and it wouldn't make his mo it's watchable or the criticism any less true
Ethan Williams
Some of them didn't even watch the movies, dude
Blake Thomas
That's disappointing. The poster makes it look like big things happen.
Levi Peterson
His movies are still shit but I absolutely have respect for the man now.
Dylan Gutierrez
That poster is 100% more interesting than anything that happens in the movie.
Thomas Ward
>Critics contribute nothing to film
If only Boll had contributed nothing, he would be as good as his critics.
Also, I remember when this happened, several online critics with actual boxing experience stepped forward and Boll refused to fight them, and instead chose only people with no boxing experience.
Anthony King
Uwe Boll vs Zack Snyder, who wins?
The Ultimate Battle: Schlock vs Schlockier
Ethan Butler
Source? I don't doubt it, but as it is now it's framed as Boll taking all comers and nobody but losers stepping up
Carson Bell
Snyder's a real director and a humble guy so it would be nice seeing him win. He doesn't box I imagine him losing to Boll.
Ryan Hernandez
Snyder wins easily. The guy is fucking huge and does reps on set. Boll is an old man. Snyder would see him coming in Slo-Mo and grimace while he lands a Haymaker, spilling Uwe's blood on his wife's son.
Austin Flores
>can't make a movie worth a shit >have to prove critics wrong by beating them in boxing >can't even fight actual critics with boxing experience
This guy is a fucking farce.
Evan Perry
Maybe in the future you shouldn't slander movies you haven't seen. It makes you the jackass and Uwe Boll the hero when you write fake reviews like an egghead. You're a candy ass.
Xavier Gray
>make shitty movies his entire life >make one movie that panders to a very particular crowd with very particular issues >suddenly said crowd of damaged autists feels the need to white-knight uwe fucking boll
Samuel Bailey
now if only he were as good a director as he is a boxer.
Dominic Gray
Wait, what? I remember Seanbaby from EGM, I'm an oldfag. He was gonna fight Uwe Boll?
Cameron Cook
idk, I enjoyed it, and the sequel too, although he bitches out at the end kinda.
They were never great movies, just highly entertaining
Jordan Ortiz
Only pretentious people can claim they've never enjoyed a Uwe Boll movie. He doesn't make kino, but he makes a good flick.
Nicholas Sullivan
>lowtax
hope u got 10bux, lol
Liam Miller
>phone poster
And yes, it would. If Boll beat the shit out of every movie reviewer on earth it would definitely make his mo it's watchable. Imagine the director commentary
Dominic Scott
Is Uwe Boll basically just a scam artist making "films" entirely from German tax funds and keeping whatever profits there are?
Luke Gray
This happened, except for a few things: Uwe said it was just for show and said he wanted a fair fight, so he'd give them training beforehand Double bonus: he also refused to fight people with actual boxing experience "Based" doesn't really describe a guy who lies about how the fight's gonna go and then pussies right the fuck out as soon as he has an actual chance to lose He also called Michael Bay retarded and then fucking backpedaled, said he didn't mean it, and then tried to challenge him to a boxing match
Hunter Sullivan
>commentary >paying for an Uwe Boll movie >commentary is just him screaming about rampage 3 and not getting the warcraft license for an hour and a half
Henry Rogers
How did I not know about this? Based shitty movie man is my hero now.
Tyler Bennett
Yeah, who gives a fuck? Boll, a trained boxer won boxing matches a bunch of untrained critics. Ooo, wow. What point did this prove? It didn't change the fact that Boll's movies are shit, and he's a shit director.
Michael Perez
Seanbaby offered to. Then Uwe Boll found out that Seanbaby is actually professionally trained in muay thai (and is 6'3") and dropped the open challenge.
While it was funny, his movies still suck. And I don't think it even worked as a publicity stunt it obviously was meant as.
Cooper Kelly
>I e-mailed this information, along with the reassurance that the Holocaust survivors got together and agreed he was the worst thing to come out of Germany. I figured this would make him mad enough to ignore that I'm several weight classes above him in F-List Celebrity Boxing. It didn't. After reading my stats, he suddenly couldn't make it on the show.
Gabriel White
>Uwe Boll beat Lowtax so hard that he got a troon bf, and put more troons and actual pedophiles on the moderation teams
Wyatt James
Wow what a pussy
Luis Howard
Fuck off faggot. It's nobody's fault but their own they weren't prepared to get their asses beat. They accepted the challenge. They should have trained.
Micheal Bay IS retarded.
Connor Edwards
The John Numbers of film?
Josiah Bell
Imagine if Tarantino took him on and showed off his footfagfu?
>Pinky Toe Punch! > Smelly Spinkick! > Size 13 Stomp! > What's going on here? > Full Foot Fist! > Sucking Toe Sucker Punch!
It'd be epic.
David Parker
Uwe, just stop.
Isaac Cruz
Fuck off Bay, go suck some machine CGI cock and jerk to your box office numbers.
Mason Jones
Holy shit. I thought this was fake but it's real. How the fuck did this crazy shit happen? I want to see other film Directors doing this type of shit now.
Based Boll
Adam Allen
How do you pronounce uwe?
Nicholas Hughes
At least I have a paying job
Adrian Harris
>Bashed Lowtax
He deserves immortality for this alone. Only way it could have been better is if he bashed moot too.
There's still time Uwe!
Also I always thought he bashed Devin "It's Not Rape When Male Feminists Do It" Faraci. Turns out that was a different film director.
Hudson Moore
Ooo-vuh. That's how he pronounces it anyway.
Brayden Harris
Before I was banned, I was a regular at AICN.
Sneider whined like a bitch. He was "duped". He said Uwe never let on that he was a trained boxer and that they went in expecting a lark - while Boll worked out and prepped hard. Said Boll went in WAY harder than he even needed to and obliterated them.
Benjamin Martinez
I thought it was Ooo-way
Nathan Cooper
I think it's amazing that Devin fell off the face of the earth. Does he still run the background stuff of that site or did he sell it?
Imagine opening your mouth too much that a woman decides to call you out on being a fucking creep. Throwing stones in goddamn glass houses.
Matthew Diaz
desu he probably just made the name up and pronounces it differently every time
Alamo Drafthouse had him working behind the scenes doing menial clerical work (because Tim League was pals with Devin back when they were both nobodies), and tried bringing him back into the fold publicly about a week or two ago, but the backlash was so severe that League had to cut him loose.
Normally I'd say that a guy's career/life shouldn't be ruined because of internet hearsay, but Faraci was such a smug, self-satisfied and grandiose piece of shit that in this case, it's ok.
Luis Mitchell
Self admitted alcoholic and rapist Devin Faraci had a fight at Fantastic Fest with Joe "Mumblecore" Swanberg.
Ironically, Faraci has pretty much killed Fantastic Fest after it was revealed last week his boss had not fired him over his rapes, but had helped him cover it up and get him employed under the table.
Matthew Gomez
Oh nigga, you didn't hear?
He's back in the news!
He's taking down the Alamo Drafthouse with him!
He immediately set up a secret facebook group, with followers like Adam McKay, Jen Yamatomato and some female critic who runs awards daily ("it's not rape when Devin does it!").
He kept writing reviews, and people noticed he appeared to still have some kind of job and access to screenings - turns out he wasn't fired - Alamo Drafthouse just removed his name from bylines and gave him another job. Turns out another one of his victims complained and the owner of Alamo asked her to keep it quiet because it would hurt business. Shit came out last week and a bunch of people quit, got mad, etc. So now he's fired for good (and whined about "muh health care" and having to be homeless - cause god forbid a fat film blogger drive a cab or push a broom) and films are pulling out of Fantastic Fest.
Carter Hughes
Bol owned all those faggots name one Tarantino movie that's better than Rampage a near perfect 10 imo
Christopher Gray
Who is this guy really? Sounds hilarious.
Samuel Brown
Big film reviewer. Works(ed lel) for Alamo Drafthouse, Mondo, etc etc. Big geek companies.
Part of that whole Patton Oswalt twitter circle. Spent all his time ranting and raving about GamerGate (despite having nothing to do with Games) and went crazy when AVGN said he didn't want to watch Ghostbusters. Was notorious for being a psychotic asshole on twitter and was even hated by a bunch of leftists who (correctly) assumed he was too much of a scumbag to be sincere about his feminist ravings, and was virtue signalling.
Is ranting about Trump on twitter, being a pussy grabber, and then pic related happened. Things got worse from there.
>How can one man be so BASED? You've never watched one of his movies. Also the faggot refused to fight anyone with any training or boxing background. It was neat seeing him knock out lowtax, though.
Xavier Martin

Jaxon Campbell
Contrarian moron.
Tyler Edwards
>Micheal Bay needs to do this. Dude gets stage fright after 30 years in the business just because they asked him what his job's about. And he's pretty skinny too, he'd get his ass handed to him.
Christian Phillips
Have you even heard Lowtax talk about it? Dude really doesn't give a fuck about it, if anything Boll came out looking like a pathetic tryhard.
Xavier Hall
>Double bonus: he also refused to fight people with actual boxing experience
Let's be fair here, how likely is it there are any legitimate movie critics with actual boxing experience? Obviously lots of amateur boxers would pretend to be critics and challenge him.
Jace Evans
GJILME?

at least 2 of those numale faggot critics are shitposting ITT
