Uwe Boll is making a case for Postal by pitting it against the toughest of opponents in Indy 4! We get this outstanding news and following preposterous quote thanks to our friends at slashfilm:
“On the Indiana Jones weekend – May 23 – we will go out and destroy Indiana Jones in the Box Office! We all know that Harrison Ford is older as my grandpa and his time is up – would Michael Moore say!”
“Spielberg gets sloppy. We saw that with War of the Worlds (why the fuck the older brother survived?) and also in parts of Jaws, E.T., Munich etc.! My performance in Postal as ‘Nazi Theme Park Owner’ outperforms easily Ben Kingsley in Schindler’s List!”
You have to admire Uwe Boll’s bravado and ability to smack talk in the face of overwhelming defeat. His outlandish and comedically insulting challenge delights me and it will certainly be interesting to se how his strategy pans out. The weekend will certainly be getting a lot of buzz, and perhaps Uwe plans to piggy back the hype surrounding Indy 4. I know whenever I think of May 23 – I will be thinking about the epic battle that is about to take place.
Uwe had to release the film eventually and since no one wants to open against Indy 4 – it is hilarious that he chose that date to do so. The added insults to Spielberg and Harrison Ford (in the name of competition) shows that he has a sense of humor about the situation and perhaps even a plan. I think this is a way to get free press and I think we can expect to see more outlandish war shouts from Boll as the date draws near.
International friends; do you think Uwe Boll’s strategy is smart, stupid or strange?
