It is said about Einstein's riddle that only 2% of the people can solve it. I think that this percentage also applies to people who know how to watch a movie. A friend of mine heard me and some other friend talking about a horror movie, but, I don't know how, he understood that the movie is a comedy. So he watched the whole movie waiting for some funny stuff and expecting to laugh, but obviously he didn't, because it was a horror. So, while me and the person which I've seen the movie with enjoyed the movie because we've seen it as it is, the other friend of mine thinks that the movie is crap, because he has seen an extremely bad comedy. Which I agree, as a comedy it was bad, but as a horror it was good.
The moral of the story is: be more open-minded when it comes to movies and don't judge them by your expectations and by the hype.
Uwe Boll's movies aren't bad, is the people's narrow-mindedness and the undeserved negative hype that makes his movies bad. Take for example "In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale". It has been criticised for bad special effects, bad directing, bad music. It was said that the krugs were awful made, that they are like walking mud, that they walk like monkeys etc. It's all because of the negative hype and because the people expected it to be bad, so they made it bad. The special effects were very good, the directing was good, the music was awesome. The krugs behaved and looked as they should have (after all, they were monkeys, just a bit more evolved). I think it is the best action/fantasy movie since LotR: RotK. Compared to Narnia and Golden Compass it was miles better. It's just very underrated because it was directed by Uwe Boll.
I also signed that petition and now I regret it (I signed it because of the hype myself, without even seeing the movies, and I'm sure that most people who signed that petition haven't seen his movies either).
