Shocker: Postal Devs Say that Uwe Boll Did a Good Movie!

They need help. Blame Uwe!

No, we really doubt that Uwe Boll is able to create a good movie, but Running With Scissors really seems confident that the director did a great job and created one hell of a Postal movie - the
same that will be released on the 23rd of May this year. Whatever is the case here, we will always love Uwe since he is a real dreamer and has a great English.

You probably know that Postal will have some serious competition from a film that much more people really expect to see: the latest Indiana Jones movie. But Uwe is sure that his Postal kicks arse: "We will go out and destroy Indiana Jones at the box office!" thundered the director of the first film "to win him positive reviews, even from the video game community" (RWS words here). Boll attributed the delay of the film's rollout to litigation involving the New York Post and his film's outrageous opening scene spoofing 9/11. "But now the field is clear," Boll vowed. Unfortunately.

However, as I've said already, the game's developers are pretty excited. It seems natural, with all their postal babes, but that's not the case right now. Instead, Vince Desi, CEO, is sure that the movie will rock - he has a role in it, too (Krotchy) and, yes, it seems that Uwe himself can be spotted somewhere. And that is even sadder.

However, all the good words about the Postal movie suddenly die if you pay a visit to the official Go Postal page, where a big banner says: "We need your support! If not for Uwe Boll, do it for us!". It links to the IMDB page where the game already has over 3000 votes and an overall rating of 4.3. And that is definitely not a good thing. So... no, we don't have a good Uwe Boll movie, after all. But it seems that we have quite some Postal babes there, so that should make it less boring.

Uwe Boll is a mad genius who utilizes the lowest forms of popular culture to make the most prescient and philosophical observations about modern society. Check out this brilliant review of Postal from Movie666:
