Uwe Boll Destroys Another Franchise - Postal Can someone stop him?	By Silviu Stahie, Video and PC Games Editor 24th of October 2005, 14:27 GMT Adjust text size:


Start firing those AK-47s into the air because "Postal", the game franchise that politicians, parent groups, countless cowardly reviewers and over a dozen sovereign nations don't want you to play has just become the latest game to make the transition to the big screen. Running with Scissors, the world's most dangerous software company, has signed an appropriately apocalyptic deal with renegade filmmaker Uwe Boll to bring the most controversial franchise in gaming history to the screen in all its blood-drenched, ironic glory. Despite everyone from Steven Spielberg to Microsoft is announcing big budget deals involving films based on video games, this new partnership between controversial figures in the game and movie industries is destined to become an incendiary game-to-film deal yet. "Uwe Boll is the perfect producer-director to make Postal," affirmed Running With Scissors' CEO, Vince Desi. "He understands the subject matter and has an appreciation and affinity for controversy and political incorrectness. Postal has always been about reason and insanity, violence and motivation; producer-director Uwe Boll is simply the right guy to bring that vision to the screen."
