Remember the evil German guy?

The trailer for Postal.

"My movies are financed with Nazi Gold!"

Oh, God, Uwe. Just when I thought he couldn't get any lower. I think you can see him whipping the evil guy, though.

Dave Foley's a brave man, though.

No problem, glad to help. What's sad is that if the trailer were better, I could see myself watching this movie.

umm... not sure I'd want to watch that... however some parts look funny...I think...

It looks like a Zucker/Abrahms/Zucker version of Falling down. Only without the talent.

Man, I'd love to see a ZAZ "Falling Down"...

Dave Foley's a brave man, though.

Dave Foley has fallen a far, far distance. He's hosted a celebrity poker series for pete's sake. He must have enormous debts to pay off, that's all I can say.

How depressing.

I live in a happy world where I assume NewsRadio gave him enough independance to do whatever he wants, and if he wants to make an Uwe Boll film with full frontal, MPTH.

[thebitterguy]

He's an infamously bad director. This looks to be trying to capitalize on his reputation. It still may be really, really bad.

[thebitterguy]

Yeah, but they're collaborating with the Wayans now, so the comedy value has been successfully leached from the work.

I know better than to watch that. :P

Dave, Dave, Dave. *sigh*

It's only David Zucker and "collaborating" is the wrong word; "repairing" seems a better one. "Scary Movie 3" is no "Airplane", but it was vastly better than the first two.

I just remember thinking "how do you parody Scream?"

It's like making a milkshake that's designed to taste like a milkshake.

The original "Scary Movie" illustrates the Wayans love nothing better than to take a cheap joke worth one laugh and promptly beat it to death. The one-off quick shot gags, honestly, made me laugh; the extended ones made me either yawn or cringe, with the exception of the loud, obnoxious theater patron being beaten to death. Not subtle, but a scene long overdue.

The third one has much better flow and is just a better constructed comedy, although one wishes this was a full return of ZAZ, and it still has a woeful reliance on idiot humor. Still, any movie where a corpse gets 50,000 volts, an annoying child is repeatedly run over, and Simon Cowell is gunned down is worthwhile in my book.

Pretty much. I suspect he did this just to keep his name out there. Either that or the rumors about Uwe giving amazing head are true.
