I’m a bit late in posting this awesome video featuring Uwe Boll responding to the online petition against him, which I argued against last week. But since a new pro-Boll petition has shown up online, I’m glad to be posting it late rather than having to bring you daily coverage of the most hated filmmaker in the world. Even if each update is more hilarious than the last.

Boll himself called for the second petition, which he seems sure will have just as much chance of being signed by a million people. The self-proclaimed “only fucking genius in the business” may need to wait awhile, though, as the number of current anti-Boll signatures is nearly 200,000 while the number of pro-Bollers is only at 4. The issue may be that none of us have yet seen Boll’s new film, Postal, which he says is “way better than all that social-critic George Clooney bullshit that you get every fucking weekend.”

I’m a bit torn, unfortunately, with supporting the new petition any more than I support the first one. Based on the request by Boll and the words on the petition, this is a petition to affirm your appreciation of his films. Well, since I’ve never seen any, I can’t rightly sign. Though one of the four signatures is from a person claiming to be merely supporting Boll’s freedom to make movies, and that is also my position, I would rather not be confused for one of his fans.
