Why does he not apply these same skills to his film making?
Well, let's make an analogy:
Joe Rogan is an announcer for the UFC. I'm sure he knows quite a bit about fights, fighters and technique, since he's seen and announced for a lot of them.
Fair enough?
Well, Joe Rogan would be a terrible UFC fighter.
He knows plenty of stuff about it, but he doesn't know how to apply it. He doesn't have the education (In this case, the physical education).
Therefore, Uwe Boll knows plenty about good, classic films and pick them apart and really sound intelligent when it comes to films.
But then he cannot make a good film. Why? Because he knows lots of 'stuff', but he lacks the education (And I think raw creativity) to really apply it. And, on top of that, he has an ego that will more than likely stop any actual good advice to get through to him.
He's a lost cause, unless he can swallow his pride.
