That was it. His movies basically relied on not being successful. Didn't realise that they'd changed it later, but that doesn't necessarily apply to Rampage, which is the closest thing he has to a pet project, and isn't a terrible film adaptation. Hence the glorious tantrum.
TBH, Rampage was barely passable and watchable compared to his other movies which is like saying the least smelly turd in the toilet is the "best" turd. Its still shit.

Considering that crowdfunding is pretty much the will of the people, it is pretty clear they didn't wnated a film made by him. Also given his attitude, it only reinforce that anyone will no longer support him (I would like to see him trying to do everything himself). Ok sure there probably someone out there that will support him in one way or another but that person is just an idiot.

Lastly some ego he got there if he cannot let go of his pride to see what the real cause of his folly.

In saying so I wouldn't say every crowdfunded project that got fully funded are great, just look at Anita Sarkeesian.

Uwe Boll's entire film career is the plot to the Producers. He found the loophole teat, and milked it so dry the cow kicked him. And it wasn't just Uwe, big named companies where sending films to Germany just to skirt taxes. Germany changed their ways, and Uwe can't get work elsewise as his filmography will chase away even the most willing of publishers. This video is the death throws of a man who realized he's bust. And all I can say is I'm glad he has done everything he's done. I'm glad his actions caused Germany to close the doors on terrible movies that where designed only to fail. I'm glad directors can't just buy the rights to a video game on the cheap, not even bother to look at the source material at all, make a script from the box art and slap it into theatres knowing that it'll tank and still make him rich. And I'm glad he put up this video, as he's spit in the face of the fans for years, and finally they can show him how much they liked it with their wallets.

Let him play golf...

I feel like you're targeting the wrong... uh... target here, Mr. Boll... I may not care what the right target is in this situation, but I'm sure if you calm down and think about it in a rational way, I'm sure the real target would reveal itself to you in due time...

With all that said, you did remember that crowdfunding was, and still is, a gamble right, Mr. Boll? Right? *blinks* ...Right??

Okay, he did not just slander the name of Radagast the Brown.
Peter Jackson has done enough slandering of The Hobbit. We don't need anymore from Uwe.

How is it that he can't scrounge up $100k of his own money after all of his super amazing successful movies that he's always pulling out of his ass? (read: gets massive tax incentives by filming in places where that stuff goes down so the movies are always profitable)

Eh, first 2 Hobbit films were good fun, third one shit all over them and was an all around awful movie.

OT: What did people expect, this is Uwe Boll. Being an asshat runs in his blood.

However, the fact he's attacking absolutely everybody for not giving him money, thereby insulting everyone and making any future film making by him an impossibility, whilst bigging himself up and saying he's got loads of money anyway, is a certain kind of special.

I'm amazed he got backers. Hell two people, two actual people were willing to donate 500 euros to eat dinner with him and watch the movie. It turns out he has a lot more fans than I previously thought.

What I'm hearing is a rich guy doesn't get what he wants. I guess other people's money buys his happiness.

Well, yeah. It was made Uwe Boll. I think it's important to remember that it's distinct from the films he is best known for (Far Cry, Postal, Bloodrayne, Dungeon Seige), and I think it goes some way towards explaining his reaction.

Never mind the fact that he didn't raise as much money as he wanted, who the hell gave this twat any money to begin with? He boasts about how much money he has during his video complaining about not having enough money?
