A little update on Uwe Boll: Recently, in 2016 he retired from filmmaking and decided to open his own restaurant which has actually received positive reviews from food critics.
Years back, I actually did interview Uwe Boll for my old site I had. I can actually confirm yes, Michael Madsen was indeed drunk the whole time and that he did infact *hate* Uwe Boll.
28:06 I always love how Linkara is holding an non-existent comic book out of sheer habit and then he realizes what he is doing and tries to just shrug it off. Wonderful little detail.
Spoony is still alive but he’s an emotional wreck. His bipolar has gotten worse to the point where he won’t even accept help from people, he lashes out easily, all the Patreon money has dried up, he lost his house, he lost his website and his girlfriend left him. All he does now is do really silent live-streams on occasion and get aggressive when people say stuff he doesn’t like
Actually Ben Kingsley only did this movie because he had always wanted to play a vampire, he's since gone on to say it may have not been his best decision.
Here's a fun little fact for you The Main chick is a Dhampire. She's specifically called that by the fortune teller. By definition, a Dhampire is a hybrid of a human and a vampire (rarely born of a happy union between the two species). Dhampires would technically be considered STRONGER than a vampire; because they have all of the strengths of a vampire, with only one of the weaknesses. That weakness, being the thirst. Dhampires are supposed to be immune to the effects of silver/quicksilver, garlic, and sunlight; meanwhile they get the supernatural capabilities. So her having ANY of these vampire weaknesses despite being a creature that is described as being IMMUNE to almost any weakness of a vampire, is absolute stupidity.
Mona Teasley Darren Shan Saga is very similar to what this comment is describing, in the DSS though it's not immunity, it's partial or mostly immune, it also takes out ALOT of the current Vampire Mythos aswell... but aye, people are first made into "Half bloods" by a mentor taught about how to live and survive and generally assist the mentor, then they are fully blooded and that's really as far as you get to know throughout the saga, I haven't read the entirety of the prequel saga, but it's much more adult and is interesting if you're a history buff.
"But all the water, all the buzz saws, and all the giant guards are no match for their final defense: a polite man who nicely asks her to come with him." That's my favorite part.
6:12 this is actually from the video game--Rayne takes damage from any bodies of water. However, I read in a vampire encyclopedia that some vampires are sensitive or afraid of water because water is a natural substance of the Earth, and because they are unnatural and undead, it "purifies" their impurity, which is why it burns like it would if it were liquid fire. Same thing for witches. It doesn't necessarily have to be blessed water. But this is one of those more rare folklore "rules" among vampire weaknesses. Such as vampires hate nets or tied-up ropes because they feel compelled to untie all the knots, or throwing seeds on the ground, they stop what they're doing and count them like they have OCD. lol
@@cyborgninja5489 No worries, it was a dumb joke lol I almost didn't put it in because I didn't know if it would be too mean given Meatloaf's passing but I just figured I would throw it out there to see if it made sense to anyone other than me haha
He says “every time I review an Uwe Boll movie” as if he’s done several reviews of his films, even though this the second time in years he’s done this. Critic, we need mor Boll reviews
He's well known for writing and acting the ending speech for The Great Dictator. He's a perfectionist as a director. The flower scene in City Lights took 342 takes. [last lines] A Jewish Barber: I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible; Jew, Gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone, and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost. The airplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men; cries out for universal brotherhood; for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men, women, and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me, I say, do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. Soldiers! Don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you; who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel! Who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines, you are not cattle, you are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts! You don't hate! Only the unloved hate; the unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! In the seventeenth chapter of St. Luke, it is written that the kingdom of God is within man, not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people, have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy, let us use that power. Let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise. They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfill that promise. Let us fight to free the world! To do away with national barriers! To do away with greed, with hate and intolerance! Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness. Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us all unite! Hannah, can you hear me? Wherever you are, look up Hannah! The clouds are lifting! The sun is breaking through! We are coming out of the darkness into the light! We are coming into a new world; a kindlier world, where men will rise above their hate, their greed, and brutality. Look up, Hannah! The soul of man has been given wings and at last he is beginning to fly. He is flying into the rainbow! Into the light of hope, into the future! The glorious future, that belongs to you, to me and to all of us. Look up, Hannah. Look up! Mr. Jaeckel: Hannah, did you hear that? Hannah: Listen...
I was just waiting for during this video, Michael Madsen to say, "It's not true! It's bullshit! It's not true! I did not hit her! I did not. (Throws Water Bottle) Oh, Hai Mark!"
I feel bad for the actress, as she's actually good and always tries to give a proper performance even when stuck in shitty projects. Hope her career will go up.
@@whatdoyoubelieve8572 I am sure somewhere in the depths of south west or the south of america, maybe even parts of south america, there is a single blockbuster standing as well.
@@stormweaver82 My parents, to this day, receive two of those per month to watch. They might not be as popular these days, but it is still a service they provide, and people still use it. Not in the middle of nowhere either.
II D3ADB1RD II Nope it’s not just you. I literally scrolled the comments looking to see if anyone else had commented on it. When I saw the Netflix dvd I immediately looked at the upload date
Albus Kane The "fun fact" thing was a joke. What I meant is that I THOUGHT they spent MOST of the money in the cast, with around 2-3% of the budget left for everything else. The reason behind this statement is because the budget was over $25 millions, yet it looks like it was made with just $100,000. This movie has famous actors a sthe film's stars. They needed to be paid A LOT to get them into this film. Someone can easily assume my statement by just looking at it.
Its totally interesting. This guy was really drunk THE WHOLE TIME. Uwe Boll filmed this movie in romania. He couldnt "simply" throw this guy off his set. Then Uwe would had to cast another guy, fly him over and record everything. So he decided he stay in this Movie.
@@sweetcinnamonpnchkin In the game any water killed vampires on contact. Rayne herself was dhampir so it scalded her instead, killing her if she remained in it. It made for a good environmental obstacle. Meanwhile shallow power trip games about killing Nazis generally don't make for good movies but that was probably never a concern to the people who made the thing.
Okay, story time. I was working at AMC when this movie came out. I didn't even know it was there, till I looked up what movies we had. Now at the time I didn't know who Uwe Boll was I just saw Bloodrayne, I like the series so hell why not. I got off work and made it to the last show of the night. Now because I worked there I got to see it for free, after watching that shit I felt like I should have been payed overtime. To top this shit cake with a nice shitty icing my dad had got me a gift a movie based on another game series I loved, House of the Dead. I was pissed, House of the Dead my ass it was a shack on a island and that's not counting all the other things wrong with it. How do you fuck that up... hell how do you fuck up any video game movie the lore is written for you. So, yeah 2 Uwe Boll movies in 1 shitty night. I'm lucky to still be alive.
+Ray Hyoton What happened on that day? Was it Friday the 13th and you dropped a ladder on a reflective countertop which spilled salt while a black cat crossed you?
"How do you fuck up any video game movie." Dude is 2017 and we STILL haven't gotten a video game movie that we can look to and say, this is how you adapt a video game. They all either fail all together, fail at the box office but gain a cult fallowing, or do decent at the box office but fail with fans. At this point the best video game movie in terms of audience reception and box office returns is Angry Birds. Let that sink in.
shadowspider9 i think a Elder Scrolls or Fallout tv series could be good though like for Fallout u could have a mercenary going across the Southern USA doing jobs for hire and took a job that plunged him into a world of danger and despair and becoming a leader of a rebel group trying to overthrow the enclave that established in southern Louisiana and u have to recruit ghouls raiders and alligator or crocodile like deathclaw creatures and u then defeat nations like Caesar's legion
So let me get this straight. NC has canonically driven into oncoming traffic with a car full of explosives soaked in gasoline, singing "I'm a yankee doodle dandy" while firing a semi-automatic. He then crashed the car and exploded the airport while stealing a plane, only to jump out of a plane with a sledgehammer and bash his head in? I thought I was the only one who did that...
@@Shiratto OK seriously what is wrong with you people how are you like this why are you like this I know it's bad but why would you do any of that! .... all I ever did was kill a nun and eat cauliflower.
GUYS GUYS GUYS!!!!!! Your never gonna believe this but i just teamed up with Batman, Superman, Goku, Chuck Norris, Naruto, Monkey D Luffy, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, and Captain America to fight Satan and his army of demons from another dimension who can warp space and time and then i met God.
Were they an amy of pirate ninja demons who joined the Third Reich? And did you ever asked the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, X-Men and Power Rangers to join the fight?
+SunnyD Wukong Oh come on. Aren't you aware fighting pirate ninja demons from the Third Reich is in now? And gettin the Power Rangers, X-Men and Turtles would girl and advantage.
One of the biggest slaps to the fans of the series. The setting is wrong (the first game is set before and around World War II, hence Nazis; the second game is in modern times turned a vampire rendition of Fallout, none of them medieval fantasy). Boll makes Rayne out to be an insulting form of who she should be. Action is bad. Sex for no good reason (Rayne may be considered one of the sexiest characters in games, Boll, that still doesn't excuse it). And just for the plain fact that UWE BOLL directed it. It's so bad, even Laura Bailey, Rayne's original VA HATED this movie.
dark lord of sword Just saying Assassin’s Creed and Warcraft prove Hollywood still wants to try and make off video game movies. Uwe is out simply because he can’t cheat taxes any more to make money.
I personally disagree, as I liked TF5 (really bad comedy notwithstanding), and I thought Doug didn't get everything right in his predictions, but to each their own,
MediaMan18 Yea, but, as someone who's been following the comics and the really well - made TF Prime for a while now, in the movie they keep throwing in plot elements that are interesting, but instead of building up to that, they instead choose to focus more on the humans again, with so much awkward dialogues and really bad editing. _It hurts, man._
24:56 Linkara: My God,man! You're being stabbed! Don't you care?! Spoony: It's like he's barely awake! Nostalgia Critic: What would it take to get an actual emotion out of this guy? I don't know why,but their reaction to that scene makes me laugh so much. XD
Let's try and picture the worst movie that could possibly be made... Written by Uwe Boll Directed by M Night Shyamalan Produced by Michael Bay and Starring Tommy Wiseau... AAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
