NY Post sues Uwe Boll for infringement

Woooo! Whip his ass!

put a crazy tat on his face and he looks just like mike tyson

That site of his is incredible disgusting.
I have never seen an uwe boll movie so I dont know how bad his movies are or if I should Brag about it,I suppose I should.

I never watched a UWE BOLL movie YEAH!.

It's an obvious parody of their site. Another ridiculous lawsuit.

huh?

The "unspecified damages" needs to be a total disbarring from the movie industry, for the entire Boll bloodline, just in case.

Wow. It's the stupid suing the stupid. Damn you Joystiq for making me laugh uncontrollably at work.

That website is terrible. If it was possible, I'd hate him even more. The trailer was bad, but some of the crap on that site was just unbelievable.

As much of a human turd this guy is, you can't really sue him over a parody. It's not like it's www.nypost.org/movie or something

And his contribution to society is what?

As much as I hate this guy, this is just an attempt by NYP to grub as much cash as possible from something that they know for a fact isn't going to cause any 'damages' other than getting their panties in a twist.

WiNG and Bloo are right. As tasteless as this might be, parody is protected speech and this is clearly the case. All NY Post is going to succeed in doing is to bring a lot more attention to Boll and his site, games and films... which is probably a driving reason for him doing this in the first place

That picture makes me laugh every time.

Why can't this guy and Jack Thompson have a baby and then all three of them die in a parasailing accident?

This is just like Alien Vs. Predator...whoever wins, we lose.

I could never get the New York Times website and the Postal website confused. A person would have to be a true idiot to do so, in that case, would be more likely to go watch Postal than read the New York Times.

I gotta side with Boll on this one.

He's trying his best, it seems, but it's REALLY hard to stink more than the New York Post.

while we all sure as hell want to hurt uwe boll, the lawsuit seems like bull and wont hold up in court.

Couldn't they have just sued him for being Uwe Boll?

looked at the website and uwe boll deserves to get his ass beat repeatedly with a dildo until he dies. an excerpt from the website.

"All 3,000 victims of the World Trade Center attack were not heroes.

They were bankers! People who would let nothing stand in the way of making a quick buck!

Why are these people heroes?

Because they died? Because they were Americans?

I have the details on every single victim that day...
proving that each and every one of them deserved to die!"

I know that the website is in parody and understand that, but DO NOT insult the innocent people that died on one of the most tragic days in America's history. To ridicule the dead, and indirectly families and children of the victims who may be going to school for the first time this year without their mommy/daddy to be there with them, is beyond tasteless.

If Uwe boll is still offering people qa chance to box him then I would love to take him up on his challenge in the name of the 3,000 people he insulted that cannot defend themselves because they are dead.

There's no way Boll was clever enough to come up with the stuff on that site. There had to be some direct Running With Scissors involvement there...

It's time for the New York Post to laugh at itself. It's only a joke!

PLEASE JOYSTIQ HOOK ME UP WITH A FIGHT WITH THIS DOUCHE. I'LL LET YOU PUT A FAKE TATTOO ON MY BACK (FREE ADVERTISING!!!) I'M SERIOUS TOO! PPV IT YOU KEEP THE PROCEEDS JUST GIVE ME A SIX PACK OF BEER. (sorry for the caps I want the Mods to see this)

His video making fun of the NY Post "catering to the lowest common denominator" was kind of funny. I don't really understand the point of the movie, but I'm guessing, as a non-American, he is trying to show just how ridiculous this whole international situation has become. Everyone is fighting in the name of something, but that's not what is going to fix anything. That's my only guess as to his intentions, and I can understand how a European wouldn't mind taking a few potshots at Americans; we're still licking our wounds from six years ago, the Euros are still getting attacked on their home turf. While I'm not anti-Iraq or anything, I'm surprised more "Democrats" haven't jumped on his bandwagon.

Well, I don't really care what he has on the site. It's obviously a publicity stunt for the movie. However, if you look closely, he did steal images from the real site (even including a trademark symbol), so he did violate copyright in that way. I could see him having to pay a reasonable fine and having to change the images for doing that, but turning over the domain makes no sense. Of course, there's no way of telling whether or not the New York Post is actually involved with this, simply creating a false news story to make people think that they are suing him. It's been done before.

Now here's a thinker: Which is more laughable, Uwe Boll or The Post?
