Uwe Boll in an Online Casino |
| A very popular online casino is always looking for exclusive promotional opportunities. Recently one of those was found in a German filmmaker Uwe Boll. Boll is widely thought of by movie critics to be the worst filmmaker in the world. He's made a number of films including Alone in the Dark, House of the Dead, In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale and, more recently, BloodRayne. His movies have made him rich but his critics have been pitiless in their judgment of his films for years. After taking the insults for years, Boll has challenged his critics to a boxing match, which will be sponsored by the online casino. It looks like Boll has never heard of the saying, "The pen is mightier than the sword." Boll defended his challenge, saying: "Many journalists make value judgments on my films based on the opinions of one or two thousand Internet voices. Half of those opinions come from people who've never watched my films." The online casino CEO says: "This event is perfect for us. We receive so many outlandish offers for advertising exposure that it is refreshing to see something that surprises even us. That is why we decided to get involved. This has gotten so much attention so far, and we can't wait to see how it will turn out." The online casino players might be interested in the matches as well and maybe even bet on a winner. |
