BloodRayne The Movie - More funny talk from Uwe Boll

[Despair]

In an interview with Monsters & Critics, Director Uwe Boll spoke about how the shoot in Romania is going on the Kristanna Loken movie:

"We are doing the biggest massacre in the movie right now, so we have five knights in this monastery in Romania right now and a huge battle with like one shot after another where people get killed or cut and half and stuff....for me it was important for me that our movie looked more like Braveheart. Real castles and monasteries, the mountains, etc. The locations make it more realistic and in that atmosphere the brutal fights and a lot of gore, so will be definitely a R rated movie...

Basically BloodRayne is a completely different movie to my previous ones. It is a video game based movie sure, but far more story orientated. I thought it would be good to move the story back and to tell the prequel really. To show how BloodRayne became BloodRayne in the 1700's. A franchise really, so maybe we can move a hundred years into the future for the next one, then later with the game story with the Nazi's and all that stuff, we can do it in part two or part three...

I want to do BloodRayne as really bloody period piece. It makes more sense to tell the whole story also where the Brimstone Society origins are and then we can make that jump to the story that plays in the time of the Nazi's".

He speaks of huge battle, and then "we have 5 knights" !!!

Heh, I was thinking the same thing. 5 knights hardly gives it a 'Braveheart feel'.

You know, I like the way he describes it as wanting it to be a "bloody period piece" but it's Uwe Boll, you know it's going to be complete trash. If you listen to the commnetary track on the House of the Dead DVD he thinks it's the most epic movie about zombies ever made.

I wonder if he'll have footage from the Bloodrayne game spliced into the flick ala HotD?

[Despair]

Probably not, since he will have to cut out of the nazis. The only footage from first game that would be ok, are the scenes in the Castle, when Rain fought those mutant vamps.

[MrWhitefolks]

my main question is...wtf does braveheart have to do with bloodrayne?

answer?

nothing. he's a german, and henceforth will have nothing to do with nazi's in any of his movies(ie...he completely ruined the bloodrayne script)

[Dolemite]

In Despair's interview he said he'd like to do the nazi stuff in a later movie.

Personally, however, I would have liked the movie to mirror the game's story. Vampires, Nazis, demons...could have been cool. Cool, that is, if anyone other than Uwe Boll directed it. Budget probably would have been too big, however.

This seems to be the problem with video game movies.

Back in the day when they were making shit like Street Fighter and Mario Bros, there was little to no story to work with, so directors and writers had to improvise a story and they basaically had full reign to do whatever.

Now that video games have these excellent stories that rival the movie industry, and all the action and plot is literally spelled out for them, the movie makers feel confined I guess, and want to show their own "vision" of what it should be.

It's all about creative control and "visions", regardless of whether or not everything is laid into place perfectly.

I'm sad that someone beat me to the $5 DVD of House of the Dead that was at a nearby store, I really wanted to hear his commentary. This man is a genius in all the wrong ways.

YES. Killing Nazis (especially the experimental techno-religion-enhanced-fused-with-God-whatever-random-craziness-rubberducky Nazi stuff that movies and books love) is great stuff, that's half of what made Bloodrayne enjoyable to me! Demons? Bring it on! Uwe Boll... um, yeah.

$5? I'd pick it up for that. It's worth it for the humor value alone.

Yeah, they really love to embellish the Nazis and make them have all sorts of wacky experimental technology and occult powers. It's just part of what makes them the ultimate bad-guys. You just can't get more evil than being a Nazi...well, unless you're a demon possessed, cybernetically enhanced, Jell-O pudding-powered Nazi, that is.

[Clash!]

The best when was he put that tyraid of a rant about people hating his House of the Dead movie, he tried to back it up on the face that he had the most stabs in like 30 seconds and crap like that. In that same tyraid he spelled Canada Kanada, and many other errors. The man is a moron, makes shitty movies and bought the movie rights to a whole batch of video games.

I think that games have a LONG way to go before they actually catch up with movie plot lines.



This guy is a tool btw.
