Thoughts: Stop Dr. Uwe Boll Petition

I really had to laugh when I heard about this petition. It's popped up on several film sites now including Total Film and FilmSchoolRejects. I know I've mentioned previously how much crap I think his movies are. And I'll stand by that. However, I feel like this petition is mostly just silly. I don't really believe that he'll stop making movies and honestly I'm not sure I believe he should stop anyway. I think it's completely lame that he's able to make films when other people, who probably deserve it more, can't but still. Freedom of expression, being able to do what you love, all that. If making crap makes him happy, then more power to him. I'm just not going to watch it.

However, if you're so inclined, feel free to sign yourself. Or at least join me with a good giggle:

About This Thing

This blog is about film and life in the wonderful world of LA. I'm a filmmaker just getting started; I'm navigating my way through the industry, trying to find work, and sometimes even managing to make a living.

I've worked across the country on projects big and small. Everything from an indie in PA shot during the dead of winter to one of the bigger reality shows involving Models and the things they do.

I also just love doing things*. I'm a writer, aspiring director, wannabe photographer and cook. I waste too much time on the internet and sometimes all I want to do is hang out with my dog.

Stick around and chances are you'll catch me writing about it all.

*I use the word "thing" a lot. An inappropriate amount. I can't help it. There are just so many different things to talk about. And I just kind of like it.
