www.kickstarter.com/projects/1544635303/postal-2Using Kickstarter to fund his next film is none other than......... UWE BOLLOh well, hopefully next Tommy Wiseau decides to crowdfund a sequel to "The Room" EDIT: Just watched the video he has on the main page that is SUPPOSED TO explain the project and it is ridiculously insane. Half of it is him ranting on scientology and Tom Cruise, including how much he hated "Oblivion." I got major Iron Shiek vibes off of it.

I was honestly hoping this would be about Henry Winkler wanting to legitimately jump a shark, and garnering donations to do so.

Remember for years people were wondering where that hack Uwe Boll got funding to make his awful films from? Well now we know!

Tommy Wiseau started a kickstarter, he'd reach his goal in a day. There needs to be more Wiseau films.

A website like Kickstarter doesn't "jump the shark" just because some director whom has done mostly bombs uses it. I don't like Uwe Boll, but at least this is for Postal 2. I never saw the first one but every last person I've seen talk about it on the Webs has said its actually his one good film (as good as a film by him can be anyway). So I don't mind if this gets funded.

Hmm, let me see, which project will define this month in Kickstarter when it comes to figures most known for their work surrounding videogames? Will it be Uwe Boll? Somehow I doubt it.

So the usual people that give him have caught on that he is a terrible film-maker/person?

If it is for Seed 2, I am going to be pissed at you all if it gets money.

You know, with stuff like Sharknado, why in the blue hell isn't there a Syfy movie called "Jump the Shark" yet?
Crazy, Jigsaw-like ex-director or producer of a cheesy Baywatch rip-off gets attacked by a shark on set, survives, becomes some sort of Shark Master, kidnaps the annoying stars of that show, and forces them to literally jump sharks.

Once again, it's not like the Fonz is doing all that much. Cast him. |

If they make a movie called Jump the Shark it should feature literal jumping sharks that are also ninjas |

nowhere close to as bad as the guy asking donations for what was basically a "how to rape women" book.

While I do think its lame that someone like Uwe Boll is using kickstarter to fund what will most likely be just another one of his shitty films when he has never had any trouble finding funding for his films before. But meh its hardly jumping the shark as there has been far far far far far worse projects purposed (E.G that rape manual that was mentioned a couple of posts above)
