Joystiq has a post which caused thousands of people to raise their eyes heavenward in thanks. Uwe Boll will never direct a Metal Gear Solid film. From the article, which relays information from Kojima's ongoing podcast series: "Host Ryan Payton delivers a message from Kojima-san dispelling recent 'nasty rumors' that Uwe Boll is being considered to direct an upcoming Metal Gear Solid movie. Says Kojima: 'Absolutely not! I don't know why Uwe Boll is even talking about this kind of thing. We've never talked to him. It's impossible that we'd ever do a movie with him.'"

Although Resident Evil and 2 wasn't bad... I still won't forgive him over Doom.
Uwe Boll did not direct any of those movies.

But Uwe Boll? His movies are steaming piles of crap.

So they're Boll-shit?

You could argue that he isn't really directing any other movies either... (though he tries. He really does.)

who argued that video and computer games could not possibly rise to the level of an art form?
If so, what does he care who directs a movie based on his game? That's quite an affectation on Kojima-san's part, isn't it?

1) Not so.

2) Never EVER again imply that Uwe Boll creates *art*, you! For shame!

Really, the things people say around here... Uwe Boll... an artist... crazy!
