The Genius of Uwe Boll Assault on Wallstreet

This guy Uwe Boll is a true baller. I would even say he is more of a baller than most here on Wallstreet Oasis. All of his movies are a complete failure, they score terribly, they are not profitable at all. However, this guy is able to score 3 million to 60 million bucks a year from investors, even though his movies always fail and don't make money. He is ballsy and gutsy, and never gives up. Would any of you guys be able to secure 3 million to 60 million every single year from investors, for your startups despite constant failure? I think not. Apparently, he is able to somehow take advantage of German tax loopholes, so that investors are always throwing millions of dollars at him, even though his movies never make money. Somehow, the investors are profitable from tax rebates, and tax writeoffs when his movies always fail. It's somehow part of their business model to fail on purpose to be profitable.

Imbecile or strategic genius you decide......

I like the part when he goes around sniping people on wallstreet, that went around crying for bailouts lolz. It just goes against my sense of meritocracy.

Here is a synopsis for his latest movie:
A security guard for an armored truck, Jim (Dominic Purcell) is a blue-collar New Yorker who works hard to earn a living. His wages support himself and his wife Rosie (Erin Karpluk), who is on the upswing recovering from a near-fatal illness. Yet things start to fall apart after Rosie's health insurance stops covering her treatment and Jim's life savings are lost via a disastrous investment his stockbroker had advised him to make. As a row of professional and personal dominoes falls, Jim is confronted by the realization that, after being abused and exploited by financial institutions for far too long, he has only one choice: to strike back

Uwe Boll is the chief of not giving a fuck... one of his movies features a guy walking into a beauty salon and shooting a bunch of young, attractive, 20-some year old women.

"Yes. Money has been a little bit tight lately, but at the end of my life, when I'm sitting on my yacht, am I gonna be thinking about how much money I have? No. I'm gonna be thinking about how many friends I have and my children and my comedy albums."
 

I like Bane more.
