A movie like House of the Dead with around $7 million budget or Alone in the Dark with around $16 million budget are much easier to make profit than the typical $50 million major motion picture.

More quotes by Uwe Boll
Now while the German money is over for Hollywood, I still have $80 million to make movies, and we will have two things coming up: less major movies and the price for actors will go down.
Uwe Boll
I think video games are a great kind of entertainment. They have replaced a lot of games people normally play with their friends and neighbours, like Monopoly.
Uwe Boll
I always try to get games of different genres. This is the reason Postal is a comedy, and Far Cry is a real, pure action movie - like Die Hard on an island - and In The Name Of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale was my opportunity to do my epic, Braveheart, Lord Of The Rings, Gladiator movie. I try not to repeat myself in genres too much.
Uwe Boll
I play PC and Xbox games at home, and I just got a PSP as a birthday present.
Uwe Boll
House of the Dead 2 I gave away. Alone in the Dark 2 I will also not do even if the DVD movie made money. BloodRayne 2 in the Wild West is what I really want to do.
Uwe Boll
My favourite game is Postal because it is so politically incorrect.
Uwe Boll
The thing is, I think as a director or a writer or whatever, you have to have a vision. And you have to be maybe sometimes too early, somewhere.
Uwe Boll
So if you want to have a great video game-based movie you have to keep the mood of the game, use the normal character setup - but you have to flesh out the story and provide more background for the characters.
Uwe Boll
In the Seventies, a lot of executions via electric chair failed because of technical problems. Seed tells the true story of someone who survived and sought revenge. They buried him alive to make it seem he was dead.
Uwe Boll
I had $60,000 for my first movie. I was 33 before I made any money off of movies. I worked my ass off for free. To get that I'm enemy number one among young kids is a little absurd.
Uwe Boll
So if I get these actors for 30% of their price by coming in so late with an offer when they know they are not getting another offer then I do it this way.
Uwe Boll
I think the harsh reviews helped, in that I spent way more energy in the preproduction and development. From this point of view, I'm very thankful for the harsh critics. I still think the critics were unnecessarily insulting in a lot of things, but I think it helped.
Uwe Boll
In The Name of the King is the right title. To be honest, I don't know who had the final idea for the title but I liked it and it has a strong connection to the movie's story.
Uwe Boll
If people hate me they hate me.
Uwe Boll
Slater's a big star and he's been in the business a long time. He's always in a good mood and easygoing but he takes his character very seriously.
Uwe Boll
Interview with a Vampire was lots of sex, so I'm not sure.
Uwe Boll
We thought about it, what we want to tell, and I didn't want to move it directly into the Nazi times. I thought it's much more interesting to see how BloodRayne became BloodRayne.
Uwe Boll
As a filmmaker, I get compared to people who have no clue how to do anything, but because of some Internet writing, it looks like they would actually be better filmmakers. I think this is absurd.
Uwe Boll
Actors don't have real value.
Uwe Boll
House was the first film where I had no influence on the script. I had to buy the script with the game rights.
