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.

More quotes by 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
Heart of America is a movie I'm very proud of. The young actors are great and the story has impact.
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
I produce for a low price and I sell it on my own to 80 countries.
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
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
If people hate me they hate me.
Uwe Boll
I like the direct contact. I want a lot of people that only know me through the mass media to learn more about what I'm doing, and to know that I'm an independent filmmaker and I'm not part of the Hollywood system. I'm coming from where they started. I'm not coming from a family with a lot of money.
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
I think Alone in the Dark was too much an action creature movie than a horror creature movie.
Uwe Boll
I think without the harsh critics, I would maybe have not made progress. From BloodRayne on, I spent more time and money on the development.
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
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
Maybe you know it but it's not so easy to finance movies in total. And the reason I am able to do these kind of movies is I have a tax shelter fund in Germany, and if you invest in a movie in Germany you get basically fifty percent back from the government.
Uwe Boll
The Postal is a ruthless, Mad TV-type thing. We sent out a DVD to the South Park producers, and they liked the movie so much that we can say now, It's like South Park with real actors on the trailers and posters.
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
Postal will be so politically incorrect and harsh, it's like a mirror to American society, and I don't think the movie will be well received by everybody. For example, Osama Bin Laden will be one of the lead characters - I think that shows the mood of the movie.
Uwe Boll
Homer is the nice side of Al Bundy with the same intellect. I really like him and Al Bundy.
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.
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.
