Enter the Amazing Fantasy World of Uwe Boll
So I’m dicking around Rotten Tomatoes to watch the savaging of Uwe Boll’s new flick In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, when I read this gem from the film’s Official Summary:
In the breathtaking fantasy adventure, In The Name of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, director Uwe Boll conjures up a medieval world filled with royal treachery, dark magic and spectacular battles, all set against some of the most awe-inspiring vistas ever captured on film
Pausing only briefly to marvel at the number of lies in that single sentence, I very much wanted to see some of the most awe-inspiring vistas ever captured on film, so I went to the IfNotK:ADST (as the fans like to call it) to check out the stills. Come join me on a magical journey, won’t you?
L to R: An actor who should know better, a man who dipped his head in glue then fell in yarn, a confused and/or constipated Jason Statham, an actress who doesn’t know better, and Brian White
Kristanna Loken, preparing to mark her territory
More after the jump…
Statham, trying desperately to figure out how this scene fits into ‘The Transporter 3’
Burt Reynolds embarrassing himself beyond words, no easy task
The tail end of Claire Forlani’s career
One of the most awe-inspiring vistas ever captured on film
