Nearly everyone loves Sean Connery but he's also proof that some people just can't say no.  Maybe Ben Kingsley is the same way.  I saw an interview once with Sean Connery and he said, as a defense, that he felt it was better to be working than looking for work.  I suppose some people will take nearly anything if it's all that's on the table.

Silly people... why work if you don't have to?  If I had as much money as Connery, I'd say no to everything.

Sean Connery has said no to lots of stuff. He turned down the part of Gandalf in Lord of the Rings for instance. Problem is, he either has no clue what will be a good movie or has the worst agent in the world. Next to Ben Kingsley's.

I have also seen the trailer Haemish. It was 5 minutes. Which was about 4 and a 1/2 minutes too long. Which is weird. I liked the actress in T3. I like Michael Madsen. This trailer made me want to pull my intestines out of my own anus and strangle myself with them.

The girl looks trailer park dumpy and not cool.  She also looks like she is lost, not a viscious cold blooded killer.  Did they even play the game before they raped it?

Most people say 'baited' breath.  It's an old fisherman's joke... or muff divers joke... or something.  I think.

Anyway, it's almost never spelled correctly.

I can sort of understand why Hollywood continues to give work to this guy -- with rentals and DVD sales these days even crappy low-budget movies can make at least some money for studios -- but why on earth would they allow this guy to direct a $60 million dollar movie? That's mind-boggling.

Ok, now THAT causes me physical pain. I LIKE Jason Statham, though he has been cast in some truly bad movies over here, and generally misused to the nth degree. But an UWE BOLL FLICK? BASED ON DUNGEON SIEGE, a derivative clone of a deriviative hack and slash game? GAHHHH FUCK ME!

I eagerly await word that Dungeon Siege will be based in modern day San Francisco, and Statham will pack twin pistols of death that he carries on his pack mule name Paco.

I don't think "Hollywood" gives him any money (DS doesn't have a distributor for this reason). He executive produces most of this crap, so he likely gets most of his money directly from investors, likely in Germany. For some reason Germany provides MONUMENTAL tax advantages for producing films through German companies.  I think these movies are all gigantic tax shelters.

EDIT: Here is an article about the German tax shelters and how Hollywood also uses them to generate profits: http://www.slate.com/id/2117309

Yeah, that was one of the many stupid decisions of our administration. They wanted to boost the german movie business by providing tax cuts to movie projects and by creating a movie fund for those projects. The law involved was so badly made that subsequently every fucking hollywood studio got money out of this fund and was tax exempt in germany if they used some kind of german-based production company. Look at the poster of some hollywood blockbuster, there is a good chance that you'll find the logo of the "Deutsche Filmförderfond" (german movie fund)

This won't work any longer however because the law got scarpped.

We have a certain breed of totally stupid politicians, they have great ideas (or at least what they themselves deem great) but the laws they make are so buggy that you can hear most lawyers in germany cringe with frustration.

Off of the IMDB page for Dungeon Siege:

Burt Reynolds    ....    King Konreid



Now how could this movie possibly be bad?

Dungeons and Dragons had Jeremy "The Mission" Irons in it. Just mentioning. See you forgot your sarcasm green.

Then again Irons does tend to end up in not exactly art fare most of the time.

Okay, how about Raul Julia in Streetfighter? Bob Hoskins in Super Mario Brothers? Tom Hanks and Anne Francis in this little stinker?

The Time Machine wasn't that bad.  I actually thought the Goth morlock king Irons played was kinda cool, and should have been used for more than ten minutes.
