I want to see this film, it looks so awful that it must be worth a few laughs - probably get as an ex-rental DVD for a few quid

I'm planning to wait for this on DVD anyways. I doubt it'll open in theaters near me as they skipped over several movies I wanted to see or delayed them for a month. I don't see why he thinks the movie is important for the reasons he says it is. Didn't Fahrenheit 9/11 convey the message he says is in there, just without the comedy and using a movie based on a video game to do it?

While Postal did look watchable.
Uwe has seemingly tried a different tactic with this movie.
Instead of just making a terribly awful film(Blood Rayne, House of the Dead, Alone in the Dark etc. Though I'm surprised he wasn't responsible for the suck-fest that was DOA), or making a movie where the only acting direction given to the cast was "do whatever the @#$% you want, I don't care, wanna fight about it?" like in "In The Name of a King: A Dungeon Siege Tale"
For Postal he went with the "lets make horrible jokes that are in bad taste but funny none the less and hope the shock-value will get us more than a 3 star movie this time" tactic.
Anyone who wanted to see this movie, I implore you to wait for it to hit DVD, seriousy, it'll only take about a month, hell the DVD may be already on shelves.
I mean honestly, while the 9/11 Window Washer trailer was hilarious in that "holy crap, I can't believe they did that, I shouldn't laugh but I do anyway because I have a sense of humor" way. The movie itself looked like normal Uwe Boll flavored crap.
We've seen that big name actors can't save a Uwe Boll film(In The Name of a King, Blood Rayne), so how could Gary Coleman and 9/11 jokes possibly make a Boll movie any better?
If anything, it'd be like Jackass The Movie, or Jackass 2. The only real reason to watch it in a mindless couch induced coma to kill braincells. But then, why pay $7 to make yourself that much dumber? Sure .50 is acceptable, even $1.50 for the rental fee. But not the full movie ticket.
Please, help the economy, don't give Uwe Boll money.
Also, I need to challenge Uwe Boll to Mortal Combat, I can garuntee that upon killing him I'd be given a medal for upstanding citizen, and never tried for murder.

You would have an "innocent" vote from me if I were on your trial.
