We can say with the utmost certainty that hell has frozen over. Postal, the movie adaptation of the game of the same name, has won some awards. Actual awards, even. Instead of receiving or being nominated for a Golden Raspberry, Postal has been awarded Best of Festival at the Hoboken Film Festival. Furthermore, Uwe Boll, our favorite mutilator of gaming intellectual properties, has received the Best Director award. One could argue that this was because of Uwe Boll being a festival sponsor, but shhhh. Don't spoil the moment.
When asked about the award, producer Vince Desi had this to say:
Quote:
When the fans speak, we win. We know this from our experience in the game industry and now the film business just confirms it. The continued success of the POSTAL franchise in all its forms is proof that democracy works; you cannot stop what's in the hearts of the people. Freedom will always triumph over tyranny.
Because everyone knows that the panning of Uwe Boll's films and Vince Desi's games by critics is tyranny.
