Nothing, actually. Uwe Boll, the infamous director behind such works as "In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale" and "BloodRayne," told Multiplayer in an e-mail that he didn't attend Los Angeles film celebration this past Sunday.
In fact, Boll has never attended the Oscars, nor does he plan to change that. Does that explain the ceremony's lowest ratings in history? Maybe not, but in addition to simply not living alongside much of Hollywood's elite in the Los Angeles area, Boll is currently busy completing production of his latest project, an adaptation of Ubisoft's "Far Cry."
Anyone who followed my work at 1UP likely realized I'm an unabashed fan of Boll's work, albeit one could argue it's for all the wrong reasons, if you're interested in the kind of movie that's nominated for an Oscar. Boll's films have a certain intangible appeal.
Oh, and for those that were wondering if Boll thought anyone was snubbed by the Academy this past weekend, worry not. "They made good choices," he said.
