When told a petition at www.petitiononline.com had more than 18,000 signatures requesting Boll no longer make movies, the director responded by saying 18,000 wasn’t enough to convince him and that one million would do it.

Well, fans seem to be rallying behind the “one million” battlecry and nearly 200,000 fans have now signed the petition asking Boll to “stop directing, producing, or taking any part in the creation of feature films.” Read More »
