Week-End Podcast Roundup -- Everyone's On Time(!) Edition

It's been more than a few weeks since we've been able to say that all the weekly podcasts came in before midnight on Friday night but hallelujah, this week we're in under the wire. Admittedly, it's hard to pay attention to writing this with Uwe Boll making an ass of himself (is that possible? isn't that like an oxymoron?) on G4's Attack of the Show...right this minute. You're already missing it! Here's some stuff to occupy yourself with for, ummmm, the rest of the weekend -- and yeah, it's sorta kinda confirmed.

GFW Radio (feat. Jeff Green, Shawn Elliott, Sean Malloy, and Ryan Scott)
The GiantBombcast (feat. Jeff Gerstmann and Ryan Davis)
Joystiq Podcast (feat. Chris Grant, Ludwig Kietzmann and Justic McElroy)
The CAGcast (feat Cheapy D and Wombat)
The 1UP Show and 1UP Yours Podcast (feat. Garnett Lee, Shane Bettenhausen John Davison and Shawn Elliott)

We've barely begun digging into this week's podcasts as Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars may or may not have just arrived, pausing the full work week experience that is Grand Theft Auto 4. We'll have more to say on the former a little later in the week, though a full-blown review would be a little much at this juncture, no? In the meantime, we've got a party to attend in Philadelphia. Maybe we'll see you there!

Uwe Bolls Wants to Beat Your $#%, Michael Bay

It would be straight up unfair to not mention this to you fine folks. Known for directing such classy films as Alone in the Dark and House of the Dead, Uwe Boll has made a name for himself by inspiring hate as a byproduct of his work (especially from gamers.) His latest film, Postal, based on the terrible game of the same name has him back in the news, this time challenging Michael Bay (yes, that Michael Bay) to a boxing match after Bay had the gall to say he didn't care about Mr. Salad, er, Mr. Boll. This kind of thing wouldn't even normally be tied to his terrible productions, but this time his public statement of idiocy is meant to inspire folks who were out there fence sitting about seeing it. So in other words, this is targeted at nobody. It is, however, hilarious. Good luck removing Uwe-isms from your daily conversations!

Uwe Boll is Never Making a WoW Movie...Ever

And seriously, thanks to the benevolent being that granted us with this truth. According to the MTV Movies Blog, "The Bowl" (or "The Bowel", depending on what day you ask us) approached Blizzard's Paul Sams about a movie adaptation of their cash producing virtual ziggurat and Sams had this to say in response, "We will not sell the movie rights, not to you…especially not to you." Boll continued digging his own personal ditch by adding, "Because it’s such a big online game success, maybe a bad movie would destroy that ongoing income, what the company has with it."

Even Uwe Boll himself knows the movies he directs are bad, apparently the hypothetical ones as well. In case you were looking to read more hilarious quotes from the man who needs a good PR assistant more than anyone, the rest of the piece can be found here.
