Apparently he thinks that P2P is the reason that his movie did poorly. Well, as someone who has had the misfortune to actually see part of the movie....yeah....that's not why nobody bought it. Sorry Uwe, you just made another really bad movie.

Hahaha, yup... I wanna say it was originally only released in Germany..

EDIT:
Also, for any Netflix subscribers, I believe they had it available for streaming if you want to check it out. That way you don't even have to pay any more money to suffer..and it's legal. ;)

This is the first I've heard of any Far Cry movie. Maybe they should have advertised it. It might have done better if they had a separate company make a trailer that was good (had nothing to do with the movie). That way they could have at least tricked people into seeing it.
It looks like that's it for movies though. It was a good run. If they made a Far Cry movie, there really is nothing else to film. It's all been done. Oh well.

Well, I wasn't totally disappointed because most movies suck. I was at the rental store doing this, "I need to scratch an itch for an action movie. What will not completely suck?" The movie delivered in the crappy-action-movie-that-does-not-totally-suck department. It was pretty bad though.
