Uwe Boll's POSTAL
http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=62899
"The movie will be so politically incorrect and harsh, it's like a mirror to American society, and I don't think the movie will be well received by everybody. For example, Osama Bin Laden will be one of the lead characters - I think that shows the mood of the movie."
So what will Bin Laden's role be, exactly? Well, Boll explains, the idea is that he's holed up in Tucson, Arizona, running a Taliban camp. "That shows a little bit how politically incorrect Postal will be - it's really an underground, alternative point of view. Let's wait and see; I think we will suprise a lot of people."
Boll confirms that Diff'rent Strokes and Postal star Gary Coleman is already signed up to play himself in the film, but he's yet to find a leading man to take on the role of the Postal Dude. One thing's for sure - he'll be going for a comedic actor, "Like a Matthew Lillard, for example, or Ron Perlman," rather than a serious type.

Postal is one of my favorite game series and if done right it could've been a great cult hit. But unfortunately the butcher of video game films is working on it, and that's a tragedy. The first contestants of Uwe Boll's boxing match were announced.

At least this time he appears to be *trying* to make something wacky instead of just doing it by accident. And again, he's adapting a game that has little-to-no mainstream name recognition... yet he'll end up alienating that small fanbase the most with the final product.
