[edit] Added detailed synopsis

I saw Postal last night at a special screening at the Tribeca Cinemas. I've added a detailed plot synopsis that I believe covers all important events in the film.

And surprise! ...It was actually really funny! I was shocked. 207.45.43.67 (talk) 21:15, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] to win

"It has been confirmed that one of the combatants will be famous Internet comedy writer Richard 'Lowtax' Kyanka, who has stated that he does not intend to 'win' in the traditional sense."

But in the modern sense? Which is that exactly? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.68.157.4 (talk • contribs) 07:51, 24 September 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Removal of 'deletion policy message'

production has indeed been cofirmed for this movie, thus it is no longer speculative and therefore deserves to stay —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.184.127.109 (talk) 06:47, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jackman in Postal = Bull

I removed all mention that Jackman would have been signed on for Postal. How a plain-as-day Easter Fools as this found its way here, I have no idea. (user:HannuMakinen) 20:42, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] boxing

uwe boll in bowing??? what? if i cant find sources im will remove it, please if you know some sources list it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ScotchMB (talkcontribs) 12:56, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

  • This bit is actually true. The source is on Boll's page but I'm not sure how this source-stuff works so someone else will have to do it. (user:HannuMakinen)

[edit] Poster?

Is that poster legit? If not, please remove it, swiftly! (user:HannuMakinen)

   The poster is one of the two official Posters Blue.alphabet (talk) 18:53, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Grow up!

I don't care if you don't like/hate/want to kill Boll, Stop vandalizing the fucking page! -TheHande 10:25, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

There might be quite a bit more in the coming day or two, after this. --Dreaded Walrus 10:36, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Relese?

Can anyone find out when this movie is going "to be banned from a theatre near you"? :b Spring 2007 is a bit soon so release date should be out. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.209.130.235 (talk) 15:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC).

I don't know, but i am very scared. Postal the movie. omg what an absolute crap fest this will be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.87.69.48 (talk) 18:23, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 8.5?

I think not Dr Boll, the rating for postal on IMDB is 4.4/10 when I checked just now. Still probably his highest rated film. 70.71.194.105 06:38, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I removed it. Heart of America is higher rated, with a phenomenal rating of 4.5. -- memset 12:42, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reception & box office

"It performed even worse in Austria, where it ended its box office run after two weeks with a miserable $5,165.!" I live in Austria/Carinthia and no cinema showed Postal here.. after 3 weeks of complaining Carinthias biggest cinema showed it for 3 days.. maybe this should be mentioned as reason for this —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.121.114.199 (talk) 13:09, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Delayed

Anyone have any information as to why this movie was delayed from a February 1st, 2008 release to a TBA 2008 release? Any sources? CaffeineJunkie (talk) 00:45, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

No clue, but now even the May 23rd date seems wrong. Or maybe it's just unpopular, because I can't find a theatre in America where it's being shown. Kevin (talk) 06:29, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
Finally, some news. Hmm. Only a select few theatres, I see. Jeesh, at this rate, they might as well have let the movie go direct to DVD. Then at least it might be watchable in America by now. Kevin (talk) 20:56, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dan Clarke

Is the Dan Clarke listed as the producer really the former Champ Car driver Dan Clarke? This is the first I've ever heard of him being involved in any type of movie, so I can't help but wonder if this is an error in the linking. 98.16.97.65 (talk) 05:11, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

It's an error. I've piped the link to Dan Clarke (producer) instead. —Erik (talkcontrib) - 20:51, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
