Entirely fairly, since I'm the girl who flew across the Atlantic to be in Uwe Boll's Postal, I've been inundated with messages from friends alerting me to this story today. Seems an item's popped up on eBay: a role in Far Cry.

The eBay listing is in German, so I plugged it into Babelfish (as you do) and got this:

Become statist with a large-scale film project In co-operation with the BOLL corporation we offer the unique opportunity the turning work to that about 40 million US dollar expensive motion picture film to you FAR CRY in Vancouver (Canada) to accompany. They cannot only see with your own eyes like a large motion picture film are made, but also many well-known actors to meet and in addition also still as a statist participate!

- mental or physically obstructed humans cannot participate unfortunately in the auction. The film set is not obstruct fair.

The price applies per person!

Right. So, basically, they want someone to go out to Vancouver and be an extra, but they don't want to pay for extras. I'm not entirely sure this is above board (don't they have unions for this sort of thing?).
