Fun fact: Paul W.S Anderson, the director of Mortal Kombat and Resident Evil, actually put the W.S abbreviation of his name (stands for William Scott) in it because he was constantly mixed up with Paul Thomas Anderson, the director of this movie (and Punch Drunk Love and Boogie Nights, among others). It also has to do with Writers Guild of America, where Paul Thomas Anderson is registered, hence there can't be two writers registered with the same name (Paul Anderson).

It was after Event Horizon that Paul Anderson started to credit himself as W.S to avoid any confusion with his fellow filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson. But going after this thread, it doesn't seem to work very well 😅

Chase Infiniti absolutely sucked in Presumed Innocent, her only role, so makes sense she'd get cast in a major film next.

Say what you want about W.S. Anderson, but he is consistent with delivering a coherent watchable film and he CRUSHES his budgets, you see every damned red cent on screen. I wish he was more prolific. He ought to be churning out marvel blade, defenders level stuff every year.
 
There's something deeply revolting about this image.

It's the polar opposite of getting me wanting to see this movie.
I agree; some of the director's work was quite good in the past, but "isn't this pregnant woman badass, as she lets the kickback of a machine gun rapidly jar the baby in her late-term womb" is gross and fetishistic of the worst parts of humanity, doubly so when trying to imagine them as revolutionaries in a race fantasy. I'm sure the mechanics of the film will be good, but I'm old enough to instantly recognize the work of men whose directorial gaze is beyond the pale. Just to be sure I alienate everyone by the way, I have always had the same reaction to Tarantino, he disgusts me--and I mean his very soul, I would never let him near a family.
