Their past endeavours shouldn't be factored into any review, even if their track record has always been rather unsatisfactory. Maybe he went for pure shock value in the teaser to generate word-of-mouth (gauging the responses in this thread, it appears to be working), but what if the final product was actually semi-respectable?

Well said. I was certainly a bit taken back by the trailer. I am guessing you are very much correct in the 'shock value' aspect of the teaser, and his intention. If the final product was semi-respectable, good for him I guess? I am not sure I would really ever want to sit through any other Boll film at this point, especially one like this teaser depicts.
