In case you're wondering how bad it is, Polygon likes it: https://archive.is/VJ6pw
There is zero chance a Borderlands movie will be good. Doesn't matter who's in it or who makes it.
Borderlands is an arcade shooter with the barest plot possible, that doesn't translate to a movie.
That could have been fine with decent writers in another time, I think.
I too remember enjoying the Doom movie.
Eli Roth directing. Jack Black as Claptrap. Kevin Hart is in it. Zero chance it's good.
Why not just get the original VA for claptrap? He is literally a robot so looks arent a problem.
BL3 is one of the shiniest examples of "missed opportunities: the plot", i think game is unplayable unless you actively ignore its "plot"
and that ending, dear lord
One of my friends used to work at Gearbox and I remember years ago when he discussed the potential plot some of the guys in the office had mapped out for what Borderlands 3 could look like back when it wasn't even on the roadmap yet, and it sounded phenomenal. Then BL3 came out and...well we all saw what happened. Just a fucking dumpster fire to follow up two really solid games. What a gut punch.
"hmm yes i'll give control of Sanctuary to an obnoxious teenage girl that got my best friend killed, blamed everybody but herself for it, magically inherited her siren powers and is a clueless child. Tannis? Moxxy? Ellie? who are these people, Ava would totally do better than them"
fucking Tiny Tina would've been a better choice, and she's crazier than most psychos
Didn't they arbitrarily put some BL3 stuff into BL2 or something? I just st remember some tech CEO looking wanker whining about some bullshit or other
I wish. The borderlands games (after 1) have extensive, obnoxious, intrusive plots that are gay, woke, and stupid. I would love a copy-paste series without all of the awful characters, dialogue, and stories.
The plot may be intrusive, but it's still about as deep as a puddle.
