I love the games (the Telltale games were peak), and I actually like like most of the individual members of the cast (aside from Kevin Hart, dude just is plainly unfunny to me), and I think Eli Roth can do a decent job behind the camera. However I know most certainly this will be a product/marketing platform in the shape of a movie.

Is the cinema landscape this bleak these days? Movie magic is being wasted on this slop. Goddamn.

Ahh yes the best part of borderlands is the story, writing and cutscenes

To be fair-ish, I think certain parts of the Borderlands story, writing, and worldbuilding can be pretty solid, when it isn't trying to be stupid.

Being totally honest however, even within the same game the writing can be anywhere to "good-ish sci-fi" to "juvenile gamer. Hell sometimes in the same questline it can oscillate between good and gamer.

Ok is the film at least retaining the original iconic cell shaded animation? Nope it’s live action.

BRO! I THOUGHT THE SAME THING! I lived in a cave for awhile and I heard they were doing a Borderlands movie. For the longest time I thought it was going to be like one of those by the numbers "Illumination" style animated films, when I heard the casting I thought they were gonna the voices. Nope. I was so wrong and dumb.
