    Is Borderlands the godfather now? Who cares? Borderlands story is trash, it’s characters are one dimensional. This is like when people complained that they’d mess up twisted metal, as if we were speaking about an adaptation of the old man and the sea. It’s Borderlands, and if the movie is a solid 7, it’s as good as the game.

      I don’t think anyone here is saying the movie will be bad for not getting the Borderlands story right. I think they’re saying it looks bad because it looks like a passionless by the numbers cash grab banking on nerd pandering and brand recognition. Especially because this was the type of game that never needed to be made into a movie. I mean, the trailer has Kevin Hart yelling stuff and ends with a diarrhea joke. Nuff said.
