Tannis is the awkward cute nerd girl in the games, but in this movie is the ugly old hag Jammie Lee Curtis.

Fuck pedowood.

I'm sick of this bitch being in everything. She's old and she looks like an alien, stop giving her roles.

Roland is a generic nigger holding a gun that doesn't fit any manufacturer.

I'm 99% sure its a nerf gun. I remember when people made cool paintjobs for nerf guns based on BL2.

I'm even more sure that Lilith is either a tranny or the most washed up disgusting silicon based whore I have ever seen. She's one of the prettier characters in videogames in her own weird way, weird neck and all. This bitch straight up doesn't resemble her in any way.
Roland doesn't look or sound the part either. Ignoring the fact the in-game Roland is clean shaven, for a black guy he's handsome and has well defined cheeks, he doesn't look like your average soft faced bald negro. If the actor for Tyrus from Breaking Bad wasn't a fossil he would've been my first choice for that role.
Tina is a spic, Krieg is okay, Marcus looks pretty good, none of the weapons in the movie are based on anything Borderlands related, the comedy is bad, and I have no clue why Tina, Krieg, and Claptrap are protagonists here. They're already badly written in the games, they shouldn't be given more than a few scenes in a movie. The plot seems to be based on BL1 but Krieg wasn't there for that game, so what gives?

Moxxi confirmed

This is also based on her BL3 model. Also Moxxi doesn't look like a trashy porn whore, she looks like your average OnlyFans model, just caked in makeup. There's cosplayers who do a much better job looking like her than whoever this is.

Just feels like they got the character in because he was memed on a lot.

I feel like it's "psycho = borderlands mascot" (see: the skin in Fortnite for the Borderlands franchise was, out of any possible character, just a random generic psycho) so they wanted a psycho hero guy so it makes sense to the people that know Borderlands (and have never played it) just for psychos being used in marketing.
 
Kicks off with a piss drinking fetish and ends with... enjoying when people watch you shit? Does that even have a name?
Anyway, that's how you know Randy was involved this and that he didn't even play his own fucking games. Gonna wait until this trash is on Solarmovie.

I'm not all that familiar with Borderlands, but this movie should have come out 10 years ago when the series was relevant in the pop culture subconscious. This just seems like a blatant low quality cash grab by Randy Bitchford after a string of numerous failures on Gearbox's end since Aliens: Colonial Marines.

Honestly, thanks to this horrible miscast I couldn't even tell that Curtis is supposed to be Tannis. I knew about the movie but didn't care about it (I'm fan of Borderlands but BL3 happened and I had no high hopes for this movie) so when I noticed the movie poster I was like: "Who the fuck is this old woman??? Is this a new character?" and then notice she's supposed to be Tannis.

Seriously, why are Lilith and Tannis twice their age?! All characters look nothing like their counterparts but Lilith and Tannis are the biggest offenders imo.

BL3 was worse.

At least the movie will be over in ~2 hours.

I always want to remind people that BL3 has an amazing mod that removes all dialogue and story, just skips right past it all.

When has a mod ever done that before? Sure, you add stuff in, or tinker with gun stats or make tits massive, but when did a game get a mod that removes all the story and voice work.

That's how fucking bad BL3 story was received, one of the top must have mods removes it entirely.

*facepalming hard with both hands*

What the fuck did I just watch?

Where do I start? Because the trailer isnt that long and yet it still has so much wrong.

The casting is awful. The selection of characters is all over the place. Jamie Lee fucking Curtis as Tannis?

From the trailer you can already tell what kind of movie its going to be, in the worst way possible. It seems inspired by The Rock Jumanji movies but, again, in the worst way possible. None of the characters behave how they should. No Mordecai and Brick? I hate Jack Black as Claptrap already.

And the humor. God. Say whatever you want about Borderlands 1,2 and Pre-sequel having immature humor. Some of it is dated by today standards. But you cannot in good faith (and sanity) tell me that the humor in this comes anywhere close in quality to the WORST jokes of these three games. Not even Borderlands 3 was this bad, holy shit.

And the worst part? We all know they will dare to try to setup yours truly next movie, as if this garbage is ever getting a sequel, you can tell this is a project that was barely able to come out with all of its development Hell so a sequel is already out of the plans I'd hope.


Mario was only able to come out a winner because Im very fucking sure they had Nintendo breathing on Illumination's neck at every creative decision.


Maybe Blanchett but I wouldnt go that far with Curtis.

Madam Web drops and the internet just won't stop copy and pasting the same lame comment.
Borderlands the movie drops, without Brick or Mordecai and the comments is just people desperately trying to cope with a handful of people wondering why would they make Krieg and Teenage Tina critical to the film.

Fuck Madam Web, this is the real film atrocity. Fucking Jamie Lee and Blanchett as a teenager and a 30 year old, respectively. And let me say this now.
I fucking love Blanchette, but not this time.

Was this ever made easier to install? Last time I checked I gave up after reading the instructions and just uninstalled the game instead.
 
I just saw the movie trailer. It's sad that they aged up and miscast so many characters, because besides that, I think it looks cool. Like the graphics and the world actually do look like Borderlands without being ugly.

But yeah, the casting makes no sense. Roland is a tall, buff, and serious guy. Kevin Hart is funny and very short. Could they really not find another tall and buff black actor?

I didn't even know Jamie Lee Curtis was supposed to be Tannis until I read other people mentioning it, wtf. I just really don't understand why they aged up the characters so much?? And don't even get me started on Claptrap, I don't get why they didn't hire the original voice actor?

I'll probably watch it just for curiosity sake but like most of you my expectations are very low. I hope they don't bring in Handsome Jack and butcher that character.

Didn't he get utterly shitcanned for some drama at Gearbox, like he wanted a raise and Randy tossed him out? It's been so long I can't remember the details. I guess if there's still some grudge they might not want him involved with the movie project. Or it's just more for advertising, getting butts in seats, given it's Jack Black and all.

Hell even Dwayne Johnson would play a decent Roland I think.

This is shaping up to be a disappointment. I know nothing about BL3 and I want to keep it that way, but I know everything about how much of a fucking faggot Randy Bitchfuck is and this has his greasy fingerprints smeared all over it.

Also, how the fuck did they convince Blanchett and Curtis to be in this mess? They are respected actresses.

I don't feel sorry for Jamie Lee Curtis, she is overrated. As for Cate Blanchett, yes she deserved way way better, and I'm curious how large that paycheck of her was

Yeah but I meant humor wise, B3's was lame as fuck but this movie is already shaping up to be somehow even worse

BL3 is still worse because it tried to be "very serious" which was even more tone deaf and ill-advised. The only time I laughed at BL3 was the ending sequence and credits (with licensed music).

I don't feel bad for Jamie Lee Curtis because I suspect that she doesn't feel bad for herself. I'd wager it's something she's doing for fun and/or because her "daughter" likes Borderlands (much like the great Raul Julia winding up in the Street Fighter movie). Blanchett probably is also having fun - as terrible as Thor : Ragnarok was, she looked like she was having the time of her life in it.

Eh I think the commander lilith DLC for BL2 was an advance warning with how cringe and annoying they made the tales characters. It was initially free for all BL2 owners and now it costs money.

Glad i dodged a bullet on that one even though i got BL3 for free on epic a few years later. Never got around to playing it.

He's also gay, if you remember the side quest where you find the remains of his giant faggot boyfriend. So he's got to be in it for rEpReSenTaTioN.

>if you remember
There's an entire DLC for 3 focused on his gay wedding (with the head of Jakobs, because of course hurhur aren't we wacky, zany, progressive and subverting expectations by making the manly oldschool gun manufacturer CEO a fucking homo) and your goal is to kill a straight couple who is struggling to stay together because the husband was possessed by some dead ancient evil. It ends with a cutscene of a long, deep, sloppy gay kiss that you CANNOT SKIP. Literally. Buttons do not work during it. All you can do is alt tab and wait for it to end.
