It'll be fine for whoever hasn't played through the games but kinda seems like they hacked up the source material and shat into its dying carcass.
Kevin Hart is playing Roland who's 5'11". Lilith is 22 being played by Cate Blanchette who's in her 50's. I guess Jamie Lee Curtis fits the aesthetic of Tannis but in the trailer doesn't exhibit the same mannerisms. And then claptrap is voiced by Jack Black but has a filter on to sound more like the goober anyways. Maybe it's the 
in me but I'm really thinking this is gonna suck. Like they could've gotten Terry Crews for Roland, Brandon Rogers for claptrap(just someone a little unhinged and funny as hell) , some youngish, mildly attractive white chick for Lilith, I guess krieg is fine just needs to be slightly slimmer, I guess the tiny tina is ok too but there's not enough energy imo. And the rest of the cast might work but there's nothing about them in the trailer. And it feels like they just used the characters like dolls for a script they came up with set in that universe. Like why not expand upon the lore either before we meet them on the bus, or in between 1 and 2 similar to the presequel, or between 2 and 3 (I never played the tell tale games... 
) or just really anything else. They could've followed other wacky vault hunters on other planets and could've had them interact with the main cast of 1 2 and 3, depending on when they wanted to set the story. Idk it just seems like a lack of creativity in all departments involved in the making of the movie. I might pirate it tho just to see how bad it really is.
It's just slop but it always happens to the Vidya Game movies. 
what're y'all's take on it? Am I just 
The casting is terrible and weird and probably the result of some other negotiations and deals, but setting that aside it also just looks bad. Like visually it looks like dogshit. Bad cinematography, bad choreography, bad effects. It looks like if Uwe Boll was given a bigger budget and modern CGI.
It doesn't even have like shitty B-movie charm, it looks like some kind of weird make work project for some big actors who don't have anything else on their plates right now where they're spending too much and playing it too straight for it to have some charming schlock to it.
Borderlands should only be adapted as some kind of low-budget, straight-to-cable grindhouse series with nobodies, something like Blood Drive.
Yep this was kinda my thoughts on it. Should've been mad max esque with a bunch of talented nobodies that throw in a few quips here and there, with the most famous of them being the voice actors for echo logs, echo net w.e. and or maybe an A list for cameos, ala Deadpool style. That is borderlands though huh... Mad max, Deadpool, and a smidge of Halo, blended until smooth
