i think many games could work as single movies, mgs 1, 2 and 3 would be perfect as movies, so would dmc 1,3,4 and 5. there are alot of fluff in games that are not required for a movie. and can easily be trimmed out without any loss. you could make a megaman movie, for example, and just have 4 robot masters, for example, or bioshock, and cut out 50-75% of the game, and still deliver an amazing movie. same with the forest. of course, that's not the case for many other games, most final fantasy would work as a 2-3 movie series, but have too many parts to work as a single movie, for example.
Theres no reason to make a movie out of a video game if it already had lots of cutscenes to tell the stories. But it still boils down to talent and ideas. Mario Bros. redeemed itself with a movie that Miyamoto approved and guided.
@@azariahgaming3254 many games would work better as a movie, and many would work better as a series. something like pokemon literaly has a series. meanwhile, most metal gear games are short enough that they would work better as a movie instead. something like overwatch would be better as a series, same with most final fantasy. persona is another game that has animes based on it, baldur's gate could work as a series. same with mass effect. every front mission would work better as a series as well. its all about how long the game story is. and which type of game.

A lot of that time is spent just exploring, dying multiple times, completing random task, doing side quest, crafting, traveling, etc, a bunch of things that wouldn't even be in a movie or series. With a series, you're just able to dive deeper into backstory, characters, world building, etc, like in TLOU they were able to do entire episodes on Bill & Frank, & Riley & Ellie, which aren't really necessary. Something that typically can't be adapted into movies would be, Anime. There's too much to condense into a 2hr film.

Saw it tonight with my wife and I loved it. A hell of a lot better than Madame Web or Morbius. BUT, Borderlands is my favorite franchise on PlayStation, so I'm a bit biased...take that for what it's worth. lol I get where people come off saying it's a bad movie, but I had a blast watching it.
I saw it. As a patron that's never played Borderlands..I think it was fine. Was it great? No. Was it entertaining...yeah. Was it funny? A little bit. It's a good way to burn two hours but I wouldn't pay to see it again but I'd watch it again once it starts streaming.
Your review sounds like someone who ate a 30 dollar steak at a restaurant and is praising it because the steak wasn't too bad after you dunked a lot of sauce on it and it wasn't delivered to you undercooked
I just watched and I honestly think if you have been a borderlands game player then you will get a little more out of it and not totally hate it. I agree with John, it's not the worst film ever.
Same, moments I thought were good, like ClapTrap I thought shined in the movie but it’s still a bad movie. Sucks because I am a huge fan of the video game(borderlands 2 is my all time favorite video game) I was really hoping to be able to go into multiple movie versions of this world. Maybe they try again down the road or maybe a show version.
I really wish this Sups logo felt like Sups. Feels like a multiverse other superman or something else. I wish it didn't feel that way, but just doesn't bring the vibes of superman. Least not yet.
I haven't played any Borderlands, but if it's reviewed *this* badly, I can only assume that it has absolutely nothing in common with the source material, which, after the Super Mario Bros. Movie, which was basically a greatest hits of everyones childhood who grew up in the late 80's/early 90's, you would think the studios would know not to mess with the source material, but I guess they never will.
As a borderlands fan the only thing I was worried about was that despite being inaccurate this movie would somehow be good. Now I can tell everyone to play the games instead (borderlands 2 is a masterpiece)
You are being kind. There is nothing wrong with that. I commend you for not being nasty and ripping the film apart. I have not seen it. I will not see it. In fact, I am going to see Deadpool and Wolverine this weekend, for the 3rd time.
I haven't seen the movie yet. I would've loved to see Amazon Prime do the show as a Series like Fallout because Fallout was awesome. I hate to see such a great game franchise get this treatment
Bravo!! For the actors....take the money and run. If a Studio is vapid enough to pay you to be in a commercial flop...by all means....hit your marks,say your lines and cash that check. Why Hollywood just doesn't pay into a slush fund and pay for Cancer cure or the housing issue. Because it is obvious...the System has more money than brains. I'm still going to see the movie..because I like the stars.
I was really bored today so I was considering going to watch this movie today but I’ve seen way too many bad reviews that I thought I’ll skip this one. I’m not gonna make my boring day even worst by seeing this
The movie was damned from the start. It came out almost a decade after the hype, for the franchise died out. It also had the worst miscasting I’ve seen a movie adaptation to have. But most of all, it was PG-13.
Thought it wasn’t bad, but certainly wasn’t great as a fan of the video games. It really wasn’t that accurate but there were some enjoyable moments, but overall not one that I’m raving about.
Well i feel like this wasnt roth movie idea. The studios probably was looking for a director and wanted roth to make it. Like did he really have dreams of making a borderlands movie or was he pressured into making it? Was he a big fan of the game and thats why he made it?
4 people walked out of my screening, and I wanted to walk out but was with a friend who was a fan of the games and wanted to see it through. To me, it is the worst film I’ve seen in years. I was ready to walk out 10 minutes in. They start and often have long-monologues with the worst dialogue to explain everything. I did not care for any of the characters, and therefor none of the action either. I was like “please let the bad guys win and end this movie now!”. Save yourselves, it’s not even fun as a bad movie 😂
I haven't seen this apparently diabolical film lol. However when I watch the trailer, for some reason it comes across as a TV definitely a film. Is that just me or something else
Saw it last night and hated it. I've seen 43 films in 2024 so far and this is easily in the top three worst films I've seen so far this year. The only two films that beat it are 'Drive-Away Dolls' and 'Miller's Girl'.
You should have went to see It Ends With Us. Just got out of it a while ago and it’s pretty good.I’m sure it’s a lot better story than that pointless action flick.

If there was a Beau DeMayo-like director with an X-Men 97-like team doing this film, it would’ve been more faithful to the game’s mantra.
Lol even if it’s faithful it would be mid those games aren’t all that
Dang, it must be bad if John says so. He usually gives movies a lot of leeway. Such a waste of a great game franchise.
Even when it bad he will give it some kind of positive parts but this film just screams terrible
@EpicBerserker It's not terrible , just mediocre and it's obvious people are only turned off because of the casting age .

all the best scenes are in the trailer unfortunately
All the hotties replaced with octogenarians?
I always say video games should be made into TV Shows. There’s no way you can executed it in 2 hrs or whatever
i think many games could work as single movies, mgs 1, 2 and 3 would be perfect as movies, so would dmc 1,3,4 and 5. there are alot of fluff in games that are not required for a movie. and can easily be trimmed out without any loss. you could make a megaman movie, for example, and just have 4 robot masters, for example, or bioshock, and cut out 50-75% of the game, and still deliver an amazing movie.
same with the forest.
of course, that's not the case for many other games, most final fantasy would work as a 2-3 movie series, but have too many parts to work as a single movie, for example.
Theres no reason to make a movie out of a video game if it already had lots of cutscenes to tell the stories.
But it still boils down to talent and ideas. Mario Bros. redeemed itself with a movie that Miyamoto approved and guided.

As films?

something like pokemon literaly has a series.

persona is another game that has animes based on it,
baldur's gate could work as a series. same with mass effect.

"There were moments that i grinned" is crazy 🤣

“it has the building blocks for a half decent story”
