  • We Review Borderlands the Movie and its is undoubtedly in our minds the worst videogame movie ever made and one of the worst films in general. Like Damn Sony and Avi Arad, How did you sink lower than Madame Web? Dan and Marko sit down to discuss this absolutely soulless dumpster fire and if it has any redeeming qualities

    Had they casted unknowns, I would at least have respected it more.
    But kevin hart is an instant score point deduction from me. Doesn't help that the rest of the movie doesn't elicit any emotion. At least Madam Web made me laugh with its dumb script.

      Borderlands 3?
      Gameplay: Fun ✅
      Story: Bad ❌
      Humor: Absolutely Unbearable ❌
      Characters: ehhh good and bad
      Solution: turning down the voice volume to 0
      I just play the Borderlands games for the gameplay, never cared about the story, only good character Borderlands ever produced was Handsome Jack, never really cared about anyone else.

      Actually, the main story might not be the best compared to 2, but holy cannoli the DLCS redeemed it, absolutely brilliant storylines, entertaining, funny, heartfelt, BL3 might not be the best story wise in the series, but it's still decent, and the gameplay,and movement of 3, plus the DLCS makes it worth playing, IMO. 🤷🏾‍♂️💯

    1:20 Lilith had the Vladof Infinity machine pistol, but you might not have known that's what it was. It's supposed to have two barrels, but the movie version only has one barrel spliced together with a weird lug type of thing.
    3:40 Ackchyually Roland is of average height (something like 5'10"), but has a peak-human physique.
    10:35 Who throws a gun at an enemy in Borderlands unless it's Tediore?! Tediore didn't even have that gimmick in BL1. They had fast reload, and their Legendaries regen'd ammo. But since they're doing the "frappe" thing like the Silent Hill movie (where the director mishmashes details together from two or more of the games in a saga), they might as well have some BL2-style Tediore guns.
    13:35 The Rock's gotta play Brick. Dwayne "The Brick" Johnson. Jack Black would be perfect as Typhon DeLeon, but it wouldn't make sense to put that character in the first movie. Just like it wouldn't make sense to make Handsome Jack the villain in the first movie. Ryan Reynolds could play either Axton or Handsome Jack.
    17:27 Totally! Except Tediore guns are better if you toss them when there's still ammo in them. They deal barely any damage if they're empty.
    20:22 Don't wanna play that card right away. Better to save it. Besides, he wasn't in BL1. Atlas was the "big bad," and the Crimson Lance were their enforcers.
    20:34 Again, that's skipping over BL1.

    I would’ve just made the borderlands movie an action-comedy road trip with tons of gore. The cast wouldn’t have tannis, and would instead be a team with Roland as the straight man, Lilith as the more lighthearted lead Athena as a mysterious assassin who reluctantly helps Lilith and Roland again, Claptrap as a pure comic relief and annoying guy, and Krieg as a nobody melee user that doesn’t have much connection to anyone and is just there as a complete wild card.
    Tannis wouldn’t accompany the team but she would be a major character that the team goes to see. Same with Marcus and others. I would set the game on pandora but have it be set in locations from the first game’s DLC as well as a post-destroyer arid badlands with more structures built by Hyperion.
    The story would basically be about finding and killing the CEO of Atlas even if his Crimson Lance are gone. It involves a vault, which the characters are actually encouraged not to open. The characters would be fighting monsters, bandits, leftover Crimson Lance badasses, and Atlas himself. The characters would be brought together simply to be paid for this job.
    Plot twist: Hyperion was the mysterious group that hired the protagonists to take out their competition, and the heroes on Promethea (they leave pandora at or around the second act to pursue Atlas HQ) now face both Atlas and Hyperion forces fighting against each other and have to stop the conflict by opening the vault. Lilith knows a monster will be unleashed and it does end up killing everyone involved except our protagonists. They have to come together (Krieg included) and put aside their differences to defeat the monster. Monster is defeated and tons of loot is spewed everywhere.
    This movie would include shields, at least one example of every gun manufacturer, grenades and their mods, and would also feature some kind of action skill from Roland, Lilith, and Claptrap.
    The movie would also contextualize some things in Borderlands the Pre Sequel since all the main cast save for Krieg show up in that game. Athena and Claptrap work for Jack after the events in this movie, Roland and Lilith go on vacation, and Krieg kind of just leaves, except now he knows Lilith and Roland and can connect with them the same way the BL2 Vault Hunters do.
