Yep, this should have been a career starter for the main cast and should have propelled them all into most favored status with the gaming community as a cult hit. Instead, we get old and diverse.

While I'm not sure they'd turn it down, how many kids are doing the move to Hollywood and wait on tables thing anymore? Kids want to be in YouTube and Twitch these days.

Obviously just a cash grab instead of legitimately trying to start a franchise.

I am guessing this is one of those movies they make to lose money to shift them into a different tax bracket, or some shit like that, where the loss on the movie ends up being covered by the accounting and tax shenanigans.

Well, he would have been a better Roland, but it's a low bar, so....

To be fair none of the main cast had their race or gender swapped. But Roland also wasn't a midget nor was anyone old.

The big problem is if it did do well most of them won't be alive or in any shape to turn it into a trilogy.

They tried, no doubt. They had to settle for jack black.

The Axel Braun version of this is probably better cast and likely a better film.

I love Borderlands 1 and 2 but I’m so unexcited about this my penis is doing an impersonation of a snail going back into its shell.

It's definitely a tax loophole at work in the budget. Eli Roth is the hatchet man they hired to spend a lot of money the way they wanted to write a big loss.

Nobody gave that f4ggot an honest 100m-130m budget with good intentions. He's a life long loser like Uwe Boll.

Whoever decided on this cast should never work again. I think Uwe Boll would've done a better job.

That's Dr.Boll, asshole! But yes I agree that he would have probably made a much more entertaining film. The man's was cinematic genius.
I'm being serious about that. It's not a lot of directors out there that can make just crappy movies that are so entertaining and knocking out of the park every time, but that brilliant German man knows the trick, and has the capability.
