    3:20 Cate Blanchett accepted the role because originally the script was written by Craig Mazin (Chernobyl and the last of us series), but when Eli Roth came to direct, he began to rewrite the script to the point that Craig Mazin didn't want his name appeared in the credits of the film.

      I don't really see how they nailed the aesthetic considering the visual art style of the game is out of a comic book with very strong outlines on everything. This comical style is the entire reason characters and stories could be so crazy and out-of-pocket. It indicated to the player that this game was highly fictional and it wasn't taking itself seriously (in certain ways). Other than that I completely agree with you.

    The Joel Coen/Cohen type of misunderstanding would not be without precedence. Burt Reynolds agreed to be the lead in a spaghetti westen called Navajo Joe, because Clint Eastwood was praising this director called Sergio to him. He found out pretty much on set that the director isn't the praised Sergio Leone, but Sergio Corbucci (who wasn't a bad director at all, but wasn't Sergio Leone either).

Ensemble cast movies have the challenge of introducing each character and making the audience fall in love with them within 2 hours.

      I think the Garfield job just paid well and was relatively easy, being a voice role. It's similar to how Ghostbusters 2016 was basically a cameo where he sat down most of the time, and Quantumania paid him Disney money for a pretty minor role.

The second movie however, though corny with some of the human characters, is the one they wanted to make, being more faithful to the game’s characters and has heart. I’d argue 2 is genuinely a good time.

    Favorite VG-to-movie adaptation might be Mortal Kombat, it's campy fun and still largely holds up as a goofy 90s throwback flick, runner up is DOA, which is so absurd it falls into so-bad-it's good, but is also shooting for a silliness that it kind of achieves so, no hate; it did what it set out to do. Worst VG movie is probably still Double Dragon, the one from 1994; with MK: Annihilation following just behind it.

    Casting Kevin Hart as a character that was 50% the size of a man called 'brick'... I don't care about size accuracy that much but how does the poster child for 'short and angry about it' play such a character??

Love the rating though, and love shows like this where I can safely learn about these failures without having to witness them myself.

They changed so much of the source material that it shouldn't have even been called borderlands...
