to be fair, claptrap is programmed to always sound happy and chipper even when miserable. Still he never was hating all humans, hell he sees you as a friend.... no matter how far from reality that may be. His hatred was always reserved for handsome jack.
Remember folks, Randy Pitchford focused a lot of time into this and was very proud of it. That should tell you everything you need to know about Gearbox right now.
Huh, Claptrap doesnt hate humans in the games. It's he opposite. He DESPERATELY WANTS FRIENDS but everyone finds him is annoying and pathetic. He had the players built him a girlfriend which left him immediately. To quote Marcus, "NO REFUNDS!"
Everyone finding him annoying only started in BL2, in BL1 you go out of your way to fix the broken ones you find and even Angel refers to the as the funny little robot.
@@MachineMan-mj4gj Gamers are always so annoyed at everything apparently, I remember being confused as to why people thought Navi for Ocarina of Time was Annoying way back when. It sucks that Gearbox appeased those people and made Claptrap's life worse off. I ALWAYS give him his well deserved high fives in BL2.
They made a Borderlands movie about the characters no one really cares for and they didn't even make the characters faithful to the games. You have a movie premise where you could have had a John Wick with a revolving door selection of goofy guns killing psychos, robots and aliens and throw that all out for a worse version of a Telltale Games style adaptation.
I decided to give this show a miss when characters which are supposed to be younger than me are being portrayed by washed up actors old enough to be my Parents, combined with the typical modern audience propaganda in the trailers.
Interesting so I’m a bot because I slightly messed up on the way I was typing. I’m sorry I was busy this morning And typed slightly incorrect what I meant to say was I agree with the choices being bad but this wasn’t a bad movie. It wasn’t great either in fact if all honesty, Tina wasn’t that bad. Krieg was pretty good. Clap trap was OK. Tanis wasn’t good as far as Cate Blanchett and Kevin Hart if they had been different vault hunters like ones that had just been randomly created I think it actually would’ve been a better story but yes, I’m so sorry that I accidentally typed my sentence slightly wrong. The problem is there are so many beta cuckolds with zero testosterone in them that makes them hate this movie and the fact that there are people that love the game so much they wanted to hate this movie but ended up liking it a little bit, but they’re still so pissed off that they didn’t hate it as much as they wanted to that they gotta give it negative reviews so Yes, if you are a low testosterone beta cuckold, you probably will not like this movie So. Judging by your sentence ima assume. You’re a beta cuckold with low testosterone.
For Silent Hill remake, are you talking about Shattered Memories that came out half a decade ago, or the Silent Hill 2 remake on the horizon? Either way, your point is justified, Shattered Memories was Silent Hill in name only (it did have an interesting idea of having the game try to psychoanalyze the player, but beyond that it was bland and forgettable) and the SH2 remake is shaping up to be another failure.
You're lucky I recently watched some newer horror movies and realized the problem with them. The characters have no personality, there's no life to the characters so you give zero fucks about who lives and who dies.
Even in the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, there is no end to the woke. They will destroy our cultures over and over until there's nothing left for anyone but a mileu of idiotic notions. Dragging and destroying our heroes so we have none to emulate. Destroying our stories of good vs evil, so we lose our way to morality and decency. Make no mistake, it's a concerted effort on every front for a very real, very tangible reason.
Why is Lilith a grandma? Why is Tina a rich kid? Why did they choose that god awful music for the trailer when Borderlands literally debuted with Cage the Elephant? The music doesn’t suit the vibe at all. It should be alt rock.
@@anonymoustroll2432 I just can’t understand this stuff. I’ve never met a woman who doesn’t appreciate attractive women/people in general. I’m fat and ugly and old. If I wanted to look at ugly people id look in the mirror. I don’t understand this need people apparently have to self insert and “identify”.
@@rickybobby5153 Honestly, it's really simple. Women, in general, objectify themselves. They treat themselves as products - products consisting of, as Patrice O'Neal once said, a series of holes. When you have a particularly unappealing product, as these hideous and hate-filled women in the "entertainment" industry, then the only way to compete is to disparage the competition. Either you make it unpalatable for relationships by convincing it to do OF work, or you do as these cretins do: portray beautiful women as ugly in an attempt to convince the public that there are no beautiful women. This, presumably, would raise the value of their "products" or at the very least devalue the rest until they're close to an even playing field.
i'd love to say 'let's hope he pirated it'. because if i intended to make a review of something of dubious quality, i'd take it off pirate bay with no regrets :3
Given the cast looked like they were wheeled out of an old folks home, you didn't even have the original VA for CLAP-TRAP, you got Kevin Heart instead of Terry Cruise or some other guy that actually looks and sounds like Roland (personally I would have found Bobby Lashley and pitched it to him); it's like they did everything to try and fail. Mission accomplished, I guess.
Well, there was some controversy surrounding CLAP-TRAP's original voice actor, had a falling out with Gearbox during the production of Borderlands 3. Randy is responsible and Randy should of faced criminal charges for what he did.
@@RichardPhillips1066 The franchise failed almost a decade ago and hasn't been popular since a decade ago. I think I've only ever finished Borderlands and I bought Borderlands 2 to play with my friend, played it for a week and then never touched it again.
Casting Cate Blanchett as Handsome Jack was really something else. But bless her, she really threw herself into it, what with having a rubber face stretched and stapled to her skull for real.
@@woodwyrm No, not really. It's a joke on the fact that Blanchett used to be beautiful but destroyed herself through plastic surgery and now looks more fake than Handsome Jack's mask.
also my hopes were pretty much in the bin when tough, boulder shouldered no nonsense military man roland was set to be played by fucking kevin heart, if that doesnt scream miss cast to you then i dont know what does
Wh- Okay. Roland might've been a dull character (and an arsehole going off the Pre-Sequel, though nowhere near to Lilith's extent, she's just _vile),_ but having this stoic, capable commando portrayed by the short screamy guy? I beg your pardon, was the director snorting crystal meth for a week straight before making that decision?
People were asking for a Borderlands 1 or 2 level of humor (preferably 1 in a movie, 2 is already way too much), instead they went with Borderlands 3 levels of writing when absolutly everybody hated BL3 jokes and dialogues.
I DID NOT LIKE the villains in "3". Maybe I'm a little biased, because I got the privilege of getting the smug, arrogant, petulant conniving, and funny Handsome Jack as a villain. The Twins were just flavorless, Gen-Z fillers, if you ask me.
Back when Borderlands 2 came out it was my favorite game of all time. The story was really good, the gameplay was fun and the whole loot thing was awesome. Since then, I’ve watched professionals systematically take everything I loved and turn it to sadness.
Hi Kibs! Edit: I asked ChatGPT (GPT 4o) to write a rough outline for a Borderland's movie and it delivered this: **Title:** *Borderlands: The Vault Hunter's Gambit* ### **Logline:** In the distant, lawless world of Pandora, a group of misfit mercenaries known as Vault Hunters race against time, corporate warlords, and each other to uncover the secrets of a legendary alien Vault that promises unimaginable power. ### **Act 1: Introduction to Pandora** - **Opening Scene:** - The movie begins with a high-octane chase scene through the wastelands of Pandora, showcasing the brutal environment and chaotic inhabitants. A mysterious figure (later revealed to be a Vault Hunter) barely escapes with their life. - **Backstory & Setup:** - A voiceover (Claptrap, providing comic relief) introduces the world of Pandora, a lawless frontier planet. The legend of the Vault is established-a mythical alien structure rumored to contain vast treasures and power, hidden for millennia. - **Introduction to the Vault Hunters:** - **Protagonists:** - *Roland* - A former soldier turned mercenary, driven by a personal vendetta. - *Lilith* - A Siren with mysterious, powerful abilities, seeking to understand her past. - *Mordecai* - A sharpshooter with a pet bird named Bloodwing, hunting for glory. - *Brick* - A massive, hulking brawler who loves nothing more than smashing things. - Each Vault Hunter has their own reason for seeking the Vault, and their paths converge as they arrive at a town called Sanctuary, a safe haven for those who defy the corporations controlling Pandora. - **Antagonist Introduction:** - *Handsome Jack* - The charming yet sociopathic CEO of Hyperion Corporation, obsessed with finding and controlling the Vault to cement his rule over Pandora. ### **Act 2: The Quest Begins** - **Assembling the Team:** - The Vault Hunters reluctantly team up after discovering they share a common goal: to find the Vault before Handsome Jack does. Each character’s strengths are highlighted as they work together, despite their differences and mutual distrust. - **The Journey Across Pandora:** - The team embarks on a journey across Pandora, facing off against bandits, wild alien creatures, and rival mercenaries. Along the way, they gather clues about the Vault’s location from ancient Eridian ruins and eccentric NPCs like *Tannis*, a quirky scientist obsessed with the Vault. - **Character Development:** - Interpersonal conflicts arise, especially between the disciplined Roland and the chaotic Brick, but they gradually learn to trust each other. Lilith’s powers grow stronger and more unpredictable, creating tension within the group. - **The Corporate Threat:** - Handsome Jack sends waves of Hyperion soldiers and robotic enforcers to stop the Vault Hunters. A key battle takes place at a Hyperion facility, where the team narrowly escapes but not without sustaining losses. ### **Act 3: Race to the Vault** - **The Final Stretch:** - The Vault Hunters discover the Vault’s location deep within Pandora’s most treacherous region. However, Jack’s forces are hot on their heels. The team is forced to navigate dangerous terrain and solve ancient puzzles to reach the Vault. - **The Climax:** - The Vault Hunters arrive at the Vault’s entrance just as Handsome Jack does. A massive, chaotic battle ensues, with both sides fighting not only each other but also the Vault’s guardians-giant alien constructs. - **Vault Reveal:** - The Vault is finally opened, revealing not just treasure but a powerful, otherworldly entity (a precursor to the “Warrior” from Borderlands 2) that could either destroy or save Pandora. Handsome Jack attempts to control the entity, leading to a final showdown between him and the Vault Hunters. - **Resolution:** - The Vault Hunters manage to defeat the entity and Jack, but at great personal cost. The Vault collapses, seemingly destroyed. The survivors are left to ponder the true nature of the Vault and the cost of their quest. ### **Epilogue:** - **Setting Up Future Adventures:** - The movie ends with a tease of new adventures: a mysterious signal is detected from another Vault on a different planet, hinting at a sequel. The Vault Hunters, now bonded by their experiences, decide to continue their journey together, while the remnants of Hyperion retreat to plot their revenge. - **Post-Credits Scene:** - A lone figure (possibly *Tiny Tina* or *Zero*), in the shadows, examines a piece of Eridian technology, grinning as they make a cryptic remark about the next Vault.
Legit better than something they dumped thousands of people and millions of dollars into. Then you still choose washed up actors and bad poop/pee jokes as Hollywood. Amazing.
Big Bang Theory is an insult to geek and nerd culture. It's people laughing at you, not with you. They represent modern day social justice activists who have invaded entertainment and ruined it.
I'm really getting tired of watching no talent Hollywood hacks ruin existing IPs in search of the "modern audience". That audience doesn't exist. If that audience was interested in Borderlands or Star Wars or Lord of the Rings, then they would have been consuming content related to them all along... but they aren't. I just don't get this mentality of taking an existing franchise, then doing everything to spite the fans, then being surprised that it's a failure. It's the literal definition of insanity.
Your presumption that they're seeking success is flawed. These studios are still led by executives who remember when movies were good, and the formula to make those good movies. Most of the writers and directors behind those good movies are still alive, just pushed out of the industry. These people are not trying to make money: they know how to do it, they don't want to. They can recoup their losses, primarily through fraud, or through hedge funds (which are typically just fraud with extra steps). It's all about destroying what people love.
@@WhiteManOnCampus I really can't argue with that. It makes too much sense to not be true. It really does feel like there's an active movement to destroy anything that might seem even vaguely "nerdy". Then when we get upset, we're gaslit and accused of being "bigots" or "(insert thing here) phobes".
Just remember not to fall into the trap of setting the bar SO low that something as garbage as Deadpool 3 gets praised as "good" when it's a disaster. The first thing these companies are going to do when they want to try to *actually* make money off us again is tank the quality of these products so they can raise it ever so *SLIGHTLY* and pretend like they made a masterpiece for us to gush all over. If it's bad, it's *bad.* A standard is a *standard.* NEVER lower them. If these companies want credit for their efforts, they have to *earn* it. Don't give them an inch.
@DevilMan88 ruclips.net/video/1hN6N7CCh_w/видео.htmlsi=Ml_XuxEjlFk6K4qz *Yes,* it *was.* If you *disagree* with that *factually correct* statement then your *opinion* is demonstrably *wrong.* Try again.
@@Lord_NumptyExactly correct. This was a series that peaked somewhere in the first game's DLC and has been steadily marching downhill for the rest of time. What Arch watched was just an accurate translation of the last few boderlands game's "jokes" to the big screen.
This is like watching a Uwe Boll movie, except worse and with a higher budget. And not getting a write-off from the german government either for the money spent on it. I just don't get it, is this money laundering or there are people just enjoying burning their money?
At least Boll is up front about his movies being schlocky tax write-offs, and you know what you're getting when you watch a Boll film. This is something else completely.
@@RambleOn07 It was probably the most accurate-to-source videogame movie ever made. Great if you're into that sort of humour and definitely the movie Running With Scissors wanted.
I rather watch Boll's movies than 99.9% of modern AAA Hollywood movies from the 2010s and 2020s. At least he doesn't fill his films up with social justice politics.
I've always been interested in a Borderlands movie. It's just something so obviously easy to pull off with the lowest effort that a fan could do it and make a trilogy. This is like if the first ever adaption of the Lord of the Rings was the Rings of Power.
What's with this media trend that makes it so whenever someone say "that was the worst show I've ever seen," there's some entertainment executive waiting in the wings ready to say "hold my beer!"
last time i checked boarderlands humour wasnt all shit based, most of it was crazy fuckers doing crazy shit, sort of like shooty mc shoot face somehow thanking you afrer blowing his head off and that being an achievement in the game, now that i think on it a lot of the humour relied on the fact that it was in fact a game didnt it
9 vs 41 percent are nowhere near the same. And it shows how stupid people are compared to the reviewers. At least even the paid reviewers are smart enough to call this crap. Cuz the regular people ate it up compared to the critics
I feel like the plot was lost with this series once we got into games past Borderlands 2... Borderlands 2 was the last game when the story actually mattered. Seeing how someone as vile as Handsome Jack would delight in outright killing/harming the last game's protags and NPC's just because he could due to his own superiority complex compelled the player to want to see an end to him. The whole thing with Tyreen and Troy... They were more annoying pests with OP stats than credible, despicable villains you wanted to bring poetic justice on. And even in the case of Jack, despite how terrible of a person he was, still had a complex that he was doing things for the right reasons. Despite all his terrible acts he at least had conviction in a twisted sense to make the universe a better place, where as the Calypso twins were just killing because they had daddy issues.
Borderlands 3 is best enjoyed with the dialog volume turned to zero. The DLCs were actually decent though, especially the cowboy one. That actually had an interesting villain with really character traits and motivations. That DLC also had a general atmosphere that was more reminiscent of the first game.
@@spitfire3975 I'll give ya that. That DLC was actually more enjoyable than the base game, though it still had a few snags similar to the side quests that plagued the base game. Other than that, yes, great DLC.
Only now? They have had their inadequacy on full display for nearly a decade now. Hollywood needs end credits, without any end credit scenes to delay the burial.
It's obvious that the movie was written by hacks using AI, then went through "committee" and was sentenced to bureaucracy. 😢 I remember when art was worth making...
I knew this was going to be trash one I heard the voice of Clap trap. Like come on people, that is the icon of borderlands. And you replaced David Eddings with god dam jack black. Jack black dose not even sound close to it.
Spot on! Every time the stupid robot said something it was like the voice actor paused for a laugh. Nobody in my cinema laughed once. There's a tipping point where Quirky goes into unfunny cringe, and the movie tipped very fast. Blanchett is about 25 years too old for her character.
She's not just too old to play the character - she is rapidly approaching the age of being too old to be the parent of that character. Blanchett would be cast as the grandmother in a sane world where Hollywood wasn't slowly transitioning into an old folks' home for people who used to be pretty but are now made of Botox.
Man I loved Borderlands 1 and 2 but those games changed the industry for the worse with it's writing. I remember the game "Wildstar" coming out back in 2014 and it copied the style and man.. I was already so done with it.
Borderlands 3 the game failed because the writing was absolute garbage. Tales from the Borderlands 2 failed because the writing was absolutely garbage. Now they are putting out a movie that will likely fail because, take a guess. Whoever is in charge of narrative and writing is literally KILLING the company but keeps getting hired, likely due to diversity quotas or something else equally terrible. As a borderlands fan, it's fucking TRAGIC.
This is honestly how I feel about almost everything made these days. Comedies are written and presented by utterly humorless people for example. Characters are uninteresting, unsympathetic, unrelatable, and inhuman. I guess other people eventually see it too if the egregious gets turned up high enough.
i remember piss gulley in the first bordelands, there's a jump and a joke about diving in piss if you miss it, the joke was already completely written, it didn't need changing
I would've really loved a Spiderman: No Way Home style borderlands movie, with the crews of the various games in DIRECT competition with each other in a race to crack open a newly discovered Vault, etc. I think that's IMMEDIATELY a better premise than whatever is going on in this movie.
Challenge: Go see it in the theater and laugh raucously at every non-joke. Be the only one laughing. Laugh hard enough to make people worried. Your score is based on the number of people moving away from you. Double points if they leave.

Soon if not already, movies / cinema will be considered a defunct form of entertainment where we literally only watch old films that were actually well made. There's no originality or creativity left. There's really no point in new films being made anymore.
7:00 It's like...they were trying to bake a cake, so they got all the ingredients together...and threw them in the dishwasher...there's a mistake in fundamental understanding here...
Wow this movie was produced, edited, and made into a full movie without me even being aware of it's existence until Arch talks about it. No ads for me, long time player of this game franchise before it got bad? Nothing on anything regarding build-up, like, Cate Blanchett is in this and I'm not informed? What? What medium were they advertising this on? Did they just pay half a dozen people to wander around and whisper to others that this movie was going to come out someday? Did I miss the carrier pigeon and/or smoke signal ad they sent out during the Super Bowl? Did they so deliberately make this movie bad that it's only function is to get the 27 remaining Borderlands players off the game itself and out into the economy? Without answers all I have are questions...
A bit of a hot take (not really), but Gearbox has _never_ been good at writing. Borderlands 1 was pretty basic, decent gameplay and concept, yet nothing amazing in the story Borderlands 2... can we all admit that like 90% of what made the story of that game good was Handsome Jack? He carried that whole story on his diamond-encrusted pony Buttstallion's back Borderlands 3... yeahhh, we all know how well that went... So given that history, yeah this had virtually zero chance of being any good, everybody knew it, and what do you know it ended up sucking the big hard one just like everyone knew it would.
Krieg and Gage were good characters, scooter was amusing and the DLC for 2 had some of the best writing in the series. I still love the captain Scarlett character. But 2 was the exception not the rule. And for some reason I was never as into Lilith as everyone else was. As for claptrap. Well to quote hammerlock "I feel my brain cells dieing one by one whenever he speaks".
The movie was based off the first game which had a bad story and was mostly gameplay. It took the writing from modern gearbox which tried to wave the banner of modern politics... And tanked most of their story writing as you can see where the good writing is supposed to be before someone shoved it to side quests and strangled the rest of the main story. Then as the last piece to place on top of this pile of garbage... Modern movie writing with everyone including the freaking CHILD seems to be played from the rejected actors of retired action hero actors... Who are pretending that they are twenty year olds. It wasn't a question of IF the movie would be bad... But only HOW BAD it actually would be. This is the return of the god awful video game movies made because nobody thought a movie about a video game could possibly be good! It is so bad you would be right to think they slapped Borderlands title on a different movie awful movie.
@@nautdead3197two was actually good. Assault on dragon keep is some of the best writing in the series. And you have to love Captain Scarlett. A character that they literally tell you will betray you when you meet her...and you still end up liking her.
Gearbox's randy pitchford approved this, as a fan of the first two games, the pre-sequal, and the first tales of the borderlands, and someone that hates borderlands 3 because of how much randy pitchford hates his customers, I understand why this movie exists and it explains why it exists, This movie was made out of pure spite for the customers.
I saw the trailor and immediately said "F*** this" when I saw they didn't have Brick and Mordicai. When Roland didn't behave like Roland and Lilith was just an insufferable twat.
One look at Roland and Lilith was all I needed to know about this mess. A barely manly manlet and someone's aunt are the last people you would cast to play those two.
Look up a current picture of Jack Black and imagine his hair is white and his beard is all white. Now look up a picture of Karl Marx and put it next to Jack Black. The resemblance is uncanny.

The alphabet agencies need this study to continue, and your input is regarded, but meaningless.
You're lucky I recently watched some newer horror movies and realized the problem with them. The characters have no personality, there's no life to the characters so you give zero fucks about who lives and who dies.
Even in the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, there is no end to the woke. They will destroy our cultures over and over until there's nothing left for anyone but a mileu of idiotic notions. Dragging and destroying our heroes so we have none to emulate. Destroying our stories of good vs evil, so we lose our way to morality and decency. Make no mistake, it's a concerted effort on every front for a very real, very tangible reason.
Why is Lilith a grandma? Why is Tina a rich kid? Why did they choose that god awful music for the trailer when Borderlands literally debuted with Cage the Elephant? The music doesn’t suit the vibe at all. It should be alt rock.
They uglified hot fictional women just like those modern Sweet Baby Inc games.
@@anonymoustroll2432 I just can’t understand this stuff. I’ve never met a woman who doesn’t appreciate attractive women/people in general. I’m fat and ugly and old. If I wanted to look at ugly people id look in the mirror. I don’t understand this need people apparently have to self insert and “identify”.
@@rickybobby5153middle aged childless wine aunts are writing these things
@@rickybobby5153narcissism and envy is a hella thing
@@rickybobby5153 Honestly, it's really simple. Women, in general, objectify themselves. They treat themselves as products - products consisting of, as Patrice O'Neal once said, a series of holes. When you have a particularly unappealing product, as these hideous and hate-filled women in the "entertainment" industry, then the only way to compete is to disparage the competition. Either you make it unpalatable for relationships by convincing it to do OF work, or you do as these cretins do: portray beautiful women as ugly in an attempt to convince the public that there are no beautiful women. This, presumably, would raise the value of their "products" or at the very least devalue the rest until they're close to an even playing field.
We finally found what made Krieg lose his mind.
They played the borderlands movie to him on repeat for 3 years
I would thank Arch for his sacrifice, but I think we all knew Boredorlands would suck. So this is more like a needless self inflicted injury.

Given the cast looked like they were wheeled out of an old folks home, you didn't even have the original VA for CLAP-TRAP, you got Kevin Heart instead of Terry Cruise or some other guy that actually looks and sounds like Roland (personally I would have found Bobby Lashley and pitched it to him);
it's like they did everything to try and fail. Mission accomplished, I guess.
Well, there was some controversy surrounding CLAP-TRAP's original voice actor, had a falling out with Gearbox during the production of Borderlands 3. Randy is responsible and Randy should of faced criminal charges for what he did.
I also thought Terry crews would have been a good choice 😆
I mean, Lashley is pushing 50 himself; but he's still jacked as fuck. The only question is can he really act, as opposed to a wrestling crowd?

But bless her, she really threw herself into it, what with having a rubber face stretched and stapled to her skull for real.

Wh- Okay. Roland might've been a dull character (and an arsehole going off the Pre-Sequel, though nowhere near to Lilith's extent, she's just _vile),_ but having this stoic, capable commando portrayed by the short screamy guy? I beg your pardon, was the director snorting crystal meth for a week straight before making that decision?
@@Lord_Numptyyeah I always like Maya better than Lilith, but my favorite playable character was actually Gage.
People were asking for a Borderlands 1 or 2 level of humor (preferably 1 in a movie, 2 is already way too much), instead they went with Borderlands 3 levels of writing when absolutly everybody hated BL3 jokes and dialogues.
This wasn't even Borderlands 3 level jokes....this was New Tales from the Borderlands level dialogue and jokes
It was pretty obvious what's it gonna be when they said it's PG13
BL1's humor is too mature for PG13
I DID NOT LIKE the villains in "3". Maybe I'm a little biased, because I got the privilege of getting the smug, arrogant, petulant conniving, and funny Handsome Jack as a villain. The Twins were just flavorless, Gen-Z fillers, if you ask me.
@@travisreed1730 Nobody liked the twins.
In fact, everything that has to do with the writing was hated by most people in BL3

Hi Kibs!
Edit: I asked ChatGPT (GPT 4o) to write a rough outline for a Borderland's movie and it delivered this:
**Title:** *Borderlands: The Vault Hunter's Gambit*
### **Logline:**
In the distant, lawless world of Pandora, a group of misfit mercenaries known as Vault Hunters race against time, corporate warlords, and each other to uncover the secrets of a legendary alien Vault that promises unimaginable power.
### **Act 1: Introduction to Pandora**
- **Opening Scene:**
- The movie begins with a high-octane chase scene through the wastelands of Pandora, showcasing the brutal environment and chaotic inhabitants. A mysterious figure (later revealed to be a Vault Hunter) barely escapes with their life.
- **Backstory & Setup:**
- A voiceover (Claptrap, providing comic relief) introduces the world of Pandora, a lawless frontier planet. The legend of the Vault is established-a mythical alien structure rumored to contain vast treasures and power, hidden for millennia.
- **Introduction to the Vault Hunters:**
- **Protagonists:**
- *Roland* - A former soldier turned mercenary, driven by a personal vendetta.
- *Lilith* - A Siren with mysterious, powerful abilities, seeking to understand her past.
- *Mordecai* - A sharpshooter with a pet bird named Bloodwing, hunting for glory.
- *Brick* - A massive, hulking brawler who loves nothing more than smashing things.
- Each Vault Hunter has their own reason for seeking the Vault, and their paths converge as they arrive at a town called Sanctuary, a safe haven for those who defy the corporations controlling Pandora.
- **Antagonist Introduction:**
- *Handsome Jack* - The charming yet sociopathic CEO of Hyperion Corporation, obsessed with finding and controlling the Vault to cement his rule over Pandora.
### **Act 2: The Quest Begins**
- **Assembling the Team:**
- The Vault Hunters reluctantly team up after discovering they share a common goal: to find the Vault before Handsome Jack does. Each character’s strengths are highlighted as they work together, despite their differences and mutual distrust.
- **The Journey Across Pandora:**
- The team embarks on a journey across Pandora, facing off against bandits, wild alien creatures, and rival mercenaries. Along the way, they gather clues about the Vault’s location from ancient Eridian ruins and eccentric NPCs like *Tannis*, a quirky scientist obsessed with the Vault.
- **Character Development:**
- Interpersonal conflicts arise, especially between the disciplined Roland and the chaotic Brick, but they gradually learn to trust each other. Lilith’s powers grow stronger and more unpredictable, creating tension within the group.
- **The Corporate Threat:**
- Handsome Jack sends waves of Hyperion soldiers and robotic enforcers to stop the Vault Hunters. A key battle takes place at a Hyperion facility, where the team narrowly escapes but not without sustaining losses.
### **Act 3: Race to the Vault**
- **The Final Stretch:**
- The Vault Hunters discover the Vault’s location deep within Pandora’s most treacherous region. However, Jack’s forces are hot on their heels. The team is forced to navigate dangerous terrain and solve ancient puzzles to reach the Vault.
- **The Climax:**
- The Vault Hunters arrive at the Vault’s entrance just as Handsome Jack does. A massive, chaotic battle ensues, with both sides fighting not only each other but also the Vault’s guardians-giant alien constructs.
- **Vault Reveal:**
- The Vault is finally opened, revealing not just treasure but a powerful, otherworldly entity (a precursor to the “Warrior” from Borderlands 2) that could either destroy or save Pandora. Handsome Jack attempts to control the entity, leading to a final showdown between him and the Vault Hunters.
- **Resolution:**
- The Vault Hunters manage to defeat the entity and Jack, but at great personal cost. The Vault collapses, seemingly destroyed. The survivors are left to ponder the true nature of the Vault and the cost of their quest.
### **Epilogue:**
- **Setting Up Future Adventures:**
- The movie ends with a tease of new adventures: a mysterious signal is detected from another Vault on a different planet, hinting at a sequel. The Vault Hunters, now bonded by their experiences, decide to continue their journey together, while the remnants of Hyperion retreat to plot their revenge.
- **Post-Credits Scene:**
- A lone figure (possibly *Tiny Tina* or *Zero*), in the shadows, examines a piece of Eridian technology, grinning as they make a cryptic remark about the next Vault.
Amazing. Gpt is now more human than Hollywood types.
would watch
Handsome Jack with BL1 instead of BL2 but still closer than this movie
Legit better than something they dumped thousands of people and millions of dollars into. Then you still choose washed up actors and bad poop/pee jokes as Hollywood. Amazing.
The alphabet agencies need this study to continue, and your input is regarded, but meaningless.
Goddamn it, Randy Pitchford! I'm convinced that Randy is behind this.
No charm, no soul, no sense of humor. No surprises there.
When they had Jack Black do the voice of Claptrap instead of the original voice actor I knew it would suck.
Mine was short goofy ass Kevin Hart trying to play Roland.

I liked Borderlands 1 and 2 and yeah, I wasn’t surprised
@@MyShiroyuki Me too, but remember, Borderlands 2 came out in 2012. Why does this movie even exist now?
@@rishnix BL3 came out 2019
@@oz_jones And? I was sick of BL by then and didn't play BL3. Just further proves my point about how late this is.
1st borderlands is the only good one...
I tried to watch that Big Bang Theory for five minutes. Is Borderlands like that?
"I said something, laugh now"
Worse
I read that last line in Sheldon's voice... ugh
Big bang can actually give you a laugh after several beers and switching your brain off. This though.....
Big Bang Theory was funnier than this.
Big Bang Theory is an insult to geek and nerd culture. It's people laughing at you, not with you. They represent modern day social justice activists who have invaded entertainment and ruined it.
I'm really getting tired of watching no talent Hollywood hacks ruin existing IPs in search of the "modern audience". That audience doesn't exist. If that audience was interested in Borderlands or Star Wars or Lord of the Rings, then they would have been consuming content related to them all along... but they aren't.
I just don't get this mentality of taking an existing franchise, then doing everything to spite the fans, then being surprised that it's a failure. It's the literal definition of insanity.
Your presumption that they're seeking success is flawed. These studios are still led by executives who remember when movies were good, and the formula to make those good movies. Most of the writers and directors behind those good movies are still alive, just pushed out of the industry. These people are not trying to make money: they know how to do it, they don't want to. They can recoup their losses, primarily through fraud, or through hedge funds (which are typically just fraud with extra steps). It's all about destroying what people love.
@@WhiteManOnCampus I really can't argue with that. It makes too much sense to not be true. It really does feel like there's an active movement to destroy anything that might seem even vaguely "nerdy". Then when we get upset, we're gaslit and accused of being "bigots" or "(insert thing here) phobes".
Just remember not to fall into the trap of setting the bar SO low that something as garbage as Deadpool 3 gets praised as "good" when it's a disaster.
The first thing these companies are going to do when they want to try to *actually* make money off us again is tank the quality of these products so they can raise it ever so *SLIGHTLY* and pretend like they made a masterpiece for us to gush all over.
If it's bad, it's *bad.* A standard is a *standard.* NEVER lower them. If these companies want credit for their efforts, they have to *earn* it. Don't give them an inch.

Isn't that just anything post 2?
@@Lord_NumptyExactly correct. This was a series that peaked somewhere in the first game's DLC and has been steadily marching downhill for the rest of time. What Arch watched was just an accurate translation of the last few boderlands game's "jokes" to the big screen.

This is like watching a Uwe Boll movie, except worse and with a higher budget. And not getting a write-off from the german government either for the money spent on it. I just don't get it, is this money laundering or there are people just enjoying burning their money?
Money laundering.
At least Boll is up front about his movies being schlocky tax write-offs, and you know what you're getting when you watch a Boll film. This is something else completely.
Postal was actually good, from what I recall
@@RambleOn07 It was probably the most accurate-to-source videogame movie ever made.
Great if you're into that sort of humour and definitely the movie Running With Scissors wanted.
I rather watch Boll's movies than 99.9% of modern AAA Hollywood movies from the 2010s and 2020s. At least he doesn't fill his films up with social justice politics.
I've always been interested in a Borderlands movie. It's just something so obviously easy to pull off with the lowest effort that a fan could do it and make a trilogy. This is like if the first ever adaption of the Lord of the Rings was the Rings of Power.
What's with this media trend that makes it so whenever someone say "that was the worst show I've ever seen," there's some entertainment executive waiting in the wings ready to say "hold my beer!"
last time i checked boarderlands humour wasnt all shit based, most of it was crazy fuckers doing crazy shit, sort of like shooty mc shoot face somehow thanking you afrer blowing his head off and that being an achievement in the game, now that i think on it a lot of the humour relied on the fact that it was in fact a game didnt it
Face McShooty. Who blurts out 'THANKYOU' after you shoot him in the face.
With that in mind, it should've been an animated film. Think Looney Toons meets Battlefield 3 with a Mad Max aesthetic.
Wow, would you look at that? The critic and the audience score are almost the same for a change! That's pretty rare these days.
9 vs 41 percent are nowhere near the same. And it shows how stupid people are compared to the reviewers. At least even the paid reviewers are smart enough to call this crap. Cuz the regular people ate it up compared to the critics
Are you ok bud? 9% and almost 50% are nowhere near
If it was 30% maybe but 6 and 48%
@@reaper_exd7498 there also less reivewers the audiance reivews so that is why its more skewed
Critics usually defend these social justice propaganda movies no matter what.
I feel like the plot was lost with this series once we got into games past Borderlands 2... Borderlands 2 was the last game when the story actually mattered. Seeing how someone as vile as Handsome Jack would delight in outright killing/harming the last game's protags and NPC's just because he could due to his own superiority complex compelled the player to want to see an end to him. The whole thing with Tyreen and Troy... They were more annoying pests with OP stats than credible, despicable villains you wanted to bring poetic justice on. And even in the case of Jack, despite how terrible of a person he was, still had a complex that he was doing things for the right reasons. Despite all his terrible acts he at least had conviction in a twisted sense to make the universe a better place, where as the Calypso twins were just killing because they had daddy issues.
Borderlands 3 is best enjoyed with the dialog volume turned to zero. The DLCs were actually decent though, especially the cowboy one. That actually had an interesting villain with really character traits and motivations. That DLC also had a general atmosphere that was more reminiscent of the first game.
@@spitfire3975I liked that one. And the hammerlock one. But I liked the hammerlock one because of the setting, I'm a fan of Lovecraft.
@@spitfire3975 I'll give ya that. That DLC was actually more enjoyable than the base game, though it still had a few snags similar to the side quests that plagued the base game. Other than that, yes, great DLC.
So writers and localizers being replaced by ai now has a point
AI told to make a comedy action flick would probably make deadshots
Not this
Only now? They have had their inadequacy on full display for nearly a decade now. Hollywood needs end credits, without any end credit scenes to delay the burial.
It's obvious that the movie was written by hacks using AI, then went through "committee" and was sentenced to bureaucracy. 😢 I remember when art was worth making...
Someone in the comments actually posted an outline of a Borderlands movie written by actual ChatGPT

Spot on! Every time the stupid robot said something it was like the voice actor paused for a laugh. Nobody in my cinema laughed once. There's a tipping point where Quirky goes into unfunny cringe, and the movie tipped very fast. Blanchett is about 25 years too old for her character.
She's not just too old to play the character - she is rapidly approaching the age of being too old to be the parent of that character. Blanchett would be cast as the grandmother in a sane world where Hollywood wasn't slowly transitioning into an old folks' home for people who used to be pretty but are now made of Botox.
The second writer in this show supposedly used a pseudonym. Probably because it was chatgpt
Tank Girl from the 90's. Not a masterpiece by a long stretch, but it was charming and had great set and costume design. A fun time.
Plus it had Ice-T dressed as a mutant kangaroo.
It's an action movie that thinks it's a comedy, but it's made by people that would have been thrown out of a comedy club.
This movie was made for youtubers to rip apart. It's basically "Borderlands 3 for even more modern audiences"
A videogame movie adaptation made in current year, not funny? Oh, No!
Anyway...
Man I loved Borderlands 1 and 2 but those games changed the industry for the worse with it's writing. I remember the game "Wildstar" coming out back in 2014 and it copied the style and man.. I was already so done with it.
Worst than Rings of Power, Rebel Moon, and Marvels? Wow. I didn't think it was possible. 😮
It has to be something special, NOT good, but special. I am sure it will be used to teach other People how not to make a Moive.
Borderlands 3 the game failed because the writing was absolute garbage. Tales from the Borderlands 2 failed because the writing was absolutely garbage. Now they are putting out a movie that will likely fail because, take a guess. Whoever is in charge of narrative and writing is literally KILLING the company but keeps getting hired, likely due to diversity quotas or something else equally terrible. As a borderlands fan, it's fucking TRAGIC.
This is honestly how I feel about almost everything made these days. Comedies are written and presented by utterly humorless people for example. Characters are uninteresting, unsympathetic, unrelatable, and inhuman.
I guess other people eventually see it too if the egregious gets turned up high enough.
i remember piss gulley in the first bordelands, there's a jump and a joke about diving in piss if you miss it, the joke was already completely written, it didn't need changing
I can see the robots from that old sonic cartoon putting down a sign saying " No fun allowed " as not just in mobius but in Hollywood as well
Sounds like this movie was more inspired by The Big Bang Theory humor instead of the video game.
Borderlands humour tends to say something awkward, acknowledge its awkward and repeat it loudly.
Since Borderlands 3, at least
I would've really loved a Spiderman: No Way Home style borderlands movie, with the crews of the various games in DIRECT competition with each other in a race to crack open a newly discovered Vault, etc.
I think that's IMMEDIATELY a better premise than whatever is going on in this movie.
I noped out of this the moment I saw necromancy being used to summon somebody to play Lilith.

Wow this movie was produced, edited, and made into a full movie without me even being aware of it's existence until Arch talks about it. No ads for me, long time player of this game franchise before it got bad? Nothing on anything regarding build-up, like, Cate Blanchett is in this and I'm not informed? What? What medium were they advertising this on? Did they just pay half a dozen people to wander around and whisper to others that this movie was going to come out someday? Did I miss the carrier pigeon and/or smoke signal ad they sent out during the Super Bowl? Did they so deliberately make this movie bad that it's only function is to get the 27 remaining Borderlands players off the game itself and out into the economy?
Without answers all I have are questions...
I heard that 123 movies is a phrase said often in combination with the bl movie watch recommendations
Isn’t that a piracy site?
I'm not surprised. The trailer already looked bad and I had no idea it was supposed to be Borderlands up until the Psycho was shown
Maybe they should just admit they intentionally tried to make the worst game adaptation movie humanly possible.
We would credit their success forever.
"I miss rebel moon" Those are some strong words, friend...
A bit of a hot take (not really), but Gearbox has _never_ been good at writing.
Borderlands 1 was pretty basic, decent gameplay and concept, yet nothing amazing in the story
Borderlands 2... can we all admit that like 90% of what made the story of that game good was Handsome Jack? He carried that whole story on his diamond-encrusted pony Buttstallion's back
Borderlands 3... yeahhh, we all know how well that went...
So given that history, yeah this had virtually zero chance of being any good, everybody knew it, and what do you know it ended up sucking the big hard one just like everyone knew it would.
Krieg and Gage were good characters, scooter was amusing and the DLC for 2 had some of the best writing in the series. I still love the captain Scarlett character. But 2 was the exception not the rule. And for some reason I was never as into Lilith as everyone else was. As for claptrap. Well to quote hammerlock "I feel my brain cells dieing one by one whenever he speaks".
After Borderlands, the respect for Uwe Boll skyrocketed.
in all seriousness I actually thought this movie was written by a dei higher not a AI
So is this basically the avatars life story as told by the fire nation playwright?
Borderlands made a movie?
News to me, I quit paying attention to Borderlands after *3.*
The movie was based off the first game which had a bad story and was mostly gameplay.
It took the writing from modern gearbox which tried to wave the banner of modern politics... And tanked most of their story writing as you can see where the good writing is supposed to be before someone shoved it to side quests and strangled the rest of the main story.
Then as the last piece to place on top of this pile of garbage...
Modern movie writing with everyone including the freaking CHILD seems to be played from the rejected actors of retired action hero actors... Who are pretending that they are twenty year olds.
It wasn't a question of IF the movie would be bad... But only HOW BAD it actually would be.
This is the return of the god awful video game movies made because nobody thought a movie about a video game could possibly be good!
It is so bad you would be right to think they slapped Borderlands title on a different movie awful movie.
All the borderlands games have bad writing
@@nautdead3197two was actually good. Assault on dragon keep is some of the best writing in the series. And you have to love Captain Scarlett. A character that they literally tell you will betray you when you meet her...and you still end up liking her.
Kibs is great get him back on Archcast preferably replacing Dev, anyone is better than him .. but Vee and Kibs were best
It is so bad that we had to increase all other bad movies scores to acomodate how bad it is
Gearbox's randy pitchford approved this, as a fan of the first two games, the pre-sequal, and the first tales of the borderlands, and someone that hates borderlands 3 because of how much randy pitchford hates his customers, I understand why this movie exists and it explains why it exists, This movie was made out of pure spite for the customers.
I saw the trailor and immediately said "F*** this" when I saw they didn't have Brick and Mordicai. When Roland didn't behave like Roland and Lilith was just an insufferable twat.
Hey, Kibs is back! Feels like it’s been forever!
Barch and I alway do stuff just not always on stream or vidjas.
Eli Roth should not try doing comedy movie.
Eli Roth should not try doing any movie, frankly.
One look at Roland and Lilith was all I needed to know about this mess. A barely manly manlet and someone's aunt are the last people you would cast to play those two.
Jack black hasnt been entertaining for at least a decade. Used to love him.
Look up a current picture of Jack Black and imagine his hair is white and his beard is all white.
Now look up a picture of Karl Marx and put it next to Jack Black. The resemblance is uncanny.
Boredomland or Boringland ?
And you are freaking lucky you have not seen it with Czech dubbing, I have seen just trailer and it was unbearable to the point that I would burn the whole internet down for unleashing that upon me...
Randy pitchford was to busy jorkin it to work on this movie just like the games
Gearbox so dead to me I didn't even know this movie was in the works till people talked about how trash it is.
