Oh good... Kevin Hart... I have no faith in this movie at all.

It sucks because Tales from the Borderlands is one of my favorite games of all time and everything that has come out from the Borderlands franchise since then has been garbage.

Tales From The Borderlands really was THAT bitch.....so good you can’t even buy it legally anymore 😭 Apparently there’s rumours of a sequel, but I’m actually not sure I’d want that. The first game is just so perfect (and it was painful enough seeing how Gearbox wrote Rhys and Vaughn in BL3)

i read the title like "surely this isn't about that borderlands" but damn i guess it is. i wonder how it'll turn out

All Kevin does is scream and make weird faces...which is something Roland never does. I know borderlands has a lot of edgy-ish humor, but Roland being so stone faced is also what made a lot of the crazy shit happening around him funny

Since I am an ONTDer and I don't read I didn't even read the text and it would NEVER come to mind that he would play Roland of all people. ROLAND?!?!!?!?!? Tall ass stone-faced righteous straight-man to everyone else Roland?!

Man I love Borderlands and this is how I find out they're gonna ruin it in film?

I mean, honestly, fuck Eli Roth.

Edit: Also he's totally wrong for Roland other than being black tbh. wtf is this. Who's Cate Blanchett playing, Tiny Tina or something?

[alterector]

Cate is playing Lilith

[shadowpiranha]

Ah.

You know, that's not better.
