Randy Pitchford's Borderlands Movie Breakdown Reaction!!!

[@lizdru8401]

I think the reason they hired most of these people is because Randy was being a fanboy. You can literally hear it in his voice. How you gonna have a sequel when these people are already old AF.

[@MorninAfterKill]

this. 100% :D

[@theclaybeartravels3596]

Maybe the sequel will be a different group of vault hunters and it'll be called a pre-sequel

[@lizdru8401]

When is the hotfix coming with new actors and director...

[@DemonicRemption]

@lizdru8401 I figured he casted these actors because he's a fan of them. I got that feeling when I covered the GearBox E3 conference back in 2021 and we got a tour of the movie set and sound stage. Why else would he hire this cast?

[@lizdru8401]

@@DemonicRemption I 💯 believe that!

[@alanforrester]

This film is a monument to Randy Pitchford's narcissism.

[@0fficalHellfire]

My favorite part is when Randy admits to breaking the runner by sitting on it 💀 I knew that shit was rinky dink just by looking at it

[@strangerofthe2067]

Not really related to this video, but I got such a laugh out of seeing Joltz community post while scrolling through KZbin last night. “I was gonna make a video on the trailer but I’ve decided against it” lmao. Bro just really won’t speak out against Randy for ANY REASON. All he said was there were some things he thought were “terrible” about the trailer but won’t elaborate on it. I just think it’s so wild that the game you’ve dedicated your life to now has a movie coming out and you know it’s bad but STILL just won’t speak negatively about it lol. Spineless behavior.

[@BigWheel.]

It's such a fence rider take. He obviously has things to say, but he won't because he doesn't want to be toxic or something like that. But I personally can't stand someone who sees something they don't like, but will decide to just sit out of any conversation about the subject even if they're someone who's opinion would be considered valuable.

[@strangerofthe2067]

@@BigWheel. I just think it’s CRAZY that arguably the largest BL creator would NOT react to the first trailer for the first movie for Borderlands. It speaks VOLUMES to how scared anyone being paid by Gearbox is to speak negativity on anything the company does. Like you know damn well all of his fans fully expected him to talk about it, and I’m sure a lot of them expected him to come out and be honest about it, and choosing to say you’ve “decided against it” is basically saying what you’re afraid to say anyway, so why not just say it? It’s just crazy to me that you wouldn’t come out and say yeah, this doesn’t look good lol. Don’t jeopardize that paycheck though Joltz lol.

[@juicymuscprod9624]

​@strangerofthe2067 it's joltz whole thing tho, he doesn't like negativity and toxicity, so why would he react to something he knows he wouldn't have nice things to say about it. And there's nothing wrong with not wanting to speak negatively about anything.

[@neddy154]

[@Fierce_Chimera]

36:12 Also, Randy said himself that Atlas is the most profitable and successful company in Borderlands, but the Atlas soldiers look like they're wearing Wal-Mart Halloween costumes😂

[@knavenformed9436]

With the cast being so old compared to source material, they still didn't give Tinas role to Ashley Burch Biggest missed opportunity of the project

[@MorninAfterKill]

as much as I dislike Ashley Burch, I kinda agree

[@kabrinarobertson1806]

No, not keeping claptrap’s voice was the biggest missed opportunity

[@leejordan001]

Borderlands 2 was a lightning in a bottle. Never will be captured again...

[@LinkMaster5555]

I agree even if the endgame is rough

[@ImportanJoe]

Now I get it. They cast Cate for Lilith due to the size of her neck.

[@LeewardSideMusic]

Arcane is a perfect example of how to take a video game to the movie screen. Such a phenomenal show based on League of Legends *characters*

Ive heard good things about that but the Cyberpunk Anime was really cool

[@ariesconner4565]

Gearbox needs a new (ceo?, Company head) that understands the community and the games. The presequal is my most played and favorite borderlands game

[@LinkMaster5555]

Yes more Pre Sequel love 😊

[@heydude8653]

Pre sequel is underrated. Not my favorite but a good game. The skill trees were light years beyond BL3 or even worse, Wonderlands. I miss Athena.

[@Fierce_Chimera]

16:24 I have a couple of guesses to what the floating blocks are. Firstly, after you mentioned that they may be guardians, I started thinking that too and noticing all of them taper at the top. I believe if those blue spires are guardians, then I think the golden spire is an Arch guardian. If it isn't a guardian at all, I think that itself is the vault, and the blue spires are guardians that were activated.

[@chernobyl169]

So the reason that the Borderlands movie is going to suck is because Randy Pitchford spent $150M on a movie written for an audience of one instead of literally doing the job of "CEO of a video game company"

[@ZyphunYT]

It blows my mind that $150M was spent on the production of this film

[@CAV_PEE]

[@triple6274]

Randy would have a couple drones to make sure nobody was around 😂

[@TheHijabiGamer]

Totally agree. That is a Destiny reference because that is how Bungie sneaked a reference to Destiny ina Halo game. I think it was in Halo ODST. There is a poster on the wall with a picture of Earth and what many assumed was the moon. But it was too large to be the moon. Looking back now it was the traveler and written on the poster was "Destiny Awaits" This was removed from the Master Chief collection.

[@richardplunkett8492]

Mak making the comment about an end credits teaser showing off handsome Jack makes so much sense. It's totally something they'd pull. The only way that will be hype is if they bring back the guy who originally voiced him and not fucking Chris Pratt or some bullshit.

[@hanzo90]

bro nice catch with spotting sanctuary in the middle of that space station

[@nuclearsaltlord8497]

Now that I know that Randy was the executive producer for the movie I feel like Jack Black did originally try to sound more like Claptrap. Only to be punched in the face and told to say the line in a way that didn't trigger Randy's muscle memory.

[@ofacetious1288]

"I could probably beat Mouthpiece slappin' the controller against my ass the whole time" 🤣🤣🤣

[@deeactive1329]

This trailer was not the best. The casting the age differences just not a good start.

[@DDagove]

Hey Morninafterkill, my theory is the mouthpiece character is Brick, since in the interview Randy says the bandit "krom" is taller than krieg. Brick is taller in the games and mouthpiece is holding a bludgeon of sorts. That and the fact his mask is SLIGHTLY like his mask before he reveals himself to bl2 characters, so he will be in disguised here? So I'm guessing its his group? We go and talk with him? Its far fetched yes, but food for thought. Outrageous guess tho xD

[@MyLzTurn2Dubz]

You raise great points

[@PhantomNatsu]

37:10 If they don't want to acknowledge the existence of Pre-Sequel, then why should we acknowledge everything that happened after BL2?

[@AlexiaHoardwing]

Love the fact you were able to quote the tina line being from gaige, I was about to comment about it but waited to see if you said anything.

I remember reading interviews with Randy Pitchfork talking about how he really wished they had done the high res borderlands instead of the cell shaded he felt like it would have done better somehow... Wouldn't surprise me if he tried to make that happen. This feels like Randy's vanity project It feels like they're inverting Lilith and Roland He's the goofy clown and she's the girl boss which is basically just a man with a vagina.

This movie should have just been done in the same animated cell-shaded style as the game.
