I work at AMC Theaters... So yesterday, we were deep into our second HUGE rush. I SWEAR I was taken back and had to pause for a moment when a guest asked, "Two for Borderlands please" I legit didn't even realize we were showing the movie. NO ONE was seeing it - I had to take like 5 seconds to look on our POS system for the movie, I didn't even know where the button was for it. Mind you, this was our second MASSIVE rush for the day (hours long, people out the door for each one).. ...................and it took almost 5 hours into my shift to sell TWO BORDERLANDS TICKETS. "Is it almost sold out? Will we get okay seats?" They looked almost shocked when I told them "Actually you two are the only guests in there so far".... dude it's literally playing in our biggest auditorium too. It's embarrassing. They looked embarrassed for going to it.

Modern may be a better fit, but I think the pre-modern psychological profile would have been more interesting.

@@tasa4904 I'm not saying there's no version of Tina that could resemble some version of Harley Quinn, but honestly even that feels like a stretch for me. I get inspiration is a funny thing, but why is the source material not your core inspiration for the character you're playing? Why did your talk with the actress that played the character in three games end with you deciding to do something totally different? When it comes to game films and shows, time and again fans have shown they want true-to-source, so when an actor is talking about being inspired by a totally separate character, I think that's a concern at least.
