That's right, fool.

I've played the first one and it's pretty good but let;'s get the first batch of these new generation video game to movie adaptations out the way then we can see the likes of this.

Oh and get cracking on casting for Uncharted you fools.

Not a bad idea, but they lost me at the words "Avi Arad." Shame, because this could be really good under the right director (Sam Raimi immediately comes to mind).

Eli Roth will direct the Borderlands movie, according to Gearbox boss

News of Roth’s role in the Borderlands movie was tweeted by Gearbox Software boss Randy Pitchford overnight.

Pitchford quickly deleted the tweet, but luckily Kotaku took a screenshot of it.

The reason it was deleted, is apparently the news was to be announced during Gearbox’s stage show at Pax East on February 28. Cat’s out of the bag now, though.

That's.... something.

Never played but happy to be getting more VG movies. Just hope they are all good.

Might be okay I guess but I wish Eli would just make Thanksgiving. I guess I might as well give up hope on that one because it’s clearly never happening.

Jack Black Reunites With Eli Roth & Cate Blanchett For ‘Borderlands’ Movie – Deadline

Jack Black is the lastest a-lister to join Liongate and director Eli Roth’s feature adaptation of the bestselling videogame Borderlands. Black will voice the role of Claptrap, a persistently sarcastic robot that isn’t all that invested in the survival of his teammate.

The role reunites Black with his The House with a Clock in Its Walls co-star Cate Blanchett and Roth, who directed the 2018 fantasy film which took in 130 million worldwide. He’s also joining Kevin Hart and Jamie Lee Curtis.

“I am so excited to reunite with Jack, this time in the recording booth,” Roth commented. “Claptrap is the funniest character in the game, and Jack is perfect to bring him to the big screen.”

“We couldn’t have been more in sync with our filmmakers and casting executives as we approached this role,” said Nathan Kahane, president of the Lionsgate Motion Picture Group. “It’s one of the biggest no-brainer casting decisions we’ve ever made. Everyone who’s ever played the game knows Jack is perfect for this part. We’re thrilled he will add his endless comic energy and voice to our film – he’ll bring so much to the movie.”
