Arnold did his review earlier but while it caused a great deal of controversy, this here is what you would call a "second opinion review." Therefore, I won't approach it in the standard way; i.e., breaking each section down in the usual format. I'll just voice my thoughts after playing for a good part of the day."
Take-Two admits the Borderlands movie was disappointing, though it still contributed to the game catalog's sales.
"we don’t really need to break out the contribution from the film because while it was economically positive"
Come on, there was nothing positive about it, it literally bled money...not really economically.
No there was not. The same way there was no Dragon Ball live action movie, nor an Avatar the Last Airbender live action movie :)
So the movie cost 155 million to produce and another 30 million dollars to promote . Borderlands movie brought in around 31 million worldwide . So basically, the Borderlands movie was a 154 million commercial for Borderlands video game franchise.
