Borderlands became available to purchase today, insta buy for me on Apple TV so I get Dolby Vision, watching some of it now and it looks fantastic on my Sony OLED.

I loved it and I've never played the game.
I played this game with my Grandson. We used to negotiate with each other over each weapon that was found in a cache or dropped from off a dead enemy. :) It turned out that the spec on the weapon, such as “shock”, or “corrosive” vs straight damage, outweighed the listed damage of the weapon, so a 200 shock weapon was better or just as good as a 300 damage weapon.

Funny story: I was thinking of Fallout... lol.

I've not seen Borderland... my bad. I probably will one day...

Land Of Bad (2024)- 94% Audience rating on RT. Watched on Netflix. Good, taught, survival action thriller. Russel Crowe redeems himself post Guardians of the Galaxy performance. ;)

Really didn’t enjoy this one, found it to be far too stupid like a cat that NEVER makes a noise so you think it’s mute, then it pours at one point in the film… oh and it can survive being under water too, or how footsteps NEVER make a noice, but a brief case falling over sounds like a 200 ton weight being dropped from 100 feet up!

it really lacks the charm of the first 2 films, perhaps because it lacked the brilliant young deaf actress from those first two films.

I’m going to Megalopolis tomorrow afternoon. I expect it to be bad AF.

I was wrong. It was worse than expected. It was the worst movie I have ever watched. I’m using the word worst here without the slightest bit of exaggeration. Francis Ford Coppola has lost his mind and $120m. His paycheck from the original Godfather will be more than he deserves off this steaming pile.

I’m a sci-fi nerd.. so wait till this streams?

For me, this is the worst scifi movie adaptation of a book, “Battlefield Earth”. I have to say it’s the first major sci-fi movie I’ve turned off while watching. The book was so good.
Yes I have the DVD from 2000-ish in my collection.
