You might have heard that the Borderlands movie isn’t going great, both at the box office and with the critics. However, the person who probably took it the worst wasn’t the cast and crew–it was Randy Pitchford, president and CEO of Gearbox, the company where the Borderlands games originated–with another one on the way. Pitchford’s response seemed like in good stride, even saying he was flattered.”So what you’re saying is: You like what my friends and I do with our Borderlands video games even more than you like what some of the biggest and best cast and crew of filmmakers on the planet have done,” he tweeted. “I’m super flattered! We’re working extra hard [for] you on what’s next….”That sort of positivity was pretty funny, as bad video game adaptations happen. But Pitchford’s response…

It’s been 42 years since Tron premiered in theaters, and 14 years since Tron: Legacy was released. The third installment, Tron: Ares, has been in the works for years. But at D23, Disney was finally ready to share the first look at the next chapter in the franchise. Jared Leto plays the title character, Ares, a program who has come from the Grid and entered the real world. Leto was on hand for the preview alongside Greta Lee, Evan Peters, and original Tron star Jeff Bridges. Peters will be playing Julian Dillinger, a character who is presumably related to David Warner’s Ed Dillinger from the first film. Cillian Murphy portrayed Dillinger’s son, Edward Dillinger, Jr., in Tron: Legacy. Peters’ character was featured prominently in the preview as Dillinger gives a keynote speech about intellig…

The Borderlands film received generally poor reviews from critics, but that doesn’t always signal a lack of success at the office as many poorly rated films perform just fine. However, that wasn’t the case for the Borderlands movie, which is bombing with only $8.8 million for its opening weekend in the US.The movie earned $7.7 million from international markets for a global start of $16.5 million. Variety, which supplied the box office numbers, said that figure was “embarrassing.”The report said about 60% of the Borderlands movie’s production costs have already been made back through pre-sales to international exhibitors. However, it’s still a disappointing result for the film, which carried a reported production budget of $115 million and advertising and distribution costs of about $30 mi…
