Apologies that this is not a pure gaming question, but I'd really like to hear people's opinion on the Borderlands movie trailer and especially from people who have played the games. That's why I'm asking here, I hope that's ok.

Of all people who they could have chosen to play Claptrap... they chose Jack black.

I generally like Jack Black, but he's completely wrong for the role.

In fact, the only one I think is ok is Tiny Tina.

Interesting. In the trailer, I don't mind Jack Black (not sure if he is a good pick though), but I sure miss the complete insanity from Tina. That's what made her character so crazy and fun for me (yes, that sounds weird, even for myself).

Tina looks terrible, I don’t know what you’re talking about. This movie is going to be awful.

Well, I said "ok", which isn't great. And it's compared to the rest of them which are THE WORST CASTING CHOICES in a while.
