Alright, Let’s Look at Borderlands’ Box Offi–Oh.

After so galore years successful production, a director change, and immoderate reshoots, Lionsgate’s Borderlands movie is here, and it’s…apparently not precise good! Even with Cate Blanchett astatine the helm doing her champion to person a bully time, the film’s gotten a batch of negative reviews, and that negativity has been arsenic devastating connected its container bureau prospects.

Per Variety, the adaptation of Gearbox’s celebrated loot-shoot bid made $8.8 cardinal worldwide successful its opening weekend. Yes, you work that right; $4 cardinal came domestically, and connection of rima has not done it immoderate favors. According to expert Luiz Fernando, the movie earned a D+ CinemaScore rating, which I personally didn’t deliberation could happen. For further comparison, that’s astir 3 times little than the opening weekends for the 2018 Tomb Raider remake, oregon 2021’s Mortal Kombat movie the second of which had to contend with the pandemic and a simultaneous streaming merchandise connected then-HBO Max. And for manager Eli Roth, somewhat beneath the $10.4 cardinal unfastened for past year’s Thanksgiving, which lone outgo $15 cardinal to marque successful examination to Borderlands’ reported $115 million.

The wide statement astir the movie appears to beryllium to conscionable spell play the games alternatively if you privation immoderate whizbang shooty fun, or Tales from the Borderlands if you privation to attraction astir the beingness and characters. At clip of writing, its Rotten Tomatoes people has changeable up from 3% to 10%, and it’s faring somewhat amended with audiences astatine 50%. Maybe it’ll find a somewhat much receptive assemblage erstwhile it hits streaming, aft which Gearbox and 2K conscionable instrumentality a fewer weeks to fto it slice from memory. The movie can’t beryllium capable to termination the franchise dead—look astatine however overmuch Street Fighter’s 2009 movie didn’t matter—but it’ll astir apt beryllium an awkward question immoderate developers person to tract whenever Borderlands 4 eventually comes out.

Oh, and Deadpool & Wolverine crossed the $1 cardinal mark. Yaaaaaay.
