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.

I mean, I understand leaving out Brick. Both Roland and Brick are not... bastions of dialogue. Both combined could be a bit much in a film. Even though he's a fascinating character. Mordecai confuses me more. He seems like a much better straight man (comedy term, not the orientation) than Roland or Brick, and if he operates like a sniper then he makes a great diagetic narrator to move dialogue and scenes because he operates as the scout from range. Granted the CG for the bird will probably cost.

I'm sure a good chunk was they wanted more Tiny Tina, and then they added Kreig just for the reveal moment which is... a lot of dedicated screen time just to create a moment. Seeing as he barely had any time in the trailer... clearly he doesn't shine in this film.
