In a galaxy far, far away, a psychotic wasteland dweller is strapped to a pole with explosives. Thirteen-year-old Tiny Tina comes skipping along, singing “Pop Goes the Weasel” before detonating the explosives and causing bits of the psychotic wasteland dweller to litter the landscape. She then introduces our hero to “the fine-ass ladies”—two explosive-stuffed rabbits named Mushy Snugglebites and Felicia Sexopants—who can help them with a major heist.
As juvenile as that description is, I wish I could tell you that Eli Roth’s Borderlands starts by directly copying an iconic scene from the Borderlands 2 game that introduces the ever-chaotic and maniacally performed Tiny Tina in an act of cartoonish violence. At least that would show that, like the games in the series, the film had some semblance of a personality, even if it’s a 4chan anon’s idea of one. And that would at least be...

The highly anticipated Borderlands movie is facing an uphill battle to win over audiences, according to early critical reactions. test screenings and preview reviews have been overwhelmingly negative for the video game adaptation starring Cate Blanchett and Kevin Hart.
Based on the blockbuster Borderlands video game franchise known for its over-the-top action and signature art style, the R-rated film underwent reshoots in January led by director Tim Miller after original helmer Eli Roth completed principal photography in 2021. However, critics say these changes were unable to remedy major issues with an uninspired script and characters lacking the chemistry found in the popular games.
One Twitter critic called the movie a “visually repulsive dud” that abandons the mayhem and imagination beloved by gamers. While performances from Blanchett as Lilith and young star Ariana Greenblatt’s Tiny Tina earned some praise, most agreed they weren’t enough to save a film with disjointed...

The Xbox 360 era was a golden age for Xbox gamers, with countless amazing titles, and even more amazing expansions that made these legendary games even better.
But with the Xbox 360 marketplace now closed down, many fantastic Xbox 360 Dlc packs are slipping into the shadows, a few which haven’t been remastered along with their original Xbox games, and might not get the recognition they deserve.
The Hidden Dlc Gems of the Xbox 360 Era
The Xbox 360 had a lot of DLCs that enhanced gaming experiences beyond their base games. Many gamers might have overlooked these additions, focusing solely on the base games.
These DLCs not only extended the lifespan of the games but also offered fresh adventures, perspectives, and deeper dives into beloved game worlds. As the marketplace has shut down, it’s the perfect time to look back and appreciate them.

The ‘Borderlands’ movie trailer has finally dropped and it’s everything fans of the video game could hope for. Directed by Eli Roth, this film brings to life the chaotic world of Pandora with a mix of action, humor, and a dash of the unexpected. The trailer gives us a peek at the star-studded cast, including Cate Blanchett as Lilith, Kevin Hart as Roland, and Jack Black lending his voice to the quirky robot Claptrap.
What stands out in the trailer is the vibrant portrayal of Pandora. From alien monsters to the infamous bandits, the film promises a wild ride. The chemistry between the characters, especially with the addition of Ariana Greenblatt’s Tiny Tina and Jamie Lee Curtis’s Tannis, hints at a film that’s not just about the action but the relationships between these unlikely heroes.

What is the point of a video game expansion? Too often, the point is to make some extra money without having to make an entirely new game. That’s not necessarily a sin, but the worst video game Dlc expansions too often showcase the worst of gaming. Yet, the best video game Dlc expansions show all the things that concept should be.
The best Dlc expansions do more than give us an excuse to dive back into the games we already own. They revive, reinvigorate, and, in some cases, even redeem their base experiences. We all benefit from learning from our best and worst moments. Well, that’s also what the greatest expansions do. They benefit from the knowledge of seeing what came before and realizing how much more there still is to do.

Netflix has released its weekly global top 10 chart for the week of June 5, showing how movies and television series have been doing on the streamer.

Read on for this week’s analysis.

A significant time into Tin & Tina, a heavily pregnant Lola is woken up by a gush of wind, seemingly in the way any religious horror films go. We assume she’s been possessed, or worse, something’s wrong with her baby, especially seeing her terribly pale face, but in reality, it’s just all her hair that sheds as if someone has run a pair of scissors through it in random motion. It’s the camera movement that lingers in the air outside of the home in the night and rushes inside at the break of day, as though it were a ghost’s point of view, you know? But that’s when you realize wholly that there is nothing supernatural in Tin & Tina, as it tries to step away from the stereotypical exorcisms that we’ve seen in countless religious horror films, but it’s stunted at...

The joke is on me for thinking Tin & Tina would be another trashy, puke-worthy Netflix rom-com, thanks to its title. Sure, that particular genre has its audience, but in the case of Tin & Tina, I’m very happy to have been proven wrong after going through two anxiety-inducing, nightmarish hours—exactly the kind of thing I would expect from a good horror movie. Director Rubin Stein’s expansion of his 2013 short of the same name is a fascinating watch that keeps you on the edge of your seat for most of its runtime, with the anticipation of something waiting just around the corner. Funnily enough, the main premise of Tin & Tina, i.e., a childless couple adopting two orphan kids, can very well be the bedrock of a wholesome family drama, but making a psychological horror out of it has to be way more fun, I would say.

The eerie orphan twins in Rubin Stein’s Tin & Tina are ardent believers of miracles. And while that may not have been a premeditated metaphor for the film, Stein’s psychological thriller with unsettling echoes of horror is nothing short of a miracle in itself. Raining on the parched terrains of a genre that hasn’t seen ingenuity or a true sense of effort in quite a while, Tin & Tina‘s recycled trope paints masterpieces in each organic frame. For an admirer of body horror such as yours truly to not miss it for a second and to allow the wave of the spine-chilling atmospheric dread to take over–’Tin & Tina’ has to be one of the finest manifestations of a cryptic strain of fear. And what better use of my time, now that I’ll be stewing in the lingering aftereffect of the film anyway, than to...

Prolific Andalusian production company La Claqueta has tapped award-winning screenwriter-producer Alberto Marini to direct rural thriller “Últimos días de caza” (“Last Days of Hunting.”)
Penned by José Cabeza, co-scribe on 2016’s “7 Years,” Netflix first Spanish original movie, “Last Days of Hunting” has a completed screenplay and has initiated financing.
The aim is to close the financing phase during this year and begin shooting second quarter 2024, probably in northern Spain.
