I didn’t know they’d made a movie. Should I be sorry that I now know they did? More importantly, do I have the inner strength to resist watching a movie from my favorite video game franchise, despite the warnings?
It honestly baffles me how, after decades of experience, Hollywood still doesn’t understand what’s necessary to properly execute a successful franchise with a large fan base. When they’re spending millions of dollars in a film, you’d think they’d be smarter about choosing producers, directors, and writers. I saw the criticism of some of the casting choices, but rarely are the actors the problem.
I’m not a Halo fan, and while I thought the series had some weak areas, I didn’t think it was horrible. And it seemed to be getting better.
It had almost nothing to do with the original game that I played, but I can live with that.
There’s “bad” when the story diverges from the original so much, it’s only irritating that they’re trying to capitalize on a title; I’d put Halo in this category. I thought the writing and acting was pretty good, and the FX were decent.
Then there’s “bad” where the characters are unlikeable with poorly written dialogue, like Foundation. In the latter case, it’s especially depressing because the design was gorgeous, there were some outstanding actors, and the source material had such potential to be a great series.
It sounds as if Borderlands was just an all-around shit-show, without even the few redeeming qualities Foundation had.
I’ll never forgive Apple for what they did to Foundation. I literally canceled Apple TV because of it.

Be strong and don’t watch it. It will genuinely damage your appreciation of the games.
OK, thank you.

As a FORMER Halo fan, just don’t.
