I mean that is pretty par for the course with borderlands. They had a whole sequence in Borderlands 2 where Hammerlock gets annoyed and calls some monster he wants to name “Bonerfart” and then the mission objective is “kill 5 bonerfarts.” so yeah the sequence is a little juvenile/over the top, but it’s nothing we haven’t seen in borderlands 100 times. That’s pretty much the entire shtick. Juvenile violence and “lol random!!11!!!”

I say this as somebody who has many great memories of playing borderlands 1 and 2. Though, I just don’t think this is going to be good no matter how they spin it. It’s not a setting I ever wanted to see turned into film to begin with.
