Thankfully Nintendo nailed its second outing with the 2023 Super Mario movie, which grossed over $1.3 billion.

Former child star Jonathan Brandis, who committed suicide in 2003, had appeared in several TV shows and movies by the time he was a teen. He became best on the big screen for his leading role in 1991's The Neverending Story 2: The Next Chapter, and on the small screen for two seasons on Steven Spielberg's acclaimed science series, SeaQuest DSV. Brandis was only 27 when he opted to end his life.

The cooperative shooter Helldivers 2 prides itself on being a tough game. It’s got enemies that love to overwhelm players, and the higher the difficulty of the mission, the more heavily armored and massive they are. The recent Escalation of Freedom update has upped the ante with a fresh crop of nightmares to face off against, and there may be none worse than the brutally unfair Rocket Tanks the Automatons have started busting out.

The new Borderlands movie opened to abysmal reviews from fans and critics alike. One big complaint is that the PG-13 film lacks the gore and violence found in the M-rated games. However, according to one person involved in the creation of the live-action adaptation, they filmed plenty of gory moments that didn’t make the final cut.

Sci-fi, perhaps more than any other genre, lends itself to producing cult classics. After all, by definition, the genre deals with speculative and futuristic ideas, meaning that they're always literally ahead of their time. Sometimes, science fiction films wind up being too forward-thinking for contemporary audiences, being dismissed on release only to be hailed as masterpieces decades later.

10 Cult Classic Sci-Fi Movies That Bombed at the Box Office

The numbers are in, revealing that the Borderlands movie’s opening weekend has been a flop, debuting in 4th place behind Twisters. The Borderlands movie made its silver screen debut just days ago and the reactions have not been good. Based on nearly 100 reviews, the movie currently holds a 9% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. That makes it the second worst movie of the year. Based on the audience score of 50%, it’s the third worst movie.

No self-respecting fan of the Borderlands video game franchise should give even two seconds of thought to the question of whether they ought to head to a movie theater this weekend to check out the film. That’s because the newly released adaptation of the beloved video game has something for everyone to hate — we’re talking god-awful CGI, bad writing, actors who are presumably just in it to collect a paycheck, and a knockoff Guardians of the Galaxy vibe that turns the whole thing into a just a sad, unmemorable bore.
