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.

Who the hell is the random psycho just chilling with the main characters? Did they just add the dude from the game covers to the main cast like he's actually a character?

DLC playable character named Krieg.

Borderlands 2, Krieg was an intriguing character but as a class generally sucked. His ult was a melee only mode which... doesn't mesh with a game about COLLECTING GUNS. They also introduced Gaige. Her class worked better in the game, although very gimicky, lore wise she was basically a more sane Tiny Tina.

Like... genuinely a series or a movie about him sounds cool... but... I don't think they're gonna show him off like that link. How is an internal monologue supposed to work if only one of the 4 hear it? It can't work while sharing a spotlight.

Also I can't remember if it's official or cannon but

spoiler
Krieg is Tiny Tina's dad so...
