From Cormac McCarthy's The Road to Mad Max, artists have often used a post-armageddon world to explore humankind's nature. While interactive entertainment is still an emergent medium, the Fallout series has used an end of the world scenario to probe into existential matters typically left untouched in gaming. Recent release Borderlands, may not ponder on the savage nature of man, but its bleak setting makes a remarkable backdrop first-person shooter/role playing game hybrid. The title also toys with a player's drive for self-preservation, consistently pitting gamers against a parade of fearsome opponents.

Take-Two admits the Borderlands movie was disappointing, though it still contributed to the game catalog's sales.
"we don’t really need to break out the contribution from the film because while it was economically positive"
Come on, there was nothing positive about it, it literally bled money...not really economically.
No there was not. The same way there was no Dragon Ball live action movie, nor an Avatar the Last Airbender live action movie :)
So the movie cost 155 million to produce and another 30 million dollars to promote . Borderlands movie brought in around 31 million worldwide . So basically, the Borderlands movie was a 154 million commercial for Borderlands video game franchise.
