The embargo for premiere reactions has lifted, and it’s not good news…

    The casting choices are really questionable here. Looks like the casting was done to bring in a generic movie going audience that watches movies based on the cast, but this was only going to succeed by appealing to the actual fan base. Jack Black and Kevin Hart don’t need to be in every movie. I’m surprised Chris Pratt isn’t in this honestly.

      Jack Black is quite fitting with the role but he isn’t the only funni guy around, can even hire the OG VA for claptrap since they just need the voice.

        Probably a good idea not to hire the original voice actor for claptrap… 😅

            Let’s just say David Eddings (the VA) and Randy Pitchford are not on good terms…

              This ^

              I have no doubt that Eddings wouldn’t want to have anything to do with anything remotely close to Pitchford after that kind of treatment. If he did, that’s a toxic as fuck environment to create.
