Borderlands players - what is your opinion about the new movie trailer?

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.

Looks pretty awful to me. Wild casting choices. I like Jack Black but he doesn’t read right as Claptrap to me at all. Roland is a gruff tough guy, not whatever Hart is going to do here. And Tina here comes off as a scared child instead of the absolute firebrand she ought to be.
They had some weird moments where Tina reverted back to a flanderized version of herself depicted from the POV of someone who doesn't understand nuance in character, then she was just the typical pissed off modern Hollywood teen archetype.
Claptrap should just be the BL2 VA if possible, no need to keep casting screen actors in VA roles.
Eddings, I think was his name, had a falling out with Gearbox so there's no way he would be cast as the voice. I missed him as claptrap in the games he's not.
