Even if it’s faithful, the humor from the games is dated so much that only diehards will like it. If it’s not faithful, diehards will hate it.
It’s almost guaranteed to be bad by huge portions of people that will watch it

It’s not even the humour, the thing is just miscast so hard I’ve never seen before.

Jack Black seems to be a good fit

Not a bad fit, but why not the original voice actor? That’s what a lot of people want to see. These VAs do amazing work and their faces aren’t on screen

there was a whole pile of shit happening between gearbox and the original claptrap.

As for the current(? no idea, havn’t played anything after pre-sequal) claptrap, they want star power, which is why the mario movie cast had none of the current voice actors for any of the characters.

I get it, but as a fan of Mario, would you rather watch the movie with the va or Pratt?
I’m 100℅ va, but I may be weird

I’m explaining the answer to your question, not saying the reasoning is good or bad.
