Tenacious D died for this

Two predictions:

  1. This will cost upwards of $300mil to make

  2. It will make $1bil+ because Minecraft is the best selling game of all time by far and every single child even remotely aware of it will want to go see it

My kid watched the trailer and said it looked cursed.

They honestly picked some weird and kinda creepy designs for the mobs

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago

They will see the thing and they will clap.

This is (no pun intended) groundbreakingly ugly. Is the in world universe literally called the uncanny valley.

Also really sucks that apparently jack black is speedrunning killing his popularity. Weird to see somebody spend decades to become universally loved to seemingly callously try8ng to cash that check for all it's worth in as short a time frame as possible.

"Can't you see you're not making Minecraft Movie better, you're just making Jack Black worse."

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

I would think you wouldn't want the public opinion of you to be "he's in this movie so this movie must be hot fucking garbage" but he's got about a hundred million more dollars than me so wtf do I know.

When story mode came out on Netflix as a choose your own story thing, I thought it was actually pretty good. Not great, but good. I watched it with my kids and we watched it over and over again. Then it disappeared and there's no way to find it?!

Was it making way for this monstrosity?

Poor Jason Momoa... He must really need the money, or else he could be doing something else more dignified. Like giving handjobs in a Denny's parking lot.

Helmed by the director of Napoleon Dynamite no less!

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I liked Napoleon Dynamite and I still think this is boring shit. i-think-that

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago

I shouldn't have clicked that link; now everything I search for is front-loaded with Minecraft movie shit, even on DuckDuckGo. no-mouth-must-scream

[–] Josephine_Spiro@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

Gotta love how every sucessful game now has to have a shitry movie adaptation because of the lustfor profit

Borderlands movie vs Minecraft movie.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago

The Minecraft movie will win, if only because its nostalgia is still fresh enough to sell.

[–] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

According to the pattern established by Sonic and Mario movies this is the ragebait "shitty on purpose" trailer and they'll "listen to the fans" and fix it up before it's released and its gonna do just alright in the movies.

[–] Ericthescruffy@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Bad take. They didn't fix anything about the Mario movie and the ugly sonic glow up is still genuinely one of the most insane course corrections in movie history. Genuinely people don't grasp how insane that whole saga was and the idea that it was bad intentionally is nonsense.

[–] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Maybe, to be fair i dont really care and thats just how i saw it from afar, thx for the correction

Was really hoping jack black was gonna say "I... am Notch!"

Hollywood only knows to make one kind of slop anymore.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What if nostalgia bait with nostalgia song cover with nostalgia celebrities in it? capitalist-laugh brrrrrrrrrrrr

Producers were probably old fucks.

[–] Imnecomrade@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This trailer shows how laughably out of touch the rich boomer fucks are.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

I got a bad feeling this one will pay off for them.

Years back, millennials clapped like seals for Reddit the Movie, I mean Ready Player One. I expect the same for zoomers and this shit.

[–] ihaveibs@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

Movies have gotten so bad and simultaneously showings of indie movies, classics, etc. have gone way down since the pandemic, at least in my town

[–] Ericthescruffy@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Never forget: we lost tenacious d for this.
