I was like 12 when they announced they were making it. I'm 23 now.(edited)

Just when Sonic, Mario and FNAF come along to make you think "huh, maybe we're in an era of decent video game movies" in comes Minecraft

nooooooooooo duuuuude 💀 not like this

no wonder it was on the shelf for so freaking long(edited)

i was sure the movie would never ACTUALLY happen

should've never taken it OFF the shelf 😭

I bet Mojang only asked Warner Bros. to take it off the shelf because they NOTICED how Sonic, Mario and FNAF had really successful movies and they thought they could be a part of it 💀(edited)

oh lord... here we go...

if you hadn't been exposed to anybody else's opinions

(and i haven't as far as youtubers or anything)(edited)

you'd look at that trailer

and be like

"This does NOT look good"

but I'm not here to argue, I found a lot of people who agree in another server

so now they are disappointed

I've seen worse

i forgot the movie existed

last i remembered hearing about it i was like 13

anyway people are gonna rightfully dislike parts of this movie and you can't really dismiss that

they're sadly valid

realistically itll probably be a perfectly serviceable 7/10 family flick

and then people will leave the theatres like "i think i had a good time? it wasnt that bad?"

and then jump to defend it because everyone else is clowning on it

I just expect it to be REALISTICALLY bad, not atrociously humorously bad

but anyway I've said my piece on the movie haha. Now I guess we wait for it to come out.

Then there are like braches that are like ⅑th of a normal block

Not high as some "woah, this is world breaking" just like, I want something that seems like a mix between a game and a movie

Idk, like if we were seen an animated version of Minecraft dungeons

But dark as story mode

i'm fine lol

if you asked someone 5 days ago if they'd be okay with a live action Minecraft film, they'd laugh at you "what's that even mean? just like, a survival film with creepers and diamonds?" if you asked the same person today, they'd have to scramble some defense for why it might not be that bad, because uhoh, now it actually happened its just the unthinkable and I can't help but feel like "this is real???"(edited)

If I watch this film, it will probably be years after it comes out, and it WILL be piracy, just like I did with the Sonic and Mario movies. I didn't get caught up in the excitement of those coming out either.(edited)

I mainly feel bad for the people needing to spend time in their lifespan creating this film, especially because I ALREADY know I won't be giving them any of my money. :/(edited)

and I'm not about to give them my money because I feel bad either. Hollywood is not a charity case.(edited)

Just recently we got the Mario movie and it was a miracle that that came out because how Nintendo is

It's just alive

as a zelda fangirl i would just fucking despise a grimdark zelda movie

i have elder scrolls for my realistic gritty fantasy

i want zelda to be as simple as it is

majora's mask is a cute comical farce

it has dark undertones but its still quite light-hearted

there's a scene where a girl fake dies

but she didnt really die

so like

I get it, I don't deserve to be called a Zelda enjoyer

The only thing I wonder is... Link could have a voice in the movie unless we see the "legend of Zelda" like Zelda being the one saving her world after Link had failed

live action video game movies for games with non-realistic graphics is a mistake unless they make it happen in the real world (ie sonic)

dark zelda would be cool, a new story could definitely be taken more serious than the games historically have and im not sure its fair to say zelda should just be simple. Making the dark undertones in zelda more prominent with the same weird mythos that some of the darker games have had would be cool i have to agree with Kuroko on this one

This blind Jack Black hype just makes me wish Marvel movies kept their China-only scenes because I could purposefully demonstrate my point with them, but nobody even knows about the scenes I'm talking about. there's a few Marvel movies that have additional scenes in their Chinese version this additional scene is usually a Chinese actor that the Chinese internet REALLY LIKES making a cameo, and they just remove those cameos from the American cut because nobody is going to understand. It would have the opposite reaction to what the Chinese audience would have. "Who is this guy? Am I being marketed to?" but if a Marvel movie had one of those scenes where the cameo guy they encounter is JACK BLACK, everyone would be like "haha its our boy Jack, he shows up everywhere" which is exactly how the Chinese audience reacts to their weird actor cameo scenes it is 1:1 the exact same thing in different cultures, and people who are like "Yooo Jack's gonna be in this movie? We gotta see it!!" have been sold to.(edited)
