The Minecraft Movie

[@bobbycasey7176]

It's already Jumanji. "Four people, all with different lives that somehow/someway came together, are sucked into a game world where they must fight and learn to survive. They are helped by someone who's been stuck in the world for so long they've basically mastered the life in the game. Eventually, at the end of the adventure where all of the characters have grown passed their personal issues finally return home, however a character has fallen in love with the game world so heavily that they have a tearful goodbye and separate, leaving another mentor like character in the game for the next set of adventurers in the inevitable sequel that blows like a whale" I guarantee it will follow this beat by beat as it already does from the trailer.

[@ixeliema]

I wish they'd committed to either pure animation or CGI. You could maybe start with the characters in the real world as real people, and then when they arrive in Minecraft, they could swap to the Minecraft body type and absolutely freak out about it...but honestly this is messy. ETA: Yes y'all I'm aware it would be a lot like Jumanji. My primary issue is that this movie's plot already *is* a lot like Jumanji, so in doing this, at least the visuals would be more consistent rather than reminding me constantly that these people were greenscreened into places that aren't even a little bit realistic. I can't see them doing this film in this style in any way that is less cursed looking, so I think it'd honestly be really funny if the whole point of doing it in this style would be to poke a bit of fun at how nonsensical Minecraft is as a game. Make the characters massive and weird looking. Make fun of how big blocks are and how big your inventory is. Make a jab at how there's lore but none of it means anything really. But I know that's not going to be what we get. And even if it was, I'd still be asking "who asked for a minecraft movie, especially after Minecraft story mode?" (I also edited some of the grammar bc I wrote this after a long work day and wasn't braining right.)

I genuinely don’t even know where to start.

People have been wondering if they can bully Warner Bros the same way they bullied Paramount into changing Sonic’s design, but I don’t think that would work. At least with Sonic, all they had to do was replace one character model with a vastly improved version without changing much of the animation. However, with Minecraft, the main problem is the entire art style of the movie. This movie is doomed to bomb at the box office.

[@EAFFAEEAF]

Honestly, if they just replaced the live actors with blocky CG models to match the rest of the movie, that would make it 1000% better. It should just be an animated movie. In terms of the animation style, I think Sparklez is right about "getting used to it," but I don't think that's possible when contrasted against the live actors. Unless the story is "real people entered a video game," which would explain the contrast, but I don't think it's going to be _that_ meta.

Remember The Pixels Movie? (2015) I know it wasnt the best that we created but still mixing those arcade game like CGI with real actors looked better because there was CGI on real world and not opposite. We are not able to create such realistic CGI in such short time to make People look good in onlt CGI world. Even watching Avatar you can see how there's rarely people on cgi background. Actors of course were but only in scenes where there was fully made room and not cgi like jungle. Or if in Jugle they were in mechs.

It's the lighting, they film the actors with lighting from all angles because they have no idea how the background is going to look yet and it ends up making the whole thing look terrible because the actors don't look like they are a part of the world behind them. The human eye is incredibly perceptible (especially on other humans!) to weird lighting as we see what realistic lighting looks like all day every day.

Yes, this trailer has MANY issues, but I think what I'm most disappointed about is the mood of the trailer, and thus the movie. Minecraft has always had this sort of solemness to it. Unless you're playing multiplayer, you're ALONE. And that's scary for some people, and comforting for others (hence the rise of Herobrine-style creepypastas). I really wish they would lean more into this route, as opposed to the "MINECRAFT IS WEIRD" route. Like, make the movie _just_ about Steve and Alex trying to survive together in the Overworld, and focus more on their relationship and the progress they make, ending with a dragon fight. That's just my opinion though, let me know what you guys think

[@Cody_Ramer]

Yea this just seems like a typical mediocre modern movie.

[@itskitt3237]

I agree completely. They didn’t make Minecraft, they made another jumanji movie in a style that they think resembles Minecraft

[@EmperorPenguin1217]

I said it in another comment but I came up with an idea where Steve and Alex build and maintain a city, and the Arch-Illager comes by and gives them some kind of ultimatum to give up their city, or else he'd take it by force. Which leads both of them to have to explore to get better materials to protect their city to stave off the invasion and they also have to prevent mass panic of the villagers or something.

[@StuffandThings_]

To me, the real "Minecraft movie" is all the scrappy, fan made films like the Minecraftian or whatnot from back in the day, or perhaps Minecraft Story Mode. I mean even some lore servers like Mianite or the stories told though music videos like Fallen Kingdom could fill that role. Some corporate crap doesn't represent the true community nature of Minecraft, or at least the Minecraft we all knew and loved from the golden age. The saddest part is apparently there was an earlier iteration under Rob McElhenney (which Antvenom talked about) which actually sounded like it was going to be pretty good and unique. This seems like meme fuel at best...

[@thisismychannel4535]

This movie is a lazy adaptation, should’ve been animated and it seems like a good guy vs bad guy movie like and other lazily written generic movie. What this movie should’ve been about is what Minecraft was originally about, the first few days you played, it was quiet, c418’s music was playing in the background, you discovered new items and built weird structures, you explored and found new places like villages,creepy caves, the nether and eventually the End. This movie should’ve had one main character, maybe like an internal study on the life of Steve and his surroundings, similar to that of Castaway, which would’ve been easy as hell to do. But they decided to throw in a bunch of actors for easy humor writing choices. It’s whatever, minecraft the game is still good. (I could still be wrong), but we as an audience are often disappointed nowadays.

[@StuffandThings_]

Antvenom has a video on it, and apparently there was an earlier iteration under Rob McElhenney which actually sounded really promising. But no, we get this dumpsterfire...
