The Minecraft Movie Trailer looks silly

- My hot take - I think this movie will be fun. It looks silly, and pretty absurd at certain points, but I think watching it will be a good time. My extra hot take is that the things people are laughing about (Jack Black being in just a sweater, the sheeps goofy face, the mobs having wild teeth) are actually all the things that make this fever dream hilarious.

I had to unlist this video due to a brief copyright dispute (the video got automatically claimed, I disputed, then my dispute got rejected), but it's all resolved now, and I've been told that it's been fixed across the board.
Now nobody can accuse of me being a paid shill. In fact, I briefly paid them 😅
lmao, come back to rewatch after this was resolved. glad its sorted
@@ThatMumboJumbo bruh I was wondering why it wasn’t showing up in my subscriptions feed lol
Copyright system broken as ever, glad it worked out for you this time
instead of being a paid shill, you're a paying shill! (just kidding)
That's gotta be the most screwed up way to prove you're not a shill lol. You gave them positive feedback and they STILL shot you in the back LMAO

Evil Jack Black clone that appears in the climax of the movie: "My name is Brine, but I am no hero"
“Im the hero of the Brine. You can call me herobrine”
"Okay guys, It's time to Mine. And Craft. Minecraft."

@Assassin-k2kyou are disgusting and need to be banned from every platform that exists. @TH-cam, GET THIS DUDE BANNED!
you're thinking way too epicly given what we see in the trailer. herobrine is a blessing that i'm not counting on to any extent
no
It’s always weird to remember Mumbo isn’t wearing a suit 24/7 and his mustache isn’t bushy and dark
Mumbai Jamboree 😮
Yes he does. This guy is clearly and actor that Mumbo voices over. Yeh. Definitely
it is kinda strange. Like i hear his voice and i just imagine his minecraft skin. But then i see him and im like “Oh yeah, he’s a REAL person” 😂😂
I see his mouth moving and I have to tell myself "Yes the man on the screen is Mumbo and it is him speaking, it is not a paid actor to lipsync with a Mumbo recording, stop being weird about it."
Are we just ignoring the fact he doesn’t have black hair?
Fun fact, 7 months ago the minecrafft movie writers said that they wanted to avoid an "ugly sonic situation" it's hilarious how they did just that
During an interview with The Salt Lake Tribune (via Eurogamer) director Jared Hess explained that he's trying to “avoid an 'Ugly Sonic' situation." “I think anybody that does any IP, they just want to avoid an 'Ugly Sonic' situation," he said. “I just can't disappoint the 10-year-olds, or they're going to murder us
lmfao

@@samanthastaley8836 Definitely not the dragon, at least I don't think. The piglins are invading the overworld, so it looks more like they're linking it with Legends, which I'm not sure how to feel about
Classic video game movie..........
2:28 but Mumbo, we *wanted* a movie about Minecraft that was taken seriously.
I think that’s the huge disconnect between the makers of the movie and the audience. The average age of a Minecraft player is 24 (according to Mojang in an article written in April) and they’ve made a movie that has a visual (and let’s face it, most likely humour) style made to appeal to a *much* younger audience.
That sheep is pure troll bait and they had to have known that. They really had to.
did we really? I honestly can't even fathom what a serious minecraft movie would look like, I mean the movie to me looks like just another corporate kids movie with bad humour and writing but I don't really know what else they would have done with it
@@Voxalyst off the top of my head?
- the story of the first builders (the ones who built all the temples in game)
- the story of the pillagers, how did they turn evil? Was there a civil war?
- who built the end? Who are the enderman?
- Alex and the rest of the defaults are people from the Minecraft world, how do they get good at building/mining/crafting?
- the story of the woodland mansions, either their creation or someone (from in universe) discovering one and having to clear it out. This one could even be a little spooky!
- a villager decides they don’t want to be a pacifist anymore, do they become a player avatar, or are they on a dark slide towards pillager-dom?
- herobrine. Legit just make the copy pasta real
- anything, and I mean ANYTHING that wasn’t a freaking Isekai. We’ve seen the “oh no, suddenly I’m in a video game!” Schtick so many times. Give us In Universe Lore.
Heck, I just saw someone redo the exact same trailer just in game, and it’s already 1000% better than the slop we were served if they want to stick to the Isekai angle or go SMP interactions style.
@@Voxalyst i think even the most basic concept EVER of showing the game itself as a movie (a character waking up in a strange world with nothing, exploring and finding new places, friends & eventually the nether, a fortress & beating the ender dragon) would've been a fun adventure movie and fresher than this concept
Yes, we as adults want a serious movie, but I don't think that this is a disconnect between the audience and the makers, since we are not the target audience. The audience is the much more numerous ammount of children that are playing the game but they are less vocal on the internet.
@@qwinlyn I do like your story Ideas, but I don't think they would have worked for marketing, since they are very specific, so that minecraft nerds would love to get more insight for these topics, but for attracting a larger audience (even some who haven't played the game) a more broad concept seems more fitting. (for example for a movie about the Pillagers, it wouldn't be so fitting to include the iconic Creepers, since Creepers are not hostile towards Pillagers. But creapers are important for marketing)
I can’t wait for Jason Mamoa’s character to be named Bryan and turn evil. The dialogue would be fire
“YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE A HERO,BRYAN”
“…Say that again”
Jason Momoa's character already has a name, which is Garrett.

@@personafanboy1609seems like video game movies produced in the 2020s are deadset on having a character named Garret. (FNaF)
@@stevenhumenny816 Lol
I won't lie I wish I could have the same level of optimism, but I feel like the writing of the movie is going to be extremely insincere and insecure about itself
Same bro why do writers have to make a joke of everything, it's disappointing to see something cherished made into stupid one liners and dumb face reactions
The "I.... am Steve" line alone is already extremely telling.
I don’t think so.
@@Green__ManI agree. I was really hoping for a more serious fully animated film - something set fully within the world of Minecraft rather than Jumanji style
@@GwynnDduAnimated series in making for Netflix
To me it’s not really how it looks, it just feels like yet another
-Group of people goes to another world
-wacky side plots
-defeat bad guy to go home
-end movie in way that prepares for sequel
It feels like a corporate movie that was pushed out to get all the kids who can’t see bad writing to watch it because it’s their favorite game
Yea this pretty much sums it up. Movie has corporate "Lets appeal to the kids these days" written all over it.
Yeah, but so much of anime is that same way and loads of people love anime. Also, Jumanji 1 and 2 were a hit! It just works!!!
I really hope they don't make a sequel :')
they got that Disney logic
Hollywood is in its isekai phase. Like with any genre boom, some example will be good and some less so; let's hope this is one of the better ones.
The movie doesn't look that bad VISUALLY, but the premise just seems like Jumanji with a resource pack.
Nonono. It DOES look that bad. It looks AI generated. The copium people are sniffing is insane. I understand wanting to be positive but they will continue to make slop like this if y'all consooooooom product and get excited for next product.
@@McCaroni_Sup look, the art is divisive, I personally am not sure where I stand on it yet, but it's not as important as the story, and here it just seems like 'we got trapped in the game so we need to get out', uncreative, basic, boring.
First, the real people green screened onto an obviously CGI set is insanely jarring. The CGI itself, while it certainty took skill to make, lacks original/artistic style in my eyes. It looks like the same mass produced graphics I've seen a hundred times, so I certainly think they could have done something way more unique with minecraft's graphics. Frankly, everything about this movie feels like it's just another quick project to make some money off of a well-recognized IP
What exactly about freakishly detailed minecraft sheep with a square body and rounded, real hooves is not that bad
Honestly, Minecraft fits better with that than any other game, but it's been done to death so no one wants to watch it anymore. Sometimes the player dreamed it was other things, in other places. Sometimes these dreams were disturbing.
My main concern is a lot of it being just surface-level stuff instead of being more contemplative, like how the actual game is.
"Sometimes the player dreamed it was a miner, on the surface of a world that was flat and infinite. The sun was a square of white, the days were short, there was much to do, and death was only a temporary inconvenience."
One of my major problems is it looks like they are walking on a green screen and it is all cgi with them placed there
I see a lot of people wishing they leaned in heavier on the cgi, but I sort of feel like I would have preferred more practical effects. The saturation looks really wacky next to the real people
@@OdinOnFire I mean, it kinda makes sense? They are normal people who are in the Minecraft game universe. It's not supposed to look normal.
@@raznaak
But it's also not supposed to look like a puked rainbow.
Everything is so bright and vibrant it's a little uncomfortable to look at.
Bro it’s Minecraft what do you expect
@@OdinOnFire what’s ironic is that a LOT of it was practical, there’s tons of bts stuff where it has painted backgrounds, real physical blocks and trees, etc. I think it’s a lighting / compositing thing that makes the people look so out of place
TL:DW 'I think the movie looks a bit ridiculous, but I'm assuming it's intentional and I think it will be a silly goofy time. Hess has made some iconic absurd films, and this might be one of them.'
yup
Agreed
Ok
i concir
I agree
Sometimes I forget that mumbo isn't a handsome well dressed mustachioed man, rather he's just a handsome man
I was about to be affended (well, not me personally but whatever) until I realized you said yes, he is still handsome😆😆
They had us in the first half, not gonna lie
He has a voice you'd think is from a noble British man who would talk about literature and philosophy
don't disrespect his moustache, he's very proud of it!
@@first-namelast-name I'm sorry, I totally forgot about his beautiful mustache, I just couldn't see it in this video... I may not be worthy of gazing upon it
I mean, I'll give it a shot, but it really doesn't scream.. "Minecraft" it screams "I Don't know Minecraft but have seen some screenshots of the game"
I've never played Minecraft, I literally have zero clue where this will go but of all the things people are complaining about the look isn't as bad as everyones saying when the stock game looks far worse.

@@Scandium_quasar This is an Entertainment News Channel, not a Minecraft channel.
The movie hasn't had enough time in the furnace
It's been in the furnace for more than half a decade, have you heard how many times it was postponed?
@manoloskolosgr the coal wasn't burning that entire time clearly
It could be a good movie, but just the art style along it can not be a good Minecraft movie if you get what I mean…
This movie never should have been put in the furnace. Fundamentally this movie should not exist. Even so, the could have made it good and absolutely chose not to.
It's a tiny teaser.. chill on the judgement.
I’m still confused on why they decided on live action over animation when 99% of the movie is animated anyways
Costs
@@theonebman7581 No. This costs $50 million more than the Mario Movie cost, and looks five times cheaper.
@@theonebman7581huh what do you mean by that the movie seemgly Is gonna be 90% animated so it doesn’t cost much more for it to animated or live action plus the movie wouldn’t have to look so realistic if it was fully animated
It's cheaper, and it's easier to recognize the celebrities they're hiring for name value. So for both, money.
Live action actors I guess. I would probably kill for it to be 2d or at least in the 3d hybrid animation style but that's unrealistic
the trailer gives the vibe : " laughing at the player and his minecraft world" instade of " laughing WITH the player and his minecraft world "
Imagine what a iron golem well look like in this movie that i well not watch it.
But then you fall into the trap of Teen Titans fandom bullying. The audience is supposed to be laughed WITH, not laughed AT
Yep, similar to big bang theory honestly. Not laughing with nerds, but laughing at them instead. You've honestly said it best
@@wanhedasbro2194 i feel like a kinda of horror movie would be more suitable , remembering the first night in the game , the deep cave sounds i dunno
@hitmoh Definitely an interesting idea, would be difficult to pull off with the minecraft art style but would be enjoyable if done right. Honestly though, I've realised that some games are just meant to stay as games and don't need to be movies or TV shows

6:41 The creeper looks like a walking piñata (search your feelings, you know this to be true)! Also, why can piglins suddenly enter the overworld like that without becoming zombified!
Minecraft legends logic
@@SpringBoy1252in Minecraft legends and dungeons it because they carry nether wart which apparently allows them to fight off the zombification
it looks like a plushie to me
I hope you are not talking about the piglins
om gosh you're right, it does give piñata vibes haha
Idk why NO ONE is talking about the fact that the environment they're in doesn't look like actual minecraft-y terrain... Like it's, vaguely blocky, but it doesn't look like it could've been generated in the game
It definitely couldn't been generated in game, but it does look like it could have been generated by... something else...
The design is clearly leaning to those hand crafted minecraft worlds.
also minecraft terraqin generation is ugly and random honestly id be pretty mad if they did those random spikes sticking up out of the ground, but a random floating island or 2 would be pretty cool
Im glad someone else finally said it, it does NOT look like actual minecraft terrain just because its blocky shaped, theres no grid based placement until its convenient for the plot.
Everthing is in blocks but it looks totally weird that they made huge blocks out of it too.
Totally against what Minecraft generation tries to achieve.

Personally, my biggest hang up is why, when you have an art style that is recognized world wide, why make an animated movie that looks like it came from a "we had AI show us what these 15 cartoon characters look like in real life" list?
Bless your optimism, Mumbo. I hope this movie is everything you're hoping for.
I wish they're just committed to CGI. Start with characters in the real world as real people, and when they arrive in Minecraft, they should swap to Minecraft body types, and definitely freak out about it.
I didnt come up with this comment but I thought it was a good idea!
Feels like the Jumanji movies haha

"What are we, some kinda, Minecraft?"
I lost all faith in this film when Rob McElhenney left the project and it got retooled into live-action. This doesn’t feel like a film that’s made for people with a rich, long-time connection to the game, rather that it really just wants to make your uncle laugh because he’s heard of a Creeper before.
Or, hear me out, it’s made for kids. My 8 and 10 year olds play a TON of Minecraft and everything about this trailer had them super pumped and laughing their heads off.
@@JohnFX3 I was gonna say the same thing it is more for kids who play or watch Minecraft. Like they will see this and be pumped for the movie rather than getting into how it looks. A movie which is purely silly rather than a supposed Master piece.
Exactly. It's going to be Jumanji, but bad just like Megamind 2.
@@TheMastermind7259I honestly don’t understand all the negativity. I don’t know what movie you guys were expecting, maybe you all don’t even know what you were expecting, but this seems like a perfectly reasonable approach to making film about a world that inherently can’t be taken seriously. Floating trees.
You're 100% right, it's made for the wide general (young) audience who might have played a bit of minecraft, who know "creepers explode" and "everything's made of blocks". Not made for the small minority of die-hard fans... just like absolutely every movie adaption of an Intellectual Property ever. they want a big audience not the big fans.
Honestly, I'm not too hyped about this. I think going for a live action instead of a fully 3D film isn't the best option, specially seeing how everything seems to struggle to feel "real".
I believe they chose this only because they wanted to have the faces of Jack Black and Jason Momoa (or whoever they could get, really) on screen believing this would draw people in. And I strongly disagree with that decision.
Jack Black voices Bowser on the Super Mario film and it's amazing even though you don't see his face. It actually feels like Bowser. Here... I don't see Steve at all. I'm sorry, I love Jack, he's one of my favourite actors and I bet that he's going to be fenomenal, but when he appears on the trailer I only see him, not Steve. I feel like they didn't even try to characterize him. It looks like they just put a blue shirt on him and said "okay, that's enough, we want people to see Jack Black". He's overshadowing his own character, and that's almost always a bad thing.
And, again, I say this even though I love him as an actor. I love how in the Jumanji movies he plays other people so hard you basicaly feel like you're watching someone else inside his body, which is the whole point of those films. He's amazing. But here I can't see anyone else. He says "I'm Steve" but my mind can only think "no, you're Jack Black".
It may end up being a good film, that's hard to say at this point. I'd be glad to see it succeed and I'd like to watch it and love it. For now, however, I'm skeptical. I'm not going to say it will be a disaster, but I'm not hoping in on the hype train either.
I feel like there’s a very high chance of minecraft TH-camrs appearing in the movie, especially cause Mumbo said he “spent time on set”
he is 100% in it as a cameo, also why he’s gotta save face and convince everyone that the movie doesn’t look as bad as it does- no hate mumbo, get that bag king!!

@@thomasherzog86what a dumb reason to unsub honestly
I just dont understand why everything now has to be a live movie. Like why force this blocky game seem real? It just feels very awkward and forced in some places during the trailer. Why couldn't we just have had an animated film like leggo style?
It was planned as live action from the start in 2014
Yea seriously could easily have just been a animated movie
there's gonna be a separate animated series on netflix tho
Animated or live doesn't matter. Jack black is basically as expressive as a cartoon character. That's not what is going to make this movie shit.
The disney remakes are shit because they changed the script not because they are live action. I actually quite enjoyed the jungle book. What they did with scale really brought in the horror of the jungle for a human child. And king louis' song was still good. They kept the song. But then they decided they had to make changes for the other films.
If people are commenting everywhere that it should be animated they're not going to fix what's actually trash in the production. Who killed roger rabit and those animated x live combos were really well mixed. It's possible to do this well but i basically have zero hope for this thing because it's a script that bounced around for 10 years and is guaranteed to have gone through the hands of every bottom of the barrel writer in Hollywood...
probably atleast a million people told them to make it animated since then@@shrub8644
My problem is the actors. They just casted celebrities to get more money instead of better ones that would fit the roles better
Yep, but what do you expect from licensed garbage?
Still a step up from Borderlands movie though
@@Your-Least-Favorite-Stranger We don't know that... yet.
As far as I'm aware, the only person in the cast who feels gimmicky is Jason Momoa and probably Jennifer Coolidge. Jack Black and Steve Carrell are genuinely good A-list comedic actors, and the other ones aren't super popular celebrities as far as I'm aware.
Exactly. Look, I like Jack Black, but this is a such a strange role for him
I can understand where your opinion comes from. The people making this movie truly worked hard, but if your goal is to have a drink, filling a well with a spoon is not the way to do it. The difficulty of the task shouldn't act as a justification for a bad result, especially when the difficulty is artificially induced.
Just as an olympic runner who shoots himself in the leg is not deserving of any award.
My biggest issue is that it seems to be a standard "real people get transported into a fictional world" movie, which always feels a little lazy when adapting a video game or cartoon IP into live-action. But honestly, I don't know how else you'd adapt Minecraft to live action.
... maybe it should have been an animated film.
Minecraft has a story, also a standard Steve goes on adventure to slay ender dragon would have worked too
Yeah... or maybe they should have had Robin Williams acting in it. (I know he died.) Was just making a Jumanji reference.

Minecraft story mode had good mechanics and graphics while being faithful to the source material but it ironically failed on the story, I get that it's hard to condense the limitless possibilities of Minecraft into a linear progression of gameplay but even so they could have done better
the thing is that gets me is that the style isn't even all that bad like the ghast and piglins for example look amazing but it's the fact they insisted on slapping actual human actors into the mixture that really throws it all off. they do not blend well at all which isn't helped by how so many of the shots just look like they're on a greenscreen which! i know is a case for a lot of movies but it isn't supposed to look as obvious as that 😭i can't understand for the life of me why the went down this direction

Best way to look at the movie is that it's just going to be some silly fun time, it doesn't try to take itself seriously and that's probably for the better

I don't think a comedy was ever going to be right for a movie where minecraft is the subject, Minecraft is too slow and contemplative to work as a comedy without coming off like a middle aged man trying to use slang he heard on Tiktok
“Right” is subjective, this was probably the goal for the movie bc this appeals to people that haven’t played Minecraft or don’t play Minecraft regularly, even though it isn’t as attractive to veteran players.
To be fair, this movie is obviously pandering to minecraft's biggest audience: kids
If you want a Minecraft film that’s kind of slow paced and retrospective, might I recommend Dawn?

@@samlewis6487 It really does look great. Some shots look weird, sure, but I don't know I feel like he's being genuine. If he hadn't thought that, then he could've just not made a video about it. Especially since it's different from his regular content.
They should reshoot the entire thing and make it animated. They didnt even bother to color correct jack blacks hair as he spawns in to remove the green screen green light shining through his hair. For a TRAILER SHOT.
My greatest fear is that this movie isnt going to even be fun bad aside from the designs. I expect the movie itself to be thoroughly boring and uncomfortable to sit through
remember those jumanji movies from a couple years ago? reminds me of that exact feeling of nothingness
WTH do you mean
The designs... do not look fun. They look like Sonic with Teeth super-realistic uncanny valley, honestly seems like its going to be a flop of a movie with the choices its gone for to me.
@@Thomas-sg4izthe one with the rock was at least nice to watch with friends, laugh at the stupid jokes, and turn your brains off. this film, and perhaps i say this because it strayed so far from what i expected and hoped for, but i do not expect it to have that charm. just a boring uninspired carbon copy childrens film set in the minecraft universe
@@Thomas-sg4iz 🤣
It seems cool, but the contrast between the people and the background paired with the mobs is a little too eerie for me to ignore

Honestly, the fact that the director is the same as Napoleon Dynamite explains everything.
It honestly feels like they combined Unreal Engine with Minecraft making it look like a weird mashup pack then dropped in actors, making it look even weirder
How absurd would this movie be
I bet that when you animate it fully with the help of element animations that it will be an absolute hit
Ugh.... idk man it looks awful. It's too uncanny. They are trying to make it look realistic. They should have taken the hint from the Mario movie being full cgi.
Years ago I read a comic from Tomboy comics I think, and it honestly was a good Minecraft story. Just a story set in the world of Minecraft. Better than story mode and whatever this is.
Ye Fr this looks like those rlly realistic resource packs people showed off in 2020
3:55 idk man they didn't even bother to make a correct crafting recipe so far i am pretty worried that this movie wont be good
Why is the crafting recipe a problem when the “flying machines” are ghasts, chains and trapdoors.
Ah yes, "Crafting Raspy"
I feel like the movie being goofy is kind of the point of it
@@happyburger23because crafting is a big part in MineCRAFT
Tf is a raspy
So is this the "Minecraft Movie" or actually just "Minecraft Legends: The Movie" because it really feels more like the latter.
Both games may have Minecraft in the name but they have pretty stark differences.
Yeah I agree, it seems like they're gonna lean more into Legends, maybe to promote it more now that the hype has died off. Maybe they'll add a Jack Black level XD
You're telling me Mumbo, it feels like they just hopped onto the trend and it feels unfinished, that's just Jack Black in a Blue shirt
youre not gonna believe me when i tell you that Steve in actual minecraft is actually just a dude in a blue shirt
well, to be fair, this movie has been developed for years, being cancelled and uncanceled all throughout.
@@grimauc they could've atleast tried to make Jack Black look like Steve but regardless I still have high hopes for the movie
Correction. That’s just Jack Black in *two* blue shirts.
@@grimauc True I just don't think Jack Black is a good fit. They should have at least swapped the roles of Jason Mamoa and Jack Black
I'm gonna keep it real with you Mumbo. I wouldn't even pirate this with a gun to my head.
5:44 i always thought of creepers to be... Crinkly. Like tin foil. Not sure why. Like a weird bag full of explosives.
Pretty sure their design is meant to mirror leaves, so I always imagined them to be kind of like a ghilie suit.
their texture is taken from leaves.@@tobiasbayer4866
I always thought Creepers to have mottled, pockmarked skin with bumps and grooves. Ya know, the whole "Creepers are plants" theory.
Creepers are plants, change my mind.
My biggest problem with the movie is how the characters (The people) look. They look like they were put in after the movie was made. They look out of place from the whole movie. It’s like they wanted to go with realism and animation but couldn’t figure out how to incorporate both in a smooth way.
Another person said this and I couldn’t agree with it more. It looks like this is a Minecraft live video.
3:30 Is the moon big?
moons big.
Does the moon look... big?
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS
Real life people next to these realistic Minecract mobs doesnt look right
Not at all, it’s extremely jarring
it certainly looks interesting though. I'm genuinely excited to see the movie.
I like the stylistic choices they've made, the world looks interesting enough, the ridiculous looking mobs definitely fit the tone they're going for, but the live action people really look out of place and kill the immersion because it makes everything else look very obviously green screened
Ruben died for this

I just think that the weird animation style would work better if it wasn’t directly juxtaposed with actual, live actors
Had a similar reaction to the trailer but... what did Mumbo do to his knuckles? 9:03
He was punching a tree after he lost his stuff
@@LethalG1523ah, you've beaten me to the punch!
Climbing. He’s climbing
his hands punished themselves for thumb shifting?
I was thinking the same thing
1:38 slight????
Yes, slight
Maybe I'm missing something, because I don't see ~any~ disconnect, aside from the actor's outfits standing out from the green grass.
@@VirTaro the blocky look compared to the realistic people makes it look hella uncanny
Mumbo did you punch the rock climbing wall?
yes actually (accidentally)
Or did you get into crack climbing? That looks like a few too many laps on a finger crack. 😂
@@ThatMumboJumbo ouch, been there done that 😭
I...don't know. I just don't know. I mean, the actual Minecraft bits of it looks amazing, but I think I'm with Martyn in feeling like the live actors just...look like they're walking through a green screen, and I wish the whole movie was animated instead of just part of it.
It looks like a children's movie that will be very popular with that specific demographic (7-10 year olds). Like the movie's going to make bank, but most older minecraft fans probably won't enjoy it since they aren't the target audience
I'm split on this. One the one hand, yes it is the minecraft movie, yes parents will buy their kids tickets because they want to see the minecraft movie, and thus the movie will bring in truckloads of cash. But at the same time, will they actually enjoy it? I don't think so. Some small moments like seeing certain mobs on the big screen, maybe, but they will leave the movie theatre either disappointed by the product or mixed.
Think about how kids with an enthousiasm for dinosaurs react to an inaccurate drawing of a stegosaurus, or someone calling a pterodactyl a dinosaur. Yes kids are inexperienced, but they are not stupid. They are some of paleo-art's biggest critics, because dinosaur facts are quite literally almost all they know. Now imagine a kid with that same level of enthousiasm but for minecraft looking at this movie. They would hate it.
Why we are all children at heart..Grandparents are going to be forced to sit through it..😂
i’d bet money that it will be that “watch once and forget” type of movie. i hope for the kids sake it’s at least fun
Honestly at this point minecrafts getting old and Idk if too many kids are playing anymore
The thing is that you can make a real and genuine kids movie. Ghibli, or earlier Disney movies. Avatar (the original show). Things that kids and adults can find profound.
What I don't like is that the trailer does not lead with the story. It doesn't look like it has a coherent vision, instead you get this assortment of random sequences. The characters don't look like they fit in or were thought through at all. I couldn't care less about the animation style, I think all the graphics and textures are perfectly fine. That's not what I am concerned about.
It's hard to tell if it's a fault of the movie or just the trailer, though. Some good movies had terrible trailers.
Its the first thing we are seeing of it when was the last teaser you saw that had any story involved?
I do agree the trailer feels like a random assortment of clips, almost like a short montage. I think they could have set the tone better, as these absurd moments don’t match the fairly ‘vanilla’ trailer style.
It isn't a trailer though. It's merely a teaser. It's likely that an actual trailer will be shown at a later date.
I think teaser trailers are generally to get the vibe across and create intrigue. the official trailer is usually when the story is elaborated on. While it may not be in a good way, the trailer has certainly made me intrigued. I love the look of the sheep and actually like the world alot, but the live action people shoved in looks so bad and unnatural to me. There are so many ways this could be a train wreck, but I'm optimistic. At best I think it will be so bad it's incredible just due to pure entertainment.
6:05 I believe a dev (possibly notch) described the texture of creepers as "dry leaves" which makes sense with what you're saying about camouflage
And crunchy! 😊
My main gripe with the movie is the inconsistency in art style. The gold sword are completely pixelated like the games. The building are made up of perfect squares but have realistic textures. And then the trees and animals are barely Minecraft like at all for a large part, having long thin of center branches on the trees or round and smooth parts on the creatures
Hearing someone who is in cinematography say “I’ll be seeing it in imax, front row” hurts my soul… and my neck 😂😂😂
I'm so used to hearing mumbo as a non omnipotent being that just narrates stuff, it feels like a voice over with his voice when I see him speaking
The movie looks concerning. But one cannot ignore the existence of NAPOLEON DYNAMITE
Napoleon dynamite is peak cinema
The peakest of movies
I really can. I really, really can.
Napoleon dynamite was its own content. This is a live action version of a voxel game. It's no doubt they're making it a movie because its the most popular game in the world, which makes it feel like a money grab more than anything. Honestly, they'd have had a better time if they just stuck with a fully animated movie.
You can be sure to expect at least one reference to Tina.
One thing I don't like is the fact that they used the trope of characters get transported to another world trope. This trope in movies is often used used in movies to introduce an audience to the world without them feeling like they were supposed to know something they don't know about. This worked for the Mario movie because most children watching it didn't grow up playing Mario, and they can get new people into Mario. Meanwhile most children or adults that watch this movie probably know what minecraft is, but I feel like there just doing this trope just to get more people to play minecraft rather than just appease the fans. I would have liked it so much better if the characters started in the minecraft world and stayed there. And they acted like the world is normal to them, they don't have to know a lot they could had just lived comfortably and haven't explored or seen much. I don't want the whole movie to continuously say how weird everything is.
The Minecraft Movie Trailer already took effect with mumbo jumbo being live action
this movie needs more time in the furnace
The worst thing this movie could be is boring. If it’s good, that’s great. If it’s so bad it’s funny, that’s also great.
As long as they stay like Goofy an silly an not take the thing seriously then it be good. Now if they try an be serious it want be good. Sharknado was a goofy movie a. Well it never took it self seriously an was successful as long as this movie goes same then it be good an well jack black in it. Sk probly want take thing seriously that the only way to do this kinda of movie just make a dumb goofy movie that just funny an fun to watch
yeah that's pretty much my thoughts too.
You mean like the borderlands movie? This movie is more than capable of being boring, yes. Hopefully its so bad its good but it isn't looking bright
If a press release says they've reworked the movie, they're almost required to add "removed herobrine", it'd immediately win my respect back lol
I don't know. To fix this they may very well need Herobrine. XD
I’m holding out hope this movie is going to be camp. Like it looks horrible, but I think it’s gonna lean into the horrible-ness and just be unhinged

@@blizzardgaming7070 Is "AI generated" a synonym for "uncanny" nowadays?
@@rallvegdNo, it is equivalent of "knockoff".
@@blizzardgaming7070 No it doesn’t.
The biggest concern I've seen by what they've shown in the trailer is that every single bit of humor they've written into the script is going to have the punchline "haha isn't Minecraft so WEIRD?"
"Floating blocks? Isn't that so WEIRD?"
"Ugly sheep? Isn't that so WEIRD?"
"Punching trees? Isn't that so WEIRD?"
That's not a punchline. That's just an observation, which is not a punchline - unless you think that the observation, and thus the target of said observation, is ITSELF a joke.
It's The Big Bang Theory guide to comedy, but now in Minecraft form.
Is this the way I envisioned "Minecraft - The Feature Film"? No. And up to a point I can understand why people are unhappy with the live action and style. But I also find this trend of trying to cancel a film nobody has seen over 90 seconds of trailer really weird. I for one am at least curious what the plot will be, plus the Piglins and Ghasts looking like creepy claymation is awesome. (Fluffy creepers wouldn't have been my first choice, but it makes some sense with how well they camouflage in grass in the game.) And if it's just another "real people go to the video game world and save it" film, I don't think that's the worst Minecraft film they could have made. Just like Mumbo I am expecting a goofy silly time.
In my mind, the creeper looks more mossy than fluffy, which is bang on for the lore.

I don't think anything can be altered to still have consistency with the script and actor reactions.
This is what it is
I am a bit 50/50 on it.
The landscapes look absolutely insane and I am in love.
The animals and other creatures look a bit odd, but they grew on me. Once we reached the llama, I liked them!
The choice of live action is... the oddest to me though. I can see the story hook with it, but as of now they dont seem to quite fit in visually.
Exactly what I was thinking
This is unironically the most optimistic take I've seen, across the internet, on the movie

@@user-ul8hx5hz6z No one was asking for THIS though. We wanted an ACTUAL Minecraft movie not this AI slop.
Money ig lmao
In response to the beginning part, about not wanting to be too harsh because of who the staff is: I don't think art should be judged by the artist(s). Obviously we can't actually judge much without seeing the full movie, but this teaser has some very worrying things in it. How absurdly backlit all the live-action actors are in every single shot, even when they're FACING each other, is a huge part of why they just LOOK like they're in front of a green screen. They'd look so much better, even with how out-of-place they look in the CGI setting, if they just did better lighting. On top of that, the little dialogue we get to hear is very... not promising. It was VERY little dialogue though, so maybe whoever was responsible for putting the teaser together just chose poorly and the final product won't make me roll my eyes every few minutes?
If this teaser was supposed to instill any excitement or confidence, it's failed pretty spectacularly - and that in itself is not a good sign. The best I'm hoping for right now is that they're seeing the response to the teaser, watching the reaction videos and scouring the comments and threads to take notes. If they're only at a point where they can release a teaser and not even a full-fledged trailer, then hopefully it's not too late for them to implement some changes based on feedback.
the problem is that the animation style doesn’t feel like Minecraft. It’s like one of those 2010 realistic Minecraft texture packs. I’m sure the movie will be pretty average, but I’ll probably like it (I’m biased). can’t wait to show up in a Steve costume to the premiere lol
Yeah, alot of people are saying it looks bad, but I really like the style. I get it's not super-duper-ultra-mega accurate to the game and all, but I think it being a different style than just 64 bits is really nice.
I just hope they don't have the cliché lines like "Uhm, guys... you're gonna wanna see this! 😰" kinda stuff 😅
It feels to me like it'll be a constant stream of the kind of silly and goofy that you'll get tired of within a few minutes
"The Minecraft Movie Trailer looks silly" Shame it doesn't look *FUNNY* though.
It's very telling how little dialog is in this supposed comedy movie
