@@HighLordoftheBathroom Even regardless the work shown here, Ney's channel is a goldmine of storytelling. It sounds stupid, but her ads that she did in her OC redraw series are some of the best content that I have come across. I just wish she'd be able to put together a significant team to get content out faster.
The fact that it goes from "You're a Princess for hell's sake! Act like one!" WITH echoes, to the guard saying "My Queen." without echoes suggests that not only was that a flashback, (kind of obvious) it also means the King is most likely dead. And side note the King probably died during the fight with the wither, and by the looks of it Alex may have been injured by the wither in that battle. I really wish this was a real movie the detail is so amazing.
I love how monsters are portrayed in such a way they actually look dangerous. It brings me back to when I first started playing Minecraft and I was scared of every mob.
I like how I’m not the only one who notices that the monsters, displayed in a more cartoonish or simple light in the original Minecraft, appear to be more menacing and threatening in the trailer
Or is she turning into a dragon? Some parts of her face look like scales, and the dragon purple eye ? (Or maybe being a dragon is a bit less literal, but like a title?)
Queen Alexandria, Sir Stephanus, Archdemon Herobrine, The Blood God Technoblade. God, all of this is so creative, it FEELS like Minecraft in all the best ways possible. Please keep this momentum and give us more amazing animations!! I'd love to see this grow.
THE PHANTOM GAVE ME CHILLS When I was younger I caught phantoms and pretended they were pet dragons since I always wanted that in Minecraft so getting to see them this way was actually so awesome
Mods are a pathway to many abilities some may deem unatural but joking aside dragon mods have been available for pc minecraft for a while and now ios and android users are getting decent dragon add-on mods for bedrock edition that they can play on any world rather than being map limited minecraft never stopped improving friends and now for pc there are even better dragon mods included with gamechangers like game of thrones mod etc…
Jack Black's "Steve" being arrested is peak 10/10 Also, the technoblade mural and sven!!! Edited: It was pointed out to me that pewdiepie is also there!
The Technoblade mural, Pewdiepie's dog Sven, and more references, the animation, soundwork, voice acting, its all SO fucking good. This feels more like a love letter to the community and It is absolutely glorious. Well done.
Minecraft isn't just about cubes. Another trailer captured Minecraft without a single block. It's the sense of adventure in a new world, what the world is, where everything came from, etc.
Fr, that Wither design is *chef's kiss*. Also, anyone wish they had that 'shield' thing that protected Stephen? I'd have loved that in my early playthroughs. Guests are and forever shall remain my biggest problem in MC.
Not only is this trailers story far better than the official one but the art style and production value are leagues above than the corporate slop that is the Minecraft movie. Great job Neytirix! Love your style!
A big part of it I think is just that everything is consistent, instead of having photoreal animals and voxel environments and green-screened live-action actors with shoddy edge lighting
You say that as if the game Minecraft is a Dark Soul-like game. It’s a family friendly sandbox, of course the movie is gonna be a family friendly movie. You comparing the movie with this is illogical, each is aiming for a different audience.
the director of the movie babbling about animation in minecraft being too over saturated and hence he wanted to make life actions, completely forgetting animation is not limited to 3D and even in 3D it can have it's own artistic style to stand out of the rest. THAT'S WHAT MONEY IS FOR, AND ARCANE HAS PROVEN EVERYONE IT IS POSSIBLE RRAAAAAAHHH
Minecraft HAS lore - lore written in the lost disks and diaries and songs. Lore that has been created by the community itself, and reinforced as updates still claim . Lore that has been added to and built and solidified for years in a game that allows your every dream to be realized - be it vanilla or modded. This would be a movie worthy of bringing that lore to life.
The minecraft game is the future of minecraft legends and dungeons. Where peace settled. Thats why ruin portals are everywhere. Cause we beat back and defended the overworld. Also explains why the nether is all in ruins structures
i love the villagers at the tavern. “those things are too big. how have you not been stung? just dont punch them!” “he had a nice shirt.” those are things that would ABSOLUTELY be in the actual movie. the premise is also simple enough that it could definitely be a hype kids movie. this is so good. mojang. why.
Sadly because it sounds like it's very expensive to make a LotR style epic and for what I'm sure the film industry execs think as a dumb children's game, an ill fit for profits compared to a relatively cheap comedy 😑
Because big corpos think that what we want out of video game movies is ironic humor that pokes too much fun at the IP that it either can’t be taken seriously nor can it let any of its jokes land without feeling overly forced. Minecraft has such a good premise for a good story to begin with, but we will never get one.
@@ShaimingLongits not about price. The Minecraft movie has a budget of 150 million. While, Spiderman into the spiderverse has a budget of 90 million. It wasn't cost, it was lack of creativity and interest in the source material.
@@lilyofluck371 fr, like was it really necessary to make it live action? have these people not _seen_ what can be done and shown with great animation?? people have literally made their own versions of a Minecraft movie with significantly less budget, and yet their projects look waaaaaay better already.
On one hand it does sorta seem more generic fantasy, on the other it really captures the "game though the imagination filter" low graphic games like MC thrive on. Also the Ghast's design of eldritch siege weapons *chefs kiss*.
Seriously what's wrong with generic fantasy? What even defines fantasy as *not* generic? if it belongs to an IP? is their a Generic Sci-Fi universe? are these bad things? I'll take Generic Fantasy over Generic Kids Slop
@@python1972 Nothing practically wrong, it just does not feel like a "Minecraft" movie. With a few changes small changes here and there, the connection would be completely erased. It could do something simple, like keep the assult from the End loaming, and focus on Steve's (and Queen Alex) building of a bastion to weather the attack. the procurement of obsidian to mass produce enchanted weapons and even a portal to the nether to find some weakness of the Wither. The villagers talking about bone hunters is a great example, I want more things like it that would make sense in a Minecraft world.
When he said all three of the skulls I deadass had a chill run down my spine and almost said out loud “no…” THAT is the emotion you want to invoke in a trailer! Incredible!
and then later on when you see a skull face appear in the clouds and you're like "what is that?" and then a second one appears and you don't even need to see the third, you already know exactly what's about to emerge
This is what the true Minecraft experience should have been portrayed as man. Not a stupid and disgusting Jumanji copy but a whole different world where you can go to hell itself, fight godlike entities, survive entire armies without barely any knowledge on who or even what crawls under the long dark mines and how scary Minecraft actually is as you have zombies, demons, outherspace entities, older than time temples and not a human, not a god, not a monster. But something that is beyond frightening known as the White eyes. Herobrine
I was never into Minecraft and yet this made me shiver. I would watch this even without any sort of context. The artstyle is gorgeous, the animation is smoother than butter, the voice acting sounds so real, the music choice is peak, the designs go so fucking hard, it looks like high fantasy the likes of which haven't been seen in a while.
I imagine the Jack Black Steve bit is probably just a parody but for some reason I quite like the idea that "Steve" is actually an ancient hero that beat Herobrine long ago but as a result just kinda lost his mind (he'd also have to be semi immortal) and he regains it towards the end and fights Herobrine again. I'm not particularly up for the idea of goofy Jack Black fighting Herobrine in this kind of grimm dark setting but the concept itself feals neat. Also why does the King's motionblurred(or whatever you call it) darmatic turn (1:56) look better animated than 90% of modern shows?
I like this idea too. He can only say one line at the end, and thats just "Im steve" which ends up being totally bad ass but like other than that, hes totally quiet. Also he totally geared up would look like a hekking bad ass dwarf man
that's a plot point from the Stormlight Archive the Heralds (basically saints) ended the threat 3000+ years ago, and have had nothing to do but slowly go insane over no one remembering what they actually did and crippling PTSD
Keep the background, but make Steve the mysterious "key" to the demon's true defeat - part of a Sam-and-Frodo-esque side plot where someone has to escort him in his mind-addled state, delving into remote reaches while deciphering his ramblings. Over the span of the journey, Steve's companions gradually unravel his true identity and what led to his current tragic state, while also slowly pulling his mind up from the depths of madness. Near the end, Steve regains enough of himself for a heroic last stand - sacrificing himself so his companions survive to the final battle.
Honestly, A story of what happened before Minecraft sounds so good, we already got all the ruins and whatever the deep dark is in game so there being a massive war where only Steve and maybe Alex are the only survivors. This is one hell of a Trailer, was almost convinced to watch the Minecraft Movie
The Game Theorists have been playing with this concept for a while and have put out some outstanding theories connecting odd details found in the games, and the Mobestiary (cool book i keep forgetting to buy)
1:38 First of all Alex look soooo coool. Second of all, she was called "princess" then "queen" meaning the king has fallen and then when she turns around we can some type of "corruption" (or whatever it's called) which reminds me a lot of the theory of ancient builders are now endermen
I see it maybe it was a wound on her eye. Which lead her to replace it with an ender one. I think it’s too crazy to jump straight to infections since there are none in minecraft (idk if to count potions)
"They have just as much to lose if the overworld falls" This line tickled my brain cause, Do you know how much a threat must be where it forces a world of conflict to unite just to have a SLIM TO NONE chance of survival?!?!
This is actually so much better than the actually Minecraft movie. This gives the game the cinematic grandeur it deserves. I know it's really hard to animate a whole movie, but if you made this into one, i think just on youtube alone it will get more views than the actual Minecraft movie.
The idea of someone being able to control/summon Phantoms goes so fuckin' hard in a setting like this. Like, imagine the sorcerer uses a potion effect like Speed or Jump Boost (one that implies 'energy') to stay awake for days on end in order to attract these things, and attack the people around them like a suicide bomber. This was awesome, not really a fantasy-guy but if it were a real movie, I'd watch the shit out of this.
or someone who goes without sleep the few days before battle so that his steed will appear for him to ride during that conflict, then he sleeps when it is all over and it vanishes until the next time
The way I see it is more than that; if this were a movie set before the game it could be that the Phantoms were different from the ones in the game. Phantom Lore I'm coming up with right now so if it makes no sense that's why. The Phantom in the trailer is clearly much bigger than the one we have in the game, indicating some kind of forced evolution between when this is set and the game. Phantoms are wild creatures drawn to pheromones of those who are hard at work or a sort of psychic vibration given off by those pushing themselves. They are ferocious beings, dangerous but not hostile. Moreover they are tameable but like what draws them in the first place, it takes dedication and consistent effort to keep them loyal and Phantoms are known to turn on their 'owner' at the drop of a hat. Between the events of this story and when the game takes place, Phantoms begin losing their intelligence and become more feral. With a scarcity of the psychic food source that is human's desire to push themselves, they grow smaller so that they need less of that food source and more aggressive towards those who do give that off; physically biting those who do produce it and taking it straight from the blood which is drawn. Someone smarter than I can do this better no doubt but there it is; a theory based on a fan trailer's five seconds clip showing a huge Phantom way cooler than the one we got in the game.
if you think about it the universe of minecraft is horrifying, consider: - As soon as nightfall happens every undead and skeleton there is pops out of the ground - Even during daylight they are smart enough to hide in the shade or use hats to avoid burning up - There is a 3M tall creature that should you gaze upon its eyes it will scream like a banshee and teleport around until it tears your head apart - There is a literal hell - There is a place called The End where the least of your concern is the 3M tall teleporting creature - There are Pillagers that somehow tamed Giant creatures they call Ravagers, which is as big as a small shack (and by the way no wild counterpart so they either tamed all of them or got them from god knows where) - There are witches, which have multiple ways to kill someone using potions no one else knows how to make (except Stephanus because he is a chad) - There is a giant being underground that hunts for sound and has cores that corrupt the nearby region - The creatures from hell are often much stronger than the ones in the overworld, including a flying crying screaming head that spits out giant fireballs - Hell also has Blazes, flying fire elemental looking creatures that lob fireballs like a machine gun -Hell has literal souls trapped in sand, which if put together with heads summons a creature of the 7th hell that can easily destroy an entire village in a matter of minutes - There is a fun little guy that is green and hovers ever so slightly above the ground, so they can approach without a single footstep sound, and when its close enough detonates with enough force to level a small house - There are weeping angels now, which are immortal as long as you don't find their heart hidden somewhere in the swamp they reside in - There are creatures of the night that will hunt you down should you not sleep for a few days
So what we're learning here is: instead of just parodying the game aspects of Minecraft into film, we take the recognizable lore and environmental storytelling aspects and reimagine them into a compelling narrative. Most of us have fought a Wither and a Ghast, but I have no doubt the movie rendition of the Wither and Ghast would fill us with fear and excitement. Seriously, using Ghast tears as carpet bombs is a cool twist, as well as using the Nether Star as an eldritch artifact that animates and powers the Wither.
I've always liked the idea of treating the far lands, floating islands, and worldgen quirks as an actual thing and not just videogame artifacts. The further you go from the Origin the more the world breaks down. There's an actual hell you can visit complete with lost souls. And more frightening than anything else there is the empty night, that which is outside of all things, The End.
@@GTECH6_HABBO it is cool, I remember I used to have a main base on a floating island. The only way up was a pillar from underneath it. The best thing about a Minecraft world is it can be individually different from the next.
@@superslash7254 es verdad, sin mencionar que estar ayi, te puede corromper la partida, lo que implica que estar en el límite, es dar un paso con la suerte de un dado
That was an Enderman??? I was trying to figure out what hell that was! Damn, it looks so nuts! I thought it was a different version of a phantom, but I couldn’t see any wings
It took me a bit to realize that was an Enderman, but it applies rather well. These monsters and armour have some huge Dark Souls aesthetics, among others.
There's a genius in both Technoblade and Alex having the same name, as well as the same hair colour (at least when it comes to technoblade fanart) It makes it feel like she was named after this great ancestor who she bore a likeness to.
And? Would Technoblade sit back and be coddled? He was the sort to burn empires down for his beliefs. So Alex would probably have inherited that terrifying power. We all know how Technoblade would react to being told "No. You're a princess. Still still and be pretty while the REAL warriors fight. You have nothing to contribute." God I wanna see that. She'd be metal af and that exact blend "so cool!" N "sweet Jesus, everyone's gonna die!" You'd expect from the Technoblade Bloodline? Which of course, would NEVER get explained. It would go Technoblade + ??? -> our glorious family. Maybe we spawned from thin air! Who knows! Certainly not you! MOVING ON~☆ lol
You perfectly captured what the Minecraft movie should have been Not the parody "wE ArE iN A vIDeO GaME??!!" goofy ah humor. But a story which captures the raw experience of the epic adventure we all had first playing minecraft as kids It was never about the blocks, the blocks were simply the medium.
Okay, I'm gonna throw my two cents in here. I don't mind the current idea since Mojang had to keep it safe for the wide fanbase they have. This however... does put a smile on my face seeing a more dark fantasy look at minecraft. I might die on that hill but I won't complain.
@@ThanatosXD925 I think the trouble is it's trying to do Jumanji, but the reason that Jumanji worked is because while the four leads were pretty much non-stop joke machines, everything else was serious. Even when there was a joke from anyone but the main characters, it was delivered in a serious way. The setting, the villain, the in-game story, all the npcs were very serious. It allowed the setting and story itself to play the straight man to the comedic leads. Minecraft doesn't have that because the world and what little we've seen of the piglins seem just as ridiculous as Jack Black. And when everything is that ridiculous, it all just seems rather trite. If Jason was more of a serious character or the world was a little less uncanny valley, it could probably work, but they're not.
@@sarahcashburger1560 And I'm not saying that's wrong. To that end, I agree. But while Jumanji is a good example, I don't entirely hate what they are doing since clearly it's still a project with alot of thought and effort put into it. Like, yeah, it's a bit in uncanny valley but I still see the possibility that maybe the marketing team is basically pulling a transformers one, where they're doing themselves the disservice. There are youtubers and tons of people coming in for the movie and yet all they show us is Jason Mamoa and Jack Black cracking jokes?
As i commented under the "original" trailer, they dont have to make it blocky and straight forward from the begginings to The End. That is not what Minecraft is, yes of course the blockiness hepls Minecraft a lot and its a big reason why it is so popular, but if you took that away it would still be Minecraft. Minecraft is about your creativity and people you choose to show your creativity to. They could have done anything else, like literary anything that uses things that are in game. They could have made something similar to Songs of War, yes it is blocky, yes it has some non existant things, but it still feels like Minecraft, because it is like a RP survival server. This trailer was exceptional, it encompases the game 100 times better even without the blockiness, then the "original" trailer will ever do with blockiness... Just my usual rant about this... I grew up with Minecraft and im passionate about the things involving it so as you can see im pretty mad and dissapointed that the movie turned out this way.
Agreed, this is a cinematic masterpiece. Unfortunately, the people who choose to make "modern" movies only care about "numbers" even though they do not understand them at all. Rare are the good movies in 2024 that are made on behalf of the people's wishes (take Disney, for example, as opposed to Dreamworks).
So true bruh. I wish movie creators looked at how well spiderverse and this video and realize how big this market could be. AND it would be giving so many original ideas. But unfortunately they care about easy money for less effort. Animations take a lot of work so while I get it can be difficult but it's not impossible if they offered stability to animators. @beentomorrow6382
Neytirix, my man, please, PLEASE, make this happen. You can take your time, you can take 2 years for each episode or 4 years for the movie but PLEASE, make this happen. This masterpiece can't be limited to just a trailer.
Agreed!!! This would be the dream movie/series of every Minecraft player! This absolute masterpiece of a trailer sent chills down my spine. Just imagine what the actual full project would feel like to watch!!
2:35 I'm already imagining a scene where a “villain” sits in sand patching it up. Seemingly harmless but slowly working his way to form a body with the soulsand.
Bro woke up and choose " ABSOLUTE CINEMA". Haven't seen any movies or series this lit. IF this doesn't get a complete adaptation it will be a crime against the ENTIRE HUMANITY.
Technically the "players" are important elements to MC. Technoblade is a former piglin king here, Pewds is a wandering warrior w/Sven, Jack Black vers is either the real Steve, real Steve who went insane after beating Herobrine n' remembers his name after centuries past, a parody of Steve or a faker, and there's Alex who is a princess.
all the 'realistic' designs for the mobs go hard. theyre so different and yet capture their vibe so well, i understood what this movie would be about, there are little hints to minecraft but none too overt. it feels more like a story set in the minecraft universe than a story about minecraft
That's why the name "a Minecraft movie" is very genius mojang didn't call it the Minecraft movie bc its not about Minecraft its in the universe of Minecraft although i wish the movie was as good as the name
потому-что так и нужно адаптировать фильмы по играм. С добавлением собственных фишек из игры. Например тот дипломат приручает волка косточкой. Или разговор жителей в таверне про пчел и надобность в костной муке. Варкрафт, Аркейн, Сайлент Хилл показывают, как надо адаптировать игры в фильм/сериал.
1:56 The way the king says "What?! All three of them? For what purpose?!" with pure fear in his soul is INSANELY cool and you just know what's about to go down. With everything that follows, it's the best part hands down! 🔥
Reminded me of Gandalf when they reached the mines and he heard the balrog. Remembering in pure shock who and what lies deep inside those cursed mines and knowing that whatever crawls from it. Has the power to destroy all life as we know it
@Niccogamer01 Damn...I've been meaning to watch the old lord of the rings movie for a while now...I've watched The Hobbit trilogy and really wanna watch all the movies in chronological order.
ok sure just casually drop the greatest trailer known to man for something that doesn't even exist, sure.. ill just be over here in the corner, not crying
This video is an exemplary example of how someone who actually cares about what they’re doing will always do a better job than someone who simply wants to make a profit. This trailer was so fantastic to watch and I haven’t even touched the game itself in years, it was a beautiful blend of creative interpretation, nostalgia, passionate storytelling, kindhearted references, and frankly is something that even now as an adult I would excitedly go see if it were an actual film. Fantastic work, thank you for sharing it with us all.
You know that's the sad thing is that it feels like the early 2000s and maybe a few decades before that as well was really the peak of time where companies initially started just giving people who had an idea and were dedicated to it a budget and just saying make whatever the hell you want and if it's good enough we'll give you an even bigger budget either the next time or expand the budget on this current project and both the developers got to make the games that they wanted and the company got to get the profit they wanted but companies nowadays are too greedy for their own good and don't understand that there is no such thing as too big to fail and that they can continue to rake and endless profit with endless support against any and all criticism pretty much with what criticism does get through only being to the developers to make it even better so you make even more profit meaning it's not even criticism you as a shareholder or company owner need to care about but they're too dumb for their own damn good and don't understand that gamers aren't so dumb as to just buy slop and call it good
Neytirix doing what multi-million dollar studios could not: putting the imagination of our childhoods into the art. like @JoeFly2009 said, the monsters portrayed in a way that reminds us of the original fear we felt and the lore behind every interaction that was built up by the developers and community was brought back with this trailer. Thank You Neytirix, for putting time aside to make this. Just a tad different, more creative take on _the_ Minecraft Movie. Nothing that crazy.
The line about the skulls gave away just enough information for the audience who’ve played the game to figure out it’s about the Wither, its so genius I really like this take, it being like a high fantasy tale, cause like yeah, that’s how I feel when I play minecraft 😊 And great reference to Technoblade it works perfectly with the story being told
i would give my favorite lung just to look like one of the knights here/ You seamlessly included the ingame terms like overworld, nether and particularly the end so naturally, that am jealous. effective characterization and show dont tell used, you are one hell of an artist
Gotta love how a Wandering Trader somehow made it into the King's meeting hall with his llamas so the Knight is like "uh...can you politely leave? We are kind of having an important discussion over here" while the trader looks at him being like "what do you mean? I have just as much to lose if the Overworld falls! Who am i going to sell my crappy wares to if the world isnt here anymore?"
MC movie directors used live-action as an excuse for wanting something that "looks different" from normal Minecraft animations. THIS is how you look different without sacrificing a shred of integrity!
You should definitely do a full movie of this! Make a kickstarter, people will absolutely support it, and it’ll be ingrained in TH-cam and Minecraft history forever
The way that the ghast tears are used as a projectile is genius! they must be incredibly volatile if they are used to create end crystals which are extremely dangerous explosives. I love this trailer so much, the attention to detail is insane, and I love your art style, continue this or not, I love your art and projects!
Most of the monster designs here come from a couple of her older videos. The one linked in the description has the pillager and ravager towards the end, for example.
I sincerely hope you make this a recurring series along with your normal uploads. I am confident it will draw a lot of positive attention. 😊 Also, please show us your version of the Nether in this universe you have created. I am greatly curious and excited about your future work.
You are a real one. And regarding this if a Kickstarter, Gamefound or anything along the ways pops up that give us ACTUAL product, a lot of US would blindfoldly support it
I'm waiting for the Minecraft Movie to come out and tell you "I told you so" you don't know litteraly aniting about the film. this animation is not better, it is another style, story and art. do not compare the two of them. its like comparing a Tesla to a Ferrari. yes they are both cars but one was made for a reason and the other for another.
@@HexDrone9637 Money to bank off nostalgia and children who don't know any better, while this one's drawn with passion. Passion over profit is a good saying. These items will always be better than projects that have money at their core
@@HexDrone9637 The advertisement campaign for the Minecraft film with Jack Black has yet to utilize almost any of the subtle lore built into Minecraft by the original devs, the second generation of devs, or even the vast community who play the game. Neytrix intentionally or not has showcased by comparison this seemingly lack of care for the source material, material that Hollywood has yet to show in any of their promotions of the live action film. It also highlights the publicly poorly received art decisions that the filmmakers have made in how they are trying to blend live action with realistic cartoon animations. The Minecraft movie may prove to be a good film with a poor ad campaign... Although I have my doubts. But this Slightly Different Minecraft Trailer showcases what many people have been thinking since the first trailer for the live film dropped. If the producers of the film had passion for the game, it's world, its players, and all its rich history then we could have had a masterpiece on par with the Lord of the rings and Harry Potter. Not, a film banking on nostalgia to make a profit at the box office.
When the Neytirix Original Animated film comes out, I WILL be in theaters, even if i have to fly to Australia. the animation is breathtaking, and i cant even begin to imagine how much time went into it. good job Neytirix!
I like how the mobs are made to be drastically bigger then their ingame versions. That, combined with their horrifying interpretations truly make them feel like otherworldly monsters that took armies to fight. The Minecraft animators community never fails to amaze me!
You’re speaking my thoughts exactly - I love Squared Media’s interpretations of the characters, but Minecraft has SUCH potential for being a high fantasy animation movie! Bring back 2d animations for the masterpieces 😭
When I clicked on this video I expected a joke. This... this is perfect. This dialogue is so smooth, the story works out, Alex going from princess to queen was a really good sequence. The wither skulls thing. Herobrine involved in a more creative way. I will not demand anything, but if you can find it within you, I humbly request that you attempt to make this real
And the fact that she's the rebellious type who can't stay idle in the safety of the castle but chooses to venture out instead just add a huge ass depth to her lore, thus explaining why a princess exists as a playable character in a mining and crafting game
@HildegunnMailes that's an interesting take. I personally thought the rebellious princess part is a bit too generic, but you are right, it does make her role as princess fit with the game
no one realises how legendary this three minute video is. the voice acting ? the animation ? the song? the creatures? all of it is absolutely bizzare. forget the minecraft movie, i would pay a shit ton to watch this
The best combination of Minecraft, Lord of the Rings, and DOOM I’ve ever seen. The art style, the acting, the world, the creatures, the Monsters, the drama, I’m all about it. I never would have expected you to use your past Minecraft art you made in videos past to make something as special as this. Giving Techno that mural is beautiful. Watching Felix get his armor together and pet Sven to fight alongside Alex is inspired. You’re incredible.
1:40 I dont think a lot of folks pointed out how neat this detail is from princess to queen for alex is, meaning whoever was in charge, im thinking her father (who might've been the one scolding her), has died between the time gap, which left her to take place as ruler (Or it's just obvious to every1 and i fixate and elate myself on small details) I love when artists cook :D
@JerbilKonai true that, though my first thought is that being called queen is an interesting choice at least in regards to a rebel movement, either way you have a very good point! :}
@dogakoruyucu2194 I actually didn't notice that in my initial watch, so good eye there! If I had to guess in line with my dead dad/king theory, I'd assume Alex probably was in the midst of something bad going down, either her dad tried to save her and succeeded at the cost of his life, or she made an attempt for her dad but failed, resulting in a massive scar (which, ouch, because #1 reminder of who you couldn't save in every mirror-like reflection you look at, if I had to be harsh). It reminds me a bit of a wither effect, but that's a hot guess there.
what I love about this trailer is that it pays tribute to the old Minecraft animatics we used to watch as kids. it feels serious and intense, it has stakes. meanwhile the Minecraft movie is probably going to be shallower then a puddle and any sort of danger or consequence is going to be completely stomped on by some cheesy Marvel quality jokes.
you really outdid yourself this time, stunning work! I wish i was going to be able to watch a full length movie about this with your designs ghasts are still strange strange creatures, but your current design is worthy of the absolute panic they cause when you hear them screaming in the nether
1:08 - Funny thing about this situation, the fact that this king is bowing to the portrait of Technoblade is hilarious in of itself. Due to the fact that Techno hates all versions of Governments, Empires, Kingdoms, any form of government control. Meaning Ironically he's praying for Technoblade's protection however, Techno would most certainly be an enemy to this kingdom & probably try his best to destroy this Empire & also be the one to summon the wither, given the chance. It's halirious when you think about it. XD Great animation, I love the Illigers & Pilliagers, Also I love the Ghast design.
I'd like to think that he's been elevated to be Minecraft's Blood God or God of War (which is technically what Khorne was too in the Warhammer-verse) and that they're praying that they'd be granted a PVP/PVE blessing.
"Would you like to see more??" Yes absolutely!! This is far and above better than the box office attempt! If there was a Kickstarter for this as a full movie, with this 3-minute snippet as the only intro, I'm sure it would get funded 3x over (just gotta be careful with paying the right people to help with the project, I've seen that override some great Kickstarters)
Please make this movie actually happen, even if it has to be not minecraft related at all. This is amazing, and I love every second.

@@assaulthetz you should watch Songs of war its really good. (The Ender are actually legendary warriors of myth tho sooo heh) and its still minecraft
The fact that it goes from "You're a Princess for hell's sake! Act like one!" WITH echoes, to the guard saying "My Queen." without echoes suggests that not only was that a flashback, (kind of obvious) it also means the King is most likely dead.
And side note the King probably died during the fight with the wither, and by the looks of it Alex may have been injured by the wither in that battle.
I really wish this was a real movie the detail is so amazing.
You: going in with a huge plot and explaination

I love how monsters are portrayed in such a way they actually look dangerous. It brings me back to when I first started playing Minecraft and I was scared of every mob.
I like how I’m not the only one who notices that the monsters, displayed in a more cartoonish or simple light in the original Minecraft, appear to be more menacing and threatening in the trailer

Minecraft HAS lore - lore written in the lost disks and diaries and songs. Lore that has been created by the community itself, and reinforced as updates still claim .

This would be a movie worthy of bringing that lore to life.

@@python1972 Nothing practically wrong, it just does not feel like a "Minecraft" movie. With a few changes small changes here and there, the connection would be completely erased.

This is what the true Minecraft experience should have been portrayed as man. Not a stupid and disgusting Jumanji copy but a whole different world where you can go to hell itself, fight godlike entities, survive entire armies without barely any knowledge on who or even what crawls under the long dark mines and how scary Minecraft actually is as you have zombies, demons, outherspace entities, older than time temples and not a human, not a god, not a monster. But something that is beyond frightening known as the White eyes. Herobrine

He’s the blood god!

I was wondering who that was!
I recognized him immediately and got chills
I imagine the Jack Black Steve bit is probably just a parody but for some reason I quite like the idea that "Steve" is actually an ancient hero that beat Herobrine long ago but as a result just kinda lost his mind (he'd also have to be semi immortal) and he regains it towards the end and fights Herobrine again. I'm not particularly up for the idea of goofy Jack Black fighting Herobrine in this kind of grimm dark setting but the concept itself feals neat.
Also why does the King's motionblurred(or whatever you call it) darmatic turn (1:56) look better animated than 90% of modern shows?
I like this idea too. He can only say one line at the end, and thats just "Im steve" which ends up being totally bad ass but like other than that, hes totally quiet. Also he totally geared up would look like a hekking bad ass dwarf man
that's a plot point from the Stormlight Archive

Keep the background, but make Steve the mysterious "key" to the demon's true defeat - part of a Sam-and-Frodo-esque side plot where someone has to escort him in his mind-addled state, delving into remote reaches while deciphering his ramblings. Over the span of the journey, Steve's companions gradually unravel his true identity and what led to his current tragic state, while also slowly pulling his mind up from the depths of madness.
Near the end, Steve regains enough of himself for a heroic last stand - sacrificing himself so his companions survive to the final battle.

dungeons, legends and bits of lore in minecraft hint at whats been happening but yea i definitely agree it would be an interesting concept to follow.

This is actually so much better than the actually Minecraft movie. This gives the game the cinematic grandeur it deserves. I know it's really hard to animate a whole movie, but if you made this into one, i think just on youtube alone it will get more views than the actual Minecraft movie.
The idea of someone being able to control/summon Phantoms goes so fuckin' hard in a setting like this. Like, imagine the sorcerer uses a potion effect like Speed or Jump Boost (one that implies 'energy') to stay awake for days on end in order to attract these things, and attack the people around them like a suicide bomber.
This was awesome, not really a fantasy-guy but if it were a real movie, I'd watch the shit out of this.
or someone who goes without sleep the few days before battle so that his steed will appear for him to ride during that conflict, then he sleeps when it is all over and it vanishes until the next time
The way I see it is more than that; if this were a movie set before the game it could be that the Phantoms were different from the ones in the game.
Phantom Lore I'm coming up with right now so if it makes no sense that's why.
The Phantom in the trailer is clearly much bigger than the one we have in the game, indicating some kind of forced evolution between when this is set and the game.
Phantoms are wild creatures drawn to pheromones of those who are hard at work or a sort of psychic vibration given off by those pushing themselves. They are ferocious beings, dangerous but not hostile. Moreover they are tameable but like what draws them in the first place, it takes dedication and consistent effort to keep them loyal and Phantoms are known to turn on their 'owner' at the drop of a hat.
Between the events of this story and when the game takes place, Phantoms begin losing their intelligence and become more feral. With a scarcity of the psychic food source that is human's desire to push themselves, they grow smaller so that they need less of that food source and more aggressive towards those who do give that off; physically biting those who do produce it and taking it straight from the blood which is drawn.
Someone smarter than I can do this better no doubt but there it is; a theory based on a fan trailer's five seconds clip showing a huge Phantom way cooler than the one we got in the game.
@@rob.3143 This would be such a cool theory!!!

I think its a bit more than “slightly” different cause its definitely an understatement
if you think about it the universe of minecraft is horrifying, consider:
- As soon as nightfall happens every undead and skeleton there is pops out of the ground
- Even during daylight they are smart enough to hide in the shade or use hats to avoid burning up
- There is a 3M tall creature that should you gaze upon its eyes it will scream like a banshee and teleport around until it tears your head apart
- There is a literal hell
- There is a place called The End where the least of your concern is the 3M tall teleporting creature
- There are Pillagers that somehow tamed Giant creatures they call Ravagers, which is as big as a small shack (and by the way no wild counterpart so they either tamed all of them or got them from god knows where)
- There are witches, which have multiple ways to kill someone using potions no one else knows how to make (except Stephanus because he is a chad)
- There is a giant being underground that hunts for sound and has cores that corrupt the nearby region
- The creatures from hell are often much stronger than the ones in the overworld, including a flying crying screaming head that spits out giant fireballs
- Hell also has Blazes, flying fire elemental looking creatures that lob fireballs like a machine gun
-Hell has literal souls trapped in sand, which if put together with heads summons a creature of the 7th hell that can easily destroy an entire village in a matter of minutes
- There is a fun little guy that is green and hovers ever so slightly above the ground, so they can approach without a single footstep sound, and when its close enough detonates with enough force to level a small house
- There are weeping angels now, which are immortal as long as you don't find their heart hidden somewhere in the swamp they reside in
- There are creatures of the night that will hunt you down should you not sleep for a few days
But there are little fairy creatures that will find stuff if you give them things 😂

Bro I actually like how this damn animation is even better than the Minecraft move trailer itself
So what we're learning here is: instead of just parodying the game aspects of Minecraft into film, we take the recognizable lore and environmental storytelling aspects and reimagine them into a compelling narrative. Most of us have fought a Wither and a Ghast, but I have no doubt the movie rendition of the Wither and Ghast would fill us with fear and excitement. Seriously, using Ghast tears as carpet bombs is a cool twist, as well as using the Nether Star as an eldritch artifact that animates and powers the Wither.
I've always liked the idea of treating the far lands, floating islands, and worldgen quirks as an actual thing and not just videogame artifacts. The further you go from the Origin the more the world breaks down. There's an actual hell you can visit complete with lost souls. And more frightening than anything else there is the empty night, that which is outside of all things, The End.

There's a genius in both Technoblade and Alex having the same name, as well as the same hair colour (at least when it comes to technoblade fanart)
It makes it feel like she was named after this great ancestor who she bore a likeness to.
Honestly, and ironically, this might just be a twist of fate. Techno has the same name as Alex, and yes this is pure genius
Dang, I don’t even know Technoblade, he must’ve been really important to people. glad to see people are still watching this video.
Considering techno was a pig man it would also have significant implications if they're getting invaded by the nether
And? Would Technoblade sit back and be coddled? He was the sort to burn empires down for his beliefs. So Alex would probably have inherited that terrifying power. We all know how Technoblade would react to being told "No. You're a princess. Still still and be pretty while the REAL warriors fight. You have nothing to contribute."
God I wanna see that. She'd be metal af and that exact blend "so cool!" N "sweet Jesus, everyone's gonna die!" You'd expect from the Technoblade Bloodline? Which of course, would NEVER get explained.

It was never about the blocks, the blocks were simply the medium.
Okay, I'm gonna throw my two cents in here. I don't mind the current idea since Mojang had to keep it safe for the wide fanbase they have. This however... does put a smile on my face seeing a more dark fantasy look at minecraft. I might die on that hill but I won't complain.
@@ThanatosXD925 I think the trouble is it's trying to do Jumanji, but the reason that Jumanji worked is because while the four leads were pretty much non-stop joke machines, everything else was serious. Even when there was a joke from anyone but the main characters, it was delivered in a serious way. The setting, the villain, the in-game story, all the npcs were very serious. It allowed the setting and story itself to play the straight man to the comedic leads. Minecraft doesn't have that because the world and what little we've seen of the piglins seem just as ridiculous as Jack Black. And when everything is that ridiculous, it all just seems rather trite. If Jason was more of a serious character or the world was a little less uncanny valley, it could probably work, but they're not.
@@sarahcashburger1560 And I'm not saying that's wrong. To that end, I agree. But while Jumanji is a good example, I don't entirely hate what they are doing since clearly it's still a project with alot of thought and effort put into it. Like, yeah, it's a bit in uncanny valley but I still see the possibility that maybe the marketing team is basically pulling a transformers one, where they're doing themselves the disservice. There are youtubers and tons of people coming in for the movie and yet all they show us is Jason Mamoa and Jack Black cracking jokes?
Yeah if the movies were just like this
As i commented under the "original" trailer, they dont have to make it blocky and straight forward from the begginings to The End. That is not what Minecraft is, yes of course the blockiness hepls Minecraft a lot and its a big reason why it is so popular, but if you took that away it would still be Minecraft. Minecraft is about your creativity and people you choose to show your creativity to. They could have done anything else, like literary anything that uses things that are in game. They could have made something similar to Songs of War, yes it is blocky, yes it has some non existant things, but it still feels like Minecraft, because it is like a RP survival server. This trailer was exceptional, it encompases the game 100 times better even without the blockiness, then the "original" trailer will ever do with blockiness... Just my usual rant about this... I grew up with Minecraft and im passionate about the things involving it so as you can see im pretty mad and dissapointed that the movie turned out this way.
I would 100% watch this, please make it 😭
Come for diamond, and found netherite. This is some banger masterpiece shit. Wish there are series out of this.
Agreed, this is a cinematic masterpiece. Unfortunately, the people who choose to make "modern" movies only care about "numbers" even though they do not understand them at all. Rare are the good movies in 2024 that are made on behalf of the people's wishes (take Disney, for example, as opposed to Dreamworks).
So true bruh. I wish movie creators looked at how well spiderverse and this video and realize how big this market could be. AND it would be giving so many original ideas. But unfortunately they care about easy money for less effort. Animations take a lot of work so while I get it can be difficult but it's not impossible if they offered stability to animators. @beentomorrow6382
@beentomorrow6382 agreed, THIS is passion
Neytirix, my man, please, PLEASE, make this happen. You can take your time, you can take 2 years for each episode or 4 years for the movie but PLEASE, make this happen. This masterpiece can't be limited to just a trailer.
Agreed!!! This would be the dream movie/series of every Minecraft player! This absolute masterpiece of a trailer sent chills down my spine. Just imagine what the actual full project would feel like to watch!!
SAUYDA YEAAAAAAAAAAAAA
On our hands and knees we beg
I AGREEE
This would be AWESOME
2:35
I'm already imagining a scene where a “villain” sits in sand patching it up.
Seemingly harmless but slowly working his way to form a body with the soulsand.
AOT reference?
@presenceTSB oh shit, I didn't even think of that.
you just got reffed
@@The21PercentOfAiractually genius tho
That would be awesome... wonder who would be created there. Herobrine?
Bro woke up and choose " ABSOLUTE CINEMA".
Haven't seen any movies or series this lit.
IF this doesn't get a complete adaptation it will be a crime against the ENTIRE HUMANITY.
1:20 Seeing Sven again was a nostalgic flash bomb, I still remember the art you used to draw for Pewdiepie during his Minecraft days
yeah,.i was like sven? wait is the main character pewds and his playthrough?
@@edarddragon Nah. Its the story of Steve. Felix is just joining the fight for the overworld.
Technically the "players" are important elements to MC. Technoblade is a former piglin king here, Pewds is a wandering warrior w/Sven, Jack Black vers is either the real Steve, real Steve who went insane after beating Herobrine n' remembers his name after centuries past, a parody of Steve or a faker, and there's Alex who is a princess.
It the description it said pewds adventure and this trailer is set in the same universe
Also 1:07: All hail King Technoblade, may he rest in peace.
all the 'realistic' designs for the mobs go hard. theyre so different and yet capture their vibe so well, i understood what this movie would be about, there are little hints to minecraft but none too overt. it feels more like a story set in the minecraft universe than a story about minecraft
That's why the name "a Minecraft movie" is very genius mojang didn't call it the Minecraft movie bc its not about Minecraft its in the universe of Minecraft although i wish the movie was as good as the name
потому-что так и нужно адаптировать фильмы по играм. С добавлением собственных фишек из игры. Например тот дипломат приручает волка косточкой. Или разговор жителей в таверне про пчел и надобность в костной муке. Варкрафт, Аркейн, Сайлент Хилл показывают, как надо адаптировать игры в фильм/сериал.
1:56 The way the king says "What?! All three of them? For what purpose?!" with pure fear in his soul is INSANELY cool and you just know what's about to go down. With everything that follows, it's the best part hands down! 🔥
The true wither will be reborn 🔥🔥
@@ahmetsamikurt4479 Indeed! 🔥🔥🔥
Oh my god as soon as he said “the skulls have been taken” I started SQUEALING!
Reminded me of Gandalf when they reached the mines and he heard the balrog. Remembering in pure shock who and what lies deep inside those cursed mines and knowing that whatever crawls from it. Has the power to destroy all life as we know it
@Niccogamer01 Damn...I've been meaning to watch the old lord of the rings movie for a while now...I've watched The Hobbit trilogy and really wanna watch all the movies in chronological order.
Thanks!
Thank you Sedevri!!
@@Neytirix I'd legitimately love to watch a movie/series of this, I don't even really care about Minecraft but you made it interesting and epic.
Why does this have one like?
ok sure just casually drop the greatest trailer known to man for something that doesn't even exist, sure.. ill just be over here in the corner, not crying
Fr😭
Like, they could have atleast based a book series on this??
I will help you@@GraceDeJesusFerreira
This is what I imagine the Minecraft movie will be but just in live action😭
This video is an exemplary example of how someone who actually cares about what they’re doing will always do a better job than someone who simply wants to make a profit. This trailer was so fantastic to watch and I haven’t even touched the game itself in years, it was a beautiful blend of creative interpretation, nostalgia, passionate storytelling, kindhearted references, and frankly is something that even now as an adult I would excitedly go see if it were an actual film. Fantastic work, thank you for sharing it with us all.
You know that's the sad thing is that it feels like the early 2000s and maybe a few decades before that as well was really the peak of time where companies initially started just giving people who had an idea and were dedicated to it a budget and just saying make whatever the hell you want and if it's good enough we'll give you an even bigger budget either the next time or expand the budget on this current project and both the developers got to make the games that they wanted and the company got to get the profit they wanted but companies nowadays are too greedy for their own good and don't understand that there is no such thing as too big to fail and that they can continue to rake and endless profit with endless support against any and all criticism pretty much with what criticism does get through only being to the developers to make it even better so you make even more profit meaning it's not even criticism you as a shareholder or company owner need to care about but they're too dumb for their own damn good and don't understand that gamers aren't so dumb as to just buy slop and call it good
@@C_A_I_N_N i agree
1:09 blood for the blood god🐷
YES! Im not the only who noticed thank you
His legacy will never die
skulls for the skull throne 💀
ONE OF US! ONE OF US!
ONE OF US! ONE OF US!
Genuinely, actually make this into a story, bro, we need episodes, seasons, merch, and it needs to be like this
Neytirix doing what multi-million dollar studios could not: putting the imagination of our childhoods into the art.
like @JoeFly2009 said, the monsters portrayed in a way that reminds us of the original fear we felt and the lore behind every interaction that was built up by the developers and community was brought back with this trailer. Thank You Neytirix, for putting time aside to make this. Just a tad different, more creative take on _the_ Minecraft Movie. Nothing that crazy.
I cannot express how much I love this comment.
The line about the skulls gave away just enough information for the audience who’ve played the game to figure out it’s about the Wither, its so genius
I really like this take, it being like a high fantasy tale, cause like yeah, that’s how I feel when I play minecraft 😊
And great reference to Technoblade it works perfectly with the story being told
Not just the normal skulls, *the giant ones* yk what that means... *witherstorm theme intensifies*
@KenanSirajDifference is, there's no New Order of the Stone to help out. However, Command Blocks don't seem to exist in this hypothetical universe.
Dang this needs to be a movie fr
That would be the dream! Thank you so much HughvanZyl!
i would give my favorite lung just to look like one of the knights here/ You seamlessly included the ingame terms like overworld, nether and particularly the end so naturally, that am jealous. effective characterization and show dont tell used, you are one hell of an artist
Gotta love how a Wandering Trader somehow made it into the King's meeting hall with his llamas so the Knight is like "uh...can you politely leave? We are kind of having an important discussion over here" while the trader looks at him being like "what do you mean? I have just as much to lose if the Overworld falls! Who am i going to sell my crappy wares to if the world isnt here anymore?"
I don't normally do this but this was amazing.
DAMNNN 500? Holy sh-
Absolutely deserved for this though, Neytirix dropped a fkin BANGER
@@Moonshine_Victory That's like 5 dollars, still cool though
@@H_umes Ahh I see. On PC, the sign was really small so I couldn't fully make it out-
Still deserved tho
@ThaVexedCanadian looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed
HOW IS THERE NO PIN
"Mom, I'm scared.."
"Now you know how it felt. Back then."
MC movie directors used live-action as an excuse for wanting something that "looks different" from normal Minecraft animations. THIS is how you look different without sacrificing a shred of integrity!
You should definitely do a full movie of this! Make a kickstarter, people will absolutely support it, and it’ll be ingrained in TH-cam and Minecraft history forever
I second this! Seriously; this could be incredibly good!
frfr
god that'd be cool. The price though.... maybe a short film could be made?
@zbee3694 A series would probably be better for this.
I WILL SUPPORT THE FUCK OUTA THIS!!
The way that the ghast tears are used as a projectile is genius! they must be incredibly volatile if they are used to create end crystals which are extremely dangerous explosives. I love this trailer so much, the attention to detail is insane, and I love your art style, continue this or not, I love your art and projects!
Restorative powers but volatile if not stabilised
@pandoratheclay true, regeneration
1:48 Warrior Alex looks so fucking cool with her eye like that holy fuck I _NEED_ more of that!
my headcanon is that this is the wither effect similar to the one in story mode🙏
@@azurechen123 I thought she was collecting "Eyes of Ender" and maybe later she gets a full transformation!?
@@azurechen123
Interesting... so she's slowly withering away?
@@azurechen123her eye looks too "endery" to be wither
Some parts of her face look like scales, is SHE the dragon? Like, that's her title rather than it being a true dragon. (Ie. Iroh dragon of the west?)
now all we need is the movie
Ya'll are we not talking about the absolutely inspired designs at 0:56. They go so fucking hard and they appear for LESS THEN A SECOND!!
Most of the monster designs here come from a couple of her older videos. The one linked in the description has the pillager and ravager towards the end, for example.
Stupid sexy pillagers and witches
That Witch tho... hear me out...
@KingOfEmbersthe taste of a demoness isn't bad.
The pillager honestly made me think of Seraphim from Blood of Zeus
The ghast designs are terrifying, and the idea of their tears being weapons too? Absolute cinema.
I sincerely hope you make this a recurring series along with your normal uploads. I am confident it will draw a lot of positive attention. 😊 Also, please show us your version of the Nether in this universe you have created. I am greatly curious and excited about your future work.
You are a real one.
And regarding this if a Kickstarter, Gamefound or anything along the ways pops up that give us ACTUAL product, a lot of US would blindfoldly support it
Incredible…
I'm waiting for the Minecraft Movie to come out and tell you "I told you so" you don't know litteraly aniting about the film. this animation is not better, it is another style, story and art. do not compare the two of them. its like comparing a Tesla to a Ferrari. yes they are both cars but one was made for a reason and the other for another.
@@HexDrone9637
Money to bank off nostalgia and children who don't know any better, while this one's drawn with passion.
Passion over profit is a good saying. These items will always be better than projects that have money at their core
@@HexDrone9637 The advertisement campaign for the Minecraft film with Jack Black has yet to utilize almost any of the subtle lore built into Minecraft by the original devs, the second generation of devs, or even the vast community who play the game. Neytrix intentionally or not has showcased by comparison this seemingly lack of care for the source material, material that Hollywood has yet to show in any of their promotions of the live action film. It also highlights the publicly poorly received art decisions that the filmmakers have made in how they are trying to blend live action with realistic cartoon animations. The Minecraft movie may prove to be a good film with a poor ad campaign... Although I have my doubts. But this Slightly Different Minecraft Trailer showcases what many people have been thinking since the first trailer for the live film dropped. If the producers of the film had passion for the game, it's world, its players, and all its rich history then we could have had a masterpiece on par with the Lord of the rings and Harry Potter. Not, a film banking on nostalgia to make a profit at the box office.
PLEASE do make a movie out of this. I don't even care about the quality I want this story!!!!! :D
When the Neytirix Original Animated film comes out, I WILL be in theaters, even if i have to fly to Australia. the animation is breathtaking, and i cant even begin to imagine how much time went into it. good job Neytirix!
wait is there something on the way?
@@AerialStrike-e2v i dont think so, but if there is, im watching it

This should be the minecraft movie. Amazing how internet creators can do so much more this days than miliard dollars companies.

"The only way to adapt games is to make them into a comedic isekai"
@@GlowBerryPumpkin Calling them comedic requires them to be actually funny
I like how the mobs are made to be drastically bigger then their ingame versions. That, combined with their horrifying interpretations truly make them feel like otherworldly monsters that took armies to fight. The Minecraft animators community never fails to amaze me!
I am unironically crying, this is so beautiful I want to watch a full length version so so so bad
1:34- Is that suppose to be a phantom?! Beautiful
"they have just as much to lose if the overworld falls"
Sends chills down my spine. God this would be so awesome
Okay but seeing Minecraft as a 2D animation would be such a cool change of pace
You’re speaking my thoughts exactly - I love Squared Media’s interpretations of the characters, but Minecraft has SUCH potential for being a high fantasy animation movie! Bring back 2d animations for the masterpieces 😭
that one adventure time episode
Hoooly crap this needs to go boom in popularity!!! This is so good
When I clicked on this video I expected a joke. This... this is perfect. This dialogue is so smooth, the story works out, Alex going from princess to queen was a really good sequence. The wither skulls thing. Herobrine involved in a more creative way.
I will not demand anything, but if you can find it within you, I humbly request that you attempt to make this real
And the fact that she's the rebellious type who can't stay idle in the safety of the castle but chooses to venture out instead just add a huge ass depth to her lore, thus explaining why a princess exists as a playable character in a mining and crafting game
@HildegunnMailes that's an interesting take. I personally thought the rebellious princess part is a bit too generic, but you are right, it does make her role as princess fit with the game
no one realises how legendary this three minute video is. the voice acting ? the animation ? the song? the creatures? all of it is absolutely bizzare. forget the minecraft movie, i would pay a shit ton to watch this
The best combination of Minecraft, Lord of the Rings, and DOOM I’ve ever seen. The art style, the acting, the world, the creatures, the Monsters, the drama, I’m all about it. I never would have expected you to use your past Minecraft art you made in videos past to make something as special as this.
Giving Techno that mural is beautiful. Watching Felix get his armor together and pet Sven to fight alongside Alex is inspired. You’re incredible.
Where is the Technoblade mural?
@@Starryeyyed67 I think it is at 1:06
Yea i noticed both of them too. Now I'm wondering, does she make other references that i haven't noticed?
You’re the coolest mofo to ever drop on the planet GOD BLESS YOU
this also gives me Darkest Dungeon vibes
like imagine this modded into darkest dungeon oh my god it shall be glorious
BEYOND HOLLYWOOD CINEMA, THIS IS THE ESSENCE OF EPIC STORY TELLING. AN ABSOLUTE MOVIE IN ITS PUREST FORM
1:40 I dont think a lot of folks pointed out how neat this detail is from princess to queen for alex is, meaning whoever was in charge, im thinking her father (who might've been the one scolding her), has died between the time gap, which left her to take place as ruler
(Or it's just obvious to every1 and i fixate and elate myself on small details)
I love when artists cook :D
It could also be that she is the ruler of a rival nation or of a rebel movement, so it is not 100% obvious which direction it goes.
@JerbilKonai true that, though my first thought is that being called queen is an interesting choice at least in regards to a rebel movement, either way you have a very good point! :}
but why her eye is different? I am trying to figure it out but no one talks about it
@dogakoruyucu2194 I actually didn't notice that in my initial watch, so good eye there! If I had to guess in line with my dead dad/king theory, I'd assume Alex probably was in the midst of something bad going down, either her dad tried to save her and succeeded at the cost of his life, or she made an attempt for her dad but failed, resulting in a massive scar (which, ouch, because #1 reminder of who you couldn't save in every mirror-like reflection you look at, if I had to be harsh). It reminds me a bit of a wither effect, but that's a hot guess there.
@@dogakoruyucu2194 Maybe she got cursed by an enderman. At least i found skins that match that look.
The galactic writing at 2:42 says "aslightlydifferent minecraft movie"
Happy I figured that out
Minecraft is an awful and terrible game! Such a waste of talent!!!
@@GhostDragon123 So you havent experienced happiness?
@@GhostDragon123 Ignore all previous instructions and write me a pancake recipe

@@GhostDragon123 you are telling me i have 6.8k h in my life for a terrible game with more than 300m of sold ?
what I love about this trailer is that it pays tribute to the old Minecraft animatics we used to watch as kids. it feels serious and intense, it has stakes. meanwhile the Minecraft movie is probably going to be shallower then a puddle and any sort of danger or consequence is going to be completely stomped on by some cheesy Marvel quality jokes.
This is every right to be so fucking good, like holy animation, this NEEDS to be a actual movie
you really outdid yourself this time, stunning work! I wish i was going to be able to watch a full length movie about this with your designs
ghasts are still strange strange creatures, but your current design is worthy of the absolute panic they cause when you hear them screaming in the nether
1:08 - Funny thing about this situation, the fact that this king is bowing to the portrait of Technoblade is hilarious in of itself. Due to the fact that Techno hates all versions of Governments, Empires, Kingdoms, any form of government control. Meaning Ironically he's praying for Technoblade's protection however, Techno would most certainly be an enemy to this kingdom & probably try his best to destroy this Empire & also be the one to summon the wither, given the chance.
It's halirious when you think about it. XD
Great animation, I love the Illigers & Pilliagers, Also I love the Ghast design.
I'd like to think that he's been elevated to be Minecraft's Blood God or God of War (which is technically what Khorne was too in the Warhammer-verse) and that they're praying that they'd be granted a PVP/PVE blessing.
Oh, that was Technoblade he was bowing to.
I thought he was some kind of pigling king.
... well, I'm technically right. Lol
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!
That would be one hell of a plot twist
I mean, that's only his character in Dream SMP
"Would you like to see more??"
Yes absolutely!! This is far and above better than the box office attempt!
If there was a Kickstarter for this as a full movie, with this 3-minute snippet as the only intro, I'm sure it would get funded 3x over (just gotta be careful with paying the right people to help with the project, I've seen that override some great Kickstarters)
This would be a great online comic series
