Read details on the movie below:
From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures and starring Jason Momoa and Jack Black, A Minecraft Movie, directed by Jared Hess, is the first-ever big screen, live-action adaptation of Minecraft, the best-selling video game of all time.
The film also stars Emma Myers (Wednesday), Oscar nominee Danielle Brooks (The Color Purple), Sebastian Eugene Hansen (Just Mercy, Lisey’s Story), with Jennifer Coolidge.
Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where creativity doesn’t just help you craft, it’s essential to one’s survival! Four misfits—Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Momoa), Henry (Hansen), Natalie (Myers) and Dawn (Brooks)—find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they’ll have to master this world (and protect it from evil things like Piglins and Zombies, too) while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative… the very skills they need to thrive back in the real world.
Oscar nominee Hess (Ninety-Five Senses, Nacho Libre) directed, with Roy Lee, Jon Berg, Mary Parent, Cale Boyter, Jason Momoa, Jill Messick, Torfi Frans Olafsson and Vu Bui producing, and Todd Hallowell, Kayleen Walters, Brian Mendoza, Jonathan Spaihts, Pete Chiappetta, Andrew Lary and Anthony Tittanegro executive producing.
The director’s creative team behind the camera includes BAFTA-nominated director of photography Enrique Chediak (127 Hours, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts), Oscar-winning production designer Grant Major (The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, The Meg), editor James Thomas (Pokemon: Detective Pikachu, the Borat films), Oscar-winning VFX supervisor Dan Lemmon (The Jungle Book, The Batman), and costume designer Amanda Neale (The Meg, What We Do in the Shadows). Casting is by Rachel Tenner. The music supervisors are Gabe Hilfer and Karyn Rachtman, and the music is by Mark Mothersbaugh (Thor: Ragnarok, the LEGO movies).

AI made this movie didn't it
BIG flop incoming
Tripe humor and lame ass stereotypes. Hopefully it didn't have a huge budget.
Preliminary budget of $150M
Ouch.
I could be wrong, but I think this will be one that continuously reminds us that it doesn't take itself seriously by making the dialogue a stream of lame jokes.
Not sure about this one...
I'm not really the target audience for this, but yikes it looks horrendous
This looks like the "it's Minecraft but somewhat realistic" joke that has been done to death since Minecraft launched.
Get help.
The guy in the pink jacket? Jason Momoa? I mean, at what point is even gender ideology? What if he's just gay in the movie, and that's it? You realize gay people exist, right? Might be odd if his role in the movie is to force people to be homosexual or wear pink jackets I guess. Maybe he just likes a pink jacket, lmao. Either way, you're pretty odd.
Not at all, my dude. You honestly make no sense, I've never put pronouns in my bio, I can link all of my social media accounts if you need to see it. "Doubt anyone can tell it's Jason Momoa", even though I recognized it was Jason Momoa right away, lmfao. You're freaking out this bad over a pink piece of apparel. How do you make it through life, bro? I mean, you're judging the movie this hard over Jason Momoa wearing a pink jacket. The dude didn't even do anything really besides craft something instantly for about a second. You're a little ridiculous, honestly.
The fuck? You have issues, my guy. Or just a troll, one. No way you're actually serious. And if you are then you're just mentally unstable at this point.
