    Not just the costumes. They green screened the fuck out of that scene. Wonder if they shot the whole thing on a sound stage and tried to AI in the entirety of the background? This has all the earmarks of a “Are you piggies willing to pay $20 a ticket for entrance to the slop show?”

      They made the Willy Wonka Meth Lab version of Minecraft?

    Why is it live action? Why does Jason Momoa look like an extra from the Barbie movie? Why does this exist? Just why?

    All I wanted was for 3/4 of the main characters to be normal Minecraft skins, such as the shrimp series of skins, and the 4th to be some horrendous creation that only Satan himself would use on Minecraft. They then proceed to play bedwars with actual 8 year olds and lose.

    Was that too much to ask, Microsoft?!?

    I mean my Minecraft Skin isn’t a normal skin and during early adventure, I slap that on, what I find. Also hats (from a mod).

    Most people are laughing but I think it could get good, if they do it right. They actors need to reflect the wide playerbase. Jason Momoa could be the old school vanilla survival player, that played up to the early release version. The boy could be a modern MP minigame server player. Jack Black could be the Griefer/Anarchie player.

    There is potential to make it good but they could easily screw this up. Minecraft is a game without a story and the only story Minecraft has, is from the players (and viewers of Minecraft YouTubers, without poiting out a specific one, due to obvious regional differences. I mean would you know a German Minecraft YouTuber and get the references?) and their memories. Without that, I don’t see how this can get good.

    I like it. And I can’t wait for it release to massive fan dare and all the haters standing around slack jawed “I don’t get it how can you all like this”.
