hi hello!!!! super impromptu upload, started the script 4 this shit like 2 days ago LOL - videos are in the process of being worked on in a batch rn aiming for a decent number of consistent uploads this december!!!!!!!!! fight a frog and spin yo beans boys n girls stay tuned
I hate that Hollywood will never let off about their "realistic" over "faithful" approach when visualizing per-existing property, ESPECIALLY IN VIDEOGAME ADAPTATIONS.
I can't believe Mario, the one that came from ILLUMINATION was one of the ones to break this then again I feel like Nintendo was breathing down their necks to make sure nothing got fucked up
I kinda wish animated/live action hybrid movies stuck with the Roger Rabbit/Space Jam style instead of the style that Garfield (2004) introduced to many. At first, the realistic CGI was fine with that movie, Chipmunks, Transformers and Alice in Wonderland. But ever since The Smurfs came out... they kinda went way too far.
It was impossible to translate it into live action any other way, honestly. Man, if only there was this other film medium that Minecraft was perfect for… argh, what was it… ani-something, I think?
Problem is Hollywood hates acknowledging animation of any kind as legitimate artwork, viewing it as basically "cheap kids crap" Except not cheap budget wise because they also don't wanna spend budget on full on animation styling, and instead go with live action instead and use lots of green screen
@ but remember, paramount doomed it by *treating* it like it was a goofy dumb kids movie out of gate. Double dooming it after latter half of bayformers burnt general audiences out in transformers, which also caused Knightverse to flounder with RotB
hey so I noticed that the skin used for the minecraft model in the intro was mostly a skin that I made and posted to planet minecraft 4 years ago, its weird and cool to see it being used, also weird was tho only reason I noticed was because I got flashbacks to when I was making it when I saw it as it was one of the few skins I made before I stopped. Its kinda making me want to make skins again, weird
@gomotion oh it's no problem really i'm just a fan, I am kinda tempted to redo the one I made since it was *four years ago* and there's parts I know I can improve on
I still think it's hilarious that the director said they didn't want to make the same mistake the first Sonic Movie trailer made, because now people are comparing the reactions between Sonic 3 and the Minecraft Movie with how people are genuinely excited to see Shadow on the big screen while either being freaked out or laughing at how the world of Minrcraft looks.
It would never be made this way, but ive always imagined a hypothetical Minecraft Movie as a basically wordless exploration through the world. Something that showcases the quiet beauty of single player. Start with the protagonist spawning in on a beach, finding a village, protecting it thru the night, finding and repairing a ruined portal, gathering materials, then fighting the Ender Dragon and freeing the realms. It would likely alienate the younger viewers, but a mature and quiet look into this world would be my preferred movie adaptation.
Tbh I think there's a place for it, i mean kids will watch movies like Spirited Away and more recently The Wild Robot and enjoy them because not everything needs to be constant wacky zaniness for a kid to like it.
@@bN_isheeere not to mention genndy tartokovsky carrying a good chunk of kids' childhoods back in the day with samurai jack, dexter, clone wars and his works can have minimal to no dialogue for an entire episode. and kids like his stuff. its even stupider to say "its for kids" when this movie is making jokes only older minecraft fans will get "yearn for the mines". big wigs at these studios just don't know sht about dick about what kids or adults want
Too niche and would fit closer to a straight to streaming movie, not a theatrical release, yeah it would probably be amazing but it’s hard for stuff like that to work without some entertainment especially for something like Minecraft which is typically associated with cool and fun stuff so some kids that would want to go see it go and get disappointed that it was slow and “boring” for them.
Remember how Minecraft ends with an existential dialogue about how reality is a series of dreams, and eventually we all must wake up? I cannot imagine them working those themes into this abomination of a film.
They could've also chosen to make it completely un-blocky and instead go for an *interpretation* of the grapchics instead. I've seen some real cute fluffy creeper designs, and some kickass ones that made them look like giant hands
I think the reason the minecart wheels aren’t blocky is because it’s an actual prop and not CGI, thus they had to find a way to make it actually roll. Also I genuinely don’t get why they gave the humanoid mobs ears. Like they’re find with the skeleton’s eyes moving, they make jokes about how nothing makes sense, yet they NEEDED to make the mobs anatomically-correct.
from the trailer we know there is a portal involved in the plot line. they could have easily done both animation and real-world segments that i think would have meshed MUCH better.
Like I get that the 'the children yearn for the mines' joke is an especially low-hanging fruit, but it's almost like the writers totally missed the fact that that joke is solely used in the context of CHILD LABOR. Baffling that they actually put that in the movie, I wonder if the line will be cut when it actually comes out.
they're making a fully animated netflix series, though way less people know about that. I'm kinda digging the idea that we get a live action film from the people who made the series and then we get what we ACTUALLY want on Netflix. Still wish the movie WAS animated though.
Personally if I were making a Minecraft movie, I would've made it stop-motion animation. A minimal dialogue, artsy film about Alex and Steve surviving in this big, strange world. Because THAT'S Minecraft's brand! It's not defined by epic adventure, but by moments of quiet wonder and creativity.
Honestly, you know what's a more entertaining execution of "children yearn for the mines"? Book of Bill. There's a section in the book that goes into that. It's brief, it's from a character that would make up this shit. Having Steve ACTUALLY yearn for the mines is supremely lame but they're playing Steve as a comedic relief (as well as everyone else I think). So whatever I guess.
minor mostly unrelated topic but fun sonic trivia: Mobius doesn't exist? Gomo refers to the World of Sonic as Mobius multiple times but at current it's just "The World Of Sonic" Mobius was the world in the Archie comics which I don't think they can even use legally idk this is pedantic as hell anyways
They can use the name. "Mobius" is a word that had already existed for quite a while before the Archie comics. It's not legally _allowed_ to be copyrighted.
seeing that minecraft zombie next to a human steve played by jack black is super uncanny to me. Aren't the zombies visually supposed to be undead Steves? I wish they at least made the more human mobs like skeletons, zombies and villagers look more human and not so aggressively square.
The best evidence that they could've made a better story if they committed to accurately depicting the Minecraft video game is the fact that Minecraft: The Island exists. That's the ACTUAL best narrative representation of Minecraft.
I suddenly wish the blue portal shown in the trailers that I assume is meant to be the portal between our world and minecraft world was made of one of the minerals described, idk just seems like a fun missed oppotunity. Or even just glowstone for the reference! Anything other than 'blue nether portal'
The thing that really pisses me off about Disney and Warner Brothers being like this is that they just, pretend that CGI isn't a kind of animation in and of itself, largely so they don't have to pay these beyond exhausted animators a living wage. If they were overworked less and paid more so many of these films would look so much better than they do to boot.
Your videos have a certain vibe to them that calms me down and makes me feel cozy!! It helps a lot with my anxiety 🤓☝️💜 hope you are doing well!! Take care!
Fun fact: the chicken in minecraft is actually cross eyed just like any other minecraft animal, the two white pixels between their eyes are the same colour pixels used for a cow or a horse or anything else.
9:58 I want to talk about this scene for a minute. Steve hits a zombie with a zombie arm. Now, there’s no weapon, or even item, in he game that looks like that. And no mods come to mind that have it either. You know what does have a zombie arm as a weapon? That’s right: Terraria. I believe that the Minecraft movie is going to be a terraria movie in disguise
I think the reason why Zombies aren’t just green Jack Black is because Jack Black (Steve) came from the real world, where in Minecraft, they’d normally appear to be born as blocky, like the villagers for example.
I like the character concept of the guy wearing pink. He's an 80's master gamer who used to get highscores in competitions and just never grew out of that cocky attitude & swagger while now being kinda incompetent because he only knows another era. I wanna see how him and steve conflict, I think it'll be fun.
Well at least my 2013 kid self is happy i finally got to see what those "Minecraft but realistic" videos promised in their thumbnails would actually look like if realized
THANK YOU. I’ve been so confused as to why, after the official trailer released, 2/3 of the film’s haters did a complete 180 and now think the movie’s going to be awesome. Like guys, it still looks like those “realistic Minecraft” videos I’d watch back in 2012, and that is not a compliment.
I've watched your videos for a while and I usually don't leave any sorta comments on videos but, your journey helped me start mine, i love your videos!!!
9:41 funnily enough, somebody is working on a Story Mode Remake on youtube, called Block by Block: The Amulet. It looks genuinely amazing and I feel just surpasses the movie's trailer.
I'm so glad you made this video. When I watched the new trailer I was genuinely shocked they somehow made the movie look even worse than it already did. I was even more shocked when I checked the comments and saw droves of people saying it actually looked good. I remember thinking "why isn't anyone hating???"
Yeah, I dunno why I didn't find myself disliking the movie after that trailer, I gave it a bit more slack and all. Not enough to actually want to go watch it at theaters, but enough to want to leave it playing on the TV if it comes on. Maybe it's the level of effort it had put into it? The practical props for the scenarios and backgrounds? The collaboration with MC UA-camrs? I genuinely don't know. I would still prefer if the movie was fully animated like the latest trailers (or even better, Minecraft Story Mode), but I couldn't bring myself to hate it either.
Because, everybody has their own opinions. “Wow this sucks”, “It looks good”, “Still looks bad”, “It’s better than the other trailer”. Not everybody hates it, but not everyone likes it either.
I’m gonna blame my expectations already being low, and how I don’t care (a lot) about how graphics look. Presentation-wise I feel like this trailer at least feels better than the first But I’m still not confident in the movie itself.
@@palecaptainwolfkayls8499Sorta in the same boat as you. I'm not as negative towards the film like with the first trailer, but I'm still not exactly hyped for it. Some of the creatures look decent like the bee, creeper, and iron golem, but then you still have the dogs, the pig men, and now the skeletons that have that uncanny valley look to them.
Honestly what I would have preferred was having everything be the same style. I don’t mind the the mobs and world looks on a stylistic standpoint but then the humans should look like that too, make them change when they go through the portal or something idk but having real ass humans in a animated world kinda takes me out of it.
What’s crazy is that if they chose to have it animated they wouldn’t even need to change the story that much Just… have them travel into the Minecraft world being fully animated and have some live action segments like… you could probably keep the story the same too!! Steve is a guy who went missing after discovering the portal and was like “woah better world!!”
The way I see it, certain video games simply work and don't work in the format of live action. Games like Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, and Sonic can work. However games like Mario and Minecraft simply just don't translate well into live action.
It’s really weird because half of the time when I’m looking at this movie I see Minecraft And the other half of the time it just looks like the normal world with corners And then it mixes and it’s weird Hopefully the story is at least good “As a child I yearned for the mines”
Oh, gosh, thank you! I felt like I was going insane seeing only positive reactions to the new trailer, just cuz Steve's funny "minors yern to mine" line. The art style still does not work for me and neither does the snippets of story we've been given.
Honeslty the zombie and the golem look pretty good. The weird, blocky proportions of the zombie's arms and golem's rigid structure really fit well with something rigid andnlifeless brought to life. You may notice this does not work with literally anything else. Whoops!
A live action minecraft movie can work, it just didn't convert enough things into realistic objects, like armor doesn't need to be cubes, that doesn't make sense, it should look and function like how animators do it for UA-camrs, the 2d animations not the 3d ones. Also small tangent, you do know that sonics world isn't mobius anymore right?
People saying this is better are drunk on grade A copium. This shit is so much worse because you SEE MORE OF THE MOVIE. IT'S NIGHTMARISH. WHO APPROVED OF THIS MOVIE
1:31 As an unprofessional writer, I’m going to give my input on this You Don’t Need To Over Explain I call this “accepting the first anomaly” meaning that you don’t need to explain anything else in the story if its uniqueness is the crux of the narrative. If anything far beyond the realm of what we’ve established is introduced, THEN that needs to be explained. So if you are in a fantasy world of magic, you probably don’t need to explain the origins of why magic exists in its world, but if later in the story you introduce science fiction aliens, you should probably explain why they are here and what does that mean in a world built on magic.
@ that’s not at all what I said World building is what happens after you accept said anomaly. If you make a story where all humans are born with superpowers, you don’t need to answer “why” that’s just the rule of the world if you want to engage with the story. Then you build off it: - how are countries run? - how are wars fought? - what’s it like getting a job - what’s it like raising a family?
@@psi_mae ok but mario blocks and shit are placed very strategically and in the air because it works very well for a standard 2d side scroller and people accept that because its just a utilitarian piece of game design, like if there was no video game it would be really weird to have floating blocks just in the air. they serve a purpose in one medium, but when translated to a big ass movie screen that stops making any sense. nothing else in the mushroom kingdom is unaffected by gravity like this. just accepting that as "well its just the way the game was" comes across as really lame to me. this is the place to learn why/how it happens, or at least suggest some organicness to the process and have there be other little chunks of whatever around to create same variation, magic exists in the mario universe so why not demonstrate that here, etc etc if ur gonna make a movie about a video game like this then like make it worth my while and ground some of these concepts to make this a fun and unique experience if the source material calls for it lol
@@gomosabode “it stops making sense” it’s a magical world with different rules, just absorb yourself into the rules of its world, that’s it. And it’s not like it’s presents is inconsequential to the story or world building, it paints a picture of navigation, construction, how one lives and operates in the world. It taking concepts of game design literally as apart of its world keeps Mario as a fish out of water character, and him needing to learn its logic is apart of his journey. The Mario movie is not high art but this would be a basic fucking concept to understand Hundreds of Beavers is a movie that is 100% build of rigid game design concepts to tell its story, and it’s genuinely one of the best movies I’ve seen.
@@gomosabodeit’s a movie for kids and teens, not every movie needs a deep intricate story. Some can just be fun and have stuff that just exists? Like I don’t need an expilation why Mario blocks are in the air and stuff because Mario has travelled to a magical strange new world and we’re seeing it the way he sees it at the same time.
10:32 never fought that after his adventure killing top CEO’s and literally becoming the god of the entire universe that Mt Foxtrot would now spend the rest of his eternal life supporting smaller creators. I guess even after death, he’s still got a CEO Mindset
I honestly like the movie. I feel like it’s interesting, looks funny, and might have some great stories in there, the mobs look cute (The monsters fierce and scary), and the actual blocks and things kinda beats the 2011 realism texture pack by miles (Y’all probably know better coz of 2009-2011 nostalgia, I’ve been playing since 2014). People also complain about the story being different from usual “the players survive after randomly spawning” or “players that have been living together go on adventure” story(not even using the new skins, just Steve and Alex or custom skins).Then again it’s Minecraft. No canon story, just *OUR* story. The movie ain’t canon so we have to reset it like a fan animation. Lemme just wait for ppl to shit on me here for having an opinion. In summary. It’s alright
Nah its gonna be sick, the designs are different if not kinda sickly looking but i love it, like you said its reminiscent to the old "goes hard" minecraft in real life shit and i love that
The most frustrating part about this nonsense is that all the uncanny CGI means it's BASICALLY just an animated film, only even more expensive and much uglier.
SOMEONE ELSE ACTUALLY LIKES THE LIVE ACTION MARIO MOVIE!? Like, it’s a terrible Mario movie but it was just so surreal and well put together movie. I can’t help but enjoy it.
I honestly never hated it either. I watched it as a kid with my sis when my dad found it online for us to see, and it was a strange, strange movie, but also enjoyable. Then I realized most people hated it, and for a while, my kid self rolled along... but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that, even tho a decent chunk of the complaints are valid... I couldn't bring myself to hate it. It's a fun movie, a cool action movie, with a really gnarly aesthetic, and even if it's not a great Mario movie, it's definitely a unique take on the Mario series that kinda reminds me of what a Newgrounds user would come up with for an animation, comic or game. When I saw some comics that were acting as a somewhat officially endorsed sequel to the movie, I realized I wanted more of this kinda thing. Heck, I even saw someone make an NES game of the movie! It had that vibe of NES games based on movies... except the movie was already based on games lol
I always had a soft spot for that film despite how radically different it is from the source material. It has such a cool, grungy aesthetic to it that would have been way better remembered if they weren't trying to adapt one of the most lively and colorful settings in video game history.
Sorry but I really like the movie and think the style is great. It’s wacky and fun and exactly what I could’ve asked for, once I got over seeing the animals for the first time I really started to love it. I just find joy within it idk
I wouldn't say the movie looks good from the recent trailer, just that it looks as good as it would be allowed to considering nobody in charge has any idea what actually represents Minecraft as a game. Just what few people in their team know what a Mincraft should look like.

@@fishstickfailur3 If that isn't in the movie I'm gonna riot.
umm, both are good, imo, no to fight about it,
The "3D is better than 2D" gaslighting is because the CG artists and animators didn't have a chance to unionise before they started getting exploited.
yes seriously!! i took that line out the vid bc im not fully educated on the subject but its fucked up dude
@@gomotion also it is cheaper

I was even more shocked when I checked the comments and saw droves of people saying it actually looked good. I remember thinking "why isn't anyone hating???"
Yeah, I dunno why I didn't find myself disliking the movie after that trailer, I gave it a bit more slack and all. Not enough to actually want to go watch it at theaters, but enough to want to leave it playing on the TV if it comes on. Maybe it's the level of effort it had put into it? The practical props for the scenarios and backgrounds? The collaboration with MC UA-camrs? I genuinely don't know. I would still prefer if the movie was fully animated like the latest trailers (or even better, Minecraft Story Mode), but I couldn't bring myself to hate it either.
Because, everybody has their own opinions. “Wow this sucks”, “It looks good”, “Still looks bad”, “It’s better than the other trailer”. Not everybody hates it, but not everyone likes it either.
@@somedude2-rt6ov aye, it's certainly divisive. I'm honestly in the more positive crowd, ngl, and I really disliked the teaser trailer too.
I’m gonna blame my expectations already being low, and how I don’t care (a lot) about how graphics look.
Presentation-wise I feel like this trailer at least feels better than the first
But I’m still not confident in the movie itself.
@@palecaptainwolfkayls8499Sorta in the same boat as you. I'm not as negative towards the film like with the first trailer, but I'm still not exactly hyped for it. Some of the creatures look decent like the bee, creeper, and iron golem, but then you still have the dogs, the pig men, and now the skeletons that have that uncanny valley look to them.
This entire movie looks like a group of people that dont want to be there standing in a big green box pretending to have fun
2:02 We do not speak that name round here...
it's morbin time
"And Steven" lmao
already had this trailer lol (me when i download highly illegal content)
It’s probably the first movie that I’ve scene where it will probably be crap, but will still make a billion dollars
Honestly what I would have preferred was having everything be the same style. I don’t mind the the mobs and world looks on a stylistic standpoint but then the humans should look like that too, make them change when they go through the portal or something idk but having real ass humans in a animated world kinda takes me out of it.
What’s crazy is that if they chose to have it animated they wouldn’t even need to change the story that much
Just… have them travel into the Minecraft world being fully animated and have some live action segments like… you could probably keep the story the same too!! Steve is a guy who went missing after discovering the portal and was like “woah better world!!”
As a child I yearned for the mines
finalmente someone who isnt saying "wow this movie doesnt look that bad"
we all should make minecraft-movie-sonas like you
2:45 the actual block doesn’t have square pieces of redstone either
i mean yeah that's exactly what i was referring to lol
I still stand by that the way everything looks in the movie is fine, the only thing that bothers me is the live action characters
Oh so thats what the Jodie Abodie video was for
I'm still hyped~
Ooooooooooooh this new thumbnail is very good imma rewatch the video just cuz of it
The way I see it, certain video games simply work and don't work in the format of live action. Games like Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, and Sonic can work. However games like Mario and Minecraft simply just don't translate well into live action.
It’s really weird because half of the time when I’m looking at this movie I see Minecraft
And the other half of the time it just looks like the normal world with corners
And then it mixes and it’s weird
Hopefully the story is at least good
“As a child I yearned for the mines”
Oh, gosh, thank you! I felt like I was going insane seeing only positive reactions to the new trailer, just cuz Steve's funny "minors yern to mine" line. The art style still does not work for me and neither does the snippets of story we've been given.
dope banner design
ty :))))
Im so confused by people suddenly being "oh this looks good bow"
No it doesn't??? It's the exact same cynical cgi abomination
Honeslty the zombie and the golem look pretty good. The weird, blocky proportions of the zombie's arms and golem's rigid structure really fit well with something rigid andnlifeless brought to life. You may notice this does not work with literally anything else. Whoops!
A live action minecraft movie can work, it just didn't convert enough things into realistic objects, like armor doesn't need to be cubes, that doesn't make sense, it should look and function like how animators do it for UA-camrs, the 2d animations not the 3d ones.
Also small tangent, you do know that sonics world isn't mobius anymore right?
no its mobius and this is true because i say so
@gomotion well, you've convinced me.
@@gomotionno its not, the designs are cool and fateful, if you dont like it its your opinion
@@sonicloverlol2 they're really ugly and my opinion was fact checked by the US government and its 100% correct
People saying this is better are drunk on grade A copium. This shit is so much worse because you SEE MORE OF THE MOVIE. IT'S NIGHTMARISH. WHO APPROVED OF THIS MOVIE
Womp womp
it's saddening
Wdym? I thought the designs are better suited for a minecraft movie! I never thought they looked weird or disturbing. Unlike the zombies…
I’m still hoping that all of this is just like taking the piss and the movie is gonna be far better stylistically. *PLEASE.*
@@RealZerenaFan are you insane
Honestly I think its gonna be fun, I wish that take was more said.
9:42 Netflix are making an animated Minecraft series
THE LEGO MOVIE WAS 10 YEARS AGO????
0:58 level1..? PAUL LESKOWITZ SHALL HEAR ABOUT THIS, GLOW MUTATIONS..
just by the promotional material alone you can tell they don’t really even know what they should’ve done with the movie.
1:31
As an unprofessional writer, I’m going to give my input on this
You
Don’t
Need
To
Over
Explain
I call this “accepting the first anomaly” meaning that you don’t need to explain anything else in the story if its uniqueness is the crux of the narrative.
If anything far beyond the realm of what we’ve established is introduced, THEN that needs to be explained.
So if you are in a fantasy world of magic, you probably don’t need to explain the origins of why magic exists in its world, but if later in the story you introduce science fiction aliens, you should probably explain why they are here and what does that mean in a world built on magic.
that sounds like a very easy way to disregard any kind of worldbuilding issue with any medium ever
@ that’s not at all what I said
World building is what happens after you accept said anomaly.
If you make a story where all humans are born with superpowers, you don’t need to answer “why” that’s just the rule of the world if you want to engage with the story.
Then you build off it:
- how are countries run?
- how are wars fought?
- what’s it like getting a job
- what’s it like raising a family?
@@psi_mae ok but mario blocks and shit are placed very strategically and in the air because it works very well for a standard 2d side scroller and people accept that because its just a utilitarian piece of game design, like if there was no video game it would be really weird to have floating blocks just in the air. they serve a purpose in one medium, but when translated to a big ass movie screen that stops making any sense. nothing else in the mushroom kingdom is unaffected by gravity like this. just accepting that as "well its just the way the game was" comes across as really lame to me. this is the place to learn why/how it happens, or at least suggest some organicness to the process and have there be other little chunks of whatever around to create same variation, magic exists in the mario universe so why not demonstrate that here, etc etc
if ur gonna make a movie about a video game like this then like make it worth my while and ground some of these concepts to make this a fun and unique experience if the source material calls for it lol
@@gomosabode “it stops making sense” it’s a magical world with different rules, just absorb yourself into the rules of its world, that’s it.
And it’s not like it’s presents is inconsequential to the story or world building, it paints a picture of navigation, construction, how one lives and operates in the world.
It taking concepts of game design literally as apart of its world keeps Mario as a fish out of water character, and him needing to learn its logic is apart of his journey.
The Mario movie is not high art but this would be a basic fucking concept to understand
Hundreds of Beavers is a movie that is 100% build of rigid game design concepts to tell its story, and it’s genuinely one of the best movies I’ve seen.
@@gomosabodeit’s a movie for kids and teens, not every movie needs a deep intricate story. Some can just be fun and have stuff that just exists? Like I don’t need an expilation why Mario blocks are in the air and stuff because Mario has travelled to a magical strange new world and we’re seeing it the way he sees it at the same time.
This movie would be better with different actors, different ideas, different...
10:32 never fought that after his adventure killing top CEO’s and literally becoming the god of the entire universe that Mt Foxtrot would now spend the rest of his eternal life supporting smaller creators.
I guess even after death, he’s still got a CEO Mindset
I honestly like the movie. I feel like it’s interesting, looks funny, and might have some great stories in there, the mobs look cute (The monsters fierce and scary), and the actual blocks and things kinda beats the 2011 realism texture pack by miles (Y’all probably know better coz of 2009-2011 nostalgia, I’ve been playing since 2014). People also complain about the story being different from usual “the players survive after randomly spawning” or “players that have been living together go on adventure” story(not even using the new skins, just Steve and Alex or custom skins).Then again it’s Minecraft. No canon story, just *OUR* story. The movie ain’t canon so we have to reset it like a fan animation. Lemme just wait for ppl to shit on me here for having an opinion.
In summary. It’s alright
Love that Steven Universe reference!
Nah its gonna be sick, the designs are different if not kinda sickly looking but i love it, like you said its reminiscent to the old "goes hard" minecraft in real life shit and i love that
That voice training did numbers on you!
The Minecraft movie is going to turn back the clock and make Minecraft the laughing stock of the internet again.
Minecraft movie directed by David Lynch make it happen capitalism
Holy patreon chad named MT Foxtrot.
The most frustrating part about this nonsense is that all the uncanny CGI means it's BASICALLY just an animated film, only even more expensive and much uglier.
Is this movie gonna be good? NO NO PLEASE DONT I HAVE A FAMILY
Is it gonna be fun? Yeah... i guess
THE VILLAGERS, WHYYYY
100% bet theres gonna be a scene where jack's eyes go full white. Even for a second. I hate this movie
completely agree with all your points here you've summed up my feelings in a way better than I could
SOMEONE ELSE ACTUALLY LIKES THE LIVE ACTION MARIO MOVIE!?
Like, it’s a terrible Mario movie but it was just so surreal and well put together movie. I can’t help but enjoy it.
I honestly never hated it either. I watched it as a kid with my sis when my dad found it online for us to see, and it was a strange, strange movie, but also enjoyable.
Then I realized most people hated it, and for a while, my kid self rolled along... but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that, even tho a decent chunk of the complaints are valid... I couldn't bring myself to hate it. It's a fun movie, a cool action movie, with a really gnarly aesthetic, and even if it's not a great Mario movie, it's definitely a unique take on the Mario series that kinda reminds me of what a Newgrounds user would come up with for an animation, comic or game.
When I saw some comics that were acting as a somewhat officially endorsed sequel to the movie, I realized I wanted more of this kinda thing. Heck, I even saw someone make an NES game of the movie! It had that vibe of NES games based on movies... except the movie was already based on games lol
I do.
Mostly because I know a bit of context behind the artistic decisions. Namely the Max Headroom creators being in command.
This is what _I’m_ saying!
I always had a soft spot for that film despite how radically different it is from the source material. It has such a cool, grungy aesthetic to it that would have been way better remembered if they weren't trying to adapt one of the most lively and colorful settings in video game history.
@@Mike14264 most people don't hate it.
4:23 made me gag my brains out. Thakns Gomotion! I knew i could rely on you!!
Sorry but I really like the movie and think the style is great. It’s wacky and fun and exactly what I could’ve asked for, once I got over seeing the animals for the first time I really started to love it. I just find joy within it idk
I wouldn't say the movie looks good from the recent trailer, just that it looks as good as it would be allowed to considering nobody in charge has any idea what actually represents Minecraft as a game. Just what few people in their team know what a Mincraft should look like.
0:59 what were you trying to do here
attack!!!!!!!!!!! :D
NEW THUMBNAIL!! :0
