The Minecraft Movie If It Was Good:
(It should've been an artsy stop-motion film in the Wes Anderson style)
Stop Motion wouldn't have been any more expensive than rendering everything in horrifying realistic CGI, the medium would easily work with Minecraft's blocky aesthetic, and it appeals to both old and young demographics. Plus, you don't need a bloated live-action blockbuster for a Minecraft film to get attention, it's already the best-selling game of all time.
For the story, I'd mirror the average player's first experience with Minecraft by focusing on Steve finding himself alone in this vast, strange world. At-first he's focused on surviving through trial and error, then gradually he begins to wonder where he came from and what his purpose is. He explores the world seeking answers, and finally realizes that "purpose" is something he must give himself.
Just like life, Minecraft is a sandbox game where you must make your own fun.
By utilizing minimal dialogue, an ageless medium, and centring around the fundamental human angst of 'why are we here,' the film (just like the game) could have had a universal and timeless appeal.
Instead we got THIS:
I think the strangest part about the minecraft movie is the fact that, not only are all of the game's abstractions recreated faithfully, but they aren't even played straight.
In the game, blocks appear in the world instantly because a placement animation would be unnecessarily slow and clunky. Broken blocks drop as floating miniatures because it's convenient, fits the artstyle, and communicates its collectable state to the player clearly. All of the game's little quirks like these are clearly just representations of real-world rules for the sake of functionality. They don't really come across as literal representations of how the minecraft universe works.
The fact that this movie recreates this behaviour in live action, and worse, has gawking outsiders pointing out how weird it all is, is just so awfully distracting. Imagine if every marvel movie was about real people isekaiing into the comic book world and quipping about how weird it was that all the characters talk with speech bubbles.
chat how we feeling about the Minecraft movie
I'll pretend the Minecraft movie is just a collective hallucination
