There are probably going to be ~10 Minecraft movies over the next ~20 years (if not more)

If kids like it, that's a top end target market. No parent is going to lecture their child for shit taste. 😆

The children are not going to say "this is an atrocious screen adaption of the spirit of Minecraft, I am extremely disappointed in Jared Hess' direction and Jason Momoa, who has once again proven himself to be a subpar actor as we saw in his work in See".

There will be two more and likely a small animated series. Also movie really wasn't that bad, it's a kid's movie but better than the kid's movies I had.

Why? All the reviews I've seen so far are bad. It's barely scoring 5/10.

As a film, it’s bad. As a big budget YouTube Minecraft movie, it’s good.

It’s the same sort of nonsense kids love to watch on YouTube.

That’s my theory/framing.

It's not as bad as I thought it would be. I don't think jack black should have been in it tho, kinda over his stuff ATM.
