Inventory is stored in the cubes
This is one of those movies I will only learn about through memes.
ive experienced this effect with the movie titanic
never seen it, know the entire plot through memes/parody
Titanic is fantastic. You watch the movie completely ready for the ship to crash. But at some point, your brain stops and you're more invested in the characters. Then boom, motherfucking iceberg.
True Lies, another James Cameron movie, does that twist too. Where you watch it for one thing, then surprise, you're now invested in another thing.
No you don't. You only know about flying and French girls. You don't know anything else about the rest of the movie.
I was thinking about this recently. There's a lot of bad movies that come out every year since forever. Usually, they just kind of disappear and die.
But only thanks to social media have we had a way to mock the studio.
I'm just imagining the memes made of bad movies from the 2000s.
Sufficient
truly the low hanging fruit of a joke
Sounds too close to pubes so they may say blocks instead
And I will laugh ( if I watch it)
It's a movie with jack black, you watch!
Everything in Minecraft is cubes so expect the cube humor. Testicles are particularly humorous so I have confidence in this prediction.
Dunno why people would criticize Black’s characters in film. I mean, that’s what he does. Same as Sandler, Ferrell, or any of the rest of the low hanging fruit, cringe, or bro-humor comedy actors. I wouldn’t go to a movie with Jack Black in it and expect Shawshank Redemption.
Jack Black was actually really great in a serious acting role in Bernie
That being said, Sandler and Ferrell do some amazing serious stuff.
They can, absolutely. However it’s just not the norm.
Watch Bernie if you want to see Black do a different take. His character is quirky, but there's a lot of depth to him as well.
I do wish we got to see Black use a little more of his range because he can deliver a nuanced comedic character too.
I really, really liked his performance in Bernie. He was silly, but there was also a simultaneous depression, fear, and darkness in his performance.
I wouldn't expect Shawshank Redemption, but I also wouldn't be surprised if that's what was delivered
I could go either way on this one. There's no great cache of lore to betray, and everybody already sort of plays Minecraft how they want. It actually could work as a fairly generic but charming Jumanji clone.
It could also suck donkey cubes. I'm just saying the licensed IP isn't really going to make or break this one.
The few bits of lore that exist are probably going to be fumbled. I really do hope they do just have herobrine in the background of some scene. The trailer looks like they are going all in on hoglins, which I'm completely meh on. Endermen are probably too scary for a little kid movie tho.
Not those guys who melt in the rain and can be dealt with by sloshing a bucket of water on them! Or just standing under a low overhang...
Even the Daleks eventually figured out how to fly up stairs.
Naw, it'll just play a metal-hitting-metal sound effect, he'll brief make eye contact with the camera, give a little smirk, and the scene will continue with no further acknowledgement.
Gotta be the anvil sound.
YES!
Probably a pixelation joke too for nudity that the kids won't get but the adults will.
We're really achieving the prophecy that is Idiocracy.
Idiocracy is the 1984 for film nerds
On the bright side we do end up with president Camacho in that timeline.
At least Camacho was smart enough to listen to the world's smartest person's advice.
Bitch better have my money…
Black is just playing his character from Tropic Thunder.
Note that Idiocracy and Youtube premiered around the same time...
Look at the brass cubes on this guy!
That would be the best joke of his career
I think you are being too optimistic.......
I dont get it.
The joke is that the more right angles a shape has the funnier it is.
Ouch my bismuth!
In the post credits, I'm on it.
Remember when JB said, "I blacked out. Did something important happen?" in borderlands.
Me either, but he did, and we're gonna get that joke again too.
I don't but if i had i would have used that line with my friends when the credits rolled
I'm looking forward to the part where his character's best friend says "please don't miss next time," and then he never talks to his friend again even though they were equally important to the plot up until that moment
Ack! My voxels!
And I'm gonna giggle like a little girl when it happens.
That username is great! Sunny Day Real Estate is one of my favorite bands.
Pics or it didn't happen? (Will that work? We'll find out!:-)
What's with all the 40 year olds in basements bitching about this movie? It's not for you dude
Most people don't want their kids eating slop all the time.
Beyond that Minecraft is a considerably old game now, especially if you got into it in the very early days. It shouldn't be surprising that there are older people paying attention to this.
I was in notch's old threads on /v/ in the very beginning back as a young teen (yes 4chan, I was totally 18 years old, pinky swear). I'm in my 30s and have a kid now who is too young to play, but I will probably introduce her at an appropriate age if she likes computer games.
I'm not raging or anything, but I'm definitely paying attention enough to know if this movie is garbage to steer my kid away from in the future.
I was an adult when Minecraft was new and I played the shit out of it back then.
Who do you think is buying the movie tickets? Is your little cousin gonna smash his piggy bank and pay the $35 ticket with his leftover pennies and nickels?
It's adults. Adults pay to watch the movies. I'd happily pay to watch Shrek again in theaters.
Lol parents are paying. And parents don't give a single shit if the movie the kids want to see is good or not, we expect the worst. We sat through the emoji movie and every Minion thrown at us.
I doubt you have kids so you're not paying for anything here.
Besides stop acting like you're funding the movie and demand returns. If you don't wanna see it don't. Show them your disdain by withholding your money. But don't get mad when it's a big hit with kids and it makes a fortune.
Plenty of non 30+ years old have the same complaints, we just happen to be on a platform that not a lot of young people use.
If they do not kill an Ender Dragon after first dying 40 times with unenchanted armor trying to blow up those things on the obsidian towers, I WILL SET FIRE TO THE THEATER!!!!!!!! RESPECT MY GAMING EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!
I have played Minecraft for maybe only like 50 hours, and I've never done anything but just free build with no purpose, enemies or anything. I just use the game to build stuff that pops into my head. I've never actually played it to fight monsters or story mode or anything
Meanwhile every Minecraft youtuber: beats the dragon in twenty minutes Okay, now we can get started...
