Look, I enjoyed the Minecraft game as much as the next person. Maybe not as much as kids, but as an adult man, I had a blast playing Minecraft when I got into it a couple of years ago. I only played in survival mode and spent my time building some really interesting things! Like a giant pyramid, a skyscraper complete with floors, windows and stairs that went all the way up to the world ceiling cap, underwater trams and buildings, the Eye of Sauron, a castle and then I finally got bored trying to build a gigantic, color-coded Rubix cube.

Anyway, when people love a thing, Hollywood makes a cheap movie out of it. I’m sure I heard of this existing at some point in the past, well now we have a teaser trailer. Be prepared.

They didn’t even make Jack Black shave his current, real-life beard for this one. He had the same beard in The Mandalorian, right? So that’s gotta be in his contract. If you want Jack Black in your thing, he doesn’t have to change anything about himself. Rock on.

The visuals of the world look neat, but everything else about this movie looks to be as paint-by-the-numbers as a thing can be. Oh boy. But maybe kids will love it? I guess we’ll find out when A Minecraft Movie comes to theaters on April 4.
