Comment on Minecraft movie spawns ‘annoying’ cinema trend that viewers claim ‘ruins’ the film

I’m sorry but I just can’t believe that this is actually happening. This sounds so fake. What seems more reasonable, that crowds are going crazy in the theater and chanting to something from the (widely panned) trailer, or that the producers paid a couple people to write fake testimonials?

I don’t think the people who are shitting on the trailer online are in the target demographic…

I mean, I’ve been playing Minecraft for longer than I can remember and I definitely only said bad things when the trailer came out. I guess I’m just out of touch or something.

I feel the same way, I would lose self respect purchasing a ticket… idk it feels like someone took an important part of my childhood and decided to ruin it.

It’s better than the trailers made it look. It’s not a master piece, but I went in expecting to be disappointed and was surprised. It was decent. On par with the Mario movie overall.

My son got invited to a birthday party for it. Theater was 90% 5-12 year olds. This really did happen. In Australia where I don’t usually see this kind of thing, even when I’ve heard about it for other movies.
A guy that looked mid teens literally yelled “shut the fuck up!” at one point which just made them all laugh and go more crazy.
