Minecraft is only technically an original movie. Video game “franchise” popular with kids is usual “formula slop” leveraging past pop culture.

Ugh, that’s exactly what’s going to happen, isn’t.
Also, it really annoys me how so many ponder why stuff like this is happening and miss the elephant in the room. Guess engagement optimization isn’t a trending topic…
