At this point I'm going to Ladbrokes and betting against everything Kotaku promotes. They are like Jim Cramer of the gaming industry.

I mean tbf we got 40 year old on here salty about this movie, while my kids can't wait to see it.

It reminds me of adults bitching about minions being dumb and childish, that's the point

They could be pulling a 'sonic movie' move here, releasing a terrible trailer to gather heat and information.

Though the sonic movie only had Sonic to change

OK, so it's going to be a shitty movie and no one is going to watch it, other than YouTubers, so they can dunk on the movie.

This is a second shitty movie with Black Jack in it. Lets hope he's not a trend setter.

Biggest problem I have with a movie like this is them trying to make a movie out of an endless sandbox game. If a game has a definitive end, then sure it's fine. Just look at the Fallout show and Sonic movie.

Imagine if for some reason The Powder Toy suddenly became a huge thing and they decided to make a movie out of it. Where do you go while not being lame? That's how I feel about this upcoming film.

wait what... what does the article say? who do they even mean by "you" in the first place? are they right? am i supposed to form an opinion based on the title? am i back on reddit???

I've read the article. It is based on the author's personal experience, which, news flash, does not represent reality as a whole. Also, even then he is wrong, kids movies can appeal to anyone: The Lego Movie, The Super Mario Bros Movie, Sonic the Hedgehog films.

Also, he called Minecraft Story Mode a "Netflix cartoon".

I'll remember that with my kids asked me to take them to go see it. I'm sorry kids some writer on some website said that I wasn't allowed to see this movie so you can't either. Cuz you know you don't have jobs or money or anything. I have all that so y'all are out of luck.
