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

It looks to be an acceptable movie in the same vein as minions to me. I really hope the plot won’t be as formulaic as it definitely is, because I’ll be compelled to watch it at some point.

Yeah, it's not like Minecraft itself is marketed to the hardcore gamer demographic. It's essentially a kids' movie. I suspect it might still suck at that though.

IMDb indicates that the screenplay was written by a pair of writers exclusively versed in the 6-10 age demographic, with touchups by rob mcelhenney. Directed by the couple behind napoleon dynamite. I expect morbius.

with touchups by rob mcelhenney.

I feel like kids moves should be higher quality. Teach them about good films from a young age. One can't keep giving them mindless content at a time were they are supposed to be developing their minds.
