minecraft the movie - aka autism the movie; aka stuck in development hell

The movie has a new trailer.
"As a child, I yearned for the mines."
No horror sheep in this one, I wonder if it's getting a redesign? I feel like I'd enjoy it more if it was just the kid characters, Jason Momoa and sassy black lady just feel tacked on and out of place.

This had the feel of a bad Super Bowl commercial for Minecraft with celebrities. The only difference it's a full length movie.
 
Anyone get the feeling that the script for this was for a whole different movie and they just changed enough to be Minecraft stuff or how this movie was desinged by a office comitee?
I personally think they just took the new Jumanji movies scripts and changed the character names and crtl+f replaced the word "jungle" for "mine".

This would 100% star The Rock and Kevin Hart too if they could get away with it, but that would be too obvious so they got a different famous samoan guy and a different wacky black.

Alternatively this could be going to chat gpt and saying "write a movie like Jumanji but for Minecraft" would not be suprised at all.
 
What is even happening anymore.

I was going to say something about how that trope is so old and tired that it might actually happen but remembering that this movie was in pre-production for almost 10 years that checks out.
Oh, I’m being 100% serious. The script link specifically said it was going to happen, and this was before that trailer came out.
