Watching this trailer gives me hopes that we can Sonic this thing! Unfortunatly I have a sinking feeling it’ll be another Lion King, where they completely ignore the community. Ich drücke uns die Daumen!

    The irony is, something like this probably would have been a lot less expensive to make, while also appealing more to fans. It’s funny how so many people in the movie business are not very good at, you know, the movie business.

      Yeah… Unfortunatly some producer that doesn’t care about the original ip or the fanbase is probably at the wheel.

        It’s just your typical meme-movie that nobody really asked for, they gather a bunch of classic game tropes and shove it into a movie and then max out on publicity like “Haha look, so funny and recognizable Minecraft stuff. Are we right, fellow kids? We totally get you!”.

        They probably could’ve gotten away with it if they just used 3D characters like the Mario movie too and it would’ve worked fine for younger audiences. It probably still will work fine for younger audiences but it feels so terribly forced.

    This isn’t going to be fixed. It would take too much work to actually fix it. Maybe they have enough time before April 4, but that is extensive reshooting. They’d pretty much have to trash all of the video and keep just the audio probably.

      From the trailers it even looks like the story is gonna be super linear and boring. At that point they’d need to rewrite the whole thing. Even the most ambitious studio is gonna have a hard time committing to that.

        I‘m somewhat sure the person who made the trailer will make a version of the film out of pure spite that works exactly like this and its going to be the best thing ever, maybe even shaking the movie industry.

            How’s the saying go? “Aim for the Moon, even if you miss, you’ll end up among the stars.”

            I’d like to assume it could be a wake up call for the industry, but sometimes the flop is on purpose.

          Seems like a bit of a reach in wishful thinking lol

          Nobody is going to spend that time on a ‘fixed’ version of the movie, let alone have access to everything needed to even do this. It’s more likely that someone will make a fan-made movie with audio from the original.

            Have you seen the blender movie? Its quite short but you dont need any equipment to make good animated movies anymore. Its all there.
