Outlines
🤔 Zweifel und Überlegungen zur Videokritik
Der Erzähler hadert mit der Entscheidung, ob er das Video überhaupt machen soll, da er nicht als der Typ gelten will, der sich über Filme und Videospiele für Kinder beschwert. Trotz dieser Bedenken entschließt er sich schließlich, das Video zu drehen und seine Meinung zu teilen. Er gibt zu, dass er kein großer Fan von 'Minecraft' ist, aber er respektiert das Spiel und erkennt seine kulturelle Bedeutung an.
🛠️ Meta-Ansatz im Minecraft-Film
Der Erzähler diskutiert den Meta-Ansatz des Films, bei dem reale Menschen in das Spiel gezogen werden, ähnlich wie in anderen Filmen wie 'Jumanji'. Er erkennt an, dass dieser Ansatz aus einer Studio-Perspektive Sinn macht, da Minecraft bereits Geschichten in der Spielwelt durch Formate wie 'Minecraft Story Mode' hatte. Trotzdem empfindet er die Umsetzung als enttäuschend, da sie vorhersehbar ist und ihm der Charme fehlt, den Filme wie 'The Lego Movie' hatten.
🎭 Besetzung und Darstellung von Steve im Film
Der Erzähler äußert seine Kritik an der Wahl von Jack Black als Steve, da die Entscheidung nach seiner Meinung nicht durchdacht wirkt. Es scheint, als sei Jack Black einfach genommen worden, weil er verfügbar war. Zudem kritisiert er, dass Jack Black wie er selbst aussieht und nicht wie die Figur Steve. Diese mangelnde kreative Umsetzung verstärkt für ihn das Gefühl, dass der Film nicht ernsthaft gemacht wurde.

Transcripts
I really I went back and forth on if I
wanted to do this video cuz
like do I really want to be that guy do
do I really want do I really want to
make a do just be that guy on YouTube
who makes a career just a 30s something
guy who
complains about kids video game movies
who just like harshly
criticizes kids and movies is that a
thing do I want that to be my legacy you
know I just like I'm not going to have
anything good to say I don't have
anything good to say about
this but like I also I'm trying to make
a habit of like talking about video game
movies just kind of like whatever they
are kind of no matter what every time
one comes and goes it was Five Nights at
Freddy's and it was I just like all of
them I just I feel like it's worth at
least a topic Arlo video it's worth at
least a quick thing you know like I it's
worth a quick review going and it's fun
you know you go and you see it and you
throw your opinions out there it's just
so and everyone's talking about it today
so just
like sure sure clearly I decided to do
it I'm here doing it and like I'm not
even a Minecraft guy gosh I'm just not
even I'm not qualified for this this so
I'm I'm doing this and just like I don't
know if you could get something out of
it sure not even a Minecraft fan and I
mean like I appreciate Minecraft you
know like I was around I was alive uh
when when it launched I think it's a
cool thing I it's a great thing even at
the time like I I wished that I could
get into it I just like I didn't have
time for it and I knew that like this
was the kind of thing that can just
consume thousands of hours of your life
I think it's a really it's a really
amazing thing and in another life and
another timeline I would have gotten
super into Minecraft cuz it's a cool
thing and I know now it's so big it's so
so mainstream and it's a big kids thing
and I sure but like I don't know I I
appreciate
[Music]
Minecraft I don't know I'm just we'll
talk about the trailer I
mean okay so I didn't I didn't really
know what to
expect the opening shot it happens and
okay first see it's just I feel stupid I
feel stupid just go for it I'm going to
give you my thoughts cuz that's what
we're doing that's just what we're doing
today what we're doing talking about
Minecraft movie trailer Finally Revealed
it uh and I mean like is it even worth
mentioning sorry for the aside already
but is it even worth mentioning like
what took so
long I don't understand it I thought
like Hollywood is all about just like if
it's popular get that movie made but I
don't know what it is about game movies
you know like Angry Birds was huge and
then it took them like 19 years to do a
movie and now with Minecraft it's just
like what on Earth what have you been
waiting for I guess I just don't and
Five Nights at Freddy's there's another
one like what what have you been waiting
for what took you so long so okay so
that's out of the way uh yeah first Mark
against the trailer that thing where you
take like an old pop song
and you make an epic Orchestral Version
of it it's just like oh it's
just
just how long how many is that permanent
now is that just a permanent fixture of
movie trailers especially adaptations
what is it about adaptations I feel like
lean on this even heavier in this case
it's the Beatles it's Magical Mystery
Tour but it's an epic like it's supposed
to get you all like ooh it's this
nostalgic thing but you did an epic
version of it I just can't I just
can't and okay and so then like you know
opening shot looks all cool and then I'm
not going shot for shot I'm just saying
like the beginning of the trailer it's
the opening shot all right Minecraft
movie what's it going to be boom live at
it's real it's real it's live action
it's a real thing it's Jumanji it's real
people sucked into the game world and
just like in that exact moment it's just
like okay well that's I'm just I'm just
done I'm just like I am not on board
anymore I wasn't even like on board
before I was
curious I'm not curious anymore it's
just it's here's the thing it's
difficult
because it kind of makes
sense especially from like the the
studio angle cuz we've already had
stories in Minecraft we've had Minecraft
story mode you know we've already
explored the idea of like stories within
Minecraft within the universe so it's
like it does make sense to make it more
meta to make it more about the game of
Minecraft because then they can really
focus on the creation aspect now it's
people who are playing by The Game's
rules they're essentially playing the
game in movie form it's all about them
building and crafting and so like I that
it does kind of make sense to go meta
you know like uh Lego movie it's a great
example of like I mean it it sort of has
its own universe but it has a meta
element and that ended up making it so
much more valuable as an adaptation
because it's not just an entertaining
piece of
media made by Lego you know starring
Lego people it's like no it's about Lego
it's
about the experience of playing with
Legos it's the creativity it's so
important so I should I should like
this I should like that it went meta but
man
just the entertainment value it just the
second I saw those people it just
plummeted
absolutely plummeted and I think a lot
of that is because of just like I mean
if you have followed any of my movie
opinions video game movie opinions
you'll know I have a little bit of a
high standard when it comes to this sort
of thing I don't like
formulaic anything I don't like buy the
numbers anything which is why even just
hearing Magical Mystery Tour with the
orchestra I just like if it's a thing
that you're only doing because everybody
else does it I just like okay it has to
me it has no value now and that goes for
like humor I can't
stand obvious pandering humor I cannot
take it and that's why I don't like
certain movies when it's just like these
jokes are not funny they're not meant to
be funny they're meant to be exactly
what you expect to happen in that
scenario you know what I mean I can't it
just to me that does not make for a good
movie again I'll point to The Lego Movie
as an example of a movie that's just
genuinely funny just by its own merits
it's not it's not just regurgitating the
same thing we've seen a million times
before and the problem with the meta
thing The Meta angle is that like I know
all these jokes before they even said
any of the jokes in this trailer I just
I know what they are already a third a
solid onethird of the movie is just
going to be them staring dumbfounded at
this crazy world how weird it is and and
being like say what and just like
reacting to stupid animals and you know
what I mean I mean like half the trailer
was stupid animals stupid block animals
like it's just there's multiple there's
multiple in the trailer because it's
just like what like that's the joke is
that this is crazy that's the problem
with the whole meta thing that's what
you get and that's what you get even
here in this TR it's just like what
record scratch this guy's a it's it's
just it's just it's just like worthless
it's just it's nothing it's nothing it
was it doesn't look like it was create
it was written with any sort of Joy see
this is how I get in trouble though okay
this is how I get in
trouble G to stop I don't to go too far
it's
just so so yeah the meta angle
I'm not a fan of I don't like it even
though it makes
sense I just think it's going to have a
dramatic impact on the
watchability of the movie cuz now I
don't know now it
doesn't now it feels like Minecraft it
feels like playing Minecraft in movie
form but it doesn't feel like Minecraft
world Minecraft world is just kind of
now the thing that these
people it's just okay I'm failing to
make a good point so I'm just G to move
on uh see Jack Black as Steve see
there's another thing long before the
trailer they
announced who's going to be voicing
Steve and they and they were like well
let's look at the board of uh of people
of human beings who are allow
to be Steve and it was Chris Pratt and
it was Jack Black and they threw a dart
and they flipped a coin and it landed on
Jack Black so it's I mean I love Jack
Black I actually think he's great it's
just he's that guy now who's just like
we don't have to think we don't have to
try we don't have to try to find the
right person we don't have to do
auditions we just pick Jack
Black cuz Chris prep is
busy and I just and and so and so like
that was already a thing going into this
I'm already and you're hearing his voice
in the trailer and and
then and then he
appears
and it's just
Jack it's
just it's just Jack Black he's not
animated he doesn't look like Steve he's
he's wearing his regular clothes I'm
convinced that he just showed up to the
shoot in those clothes and they were
like all right there you go he's not
even he's not even wearing a costume
it's just like his regular beard and
hair it's just like you see him in
interviews and that's what he looks like
and that's the way that's Steve he
doesn't look like Ste I mean like would
it be awkward if he was like a weird
gross voxel person would that look a
little too weird here is that why we're
only seeing like animals and goblins or
whatever it's just it's just Jack Black
and the way he's like I'm Steve like as
though that's supposed to
like mean something I don't know it's
just like it's just so weird the whole
thing just has this really weird weird
energy and I just I don't know I just
don't know I I think Minecraft is a big
enough thing that I like the idea of it
having a good movie you
know my nephew he loves Minecraft I'll
take him to see it we'll see it and
trust me I'm not going to I'm not going
to I'm not going to be complaining the
whole time I'm going to let him have fun
I'm going to let him have fun maybe
he'll love it I I don't know sure will
kids like it sure fine see but that's
the thing though Minecraft's been around
for what what's it been like 14 years
now or something 2010 2011
[Music]
like doesn't everybody deserve to have a
good Minecraft movie you know doesn't
everybody deserve to enjoy it on some
level cuz I and I'm I'm trying not to
only look at this from my own like extra
cynical
grumpy level that I you know I'm I'm
trying to see it a little bit more from
a broad level
even from from that perspective this
does not look like
something
that anyone other than a kid is going to
enjo it just doesn't it doesn't do
anything I don't know it doesn't do
anything grown-ups liked the Sonic movie
and they liked the Mario movie and sure
those still were kids
movies and I could be wrong maybe plenty
of people will think this is good even
grown-ups but I'm looking at this and
I'm am only
seeing that same brand of like Pander
kids movie schlock that's just like that
the parents bring the kids cuz the kids
want to go and the parents do not have a
good time you know they
just don't have a good
time but
ah I don't know we'll have to wait and
see I guess I am not going to follow
this up with any other tra it comes out
in April I'm not going to be following
all the trailers I'm not going to do
that I'm not this is you know just
ragging on the Minecraft movies not
going to become part of my career we
will talk about it again when the movie
comes out I will go I will probably
bring my nephew and we will talk about
it then
