Minecraft, the film rectifies the situation with its new trailer

The successes ofUncharted et Super Mario Bros, the movie Were they isolated cases? In an ocean of failed video game adaptations, few proposals stand out. If the little mustachioed guy from Nintendo and the adventurer from Naughty Dog convinced during their first adventures in the cinema, other universes have been caught up by the harsh reality of a box office which does not give any gifts. Borderlands left some scars, Lionsgate’s adaptation was a failure on many levels. In 2025, it is the release of Minecraft, I film them which worries. It must be said that the first trailer was not the most reassuring, focusing on hackneyed narrative springs et a particularly risky aesthetic. Warner Bros is offering itself a new chance to convince with a more complete trailer, highlighting the aesthetic choices of director Jared Hess.

There is better

In September, Minecraft, the film appeared under a deluge of unconvincing visual effects. In addition to the difficult inlay of flesh and blood characters in this animated universe, the proposal lacked relief and texture. The new images confirm that changes have been made, the lighting and colorimetry have been corrected. A more realistic sky, less shrill tones and more defined decorationsthere is better. As a report showed “behind the scene”the teams did not primarily rely on traditional green backgrounds to immortalize the world of blocks, this new aesthetic wants to pay homage to this craft. It must be admitted that some ideas do not lack charmlike when Jason Momoa is at the epicenter of a platform game sequence or that a bird suffers a sad fate in order to become the heroes’ meal.
