'I was surprised, because I loved the trailer': Jack Black didn't get all the hate for the first Minecraft movie teaser

'I was surprised, because I loved the trailer': Jack Black didn't get all the hate for the first Minecraft movie teaser


I was perhaps a bit uncharitable when the first Minecraft movie teaser dropped in 2024, and by "uncharitable" I mean that I may have sent off several emails to the Hague to complain about the commission of crimes against humanity. No matter how plainly bad that teaser is (and look, I know it's for kids but it is bad and I will not be stepping down from this hill), the strength of the negativity caught one notable person off-guard: A Minecraft Movie star Jack Black. To be fair to Black, it's possible that the reaction to the trailer (and more specifically his role in it) was amplified because it's his followup to Borderlands, the 2024 big screen catastrophe that earned him not just one but two Razzie Award nominations.
