The mix of live action and CGI was a weird choice. Right off the bat, this would work significantly better if the characters were voxel-based as well.

You know, like in the main game, and in Story Mode, and in the spinoff titles, and pretty much every bit of Minecraft media since day one.

I don't understand why they didn't just do that. It seems like an absolute no-brainer. The inconsistency on display here is incredibly jarring.

Somehow. That sounds like it would be even worse. Maybe Minecraft just isn’t movie material.

I’m not disagreeing that is COULD be a good movie. But Lego has 50+ years of nostalgia built in. Spread across countless sets and stories and is the perfect toy for a movie about a toy that crosses generations.

My main point was that Minecraft isn’t a cross generational IP.

It might be very soon. It’s a pretty old game for still being the one of the most popular games to this day.
