    I guess we can expect a lot of dry humor or slightly funny punchlines delivered in a dead-pan style.

    A Minecraft movie? I'm really curious to see what's going to be about. Not too excited about the director though, but I'll not jump to conclusions until the movie is actually out.

    I'm not even sure how they expect to make a movie out of an open sandbox game with the most story being a blurb at the end. Same for Telltales Minecraft games coming out.

    Also not familiar with this guys work just thought I'd share this.

    There's probably going to be some kind of animation but I think they can come out with a pretty good plot. Curious to see how it turns out in the end!

    McElhenney is hilarious, so that gives me some hope. Also, obviously the movie is going to be animated, FuZyOn.

    I am just wondering what the plot will be centered about. I bet the main character's mission will be to destroy the ender dragon with his pals.

    Well, that's probably it. Since there really isn't much more, honestly. Or exploring a new world, trying to live, and ending with the Ender Dragon.

    Yeah, or he can somehow enter the creative game mode and wreck havoc.

    The ender dragon is the night man! And we are the Dayman!

    Ender Dragon fight is also the only way I see this movie ending. Still kind of lukewarm at best on a Minecraft movie.

    Just because the creator of sunny is involved it doesn't mean you can expect similar humor. They gotta make this audience friendly enough. Though the idea of an adult oriented minecraft movie with dry humor is enticing.

    Oh no. I'm gonna get dragged to this by my brothers. Minecraft has no significant plot line at all, how on earth can they make a movie?

    Well, Rob isn't that bad of a director, but his jokes have always been... dry. However, given that this movie is set to appeal to young kids, I am sure the jokes will seem funny to them, and that this movie will be a smash hit.
