I mean my Minecraft Skin isn’t a normal skin and during early adventure, I slap that on, what I find. Also hats (from a mod).
Most people are laughing but I think it could get good, if they do it right. They actors need to reflect the wide playerbase. Jason Momoa could be the old school vanilla survival player, that played up to the early release version. The boy could be a modern MP minigame server player. Jack Black could be the Griefer/Anarchie player.
There is potential to make it good but they could easily screw this up. Minecraft is a game without a story and the only story Minecraft has, is from the players (and viewers of Minecraft YouTubers, without poiting out a specific one, due to obvious regional differences. I mean would you know a German Minecraft YouTuber and get the references?) and their memories. Without that, I don’t see how this can get good.
Going meta would’ve been a great idea, actually. Imply that every Minecraft player’s character is still around, doing their thing. The guy who’s been there since Alpha can intone, “I was here before man felt hunger… my temples are so ancient, they no longer face the sunrise… I am twenty-seven years old.”

If they do it that way, I’d watch it, and I’ve never played Minecraft.
