Jack Black still puts in so much effort in the new Minecraft film clip

As the year Jack Black appeared in video game movies – and as a result, the year we all got a movie Few Tired of Jack Black – things continue apace as we continue to get new excerpts from Black’s latest, rather loud appearance: his turn as the mute default player character Steve from the indie video game hit Minecraftwhich has now been decided not a silent protagonist. After the bombastic teaser that was released at the beginning of September, there is now a new clip from the film, which has been in development for an extremely long time Napoleon dynamiteThis is Jared Hess. Will be shown this weekend Minecraft Live event, the actual portion of the film appears at 4:50 in the video below.


We’ll give the film and Hess this: The actual look of the thing isn’t bad, with the clip in question showing off a pretty clever take on the game’s core crafting mechanic. (If you watch the longer clip, there’s a long conversation between Hess and Torfi Frans Olafsson of Mojang Studios that’s actually kind of cool, for an extremely nerdy value of cool, as they talk about things like how big each is The games’ iconic blocks should be in proportion to the actual human bodies of their stars.) So the strenuous part is simply Black and, to a lesser extent, Jason Momoa partially trying to achieve his energy. (Sebastian Eugene Hansen seems largely innocent and caught between them; sorry, kid.) We suspect that will be the case A Minecraft movie Experience as a whole: I look at some pretty pictures and then get snapped out of it every time the adult actors start talking/yelling. Say what you like about Black’s performance, though: there’s definitely a lot of it.
