“Minecraft Movie” is not a blow. After spending three weeks of weekend at the theater, this film is estimated to have recorded $ 344 million and $ 770 million worldwide. It is the second largest video game film in the box office (so far) and the second largest video of the overwhelming year and history.
Two years after the massive success of “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” ($ 13.6 billion worldwide), it would be safe to say that Hollywood’s video game adaptation was broken in the continued popularity of the “Sonic the Hedgehog” film.

And the superhero film said, “The key to a successful video game film is“ fan service, ”as the superhero film was generally faithful to the source materials in the age of Marvel Cinematic University. In other words, we are faithful to “interest in the characters, the environment and the details of the game”.
In addition, the biggest success story of Dr. Doctor seems to be a child -friendly title such as “MINECRAFT” (adapted from Mojang Studios Sandbox Game, which was first released in 2011) and “Super Mario”. But the most successful game adaptation for adults, that is, “Fallout” and “The Last of Us” are made for streaming and TV.
“MINECRAFT Movie” is also “Chicken Jackie!”
