The first trailer for the upcoming Minecraft film, titled A Minecraft Movie, arrived last week, giving us a first look at Jason Momoa in a wig chewing lots of scenery. The reactions have been quite mixed—it truly is a baffling creation, and you can't really tell if this movie is going to be a light entertainment classic or a Borderlands-scale disaster.
One man watching on from the sidelines with amusement and interest is Markus "Notch" Persson, the creator of Minecraft. Notch first released Minecraft in 2009, and oversaw its early years of development before, in 2014, selling the game and Mojang Studios to Microsoft in a deal worth $2.5 billion.
