We thought that the first trailer for A Minecraft Movie looked so bad that it made the Borderlands film seem half-decent, so it's safe to say that our expectations for this film aren't very high. But this negative reception is apparently not a massive surprise to director Jared Hess or producer and senior Minecraft director Torfi Frans Olafsson.
"Look, we knew this game represents so many different things to so many different people," Hess says (via IGN). "We knew that whatever we led out with, there was going to be strong opinions across the spectrum of what people were expecting, what they wanted it to be. Everybody brings their own special personal connection to the game. So we were ready for everything."
