A Minecraft movie has taken box offices by storm but also become a nightmare for theaters due to unruly fan behavior. Since its release last month, fans have been throwing popcorn and other items at the screen in excitement. Even a live chicken was brought to a screening.
Actor Jack Black, one of the film’s stars, recently intervened, asking viewers to behave before a showing. The movie has become a social media sensation, with fans sharing wild reactions to Easter eggs, references, and cameos. To address the chaos, theaters have started displaying disclaimers, such as “please remember to be kind.”
Despite the disruptions, director Jared Hess defended the cinema screening chaos, calling it a “blast.” He said people are making memories at the movies, which is what it’s all about. A Minecraft Movie has become one of the biggest releases of the year, with its opening weekend beating that of any previous video game adaptation.
The film follows four humans pulled into a strange world where they must rely on eccentric in-game character Steve to survive. Fans are excitedly discussing their reactions to the movie and each other’s social media posts.
