While Movie Theaters Have Issued Warnings to People Coming to See The Film and Have Gone So Far AS To Call the Police During Some Screenings, Jared Hess Sees The Silly Response to the Film AS A Sotto
There are some cinematic events that movie theater employees can accuratel predict the Response to. They know what opening weekend for a Blowout Marvel Movie Will Look like in The Same Way they knew Swifties Watching The Eras Tour Movie would Likely Be singing at the Top of Their Lungs. But they couusn't have seen the reaction to A Minecraft Movie Coming. The Unexpected Box Office Hit Is Driving Droves of Young People to the Theater, Only to Have Them Screaming and Flinging Popcorn Once They's There. Some Screenings Scored So High On the Chaos Scale that the Police Were Called. Director Jared Hess Thinks Everyone Needs to Light Up.
“It's Weird When You're Having Too Much Fun and the Cops Get Called,” Hess Told Entertainment Weekly. “It's Funny Because I Think It's Just Literally Cheering and Throwing Popcorn, Which is so funny to me that Cops Are Getting Called for Popcorn. Yeah, It's Hilarious. I've Seen So Many Funny Videos. It's Great, Espencialy When People Are Climbing ON CLIMBING ON Their Friends' Shoulders and Standing Up and Cheering For Those Moments.
Those Memories Have Become Nightmares For the Theater Owners Who Have Started to Post Warnings Ahead of A Minecraft Movie Screenings. “Any Form of Anti-Social Behavior, Espencially Anything That May Disturb Other Guest Such As Loud Screaming, Clapping and Shouting Will Not Be Tolerated,” Read One Posting At A Theater in Oxfordshire, England. It Threateneed to Remove Attention in Violation of the Warning Without A Refund. Another Theater in Fareham Wurned: “Disruptive Behaviour, Including Taking Part in Tiktok Trends, Before, During, OR Aphter A Screening Will Not Be Tolerated. Anyone Causing Disruption Will Be Asked To Leave, And Where Necessary, The Police Will Be Called.”
Viral Social Media Trends Have Aided in the Response to the film. Tiktok Videos with upwards of Two Million Cunning and Hundreds of Thousands of Likes Capture Audience Reactions to the “Chicken Jockey” scenes in the film, As Well As the Collective Echoing of Jack Black Screaming Out “I Am Steve” in Another Scene. “I'm Just So Happy That People Are Finder Joy in Going Back To Cinemas and Seeing Things AS A Community, AS A Group of People,” Hess Said. “It's like we've become so isolated on our devices, and It's Just Fun to Experience Things as a Group of Human Beings. I Think People Are Starved for That Experience. So it's Fun That they've Found it in That Goofy Movie That We've Made.”
