So, sit back and collect all your cool buddies, and put the good things to the next dimensions because this Friday just unveiled the much-rumored-to-death in-theater release of the Minecraft Movie: Block Party Edition in cinemas across the nation. This particular showing is not just for normal. It’s without a doubt a full-out sing-along where you can just scream “”CREEPER, AW MAN” without funny looks (well, maybe a few).
What’s really the Block Party Edition buzz about? It shows the same bonkers adventure Steve was about to face when going off with his chunky companions as they try to save their world from the Ender Dragon, only with some extra hype.
Theatres are completely crazily transformed into mushrooming Minecraft raves, with the same screening projecting all the lyrics so you can sing every song as if you were the protagonist. And let’s admit it, some of the Minecraft movie song slaps harder than some diamond sword crit.
So, everybody heard the news via the official Minecraft Twitter account under an adorable little wolf emoji (because wolves are the OG Minecraft pets, fight me) linking you to where to pick up tickets. Limited screenings will occur at domestic theater locations, so better check those listings quickly before they are snatched as quickly as diamonds in a brand-new cave if you would like to be a part of that craziness.
For what? Getting revealed, that’s Minecraft: the game that really captured the world and somehow defined just how cool building blocks is over any triple-A title. Next, that movie itself was pure nostalgia explosion to kids who actually grew up punching trees for fun. But this? That’s next level, people. Imagine; a whole room of fans shouting, “WE ARE THE PIGLINS”-awesome. Chaotic. Perfect.
If you missed the first showing of this, then have the chance to experience it all over again with fresh hype. But there’s something about singing en masse that makes everything a little different, like this: it’s a concert, but instead of a band, it’s awkwardly trying to survive the Nether.
So mark it on your calendars, suit up in your finest diamond armor (or, at least, a Minecraft hoodie), and get ready to turn theaters into the greatest block party ever. And don’t say we didn’t warn you when that sudden urge strikes to replay Minecraft for the 500th time in your life.
Oh, and pro tip: Full Steve cosplay = automatic victory at the screening. No one is changing my mind on that. It’s already gone live with its tickets and listings, so catch them before they despawn. Catch you and your loudest voice at the game end: Bring your loudest voice and your worst creeper impressions.
