The first teaser for A Minecraft Movie released in September to some decidedly mixed reactions, particularly concerning the CGI and character design and especially Jason Momoa's hair. And yes, there were many ridiculous memes. We were inclined to give it a chance based on the casting of Momoa and Jack Black. Now the full trailer has dropped, and honestly, odd design choices aside—and they are indeed odd—it looks like a perfectly acceptable fun family film and not much more, albeit very light on actual plot.

Probably bc he broke up tenacious d after KG said the next guy shouldn't miss in regards to the Trump assassination attempt. A lot of people thought it was a spineless move.

Whoa really? That's wild.

Edit: Here's a video/article

Wonder if this means he's a trump supporter or if it was really just the violent comment.

I think they've since made up and gotten back together, but I could be wrong. I think it was a number of things. Including, but not limited to:

  1. Trump supporters have guns, and in his eyes that could have put a target on his own back (having said that, they were touring Australia at the time. No one has guns there, and cancelling your tour on a bunch of fans that paid and had set time aside to see them is shitty to them)

  2. He has a lucrative Hollywood career and doesn't want to lose work over an "extreme" view like that

  3. Maybe he was worried about being labeled a terrorist by Trump if he got elected.

I have the feeling it was mainly #2 though.

It's 100% because he was getting all these roles for Hollywood family friendly movies (Kung fu panda 6, minecraft, mario, the dyslexic Santa movie) and didn't want to risk losing that.

Think of all the stupid fucking things jack black has written lyrics in songs about. He kicked a dog to death in anchor man. But your long time friend makes a joke and the lawyers say it's gonna hurt your bottom line, time to break up the band.

I'm just now hearing this, and I agree. It's spineless and I have just lost a lot of respect for JB.
