I really can't decide; there's some built in momentum because OMG MY CHILDHOOD among zoomers and such but it also feels bleak and deflated and is chasing a weary gimmick.

I feel like my kiddo is a solid barometer for what will hit the pop culture.

His take on the Minecraft movie is he doesn't like the way they screwed up the scale, the crafting, and the weird animation/live action hybrid....but he's still super excited for it.

I think it will be a decent hit, turn a profit...then completely evaporate and leave no lasting cultural impact.
