Sounds too close to pubes so they may say blocks instead

Dunno why people would criticize Black’s characters in film. I mean, that’s what he does. Same as Sandler, Ferrell, or any of the rest of the low hanging fruit, cringe, or bro-humor comedy actors. I wouldn’t go to a movie with Jack Black in it and expect Shawshank Redemption.

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 1 points 4 days ago

Jack Black was actually really great in a serious acting role in Bernie

[–] tzrlk@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

That being said, Sandler and Ferrell do some amazing serious stuff.

They can, absolutely. However it’s just not the norm.

Watch Bernie if you want to see Black do a different take. His character is quirky, but there's a lot of depth to him as well.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I do wish we got to see Black use a little more of his range because he can deliver a nuanced comedic character too.

I really, really liked his performance in Bernie. He was silly, but there was also a simultaneous depression, fear, and darkness in his performance.

I wouldn't expect Shawshank Redemption, but I also wouldn't be surprised if that's what was delivered

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

That would be the best joke of his career

[–] riquisimo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 days ago

In the post credits, I'm on it.

Inventory is stored in the cubes

[–] NounsAndWords@lemmy.world 171 points 1 week ago (7 children)

This is one of those movies I will only learn about through memes.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I love the part where Steve says, “IT’S MININ’ TIME!”

[–] MyOtherInstanceIsDown@lemmy.ca 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)
[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I'll get you Hey Steve, if it takes till tomorrow noooooooon. (Forgive my possibly poor memory)

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Your reference lifts my spirits, internet stranger.

ive experienced this effect with the movie titanic

never seen it, know the entire plot through memes/parody

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Me with the entire Star Wars franchise, Harry Potter and The Lord of the rings

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

They're all corporate cash grabs now. Watch what you enjoy and don't let anyone tell you you're missing out on them.

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

No you don't. You only know about flying and French girls. You don't know anything else about the rest of the movie.

[–] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 53 points 1 week ago (25 children)

Titanic is actually worth a watch though. Whereas for Minecraft, I found even the teaser to be a challenge.

"Oof. Right in the blocks"

"What a load of absolute blocks"

"It's the dog's blocks"

Camera zoom into extreme closeup. "oh... blocks".

Yep, that's the one.

[–] scutiger@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Cubic warming is getting out of hand, I swear! I'm sweating my blocks off.

Everything in Minecraft is cubes so expect the cube humor. Testicles are particularly humorous so I have confidence in this prediction.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 43 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I could go either way on this one. There's no great cache of lore to betray, and everybody already sort of plays Minecraft how they want. It actually could work as a fairly generic but charming Jumanji clone.

It could also suck donkey cubes. I'm just saying the licensed IP isn't really going to make or break this one.

[–] telllos@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago
