I’ve unearthed two of these reworkings so far. Both automatically look more charming than the movie, in the same way that having a nail pulled out of your leg is preferable to hammering another one in. The below is from Alumio, a 3D artist, modeller and animator who’s known for making Five Nights At Freddy’s videos using Minecraft’s blocky visuals.

And here’s one from QdAndy, who caveats that “I challenged myself to make it as fast as possible and thats why some of the stuff looks kindaaa weird? also its the best my potato Pc could do without exploding”.

All these shenanigans aside, I’m hoping that modders, texture and skin pack creators will start applying some of the more… obscure Minecraft aesthetics and traditions to what we’ve seen of the movie. Where are myglitchpackreinventions? Please, Minecrafters, save us from Jack Black, Jason Momoa and all their doings. I keep stumbling on screengrabs of different points inthe Minecraft movie sheep’s baaing animation, and it’s like stumbling on images of the five stages of grief.
