Fuck It. I'm Happy With This I'm Tagging Shit - Tumblr Posts
I don't think the Minecraft movie can be salvaged, but if it did still have to be a Jumanji-esque isekai couldn't it be about some depressed old middle-aged guy rediscovering his childhood and getting in touch with the wonder he experienced playing the game as a kid? Him entering his old world and being found by the villagers he used to trade with, who happily welcome him but also hurriedly explain the situation with the pillagers conquering the world since he left? The pillagers who came from villagers he used to interact with, who felt abandoned when he stopped playing? And the story is about how the world we experience is formed by our actions and our hope and we have to try? To love life as it is? And to form community and connection? And how at the end of the day the universe may be cruel and unforgiving but it's also a place where we can make our dreams realities? And how when it comes to our defeatism and nihilism, sometimes all we need is to reach out and wake up?
