в интервью The Salt Lake Tribune

You’re about to make “Minecraft.” But it’s not your first brush with a big-budget movie.

 

Jared: “I took a couple of Marvel meetings. … We’ve got five different animated movies that we wrote for different studios. … It’s a miracle that any movie gets made, ever. So many stars have to align — schedules, money, budget, script, concept. So we’re constantly pitching on stuff.”

 

Jerusha: “In between all of these five movies that he’s directed, we’ve written another five that didn’t get made. It is just the business. You’re always just a little bit hustling. … And, meanwhile, let [Jared] direct a documentary series. Let’s make a short movie. You have to spread yourself out.”

 

How did “Minecraft” happen?

 

Jared: “I was developing a movie with Legendary Pictures, and that one didn’t happen. They called me and said, ‘Hey, we’re going to be working with Warner Bros. on “Minecraft.” Do you have any interest?’ And our kids play that game endlessly. I’m, like, ‘Yeah.’ And they said, ‘Come with a take,’ and I did, and had a meeting. Trying to adapt something that doesn’t have a story — it’s an open sandbox game. … I like the challenge. There’s got to be a fun, ridiculous movie here. And there is.”

 

Jerusha: “Jared was directing ‘Thelma the Unicorn,’ and we’re both writers on that, so we were really busy with that. We were directing that little short film, and were really busy on that. He was doing ‘Muscles & Mayhem,’ and he was really busy on that. And then he was in ‘Minecraft’ school every day.”

 

Jared: “We’ve got Jason Momoa. We’ve got Jack Black. Who else has been announced?”

 

Jerusha: “There’s a funny lady, who has not been announced.”

 

Jared: “We’re shooting in Auckland, New Zealand, on these ginormous soundstages. … The production designer is the guy that did all the ‘Lord of the Rings’ stuff, Grant Major.”

 

Jerusha: “Our cute little 20-year-old was working there last year, working on the crew in the art department. He was sawing square carrots all day. He was, like, ‘Is this what a movie is?’ He loved it, though. ‘I made a pumpkin, Mom.’”

 

Jared: “I think anybody that does any IP, they just want to avoid an ugly ‘Sonic’ situation.” [The first trailer for the “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie angered fans, because Sonic’s computer-animated teeth looked too real.] “I just can’t disappoint the 10-year-olds, or they’re going to murder us.”

Даже не знаю, как адекватно эту пиксельную фигню перенести на экраны…

Даже с супер годным кастом
