Minecraft Movie Director Defends Turning the Popular Video Game Into Live-Action

A Minecraft Movie has faced a wave of backlash and questions from fans. Why is it live-action? Why is Jason Momoa wearing a silly wig? Just… why?

While fans were skeptical when the movie was announced, the endless 64 stacks of fan-made videos, short films, and music video parodies on YouTube gave them hope that a multi-million dollar movie could be good.
