“The film’s experience has changed a lot since he was younger,” Josh Guondeson, marketing director and events in Oviedo Mall in Florida told Fox Business. “And Tiktok has changed it enough.”
“There is a part of me that says this is simply fun. There is another part of me [that says] For poor people who are there in cinemas who have to clean this disaster, it is a disaster, he told Fox Digital “Raymond Arroyo, Fox News” and presenter of the “Arroyo Grande” podcast.
“And obviously, you know a danger of security, because … every time you have 200 young children in a room, and everyone shouts and jumps in 20 directions, it is something like, you know, a lord of the flies of social networks, that is what this is. And I get why they call in the police. day”.
Arroyo added: “I think, in any case, it shows the deep passion and connection that these boys feel this video game and, therefore, have led to the film. And that is part of the reason why it is a great success.”

“A Minecraft movie” has won $ 557 million worldwide so far, led by the established Fandom of the games and the buzz of social networks created by filming a video relationship with “Chickn Jockey” and other memes-lable to game.
The film director, Jared HESS, spoke with Entertainment Weekly about chaotic projections.
“It’s too funny leg. People send me these really hilarious speeches that many teenagers are giving just before the movie. It’s so hysterical, man. I stay awake too late,” he said.
Some projection had a call to the police to break the mischief, what HESS believes that it is a bit too much.

“It’s strange when you have too much fun and the police are called,” HESS told The Outlet. “It is fun because I think it is literally cheating and throwing corn popcorn, which is so fun for me that the police are called for corn popcorn. Yes, it is funny. I have deepened so many fun videos. It is soules and dedicates people that people encourage those moments.
Arroyo is “all for engagement”, comparing the theatrical experience with the midnight projections of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” or Sing-Alongs with “Grease”.
“Singing or applauding in unison or doing silly things at a certain point in a movie that everyone knows and loves … throw popcorn, throw live chickens, throw the boy next to the side, I am not sure that it is the best way of Fionard.
“If there may be a more contained participation, I think everyone would be on board. But at the time you are [causing] A disaster and the injured people, which becomes very different, and I understand why they don’t want to tolerate that. It should not be tolerated. “

Arroyo also sees it as an opportunity to instill life lessons in young children.
“Children need an element of freedom, and need to be a bit wild. That’s a good thing,” he said. “On the other hand, they need to know how and when to control that and discipline me, and I am worried that when you let this son of chaos simply continue and say: ‘Oh, let them throw the popcorn, we live,’ as the director said, that can learn how to control in public environments.
“I worry that when you let this son of Mayhem simply continue and say: ‘Oh, let them throw the popcorn, we love it’ … that can be good for the sale of tickets, it is bad for society.
Jack Black recently tried to dissuade the public of bad behavior by appearing in a Singing in Los Angeles to deliver a warning.
“For today’s presentation from” to Minecraft Movie “, please do not throw printed corn, and neither Lapis Lazuli … and absolutely no chicken rider!” He said in a video shared on social networks.

“I love the public service announcement Jack Black,” Arroyo said. “I think you are also worried about your well -being. These are young children for the most part. And you can see how excited they are because it is a large part of their lives.”
Arroyo also explained why the “Minecraft” mania has been breaking the nation.
“I think that a way to put this in context, so not everyone cannot do not, what was Barbie’s movie for girls and women, this movie is for boys and tens. Child and photos. [kids]They put on the headphones and are talking while playing “Minecraft”. Then it is a … touchstone for them. “
He continued: “It is an exciting moment. It’s like Hollywood that validated his experienced experience, so he is seeing this level of emotion, I think. And it is a call return that is only his subject as a son or his son, which is a community ritual of the young people who say, we have the reference through the parents of thesis and all others.

“But there is a level that you have to say:” Boys, they have crossed a line here. “You need an adult in the room,” Arroyo added.
The National Theater Chain Cinemas is trying to handle part of the emotion by offering a “Chicken Jockey” projection on April 20.
“Customers are invited to dress as their favorite characters from ‘Minecraft’, Whoop, Yelp, Clap and Shout ‘Chickn Jockey!’ Do not break.
The representatives of Warner Bros. Pictures and Cinema United (previously the National Association of Theater Owners) did not respond to the request for comments from Fox News Digital.

Arroyo said that the exaggeration of the movie “Minecraft” seems to be part of a cultural change in the taste of superhero domination of Marvel movies to an increase in video game -based stories.
“This is the predominant culture among young people, particularly for children.” Mario Bros “was a great success. You saw ‘The Last of Us’ in HBO, ‘Fallout’ [on Amazon Prime]. These are video games that have generated spin-offs. Some of them well, some are not so good. But there is this built -in IP and what novels and stories and Broadway come in past years to Hollywood, now video games are rolled with IP and stories that are already known enough to decrease yours “”
He added: “That is dying, and we imagine that children are still excited about that. I don’t think they do it. It doesn’t have the same fascination that is a hero for us.”
