There is a quite at the beginning of A Minecraft movie That, for those who do not know, it would happen completely unnoticed. While Steve (Jack Black) presents the newly arrived humans to his village, the young teenager Henry sees a pig with a crown. Question: “Is it any kind of king?” And for those who know it, the cries begin.
If you are a follower of Minecraft If you are a YouTube fan or have a child, you will surely have heard of Technoblade. This youtuber, whose real name was Alexander, tragically died of cancer in 2022, with only 22 years. Technoblade, a member of Dream SMP, a group that included many of the most important names in the sector, became known for its incredible skill in the game and having a YouTube channel with 11 million subscribers.
Since his premature death, Technoblade has been canonized by his contemporaries and followers, and his name is pronounced with a lovely reverence. My own son, who is only entering … Minecraft YouTube, since the death of Technoblade, has learned this reverential tone and almost whisper its name. The point is that it was a great YouTuber, respected by his teammates and someone who actively fought against fame to protect his family. (His name was only known after his death, and his last name is still unknown). One of the many lines of text that may appear when starting Minecraft says “Technoblade never dies!”
So let’s go back to that scene in A Minecraft movieThe undergiving pig that Henry Ve is a reference to Technoblade, whose avatar in the game was a biped pig with a crown (as seen in the image at the top of this article). The character asks: “Is it a kind of king?”
“No,” says Jack Black, before a long pause. Then, seriously, he adds: “It’s a legend.
You can see the moment in something doubtful origin in the following video:
Before they said the line, just when the pig appeared on the screen, around me in the cinema I heard the children say: “Technoblade!” With absolute delight in their voices. My son bowed towards me and whispered with very open eyes: “That was Technoblade! That pig was Technob! When he explained the reference to my wife in the parking lot when leaving, and then solemnly pronounced the phrase” No, it is a legend, “she cried. I had never heard of him before, but the sincerity and the moving nature of the homer I write.
It turns out that it only appears in the movie thanks to the child who plays Henry. According to director Jared HESS by CollidingSebastian Hansen approached him during the preparation of the movie and said: “Look, there is an incredible Minecraft “A player named Technoblade died and I would love to be able to honor him in some way in the movie.” HESS says he spoke with the design team and resolved everything.
It is fun to note that there were many other Easter eggs hidden there. Minecraft unconditional fans, like a totem of eternity in the Steve collection that would make the characters much easier if they only knew what it is. And there was another Murmullo theater excited when Jens Bergensten of Mojang appears as a silent waiter in a time of blinking or getting lost. But of all the fleeting winks of the film to this or that, the tribute to Technoblade is the most special and, without a doubt, the one that will make more lips tremble with emotion.
