Im a big Beatles fan.

I grew up in and around Liverpool, the bands hometown, and they are simply inescapable here.

The best Beatles album is Rubber Soul.

Ill also accept Abbey Road, Sgt.

Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band, or Revolver.

Its simply got to be one of the movie tie-ins that terrible contracts forced the band to make.

And, for my money, Magical Mystery Tour is worse than Yellow Submarine.

The record even irked the band itself!

The Minecraft movie looks terrible.

I just physically shuddered.

I know this is aimed at kids, but the script is awful, too.

We live in a time where gaming adaptations arent automatically panned critically any more.

We have prestige critical darling The Last of Us.

And then… and then we have Borderlands.

But if you could aim for any of the above, why sink to Pandoras level?

The Minecraft movie could have been good.

Heck, it could still be good.

But the trailer doesnt fill me with confidence.

The Beatles rushed out Magical Mystery Tour to appease executives who had written them into exploitative contracts.

“The greatest musical act of all time, The Beatles, had a 25 percent hit rate.”
