Block-like Video Game Minecraft is Set to be a Blockbuster

The ever-popular video game Minecraft is coming to a theater near you with the Minecraft Movie.

After the recent box office success of The Lego Movie, it comes as no surprise that the ever-popular video game Minecraft, which is basically a digitized LEGO realm, would follow a similar path. The game's creator Markus Persson confirmed the adaptation when he tweeted, "Someone is trying [to] leak the fact that we're working with Warner Brothers on a potential Minecraft Movie. I wanted to be the leak!"

Avid Minecraft users spend months building block-like architectural landscapes within the game, but will now be able to view more astounding ones without the timeliness. Roy Lee will reportedly be producing the film. He also produced The Lego Movie.

Is this the future of the gamer world?
