Cineworld issues warning to UK movie fans in special screenings announcement

Cineworld has issued a warning to UK movie fans as part of a special screenings announcement.

4DX screenings for the blockbuster film “A Minecraft Movie” have been confirmed by the cinema chain on April 13th. Viewers are invited to cheer, holler, applaud, shout “Chicken Jockey”, and don costumes of their favorite Minecraft personas while enjoying the show.

On the other hand, it’s been emphasized on their official site and social media platforms that spectators should refrain from tossing items, creating disorder, and filming during the screening of the movie. Filming is explicitly forbidden while the film is being played.

“That’s piracy, folks,” the chain explained.

The fervor among fans for a “Minecraft Movie” surpasses the impressive start it had during its opening weekend, which not only met but exceeded predictions, positioning it as the fourth highest-grossing film of the year so far.

Many accounts detail audiences enthusiastically synchronizing their applause, cheers, and speech with the on-screen characters.

Whenever the Chicken Jockey makes its grand entrance on my gaming screen, I can’t help but feel the excitement ripple through the room. It’s become a spectacle where everyone whips out popcorn, ready to cheer and record the moment for their TikTok feed as part of this popular trend.

Comparisons have been drawn between the audience behavior during a showing of “A Minecraft Movie” and that seen in films like “Rocky Horror Picture Show” and “The Room”. Similar to these movies, lines from the dialogue are often repeated by viewers, and items may be tossed around in an interactive experience.

The distinction lies in the fact that those movies are designed for interactive screenings by a particular audience, while a screening of “A Minecraft Movie” takes place numerous times daily, catering to a general public.

Due to the energetic crowds, complaints about disturbances have arisen, leading some cinemas to post notices cautioning patrons about inappropriate conduct.

Despite ongoing debates about whether the movie’s lighthearted or antisocial elements, the production company is already considering a sequel. Director Jared Hess hinted that the voice cameo in the post-credits scene might significantly influence this potential next installment.

A Minecraft Movie is in cinemas now.
