Minecraft movie rights acquired by Warner Bros  Minecraft has
turned into something of a sensation, and Hollywood seems to
have taken notice. Warner Bros has reportedly acquired the
rights to a film adaptation.  Deadline first reported on the
deal, and Minecraft creator Markus 'Notch' Persson confirmed it
with a tweet. According to the report, Roy Lee (producer for The
Lego Movie) is attached to produce this block-based adaptation
as well. Jill Messick (Mean Girls) is said to be producing in
some capacity too. Minecraft may not have much of a plot, but
then neither does Lego and that movie still worked out pretty
well.  It's important to note that acquiring the film rights is
only the first step to active production, and even movies that
are fast-tracked tend to take a couple of years to complete, and
can still be cancelled. This is just the start of the process,
so it may be some time before we actually see Creepers on the
silver screen.
