A sing-along edition feels like the natural next step for a movie this memeable—honestly surprised they didn’t drop this version sooner. Between Jack Black’s antics and the built-in chaos of Minecraft fans, theaters are about to become glorified meme servers.

Jack Black’s chaotic energy and meme-worthy songs are the perfect fit for a Minecraft sing-along—this might just be the most unhinged (and fun) way to experience the movie yet. Warner Bros. really knows how to turn a hit into a full-blown blocky celebration.
