Minecraft Movie Pays Tribute to Technoblade. Amid the chaos of creepers, crafting, and comedy, the Minecraft movie delivers a moment that’s silenced theaters and brought longtime fans to tears.
Midway through the film, in the bustling Midport Village, protagonist Henry (Sebastian Hansen) spots a pig wearing a golden crown. He turns to Steve, voiced by Jack Black, and asks:
“Is that some kind of king?”
Steve pauses—just for a beat—and says with quiet reverence:
“No. That’s a legend.”
In that instant, the movie shifts. The crowned pig isn’t just an Easter egg—it’s Technoblade, immortalized.
A YouTube icon, a Minecraft champion, a symbol of brilliance and resilience—Technoblade passed away in 2022 after a battle with cancer. But his legacy lives on. His avatar? A crowned pig.
In a blockbuster packed with laughs and pixelated action, it’s this tender, seconds-long tribute that’s striking the deepest chord with fans.
💬 “Technoblade never dies. Not in our hearts.”
