The 'Minecraft' movie has become more than just a box office hit—it’s ignited a bizarre new trend in cinemas where audiences are erupting with laughter and excitement at a specific moment in the film. The movie is projected to earn over $140 million domestically during its opening weekend, with an additional $100 million-plus from international markets.

The Viral 'Chicken Jockey' Trend

The trend began when the film’s trailer introduced a memorable line: Jack Black’s character, Steve, shouts “Chicken jockey!” during a humorous scene where he and Jason Momoa’s character face off in a boxing ring against a blocky Minecraft chicken ridden by another character. This quirky moment, a nod to the popular video game, has become a crowd favorite, causing cinemagoers to shout the phrase in unison whenever it appears on screen.

The trend has gone viral, with videos shared on social media platforms like TikTok, where audiences—especially kids and teenagers—chant the line loudly, often disrupting the film’s flow with their enthusiastic reactions.

Police Called To Theatre Over 'Chicken Jockey' Trend

The excitement over the 'Chicken Jockey' reached a peak in one theatre when the raucous crowd’s behavior led to an unexpected turn of events. According to posts on social media, police were called to a cinema after cinemagoers became disruptive during the Chicken Jockey scene. Videos online show that cops removed a few people from the theatre after the frenzy, leading to cheers from other movie watchers.
