Idaho hasn't been featured in a lot of movies but when it does happen people get quite excited. Take Napoleon Dynamite for example, that movie is one of the best ever made and it was filmed in Idaho! And now the director has set out to make another movie: A Minecraft Movie.

A Minecraft Movie is one of the biggest movies to hit theaters this year. Everyone has been going to see what this movie could possibly be about and have been pleasantly surprised to find out that it's actually really entertaining for people of all ages.

But the craziest part of seeing the movie that was completely unexpected was the setting of A Minecraft Movie.

A Minecraft Movie is surprisingly set it Idaho! No one expected that plot twist and was surprisingly shocked when it was made to seem like Idaho. The first time that this was noticeable was when the cars driving by all had Idaho license plates. Of course this could just be a coincidence but things were quickly cleared up when they talked about moving to Chuglass, Idaho.

 

 

A giant Chuglass Idaho welcome sign was featured in the movie where they are known for selling potato chips. If that wasn't enough there was even a signature cologne featured in the movie that they say was made in Boise.

Of course, Chuglass Idaho is not a real place but they were definitely trying to make it seem like it was and if a realm to Minecraft were to open anywhere in the country we're glad it was in Idaho.
