Minecraft fans have hilarious ideas for Steve's last name

Following the release of the Minecraft teaser trailer, Steve is seemingly back in the spotlight. Jack Black is portraying the iconic character and fans are not too pleased. From his appearance and attire to the lines in the trailer, much has been criticized. This has resulted in a plethora of jokes and memes.

Minecraft player and Redditor u/estebanana1546 shared an image of Steve’s face and asked for his last name. They guessed it was “Steve Dabilder,” which is a reference to the popular stop-motion show Bob The Builder. The moniker also refers to Steve’s building abilities.

After years of anticipation and expectations, fans were left with major disappointment following the release of the teaser trailer. Multiple forums are filled with fans scrutinizing the trailer.

While some are bemoaning the oversaturated look of the world, others are delving into the appearance of characters and mobs. Even Steve’s character, played by Jack Black, bears little to no resemblance to him. The movie will hit US theaters on April 4, 2025.
