An Egg's Guide to Minecraft is an American computer-animated adventure comedy film Based on "Minecraft", It's "Hit Movies" Second Movie After Thomas and the 2 Brothers. 
== Plot ==
The plot first starts with Jason roaming around the Overworld of Minecraft, wondering where he is, until he suddenly hears a voice that explains where he is. Jason is confused as to what Minecraft is at first but quickly runs off to a cow. The voice tries to explain to Jason about cows, but while it is talking, he sees a pig and runs off. The voice tries again to explain to Jason about the pig, but Jason questions it about being able to ride the pig. The voice tries to explain how, but Jason doesn't listen to the last part and jumps on the pig, calling him George.
Jason attempts to go on an adventure with George, but since he doesn't have a carrot on a stick, George goes off in a random direction. While they are riding, the voice warns Jason there are dangerous monsters in the night. Jason talks sarcastically to it and rides into a cave. After hearing scary noises, he rides out and decides to build.
This next scene starts with Jason riding George. He proceeds to ask the voice he is hearing how to build a house. The voice explains that he needs to get building materials, but Jason notices that the voice sounded different from the last episode. He questions this and the voice explains that it's just a voice inside his head and it can change whenever it wants, which it proves to its doubtful victim by psychically making him fall off George.
A montage then starts of Jason trying to get building materials to build his house. He gathers wood by throwing George at a tree, dirt (off-camera, probably using the stick we see him using in the same montage) and a piece of cobblestone by using a stick throughout the day. He begins building the house during the process. Meanwhile, he sees a Minecraft egg and is confused.
When the montage ends, Jason places the cobblestone and shows off his house proudly, but the voice reveals it's only the front wall. It shows Jason that night has fallen and mobs are surrounding them. Jason's escape attempt through the door is headed off by a creeper. The mobs close in and the episode cuts as a spider leaps at the camera with Jason screaming.
The scenestarts off with a recap of the ending of the previous episode, where Jason is being surrounded by monsters and a spider jumps at him and George. George saves Jason by throwing him over the mobs, but is eaten and respawns back at where Jason first encountered the voice inside his head. Jason mourns the loss of his pig, but his cry attracts the mobs, which chase him into the forest. He stops to see if they followed him, but the original voice says he's not safe there. 
Jason is happy to hear it, but it tells him to run from the mobs that are catching up. Jason keeps running until he becomes exhausted and suggests that they sleep. They do this in beds in the clearing where they stopped. The next morning, Jason wakes up to see the zombies burning in their beds and the creepers laughing at them until they see him. Jason keeps running until he reaches a ravine, where he is cornered. He proceeds to argue with the voice in his head until he hears an arrow shot, which killed a creeper. The second creeper is killed, revealing Steve, who approaches Jason and points an arrow at him.
As Jason accompanies Steve through the woods, he questions Jason about his appearance, confused by his non-cubic shape. Jason says he doesn't think he's a cube. Steve wonders if he's flat, but he says he's round, which causes Steve to point his sword at him, stating there is no such thing. The voice inside Jason’s head asks Jason to ask Steve where is he taking him. He does and Steve tells him they are going to a nearby village to eat something, but when they arrive a villager tells them that there is a beast attacking the village. Steve hurries over to see, leaving Jason behind. The voice starts to explain about NPC villages, but he gets bored quickly and goes after Steve. The villager shows them the beast and they jump out at it, but as they meet the beast, it is actually a cow.
Steve asks the villager where the beast is, and he points out the cow. Steve says it's just a cow, but the villager believes it's a ferocious beast from the Nether. Steve refuses to kill the cow, and the villager says that if he won't kill it, they will send their greatest warrior to. Their greatest warrior turns out to be just another villager who is equally as terrified of the cow and needs to be pushed out of a house by another villager to face it. The warrior tries to convince the villagers pushing him that he shouldn't face the cow, but they see through it and push him up to it before hiding in the house. 
Steve, Jason, and the first villager watch the confrontation. In accordance with its peaceful nature, the cow doesn't do anything except moo, but the warrior shuffles at it in fear before bumping into its head and dropping to the path, to Steve's frustration. The first villager gives up all hope, and the warrior calls Steve to him and says he's dying, despite the minor collision, and forces Steve to agree. Meanwhile, Jason approaches the cow and thinks it looks familiar. He has a flashback to Part 1 where the voice inside his head introduced him to cows and pigs and somehow becomes confused, thinking cows are pigs and he can ride them.
The villagers come out of hiding, thinking Jason has tamed the beast, and at his explanation, revere him as a pig tamer. The warrior gives Steve a book and tells him to follow him on Twitter before making a dying noise, causing Jason and the cow to mourn him. While looking through the book, Steve discovers it tells how to find Notch.
The next scene starts with a brief flashback of the end of the previous episode. Jason then asks Steve who Notch is. Steve looks in the book, but doesn't find the answer and decides to take Jason to the village library. Once there, he pulls out a book that causes a piston to drop Jason into a pit. Unaware of what just happened, Steve turns around, then realizes he's alone and catches himself talking to himself. Jason falls into a dark room and gasps at the sight of a room full of villagers chanting repeatedly while one of them levitates toward a hole in the ceiling. He says his goodbyes before seemingly disappearing to "the land of Xbox". Jason finds a double chest and opens it, finding lots of diamonds and one eye of ender, and eats all of them. Steve is then shown reading the Minecraft Wiki and being amazed at all the questions it answers, while comparing it to Twilight, which he hates. Jason is hopping along when he steps on a pressure plate that causes part of the wall to open and spit him out, where he finds two villagers arguing over liking spoons and forks until another breaks it up by showing a spork. Just as Steve learns that Notch is the creator, another villager startles him, and it is revealed that he came back with Jason. Steve explains that Notch lives far away and they will need diamonds to get there, but Jason is seemingly unaware of what he ate.
The scene begins with Jason in a cage in the village's courthouse. He proceeds to explain to a villager how he got there, which results in a brief flashback to the end of the previous episode. It is revealed that a villager burst into the library with the report that someone had stolen their diamonds. Jason burped one up, which exposed his guilt. The flashback then ends and the judge calls for order and accuses Jason of stealing a young gentleman's diamonds. 
Jason is confused on which villager it is, and the entire courtroom is offended by his statement that they all look the same. The judge then summons the first witness, a villager who heard a rumor about the theft and believed Jason to be shifty. The next witness is a villager child, who didn't see what happened but thinks Jason should be executed. Steve interrupts before a decision can be taken. The judge asks who he is, and Steve introduces himself as Jason's lawyer. The judge is unable to keep his name straight despite Steve repeating it several times. Fed up, Steve asks the judge if he thinks Jason's case is unfair, and he agrees. He asks for Jason's bail, and the judge says 100 emeralds. After a brief negotiation, the judge agrees to release Jason for 1 block of dirt. Jason and Steve are overjoyed at the victory, but jump and freeze oddly in midair, which the judge comments on.
At sunset, Steve and Jason are traveling through a forest. Jason is tired from walking and complains that he wants to rest. Steve agrees, noticing it's getting dark and reminding him about the "dangerous creatures in the night". Jason gives him the same response he gave the voice inside his head, "Sure there is, and my name's Jason!" Steve gives him a strange look. The voice of SethBling suddenly performs his intro, then corrects to "Welcome back, I'm the voice inside your head!" Jason exclaims joyfully that he recognizes the voice. Steve overhears and asks who he's talking to. The voice prompts Jason to say nobody. Still suspicious, Steve leaves to collect firewood. The voice tells Jason it would be better if Steve didn't find out he was hearing voices. Jason agrees and asks who the voice is again. Steve comes back with a huge stack of wood. Jason wants to know where he got it. He says he found it, but the camera reveals the village with all the wood blocks now missing. That night, Steve and Jason are lying by the campfire. Jason asks how long they have to go. Steve says he doesn't know, but they have to get to Notch because he wants to ask the creator of Minecraft what his purpose is. Jason falls asleep in the middle of his explanation. Suddenly, an arrow flies out of the forest, narrowly missing Steve. More are coming at them, and Steve beats them off with his sword while Jason continues sleeping. One arrow impales Steve's chest, reducing his health to half a heart and bringing him to his knees. While he is weak, an enderman comes and steals the book. Steve protests, but it teleports away and the episode cuts on him fainting.
Steve dreams in flashbacks of what has been happening, followed by some shots of the future of the episode. Steve then wakes up with blood on his chest. He sees a villager walking away with the wood, then notices Jason talking to a cow. Crazed with pain and hunger, he runs toward them and punches the cow. It flies into the air, skids, moos, then tips over. The voice in Jason’s head asks him why he did it, and Jason asks why Steve punched the "pig". Steve comes back eating raw beef, confused by what Jason said, then is healed. Jason asks why Steve is small. He then notices that Jason was floating. Jason looks below him, then the camera reveals him floating because Steve accidentally punched him too. He starts rotating, screaming. He floats to the ground, still screaming. Steve gets annoyed and scolds him, but it has no effect, making him punch Jason again. Jason stops in mid-air and continues to rotate and scream. Steve then has a vision and realizes that Jason was floating because he ate an eye of ender and it is showing him where to find a stronghold, leading him to the enderman with the book.
Jason mad at Steve for punching him. Steve tells Jason that Jason ate the eye of ender back at the village and he had a vision telling him how to use it. Jason then coughs the eye of ender up. Steve teases him that hitting him was fun. Still mad at Steve, Jason hops away. Steve tells Jason not to be like that, but Jason argues with him for punching him. During the middle of the complaint, the ground Steve is on disappears, causing him to fall. Jason looks at the hole, confused. Just then, the grass block Jason is standing on caves in, and he falls as well.
He lands in a minecart which Steve is already in. They both notice the eye of ender in another minecart in front of them. A button behind them auto-pushes, and the two minecarts start racing down the rails. Steve tries to reach the eye of ender, but the minecarts get separated by a fork in the rails. The minecart Steve and Jason are on go on a squared loop-de-loop. The camera passes some blocks, and a villager appears on the minecart. When the camera passes some more blocks, the villager is suddenly gone. Then, the minecart that the eye of ender is on becomes neck and neck with the other minecart. Steve tries again to reach for it, but the eye's minecart turns to where it's further away. Then, both minecarts stop on a rail crossing. A minecart with Segway Creeper passes by. When the lights turn green, the chase continues.
Camera flashes happen as they continue. At a photo stand, many funny pictures of Steve and Jason are shown. Suddenly, their minecart continues on, just as Steve is about to buy one. Then, they get launched into the air by a ramp and fly in slow motion. Meanwhile, a villager with some wood is seen on another minecart heading into a tunnel, but eventually loses all the wood. Steve suddenly has a vision of Jason turning into a Herobrine-like head. A minecart lands on the rails and Jason falls into it, followed by Steve now carrying the eye of ender. They then crash straight into a buffer. Later, Steve wakes up from the crash, with his right arm broken. He tries to wake up Jason, but Jason is still unconscious. As the episode ends, he then notices a giant statue resembling Herobrine.
Steve is crouched over the unconscious Jason, looking up at The Great and Powerful One's statue. Suddenly, floating heads of him appear. Steve is shocked, and expects an attack when they close in, but it proves nothing more than an illusion. To make the situation even more hopeless, Jason briefly wakes up in a delirious state. All at once, a mysterious figure running around in the background catches Steve's attention. He trips it and pins it against a wall one-handed, revealing a scared villager who addresses him as "Powerful One", but also speaks with two different voices.
Jason then wakes up again and thinks he sees a pinball machine. The villager notices Steve's broken arm and tells him to wait while he gets something, running off into a rundown stone building. At first, he seems to climb down a flight of stairs, but when Steve investigates, he finds him digging through a chest in the corner of a room at ground level and talking to his split personality. When he comes up (again miming stairs) carrying a Potion of Healing, he crashes into Steve. This results in an awkward silence because Steve found out what really happened. He offers the potion to Steve, who is wary at first but drinks it and his arm is healed. He asks the villager where this place is. The villager explains that the derelict underground village they crashed in was once a populated area, and the statue was a shrine the citizens made for The Great and Powerful One. 
Steve doesn't know who that might be, but the villager is distracted by his other personality, making Jason wake up and copy him. The villager asks what happened to Jason, who is now foaming at the mouth. Steve claims it as a head injury. The villager asks him why he came. Steve explains their quest for a stronghold, and the villager shows him the entrance beyond the village. Suddenly, he realizes that The Great and Powerful One already knows that. Steve realizes the villager has mistaken him for the figure in the statue and laughs before explaining himself.
The villager is shocked by the revelation, and runs off to confer with his other personality, revealing that Steve looks just like The Great and Powerful One. He gasps as it dawns on him, and says goodbye quickly before running off into the same building as before. Steve thanks him, collects the eye of ender, and lugs Jason to the stronghold. Once they're gone, the villager puts on his hat and reveals his true form, a witch. He goes to summon The Great and Powerful One, telling him the one he spoke of was there. The ground begins to shake and crumble into a pit, and The Great and Powerful One rises out of it and opens his eyes.
Steve wakes Jason at the End portal room. Jason is confused, but Steve explains where they are. Jason thinks he got them there by himself, and asks how they activate the End portal. Steve drops the eye of ender into the only empty portal frame, activating it. He counts up to three and they try to jump in, but a sudden explosion of black smoke throws them back. The Great and Powerful One appears within it and calls Steve his brother, summoning a group of mobs into the room. Jason panics at the sight, and he and Steve bolt from the room with the mobs chasing them down the stronghold's tunnels. Jason is frantic to get answers and asks Steve why people like One Direction. Steve stops in confusion, but seeing the mobs catching up, continues to run before being thrown back by a white light. Next shot, Steve wakes up in a white room, sitting on a bench beside Jason, who reveals that the game is updating. The mobs are also there, but prove to be no threat. Jason catches a creeper staring at him, and it starts to make faces for him to laugh at. The update ends and all of them wake up in the tunnels. Steve asks if they should keep running, and the mobs confer briefly before nodding. Next, Steve and Jason are running away once again. Jason asks if Steve knows where they're going, but he doesn't. The floor falls, and just as they think they're safe, it happens again, but it doesn't stop the mobs. Steve emerges from the tunnel on the side of a ravine, but Jason blindly knocks him off the edge. It is revealed that Steve caught himself with his diamond pickaxe just in time. Jason apologizes and Steve climbs up, but the mobs are catching up. The two race across a bridge over the ravine, but another group of mobs at the other end traps them. The Great and Powerful One reappears and asks where they're going, causing Jason, Steve, and two zombies to gasp, and Villager #37 to appear out of nowhere and call it a dramatic ending.
It gets to Jason and Steve gasping, but before the zombies are supposed to gasp, Steve picks up Jason and throws him to the other side of the ravine, shouting at him to run. His efforts are useless, as Jason turns around and is revealed to be possessed by The Great and Powerful One. Steve is shocked, but his brother orders him to come with him. Steve asks him or Jason. Villager #37 is confused, and The Great and Powerful One is frustrated. 
Steve invites him to leave a message after the beep, breaking the bridge and falling into the depths. Jason wakes up and realizes what just happened. Suddenly, Steve screams out a long beep from the bottom. Confused, the mobs look back at The Great and Powerful One. He tries to leave a message, but then realizes he's no good at these things. Villager #37 suggests he do an evil laugh, which he does while asking Steve to call him. Villager #37 peers into the ravine, asking if he survived. An unseen answering machine announces one new message, which is Steve swearing. An enderman teleports to the edge, and upon orders from The Great and Powerful One to get Steve, disappears again.
Jason jumps in and asks why he's doing it and who he is. He taunts Jason, asking if he recognizes him. A series of the voices in Jason's head from previous episodes play, and he realizes that it was The Great and Powerful One all along. The latter insults him, calling him simple. The discussion is briefly interrupted by the enderman reappearing with Steve, who struggles indignantly to break free. The Great and Powerful One promptly heads it off by ordering him to sleep. Jason is shocked, and The Great and Powerful One reveals that Jason is the reason he is back in Minecraft. The egg is confused, but the evil being decides his usefulness has ended. He commands his mobs to kill Jason and Steve's captor to return its unconscious prisoner to the End portal. Jason flees the mobs into the tunnel, Villager #37 decides he wants to follow them, and The Great and Powerful One disappears. At the very end of the episode, an oink echoes out of the tunnel.
The scene starts where Jason and George are running away from the mobs. Jason is so happy that George came back. They then hide in a cavern. Suddenly, footsteps are heard. Thinking it is a mob, they get ready to take it down. They tackle the mob, which turns out to be a villager. Jason introduces himself and George, telling the villager that they were going to rescue Steve. Shocked that they want to fight The Great and Powerful One, he rejects their request for help until George growls at him. The villager then replies that they need supplies. Jason agrees, as long as it's quick. They head towards the village, and along the way the villager introduces himself as Villager #37 Suddenly, they are surrounded by mobs. Just then, an arrow flies by and takes out a zombie. Two more hit another zombie and a zombie pigman. Jason thinks that it was Steve. But it turns out to be Alex. She pulls out her sword and takes out each mob one-by-one. When she swings her sword to take out the enderman, it disappears. It continues to teleport. Alex throws her sword, and the enderman teleports into the sword's range, causing it to be stabbed. Alex pulls her sword out and approches Jason, George, and Villager #37, pointing it at Jason.
The episode begins with a recap of previous episodes. Once the recap ends, an enderman teleports through the End, heading for a massive building, revealed to be the headquarters of The Great and Powerful One. He asks if it got the diamonds he wanted, but it shakes its head. He orders the enderman to go get them. It leaves and he wonders what he was doing. Upon his realization, Steve is revealed strapped to a table, still under the effects of his brother's sleeping command and unaware that he is trapped.
In the woods, Jason asks Alex for help, but she doubts him. Despite this, she chooses to follow him, George, and Villager #37 to get answers. Jason is conveniently unable to tell her why they need diamonds because the guidebook was stolen, saying Steve's nicer than her. Alex turns to Villager #37, but does not believe his claim that Jason threatened him with George or that the pig is a beast. Villager #37 asks her name, and at first she introduces herself as The Spirit of Vengeance and Death. Villager #37 and Jason look strangely at each other, and Alex writes it off as a joke and explains that she wants adventure and diamonds. She wonders if The Great and Powerful One (whose existence she still doubts) or Steve will have any. Suddenly, Villager #37 sees an creeper walking in the woods, and he snaps at them that his species' common name is racist. Alex warns Jason that in case he's telling the truth, no mobs will be allowed to sight him or they'll tell The Great and Powerful One, and shoots the creeper, causing him to explode. Villager #37 suggests reasoning with the mobs as an alternative. Alex asks where they're going, and he says his village.
The next morning, the group are suddenly at the edge of the sand village, with Villager #37 confused until a nearby villager explains it was a jump cut. Jason snaps at him to go away, only focused on saving Steve, which Alex comments on. At the End, Steve wakes up groaning in pain. The Great and Powerful One taunts him offscreen, and slowly approaches him as he says they're going to get closer. At the end of the episode, Steve lets out an agonized scream, accompanied by white smoke pouring out of the headquarters.
The episode begins with a recap. Next, Jason, Alex, and George ask the villagers to join them in battle and to get Steve back. Many of the villagers refuse until Alex tells them if they don't, The Great and Powerful One will destroy their lands. The villagers murmur until a kid stands up and says he will take the ring to Mordor, but one villager says they won't be doing that yet. Nine villagers dressed as the Fellowship of the Ring, apparently supposed to be in the parody, sigh in disappointment. One villager says that The Great and Powerful One won't hurt them because they're just NPC's and the villagers begin to refuse again. Then Alex threatens them that she will burn the village down. They gasp and agree, even though they can't fight, Alex promises to teach them. A band consisting of Element Animation employees wander through town, wondering how come they've never done a "montage" before, but decide to do their first one when they see the stage Jason, Alex, and George are on. They perform the song "Block by Block" near the town while clips of Alex training the villagers are shown. 
She tries to show them how to attack armor stands with practice weapons, but they're too nervous and she convinces them by tripping one of them. To her frustration, they attack with their eyes closed and trip. Next, she orders one of them to slay a cow, but he's too scared to even hit a flower. The villagers are assigned to read "How to Not Suck at Everything", lift barbells, and climb a high wall using their tools, but they fail at this due to their arms being connected. At the blacksmith, they are fitted with iron helmets. By evening, all they can do is climb a one-block-high wall and run past a cow while holding an axe. 
That night, once the montage is over, Alex stops the training for the night, and the band moves on. Jason complains that it's taking too long and leaves with George to get Steve without help. In the End, Steve is shown unconscious again on the same table, but unstrapped. He wakes up, discovers he is untied, and sits up.
After the recap, a villager sneaks through the sand village while everyone else is sleeping. When he passes too close to Alex, she jumps awake and threatens him with a sword, asking what he's doing. Startled, he claims he's looking for Jason. Alex thought he was with him and complains that he better not lose "her" diamonds. The scout is briefly skeptical, but the alarm bell interrupts them. Alex charges outside to find the other villagers panicking and an army of mobs approaching out of the desert. She orders the villagers to get into position, which they do. One of them is dressed as Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid and commences infiltration. Alex realizes the mobs want Jason and orders the scout to find him. The villagers make as if to attack the monsters, but instead retreat and allow themselves to be attacked, despite Alex's protests. In the meantime, Snake receives a call from Colonel, but he doesn't really have a walkie-talkie. Another villager almost reveals his true identity, but Snake tranquilizes him. Alex yells at the villagers, but this has no effect as one lets himself be zombified in her line of sight. She sighs and climbs a roof to start shooting. One villager gets an idea to light the beacon, which results in a series of woodpiles being ignited on the mountaintops in a parody of Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. It ends when a sentry reports that the Sand village needs help, but he is in the Sand village.
While the scout is searching for Jason, a child pokes him with a sword and brags to his father. The scout snaps at him for mistaking him for a monster. The father fails to recognize him, and he says he's looking for Jason. The child reports his departure.
Meanwhile, in the woods, Jason and George find a fork in the path. Jason asks George the way to the End portal, but he doesn't know. A rustle in the grass startles them, which sounds big but is only a rabbit. Immediately after, they are surrounded by a small group of mobs.
After a sponsor from Honey, the fighting at the Sand village continues. A zombie looks under a cardboard box, but it's empty. Next to it is another box which Snake is under and he runs off into the desert. Meanwhile, Alex is startled by an enderman appearing right behind her and tries to fight, but it's too fast until a zombie distracts it by communicating. Alex tries a sneak attack, which is ineffective as the enderman teleports them both around the world before sending her flying into the sand back in the desert. It leaves and Alex realizes it's too late for the Sand village.
Meanwhile, George breaks out of the circle of mobs, picks up Jason, and makes a run for it, until the enderman appears in their path. George skids to a stop, causing Jason to roll off, and is picked up by the enderman. Jason tries to save him, but is knocked on the head by a zombie pigman and captured as well.
The villager scout sees the mobs carrying the unconscious Jason and the caged George through the woods, and is stared at by the enderman until it leaves. The mobs at the village leave, and the few surviving villagers celebrate their victory as Alex comes running back. The scout returns and Alex shows him what happened, but he reports they have lost as Jason is captured. Alex decides to leave and get him with the scout tagging along, ordering the other survivors to stay behind.
In the End headquarters, Jason wakes up and gasps. A shadowy figure emerges and reveals itself as Steve, but he has now lost his memory and does not recognize Jason, pointing his sword at him.
