Rowdy screenings of "A Minecraft Movie" are prompting theaters to issue warnings about not clapping, shouting or throwing popcorn during showings.

Warner Bros. and Legendary’s “ A Minecraft Movie ” is causing such a sensation among young moviegoers that one Cineworld theater in Oxfordshire is warning its patrons not to get disruptive or they will be removed from the venue without a refund, BBC News reports. Videos of “Minecraft” moviegoers getting rowdy inside the theater have gone viral on social media, sparking a trend that encourages viewers to clap, shout, throw popcorn and more during pivotal moments of the movie (including Jack Black proclaiming “I am Steve” and yelling “chicken jockey!”). Starring Jack Black, Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers and Sebastian Hansen, “A Minecraft Movie” is based on the popular video game of the same name from Mojang Studios.
