I'm pretty sure A Minecraft Movie has already made more money that the game had made when he made that promise.

Back then he couldn't have foreseen the size of the money printing factory that the game would become.

I remember when Minecraft was sold for $2 billion and people thought it was madness and would never make the money back.

Since then they've made that back on game copies alone, and god only knows how much from movie/merch rights and microtransactions.
