@[USERNAME REMOVED] you MIGHT have to go into hell..
We know nothing for sure.
If that is so, then why would he bring it up? Sure, to add suspense. But I think this does the exact opposite - we already have tons of mystery surrounding lanterns, and this reveals some very likely information about them.

I think notch is actually some type of succubus that feeds on the drama and anguish of the minecraft fans. Only thing that explains the amount of grief that comes out of almost every thing he posts. The trolls on the boards are just his minions for when he needs a snack.
In all seriousness, having to go to hell to get materials for lanterns seems kind of ridiculous. Maybe they'll burn enemies like the sun or something.
People keep saying crap like this when they don't even know what's involved in the first place. You have no idea how difficult it is to get into hell so saying it's ridiculous is...well...ridiculous because you have nothing on which to base that assumption.
Getting into hell might not be that difficult. Or the necessary material that's found in hell may be extremely plentiful, such that one trip would be sufficient to get you supplies for a lot of lanterns. OR!!!... you might not have to go to Hell at all since that's what "might" means.
No... just... No. That was in all meanings a joke, he was just kidding around. I did it a lot when I hosted my own server. We won't have to go into hell.

So if getting lamps requires going to hell? wait notch LOGICAL
ingredients for a lamp
You know why we need to go into hell to get the stuff?
torches run out, if you put a torch in a box, it's called a lantern, but theres still a torch inside and torches run out. we probably need to get that glowing material in hell worlds as it is bright and could last forever.

That is how i am gonna deal with it because i am scared of the minecraft monsters x]
Hell in peacefull will still have mobs, or so I have heard.
No.. just.. no.
If people are too scared to play with mobs on, they shouldn't be forced if they want to go down to Hell, for some Hell-minerals or lantern material. Peaceful players should not be forced out of getting bows or TNT as much as they shouldn't be forced out of infinite light sources.
I think that Notch said that because he is not yet sure how he's going to make lanterns. He wants to make it not too hard, but still somewhat of a challenge.
I think that that's a terrible idea. Hell is supposed to be the most dangerous place in minecraft ever. To go skipping around to get some magic mineral would be too insane, unless the mineral is like, the most common block. Lanterns should be made entirely of normal items, like glass, coal, etc, in my honest opinion.
But if they're made with magical glowing rock, there will be an explanation for them never going out.

I think it's a brilliant idea.
Or you could just mine that block and put it in your wall. Bam, instant lantern.

Ah, but it might not be as bright, or it'll only light up when you smack it (like redstone ore)
you see, an anonymous twitterer had an idea for minecraft.
Tweeted yesterday.
23 minutes ago, notch gave a reply that not only declines the idea, but also reveals some information.
So it's official, you will have to go to hell for at least one ingredient required to make a lantern.

It's been confermed that hell can kill you on peaceful fairly easyly via twitter, at least.. I think I heard that.
torches run out, if you put a torch in a box, it's called a lantern, but theres still a torch inside and torches run out. we probably need to get that glowing material in hell worlds as it is bright and could last forever.
