This film gives me SO MUCH nostalgia. Saw it when I was a little kid and I absolutely adored this movie, plus the legend Robin Williams stars in it, he’s amazing. My great uncle was close friends with Jim Varney who I got to meet, and he’s also a legend (in my eyes) and I always remember him telling me stories of him and Robin Williams messing around being silly. So much nostalgia and memories of my childhood just thinking of this film and RW.

I’ve seen this movie several times with several people and watched several reaction videos. I saw it when it was released. You are the 1st to recognize his father was Van Pelt. I didn’t know until 20 years later. Great reaction. 👏👏😊🥰
@bigdream_dreambig9 ай бұрын
The game riddle makes it pretty obvious that it'll be his father, but most first-time watchers are too distracted by all the ruckus to catch that, and then the actor isn't one who's well known enough for people to recognize him "on his own merits" in both parts, so most people don't realize until a rewatch when they're more calm and can pay more attention to the game clues.
@Cheepchipsable9 ай бұрын
@@bigdream_dreambig Game doesn't make it obvious it his father, it says something like someone who will make you, "feel just like like a child". I would have thought Peter might have put the face to the hunter, (perhaps different for each person who got that outcome). Seems like it could have been any kind of authority figure from that persons past, (teacher, etc), except they were a hunter. I just thought it was a bit of a gag they used the same actor as the father, (easily recognisable I thought. 🤷♂) No indication the hunter thought Peter was his son.

[39:44] _"i didn't expected it to end like this (...) doesn't make a lot of sense"_ It's because it's said in the rules of the game that they gotta finish it in order to everything go back to normal/what it was. They didn't start to play in 96', Judy and Peter were only added to the game *Alan and Sarah started in the 70's.* That way, when they finish, the game went back in time to reverse everything it affected, with Alan and Sarah as children the night they started the game. _Hope it makes sense now!_ 🫂💗

Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005) is a sci-fi version of Jumanji style adventure. The whole thing that happened was all part of the game. Once the game is over reality continues from where it left off before the game thus it was for those playing the game like a reset.

I must say I cried like I haven't in a very long time. When I heard Robin Williams had died. This man was like for all of us a massive part of not just my childhood but my life as well. I loved everything that he ever did. Even the times when he wasn't at his best. I couldn't stop laughing or learning from this man. That seemed to be fearless in anything he was doing. Just slam down on the accselrator and go balls to the wall. But always be just as determined to be appreciative to everyone else around you. That is what I have taken away from Robin Williams. For his life was a full one and it was certainly worth living. Man oh man, did he live it up.

Jumanji is definitely a childhood favorite of mine. I agree, the cop was hilarious. I think what made him most famous was the sketch comedy show “In Living Color” from 90-94. Btw the last name is pronounced Greer. I am always down for more Robin Williams and I think an underrated classic that’s also from the 90’s is Hook. Highly recommend.

17:06, the Clampetts were the family in the TV series The Beverly Hillbillies.

The cg wasn't good even back then. You can find interviews with the people that made it, and they talk about how crappy the monkeys looked, and why, while the lion looks pretty great. Basically, the monkeys were in a whole bunch of different lighting conditions, making it really difficult to adapt to each one with the time they had, whereas with the lion, they had a real world reference with the animatronic (which is insanely helpful for cg artists)

Great reaction to a wonderful movie! And the follow-up movie is very good (which I did not expect. I only saw it because the kids I was babysitting for one night were watching it, and I ended up liking it as much as they did) and it is a sequel and not a remake, thank goodness, because no one can replace Robin Williams. Van Pelt returns as the villain (which always amused me since the only Van Pelts I had ever heard of before were Lucy and Linus in the Peanuts/Charlie Brown comic strip) played by a different actor but even more creepily. Robin Williams was such a brilliant actor, and as awesome as he was a comedian it was so good to see him do more and more touching and deep roles, such as in What Dreams May Come, The Fisher King, Dead Poets Society, and Awakenings.

The town basically went bankrupt when the shoe factory went under. His parents gave up on life after searching the ends of the earth for his little boy. Sara's life sucked. His life sucked and lastly the little girl said if we end the game it will all go away. It started 26 years ago. So all of the 26 years was part of the game so therefore had to all go away. Last thing ill say is Sara missed her calling. Imagine how good of a psychic she would have been for at least the next 26 years or so. Lol.

The 2 sequels are surprisingly good too. They won't become classics but they follow the same concept in a different form that makes sense and, most importantly, it's not disrespectful to the original movie (something that often happens in modern movies and tv shows). The second sequel (the third movie) is a bit lazy because it doesn't add anything new to the whole series and the plot is pretty much the same as the previous movie with a couple of new characters and different comical situations. I think they were planning to make a third sequel but I don't know if it was ever produced.

It's a representation of Alan's issues with his father and his expectation of gaining "sophisticated masculinity".

The new ones are fun but don't live up to the original It's not about the game. It's about so much more. The family dynamics. The regrets. The not realising what you have until it's gone. The facinfg up to your fears The game is just the vessel in which to explore those topics. Same re: Jurassic park. It's NOT about a dinosaur park. It's about playing god. Hubris. The arrogance of man. The dinosaurs are just the vessel through which to explore that topic. That's what a lot of modern films/remakes/ sequels miss. They have a very superficial reading of the original. They lack the themes. There is no 'reading between the lines'. No deeper meaning which make the films classics. To be more than the sum of its parts
