You should do The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008)! I saw that movie in the theaters opening weekend when I was a kid. Pretty solid adaptation from what I remember even if it was just another Harry Potter-wannabe. Disney+ is doing a TV series of it soon but from what I remember, the books were pretty short (about 150 pages total for each one) and the movie did well at fitting all five of the books’ stories into an hour and a half movie.

I like the Peter Pan motif they did with Jonathan Hyde doing a dual role as Alan’s father Sam and being the villainous hunter Van Pelt. It’s basically how the Darling children saw their father before heading off to Neverland and taking on Captain Hook.

It's a complicated feeling, but I felt the same way about my mom. But, I was her only child, so I just wondered if she loved *anyone,* since it was just her and me in the house, and she and I never really got along. She's wanted me to run away since I was 13, and recently told me to go for it when I told her I was feeling suicidal. It was pure stubbornness that kept me breathing. After that, I gave up on asking her for help. Sought help on my own, and nevermind the consequences. The last time I tried to ask for help outside my home, I got in trouble with mom because protective services was called. It's what kept me from seeking outside help for over 2 years after that, but I couldn't count on her to help me overcome my depression. And BTW, mom isn't clever like Peter, using reverse psychology. She thinks she's clever, but she's often crueller than she cares to admit.

Plus you can, kind of, see how the game doesn't want you to speed run it (carnivorous plants, then a stampede going right for you, animals and characters stealing the game, a monsoon that floods the room in seconds, a quake that opens the ground, sucking players into the game... the magic in the boardgame doesn't want the current gaming to be over that quick).

Some context: In the 90's there was a couple of disgruntled employees who shot up their respective post offices. I believe there were 2 or 3 mass shooting events involving them. Hence the joke, "You are not a postal worker, are you?"

This scene is an enduring film classic from our childhood. It has from action, humor, drama and mistery. Also i want to share some curious facts. ° As you know, the film is an adaptation from a childrens book written by Chris Van Allsburg, the man who wrote "Zathura" and "The Polar Express". ° The director is Joe Johnston, who is well known for his works in "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids", "The Rocketeer", "The Pagemaster", "Jurassic Park 3", "Hidalgo", "The Wolfman" and "Captain America: The First Avenger". Also, he won an Oscar for creating the visual effects of "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark" ° Right before Robin Williams took the role of Alan Parrish, some actors who were considered to portray the character were Tom Hanks, Dan Aykroyd, Bruce Willis, Michael Keaton, Kevin Kline, Chevy Chase, Sean Penn, Kevin Costner, Richard Dreyfuss, Michael Douglas, Rupert Everett, Harrison Ford, Sean Connery, Bill Paxton, Bryan Cranston, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mel Gibson and Alec Baldwin.

The reason the firearm salesman asked if he was a postal worker is a reference to the term “going postal.” It sprouts from the tales about postal workers being so bored of their jobs that they go crazy (and in some story’s go on a killing rampage).

This movie was hilarious, good choice, Tim. All the scenes with the monkeys, the lion, Parrish opening the closet door after dealing with the lion & seeing the kids & them screaming & him screaming back before closing the door, the Hunter, especially when he got scanned by the item scanner in the store & his hilarious scream when he was on the air powered canoes & when the paint cans & shelves fell on him, just a riot

They did such a good job with the riddles because each one was more terrifying than the other.

To me, the passing of Robin Williams was like losing a beloved uncle you knew from childhood. Always had fun whenever he would visit and then hearing what happened to him. All that’s left are memories. Respect.

About who hears the drums. It's not just kids that can hear them and I only noticed it after watching the movie several times: "Jumanji: a game for those who seek to find a way to leave their world behind." That's what all the kids wanted for different reasons. Allen wanted to go away, Sarah wanted to be there for him, Judy and Peter because they lost their parents. They might not have realized it, but they wanted to leave their world behind. That's exactly what the game gave them and also taught them that maybe their world isn't so bad. And that's why the game and it's creatures hinder the advancement, like with the pelican, but at the same time protects the players from interference, like Carl getting distracted all the time, even to the plant easting his car. The players remember everything. The game just removes the consequences. All of them. And considering that the game can change reality, rewind time and has it's own dimension with a jungle in it I doubt the game can be destroyed. At least not with mundane means. With the new movies I have a very personal peeve which is not their fault. When I heard they were making a new Jumanji movie my imagination went wild. Have them play the game in a big city and see it slowly overtaken by the jungle as they play one. With today's possibilities it would have been epic. Compared to that the movie was obviously a let down for me. I understand the possible reasons why they did it like they did, but for me the damage was done.

Jumanji was based on the 1981 book by Chris Van Allsburng & Robin (R.I.P.) told fans Jumanji was an island in the Caribbean as a prank, but it is actually a Zulu word meaning “many effects”

I love this film. Yes, the effects are dated, but they still managed to pull off some crazy visuals while also keeping you engaged in the story. The theme will become clearer as you go on, but the game calls to troubled people, usually kids. It's like some crazy, extreme, and violent therapy.

Unlike some people I theorize that Judy and Peter remember on some level. The way they look at Sarah and Alan just has a hint of recollection. Not sure if it would be a subconscious memory, or they woke to a new reality with their parents. Because they too were bound by the magic of Jumanji. That's my theory anyway.

I can now watch it while sitting in a chair. And I’m on Tylenol and CBD, so at least it’s not morphine drip.😂

This movie was my childhood. Starring the great Robin Williams. RIP.

honestly I would love an R-rated Jumanji movie it would be pretty cool especially for the OG fans who are now all grown ups :D

This is my childhood right here, Tim. The 90s was quite a fun decade, especially for the late, great Robin Williams. His many roles in that decade were a real standout. Aladdin, Ferngully, Jumanji, Mrs. Doubtfire. All films I grew up watching him star in of that era. Anyway, this is the TRUE Jumanji of 1995 long before Dwayne Johnson came in! And… Kirsten Dunst’s debut film was _Interview with a Vampire_ But of course, the music of the great James Horner is easily recognizable given all his composing throughout the 80s and 90s. He’s even reunited with director Joe Johnston here since _Honey, I Shrunk the Kids_

6:38 Just a note that if Alan is facing intense bullying at public school, he’s not ready for Boarding School because it’s equally if not more harrowing. It is torture, yes.

According to the rules of Jumanji in the sequels, Judy and Peter should remember once it is the same time as when they played Jumanji before everything was undone. So we see them at the end but it’s before their parents’ car accident. They will remember months later when they reach the point where they would have moved into the Parrish house.

Don’t forget Zathura, both it and Jumanji are based on books made by the same person in a shared shared universe sense.

I love Jumanji and I always loved the animal moments in the film. I also really miss Robin Williams as he is one of the best actors to have ever lived! Loved the reaction Timothee!

I know that you will watch the 2 modern ones after this one (I also see that Welcome the Jungle is coming soon). But! There is another movie that is forgotten by most people: Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005). It's not really a sequel, but it might as well be. Where the 2 modern ones have a modern twist for both younger people and the people that grew with the original Jumanji, Zathura takes the same concept but changes the theme, being space instead of jungle and Africa. Just know that it exists, do what you want with this information. But I'm sure many people (myself included) would like to see you watch it.

But I guess I feel more strongly about it because I grew up in a single-parent home, always wondering if it's my fault my dad never came back. I wanted to dropkick Walter for yelling at Danny that their parents' divorce was his fault. I know you're mad at Danny right now, Walter, but that was beyond cruelly uncalled for. You're worse than the Zorgons in that moment, because Zorgons will kill and eat you, ending your suffering. You've wilfully inflicted deep, scarring wounds, and forced your brother to carry on even still. The fact that he forgave you at all is more admirable than you deserve.

Another classic adventure that you've reacted to, awesome! This film had heart which the other new ones did not, plus Robin Williams, young Kirsten Dunst, a James Horner score and that pure 90's wholesomeness. Robin elevates any film that he does, I love his chemistry with Bonnie Hunt who also has great comedic timing. I always get emotional at the end when young Alan reunites with his dad.

In a way I think the uncannieness of some of the effects on the animals helps you feel like the world of Jumanjii is strange and out of this world, like these animals went on a slightly evolutionary path or something.

This movie is instant nostalgia for me. Robin Williams was one of the men I looked up to. No intense violence. Just a silly man, making the best. He never failed to make me laugh.

This is one of the first movies I remember watching many times in my room as a small child. It was only a year or two after it came out. Still one of my favorite movies ever. 💕

Before Kirsten Dunst was cast, Scarlett Johansson originally auditioned for the role of Judy Shepherd.

A lot to say, first going back to the first scene with the kids burying the game and not being afraid of a pack of wolves, now you know why, regular animals are nothing compared to whatever comes out of Jumanji. Jumping to the end when you joked about them giving the kids Jumanji as a present, there's actually a deleted scene where we see their presents which turn out to be a new line of sneakers called Jumanji. I'm sure you have been told, but there's a child's picture book which is the inspiration for the movie and the true sequel is also based on the next book, Zathura. Last, in the 80's and 90's there was a trend of turning movies into cartoons, you probably know about Ghostbusters, but there was also Rambo, Conan, The Karate Kid, three Jim Carrey movies, and Jumanji, but to make it a series a few things were changed most notably the absence of the character of Sara and even how the game is played, when you roll you get a riddle and then sucked into Jumanji where you stay until you solve the riddle, the main plot of the series is that Alan didn't know about the riddle so he's trapped, Judy and Peter risk their lives again and again trying to save Alan, we see them grow closer and we also see and learn a lot more about Jumanji.

Twenty-six years in the deepest, darkest jungle, and I still became my father." I just realized that's a Hook reference. Nobody mobilized his craft like Robin Williams.

It didn't strike me as a child, only later as an adult, that Alen's father and the hunter are played by the same actor. which is quite a clever metaphor for his daddy issues.

The kids show no sign of recognition but it makes sense for them to not remember “yet”. Timeline wise with the reveal that the parents have yet to take their trip it’s apparent time hasn’t caught up to when they played the game in the original timeline. It’s possible their memories would return after that point.

Awesome classic R.I.P. Robin Williams you are missed 😢

I like this movie because it was rare to see robin williams not act like his goofy self, also I still have this on VHS

Jonathan Hyde both plays Sam Parrish & Van Pelt, but I have heard a theory that the old hobo living in the factory is his father who fake his death after he was suspected to have kill his son

From the way they're acting it seems the kids don't have any memory of the events, but their facial expressions say something to me. Maybe not the full memory, but a feeling of happiness and familiarity perhaps?

19:25 when they kidnapped her 😂😂

Sucks that Alan's first roll was to be stuck in the Jungle. The realtor had a bite on her head, meaning the mosquito bit into her brain...this is a KIDS MOVIE?!! One of the reasons I'm not as big a fan of the sequel films(Welcome to the Jungle and the Next Level)is that this movie set such a high standard and what I imagined for the Jungle was sooooo much darker and scarier. Alan's monologue about the things he had to deal with growing up in there was amazingly scary. I get chills every time at the ending as we see Alan's piece go over the word, the soft sound of the glass core and Alan's soft and awed "Jumanji..." "Lesson from this movie, don't go to Canada." Me, a Canadian:You bastard... The Hunter/Van Pelt is unable to be killed. In the animated series(which was not so bad and expanded on the movie plot a bit), killing the Hunter meant that you had to replace him. The first episode had Alan show the kids toys of other players who DIDN'T win...sweet dreams. Another Kirsten Dunst film I strongly insist you two react to is the comedy film "Drop Dead Gorgeous". Before "Spider-Man"and absolutely hilarious.

Alan to Sam on why he rejects Cliffside and the Parrish name: "Kids are already on my case BECAUSE I'm a Parrish. Maybe I don't want to be like you. Maybe I don't want to be a 'Parrish'." Tim's response: "Then YOU'RE gonna perish." 😂 I laugh-choked a little on my lemonade after I heard that. That not only sounds like one stern or badass parental threat, but I was like "Bro - Tim's getting dark and I LOVE it!" And you know, given the dangerous plot with Alan, Sarah, Judy and Peter, Alan getting "jailed" by the game and the alternate reality from the game as it was left unfinished for 26 years?YOU...WEREN'T...WRONG. 🤔 😁

And to answer you and Malbread's question: YES, Jonathan Hyde, is the actor behind Sam Parrish (Alan's father) and Van Pelt, one of the game's animal and bounty hunters. There have been interesting theories about this dual role, like with Alan having to survive in the game, so the game may have psychologically (or demonically or supernaturally, you're free to interpret) read on Alan's suppressed fear and emotional trauma off his strict and hard-working father, creating how he and we would see Van Pelt. Because, remember: "the game thinks". Alan had to literally fight his way inside the game since it was abandoned. Until Judy and Peter curiously joined new players in the future, Peter rolled the "5" that got Alan "out of jail". Think like playing a video game: Alan fought inside the game, the game fought Alan. He learned patterns, but this game could learn something off HIM, too. So, knowing about this dual role, I'd say Tim's joke on "being killed by his dad" was possibly closer than realized. 😉

Actually Timmothee, there was a novelization of the Jumanji that not just made the movie frightening, but also gave the movie a majority of it's plot. This movie gave me nightmares all the way up to middle school, and 2-3 in highschool. Thanks be to GOD this doesn't scare me no more

Aside from the fact that it was the same actor, the hunter looking like Alan's father is a metaphor since the hunter is a man, and Alan keeps fleeing from him because he isn't ready to be a man

The problem with only making a shoe that is a pair. "Wait did he only make one and it got ruined?"

In 1969, Alan Parrish lives in Brantford, New Hampshire, with his parents, Sam and Carol. One day, he escapes a group of bullies and retreats to Sam's shoe factory. He meets his friend, Carl Bentley, who reveals a new shoe prototype he made himself. Alan misplaces the prototype and damages a machine, but Carl takes responsibility and is dismissed. After the bullies attack Alan and steal his bicycle, Alan follows the sound of tribal drumbeats to a construction site. He finds a board game called Jumanji, which was buried a century earlier, and brings it home. That evening, after arguing with Sam about attending a boarding school, Alan plans to run away, but his friend, Sarah Whittle, returns his bicycle. Alan shows her Jumanji and invites her to play. With each dice roll, the game pieces moves by themselves and a cryptic message describing the roll's outcome appears in the crystal ball at the center of the board. After Alan inadvertently rolls a five, a message tells him to wait in a jungle until someone rolls a five or eight, and he is sucked into the game. Shortly after, a swarm of bats appears and pursues Sarah out of the house. Twenty-six years later, Judy and Peter Shepherd move into the now-vacant Parrish house with their aunt Nora after their parents died in an accident on a ski trip in Canada the winter before. Discovering Jumanji in the attic, Judy and Peter begin playing it, with their rolls summoning giant mosquitoes and a troop of monkeys. After learning that everything will be restored when the game ends, they continue playing. Peter next rolls a five, releasing a lion and an adult Alan. As Alan makes his way out, he meets Carl, who is now working as a police officer. At the now-abandoned shoe factory, Alan learns that his father abandoned the business to search for him after his disappearance until his death four years prior. Eventually, the factory's closure sent Brantford into economic decline. Realizing Sarah is needed to finish the game, the three locate Sarah, now suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder due to both Jumanji and Alan's disappearance, and persuade her to join them. Sarah's next move releases deadly jungle vegetation and Alan's releases a big-game hunter named Van Pelt, whom he first met in the game's jungle-like inner world. The next roll summons a stampeding herd of various animals and a pelican from it steals the game. Peter retrieves it, but Carl arrests Alan. Back in town, the stampede wreaks havoc, and Van Pelt steals the game, intent on using it to lure Alan to him. Peter, Sarah and Judy follow Van Pelt into a discount store, where they battle him to reclaim the game, while Alan, after revealing his identity to Carl, is set free. Upon returning to the mansion, now completely overrun by the vegetation, the quartet release one calamity after another until Van Pelt returns. When Alan drops the dice, he wins the game, which reverses everything that happened as a result of the game. Alan and Sarah return to 1969 when the game began, just in time for Alan to reconcile with Sam, who tells him he does not have to attend boarding school. Alan also admits his guilt in damaging the factory's machine, insuring Carl's rehiring. After realizing they have memories of the events that took place during the game, Alan and Sarah throw Jumanji into a river before sharing a kiss. In an alternate version of the present, Alan and Sarah are now married and expecting their first child. Alan's parents are still alive while he is now successfully running the family business. Alan and Sarah meet Judy, Peter, and their parents, Jim and Martha, for the first time during a Christmas party. Alan offers Jim a job after convincing the couple to cancel their skiing trip, averting their deaths in the original timeline. Meanwhile, two young girls hear drumbeats while walking on a beach, as Jumanji is seen lying partially buried nearby.

RIP Robin Williams It's sad that he's not with us and I Love this and He Did Amazing Job with Live action Popeyes

(24:03) Interesting question from that gun salesman. That was a problem in the late 80s-early 90s. The phrase "going postal" became a thing during that time. (28:27) Looks like Peter learned from the best when it comes to setting traps for bad guys. Courtesy of Kevin McCallister. And I used to believe back then as a kid when Alan said, “you will not last five minutes without me.” I interpreted that as if Alan leaves the group, Peter slowly turns into a monkey. When in actuality, I didn’t hear the part of what he did by dropping the dice repeatedly to win, which in turn this transformation is the punishment for cheating.

I had the Jumanji board game when I was a kid and I still do. I also had the Zathura board game but I think I gave that away (I’ll look around my house again to see if I still do). They were fun but didn’t have animals and hunters attacking us or houses going into space and us kids having to fighting against evil aliens.

5:50 Every time *I* hear a grandfather clock, I think “Is it 6 yet?”. Does anyone else?

We used to watch this every Christmas at our house back in the day, Nostalgia hits hard . where has the time gone?

I much prefer this Jumanji to the other 2 for many reasons,but the main one being Robin Williams,he does such an absolutely wonderful performance that outshines the acting in both the new Jumanji movies combined,the risks this movie took only makes the movie better and scarier,what I mean by scarier is how Alan describes his long and grueling time in the game in perfect detail,I could see how utterly terrified he was by how he doesn't even blink or break eye contact with either of the kids, you could only imagine what horrors he's seen by how detailed his description was of Jumanji,I must praise the CGI for many of the creatures shown in this movie while many of them were exaggerated it just added to the horror side of this movie and are made to scare and unsettle you,the monkeys though while they may have looked good at the time they were made they just look dated and very old,but it did however foreshadowed the franchise known as Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes which I thought was really quite interesting

31:28 - 31:54 Carl Scream and poor car of Carl 😂😂😂😂😂

Have anyone seen the Animated Series? It was dope

When I was younger, yes.

Please watch "The Neverending Story".

13:23 For 1995, that lion looks amazing! 😎 Both the CGI and the animatronic!

I remember watching this for the first time and I swear the monkeys looked a lot more real back then lol

Sony should do a crossover with Zathura

That film’s part of the same universe as Jumanji. I wish they did a reboot/continuation similar to what we got with the recent Jumanji movies with Dwayne Johnson. Instead of kids playing the game and their house goes into space, they should make it a War of the Worlds-esque movie where kids play the Zathura game and it involves an alien invasion and things like meteor showers attacking earth.

He was a great actor and comedian. Hes gone be we will still remember him by his movies

Fun Fact The Hunter and His Dad are played by the same Actor 😂😂

Man this film throws me into 90´s when we watched this on VHS with my friends.... Still epic film. Considering its almost 30 years old, CGI holds up surprisingly well...

25:26 That’d be cheating, Peter 🤷🏾‍♂️😂🙊

"Do the kids have memories?" No, since the game kind of "undone" the timeline (prove of that is the element of the parents: Sarah and Alan get to know the parents and prevent their deaths, as far as we know; securing a happier timeline for the kids). "Destroy it!" The film never explicitly states it, but some lore about cursed objects can be used here: you can't destroy an object heavily imbued with magic, unless you use the right magic. Burn it, crush it, toss it underwater... the game will always find a way to return because it's more than just the wooden board. Partially that's why it's not rotten after a century underground or several decades underwater: it was made to last. You want to see how cursed an object can be to come back from destruction? Check a film of the 1970's named "Christine". "Play it nonstop!" It's a good idea... that the game is aware of. Many people don't get that the consequences of the game not only escalate, but ask you to risk (literally) life and limb to finish it: carnivorous plants, poisonus animals and vegetation, shattering earthquakes... the rules don't state it, but the boardgame is another character (we could say it's a tertiary villain, since it's motivations run way in the back, only seen through proxies) that is making everything in its power so the curren game is never finished (the only thing holding it back from straight murder is the same magic that fuels the game; it seems it was programmed to give people a chance to fight back, and only die if the circumstances are just too much). "Did Sarah ruin Mr. Parrish reputation?" Not really. If you, kind of, piece togheter the beginning and the end of the film, you get a timeline of how Alan's disappearance became an urban legend of the town: Alan and his father fight, he leaves, in the span of (more less) five to ten minutes Alan is gone (Sarah was chased out of the house by magical bats, so she is not there when Mr. Parrish returns for his speech notes); when Mr. Parrish returns there is no one in the house, a boardgame at the table and Alan's luggage. Now, all the clues public opinion and authorities have to solve the mystery is that Mr. Parrish wanted to send his son away (not that he wanted to get rid of him... but there is already a bad implication about it), that the kid made him angry, and that there is a girl swearing Alan was sucked by a magical game... no wonder urban legends decided to think, better, that Mr. Parrish was a murderer. And that's it. Nice reaction and see you in the next one.

I really appreciate that you chose to bring the reaction to the Jumanji movie, you always choose great movies, I'm really happy to follow you 🥰🥰

21:30 Actually, it's kinda... Poetically cruel. The game made Allan disappear into Jumanji, stuck in his own pocket-dimension hell for 26 years, but if you look at the effect of his disappearance on Sarah, Sam and Carol (his parents), Carl, and the whole town, really, they've all been sufferring in their own personal hell all this time (except Sam and Carol; their son's disappearance drove both to an early grave.) Sam, especially, was seemingly tormented every remaining moment of his life by the fact that the last words he ever said to Allan were about sending him away, and the last thing his son ever said to him was that he'd never speak to him again. We all probably say something to that effect to someone when we're angry, but to have it come true... It's the worst kind of hell, especially once the damange is irreparable, like when one person is no longer alive, so there can be no reconciliation.

From what we find out in Jumanji welcome to the jungle yes Judy and Peter have memory of what happened

The actor who plays Alan’s Dad and Van Pelt was Cadbury in ‘Richie Rich’ (1994)

Fun fact: Tom Hanks was one of the first choices to play Alan Parrish. His son Colin Hanks has a minor role in the sequel.

36:07 imagine seeing feet dangling from ur ceiling 😂😂

When the gun store owner asked him if he was a postal worker It was a reference to several shootings that took place by postal employees. Dating all the way back to the 1970s, there have been several instances of postal employees shooting up post offices. Pretty dark joke to include in a kids movie But still hilarious when you understand the context

Jumanji is one of my favorite movies from my childhood I remember the animated series where Judy and Peter entered this world to help Alan to exit the game

Anybody that ever broke a lamp while the parents were away, will appreciate how it would feel, that when the damage just keeps getting worse and worse. There is a lot of dread of getting in trouble... That they read to rules to know it would all be undone by winning. I don't know if I would have been able to believe that so easily.. even with all the unbelievable stuff that was happening. lol

Robin Williams absolutely brought his A game to this movie. If only the real life board game was this fun and exciting.

One of my favorites starring/featuring Robin Williams. Parts of this film were taped in Keene, New Hampshire. There's even a little mural of Parrish shoes painted on one of the sides of the building on Main Street. I can't remember which building it was though...

This is going to sound silly, but this movie SCARED me as a kid, especially the scene when Alan got sucked in, and when the spiders, the croc, and the lion appeared. Like, I got so anxious and my heart pounded every time I watched it. Even watching it now, despite the CGI being old and silly, I get slight anxiety watching the scenes now. Frikin awesome movie, so glad you enjoyed it! 😊👍

19:32 - 19:36 Sarah Scream 😂😂😂😂

R.I.P To A Great Actor Comedian Robin Williams, Still Miss You Always

19:15 - 19:20 poor Sarah 😂😂😂😂

Fan fact:I born in 1995😊 Robin Williams never forget... "Good morning Vietnam,,

29:22 A-salt with a deadly weapon! I love it! (Hint: the first shelf to lean, which knocked over the paint cans, was filled top-to-bottom with large canisters of table salt!)😅
