Of all the characters, who is your favorite??
Kevin Hart as "Fridge" Franklin Finbar
🪨
Bethany 😂😂😂
Bethany 100% :)
Definitely Bethany, she provided the most laughs!
Jack Black literally bodied his role, the facial expressions, hand motions just everything is so perfectly done
Yesss 💀 if you haven’t seen him imitating the rock look it up on yt it’s so fucking funny how good it is
Jack black himself is perfect lol
Sounds as if you know a lot of specifics pertinent to high school girls...🤔
@@ivankawnartist yes cuz I went to school for 8 years with plenty girls like that
@@emmabruh Oh la la.
All of the actors seemed to have a blast at playing against their usual type, especially Dwayne Johnson as the nerdy Spencer, or Karen Gillan as the awkward Martha. But Jack Black REALLY stole the show as Bethany!
Yess I love jack black act as a Bethany.. it was really fun to watch.. but to bad at the 3rd movie it felt a bit lacking..maybe because half of the movie she was a horse
@@swangaming2426 No.
Poor Kevin, you didn't even mention him.
I think Dwayne and Kevin got some practice with their Central Intelligence movie where Kevin played a man who was the high school basketball champion who's career never happened, and Dwayne had been an overweight teen who grew up to be a maladjusted cia agent who looked up to Kevin for being the only one that stood up for him.
I suppose Hollywood casts people for specific roles don't they? Like how the rock is always the badass strong guy. I feel like many actors have tropes attached to them. It must've been such a breath of fresh air to play around with something different!
“This is Alan Parrish’s house, I’m just living in it.” - such a great way to pay homage both to Robin Williams and the original movie.
I never understood this tho wasn't he like trying to survive in Jumanji hiding from the hunter the whole time? Also how is there so much civilization here for Robin Williams to show up in leaves camo insinuating that he's been in the jungle the whole time alone
Jack Black did the damn thing as Bethany!! Comedic timing, facial expressions...everything was perfect!
An ACTOR okayyyy 🗣😤
?
He’s probably the only person who could’ve pulled it off. Goddamn legend.
Despite my great respect for Jack Black, I never thought I would live to see him play a teenage girl. And pull it off.
What I love about JB's performance is that he's not playing a 'girl' character like all male characters usually do i.e.; the female stereotype. He's just playing Bethany.
Oh, absolutely! Usually it's overdone--exaggerated gestures and walks. But Jack Black went with an understated technique that was simply perfect!
This was a movie that was better than it had any rights to be. It is also probably one of the best example of a reboot done right out there ... it doesn't call old fans names and instead respects the original while adding their own lore that compliments and builds on the world.
I was worried the 'Next Level' movie was going to be the mess I thought this one would be, but actually ... well you'll see.
It's not a reboot. It's a sequel. Reboots ignore the old continuity, like the 2016 Ghostbusters.
@@Corn_Pone_Flicks It's still a reboot. A soft reboot, at least.
and it has no SJW bulshit
@@The_Algae they literally mention Alan Parrish in this film making it a sequel
@@andrewft31 I know it is a sequel but it's a soft reboot as well. A reboot in a sense that there are different characters and that the movie is a completely different tone and a slightly different concept compared to the original film.
I love how when Martha had to try and sound flirty, the actress Karen Gillan went into her Nebula voice. All whispery, raspy, and slow
Yes, Van Pelt was the name of the hunter from the original movie. They changed him from being a stereotypical 90's villain to more of a stereotypical 2010's villain.
I like that detail. Jumanji is working with what it's got while still adapting to the ever changing expectations of kids. Makes me think of how long it could have been around, and what could it have been before it was a board game. Perhaps a book.
The game adapts to the needs of the people playing it
For example in the original Jumangi Van pelt was a hunter that looked like Alan’s dad because he was manifestation of Alan’s fears and insecurities around his father and thinking his father never cared for him
It’s also one of the reasons Ain stand sup to him at the end, saying how even though he’s afraid, his father told him to face his fears...
it was the push Alan needed to become the person he needed to be
whereas here Van pelt is an obstacle not a feature,
the real journey of the characters is figuring out who they are and want to be, and Van Pelt is merely one of the obstacles they need to overcome
Spencer’s big lesson is more about overcoming his fears returning to be a weak and afraid of everything, Martha's is about being more than a shy shut in, Bethany's is about being more than superficial and Fridge’s lesson is too understand that strength and brawn can’t take you the whole way etc.
it didn’t need a physical representation of their struggles or fears because the game itself was that
Though i have to give it to the original film, having the Father and Hunter be the same person and the reasons for that was really brilliant writing.
I really love how skillfully the actors were at mimicking their teenage counterparts. Jack Black apparently had the persona of a teenage girl in mind, but never imagined that he'd actually have to use it!
I know one of the best things about the movie is the actors in part 2 is just top tier acting
A lot of people hated the movie as soon as the trailer dropped, but I was willing to give it a shot. It being a sequel rather than a remake was the wise move. Also showing that the game will adapt to fit whatever it needs to be for people to play it makes Jumanji a lot more sinister. Like it's actively seeking victims to play it.
Exactly! It means that no matter what generation the game finds itself in, anyone will be able to play because it adapts!
Back when the movie first came out i was kind of skeptical and didn't think much of it, never saw until this reaction aside from various trailers/clips, but seeing it now i have agree, better than i thought it would be.
I know. I wasn't into it because I did not think it would be as good as the original. But it turned out funny and I got good feels at the end.
I think Jumanji isn't sinister because if it was it would make everything a lot harder. And it is more on giving the players the chance to reconcile with their lives like Alan with his father. And the group to become friends with each other.
Who would hate a movie with The Roçk?
The giggle that happened when Shelby said “{eyes sparkle} like an anime character” was EVERYTHING hahahaha love it
Aww thanks ;)
"Martha, come look at my penis!" "No thanks."
One of my favorite dialogue exchanges in pretty much any movie. That whole scene was genius.
I gotta say as someone who loves the original jumanji I thought this movie was not only good as a reboot but instead as an actual sequel ! I really think that it does work as a sequel because it makes sense in- universe. They really connected the original one with this one so in my opinion it was a continuation of the first. In the first we've seen what happens when the characters of the game come alive in our world and in this we're getting what Alan went through in the first and seeing what happens when you come alive in the game.
It's just really well done
also again the fact that they stuck with the original rules like that when you finish the game you end up exactly where you left when you started playing. And that the game helped all of them in the end with their personal issues, really nice
Martha's flirting voice is actually Karen Gillan's Nebula voice.
Zathura (2005)
"....is an adaptation of the 2002 children's book Zathura by Chris Van Allsburg, author of the 1981 children's book Jumanji. It is a standalone spin-off of the 1995 film Jumanji and the second installment of the Jumanji franchise."
I never knew it was a book (Jumanji) and written by the same guy who made Zathura.
Glad to see the appreciation towards Karen Gillan's acting in the movie! I agree that she did SO WELL but I rarely see people (both in yt videos and social media in general) praise her performance in this.
Karen Gillan has been really good in everything I've seen her in. (This and the sequel, Doctor Who, Marvel movies, Oculus, even Selfie which wasn't very well made.)
37:30 - I like that little detail where Fridge is sober after dying, since when He resurrects, He is back to perfect shape.
Oh that’s true!!
The first one is still my favourite. But the second movie was SO funny and the acting was on point that I enjoyed it
I saw the second one before the first so this will always be my personal favourite but the first one is also soo good
@@Artn00b Imagine how stupid someone has to be to watch the sequel before watching the first movie when you meet the characters and have an established story. 😆
@@reynaldolorenzo8409 it’s called not knowing there was a first movie beforehand
@@reynaldolorenzo8409 and my mum got me to watch it without telling me
I love how when this came out it was never really advertised as a sequel of sorts. I think ppl assumed it was a reboot which it is in a way but it actually connects to the original film as in we get to see when Alan lived in the actual jungle and where the Hunter came from :)
All the actors are amazing, but can we give a moment of respect to Bobby Cannavale absolutely hamming it up as Van Pelt? You could tell he was having a great time too! 😆🤣
Once you watch all the Jumanji movies I recommend that you also watch Zathura a Space Adventure (2005). It's technically a sequel to Jumanji or at least takes place on the same universe. The movie doesn't really make any direct reference to the original film which is why some people say that Zathura is a Jumanji rip off but the books confirm that that Zathura is a sequel to Jumanji.
I love Zathura so much but it did mess me up as a kid😂 there’s so much scary stuff
I loved zuthura it was great
There is a side-quel called Zathura which instead is a boardgame with a space theme. So, you get robots, aliens, and meteor showers instead of lions, monkeys and monsoons. It's not great, but it's not bad either. Oh yeah that girl from the twilight movies is in it at and seems like an actual teenager in this one.
I was asked if this was an actual sequel... Zathura was written by the same author as Jumanji (yes there's a book) and it was originally intended as a sequel. In the books the boys in Zathura were neighbors with Alan Parrish and they find the game Zathura near the same location where Alan found Jumanji (apparently it was a location that had several magical boardgames which the author never embellished on). Of course, the movie makes no reference to any of this, but the poster/DVD box mentions "From the world of Jumanji". So, they originally were trying to tie the movies together, but just kind of forgot about it when it didn't do well in theatres.
@@leperwolf7287 That's really interesting. If they were to make it a whole 'universe' about it, it would have so much potential for a franchise.
Zathura is amazinggggg
I’m glad they made a reference to the original Jumangi . Robin Williams was a good, and talented guy
I figure that RW would've had a cameo if it'd been possible, so I really appreciated the fact that they included him in this way.
Van Pelt! In the original that was the name of the hunter that came out of the game to shoot Robin Williams’s character. I didn’t realize until you guys pointed it out!
What I liked about this movie is the house made by Allan Perrish isn't the only homeage to Robin Williams, The elephant is as well.
Because the Elephant was his player token
Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson have become one of the best Duos ever their friendship off screen is absolutely hilarious
They are in DC League of Super Pets now.
@@morganspider-manmarvelfan6110 that's great LOL
@@dabegmister Yeah
At the end, that was Tom Hanks' son Colin Hanks. The kid that was stuck for 20 years.
I remember reading a comment that said this film had no right to be as good as it was. And that's true, for what I thought was going to be a cash grab remake movie, this is a great film.
Van Pelt, since you wondered, is the name of the guy who was trying to kill Alan Parrish (the Robin Williams character) throughout the original Jumanji movie.
The villain is also the stepdad from Ant-Man! I love this movie
This movie was more hysterical than it had any right to be. They did such a great job acting like teens in adult bodies, especially Jack Black.
The first one even ended with the game ending up where the Dad finds it in the second one. Also when they all scream out Jumanji and you get the wide shot you can see that Jumanji looks just like the game board did.
I think the only small pet peeve I have with this movie is how Martha never actually dance fights, like with actual dance moves to a beat, she just regular fights with music playing in the background
I was surprised how good this was! Great homages and building off the original and I’m soo hyped for the 4th one where the video games comes out into the real world
i love bethany’s character development
Amazingly faithful and respectful sequel to the original. A salute to the genius that was and legend that always will be Robin Williams. The acting and dialogue was on point, and every character was just charming. Particularly Jack Black, who is just precious. Love all three movies.
The Alex character is none other played by a singer named Nick Jonas which is awesome but yeah I laughed out loud during this movie so much and we saw it on my brother’s birthday.
I also liked that after they call out Jumanji, you see the roads that have the shape of the routes that the boardgame had.
i do think this is one of the best examples of a sequel reboot. it honors and references the original, but uses it as a stepping stone to push into new territory that will interest a new generation. tricky balancing act, The Highlander series comes to mind as a contrasting example. there's no way to replace Robin Williams, so the shift of focus to a group and relationships makes so much sense. in addition, the cgi improvements make the immersion into Jumanji so much more possible, where the special effects were more limited to monster overlays in the first one (not criticizing the original, they did a good job of knowing their limitations and combining it with practical effects where possible).
I wouldn’t even call it a soft reboot, I’d say it’s a real sequel, but it’s the best kind of sequel because it doesn’t fall into any of the regular traps like doing the same thing over again or rehashing the same plot. It took the same concept and world from the first film and expanded it in a really creative way. They gave subtle nods and references to the first film but didn’t go heavy into the nostalgia like so many sequels that come out many years after the original do.
One of the things I really liked about this movie, is I love when movies have an in-universe reason for why the bullshi&t action is not only feasible but part of the plot and character development. The best example of this is of course The Matrix, also Inception, and Last Action Hero gets honorable mention.
You guys skipped “Zathura” which is a Jumanji movie, it was in the early 2000’s, its more of a jumanji spinoff but its still considered a jumanji movie
All the actors here are so fucking talented
I wonder if sometimes they had the kid actors play out scene in the game and then have the adult actors learn their mannerisms and then copy them when they do the scene themselves
Jumanji 2 is an amazing movie and the action cool as well.
I really do think you guys would enjoy watching Zathura, as it has more of the serious tone from Jumanji but enough humor too. Plus some great actors are in it.
There’s a film called *Zathura* which is also kind of set in the same universe as Jumanji.
Dwayne Johnson & Kevin Hart is the best comedic duo ever LOL 🤣
I really love this sequel!
The follow-up movie to this one is pretty good too!
i love the sheer amount of "the rock in the jungle" movies there are. and they dont stop making them LMAO. another really fun one in Jungle Cruise, as hes yet again typecasted for "guy in the jungle"
Originally this was supposed to be a remake of the 1st movie but they announced it just after the death of Robin Williams and Dwayne refused to be a part of it because he didn't want to taint Robin's memory so they changed the script. At least that's what I heard.
When he smoulders that background music🤣🤣🤣
Hippos are literally one of the most aggressive animals on the planet.
So beautiful in their own way though 🥰🥰🥰
the Alan parish was here was here the elephant item they got was Alan parish's player character for the jamanji board in the first movie.
This one shows a good example of how to do the "Bringing it into the modern generation" properly.. it wasn't exactly a sequel, nor was it exactly a reboot, it was true to the original story, but morphed into a more modern version of the antagonist and it's environs (The game was the real villain, the "Bad Guy" was just one of it's minions) hehehehehe
You know, reading the title "Welcome to the Jungle" I am reminded of "The Rundown (2003)" because that's the international title (like where I live). Now, that 2003 movie is a very beloved Dwayne Johnson movie with the added bonus of Seann William Scott (playing Stifler unlike in Final Destination (2000)). TOP Tier The Rock for sure!
Man, I love this movie. I knew Karen Gillan from Doctor Who, so seeing her play a comedy role that was rather different from her previous role was HILARIOUS. Jack Black, I was most familiar with from the Muppet Movie, but I was dying watching him play a teenage girl. This was the first movie I had seen the Rock or Kevin Hart in, and I thought they did great.
It seems like everyone else in the comments is voting for Zathura, so I have to cast my vote for it as well. I've only seen it twice. The first time I had no idea what was going on. The second was much more enjoyable. I think you guys will like it a lot.
The bad guy be singing "where's my _jewel_ ? So not cool! Where's my _jewel_ ?"
YES! I have literally been waiting AGES for you guys to post this reaction!!! I honestly love this movie! (And I don’t know why; maybe it’s the humour 😂😂)
This was a better than expected entertaining film that was fun, funny, action-packed, and the cast had amazing chemistry here especially Jack Black as Bethany 😂❤.
I didn't even realize that was Nebula! I knew her from her role as Amy Pond from Doctor Who!
Unrelated to the film, "van Pelt" is also know-it-all Lucy's last name in the Peanuts cartoons; Lucy van Pelt.
At the end when they all say jumanji and the screen zooms out to show the whole jungle.. it has the same layout as the board game!!!
I always fall for Jack Black!
Hugs from Argentina 🇦🇷
Love your 80s movies reactions 💕
You are correct, gentlemen. Van Pelt was the Hunter in the first Jumanji (and his actor also played the Dad)
this film was far better than i expected it. The way it change everything up, the way they all experienced something similar to Alan did because it had to change with the time period. Brilliant. It was done so well.
When you guys are totally complete with Jumanji, you need to watch Zathura. The original Jumanji was a children’s book that was published in 1881. The author meet a sequel to the book. Zarthura. This was later adapted into a movie. So it’s like the alternative sequel to the original Jumanji.
You should watch Zathura. It's like a Jumanji spin-off if I remember correctly. But space themed.
The only thing I think was really lacking, as opposed to the original, is the connection of the game elements coming out into the real world.
Also, the logic of the 1st Jumanji would be the 4 would have their memory wiped. The "real" world changed with Alex returning to 1996.
OOOOOH I WAS SO CONFUSED BECAUSE IT SAID JUMANJI 2 but this is actually just jumanji: welcome to the jungle since there's jumanji 2: return to the jungle
Having a Robin Williams cameo would have been nice. Even if it was just the cast walking past his house and he's mowing the lawn.
Kinda tough since he had been dead 2 years before the started filming this one.
@@5353Jumper I know. That was the sad part. But even just having a person that they could have used cgi to look like him in the background or a character saying "hi Mr. Parrish" and using his voice to respond. But the tribute to him was nice.
1. I love all the Jumani movies. Like you said 2 honors the 1st while doing its own thing in a fun & more mature way, & 3 continues the adventure & laughs of 2.
2. Don't forget that even though it's not part of the "trilogy" that Zathura is part of the Jumanji universe too! It's more like 1 in that it centers on younger kids & the game is a board game, but also it has a very different dynamic between the sibling characters.
I still want to know what magic/science created the games & its intent. Are they cursed to try to trap victims permanently, or is it supposed to be a good thing to teach lessons? Is this answered in the books?
I would hardly call this one "more mature."
That is actually a very good question. The second one, on what created these cursed games. I have a theory, that the Jumanji game is a cursed game centered around a real location. Well real in the universe it's in that is. I see it as the game started out somewhere, as a board game. The curse was everlasting and eternal, because a board game doesn't have a narrative it only has a competition between all the players to reach the end and claim victory. But when it turned into a video game, suddenly it had a narrative that it could follow. One that has an end. Considering how in The Next Level, even though the video game has been smashed and is glitching, it's an entirely new narrative. It's not like it's a broken video game, it's like the video game evolved to the next video game in the series. Van Pelt isn't the main bad guy it's in the other guy. So I think that Jumanji actually has one more movie in its timeline to put to rest the curse forever. I mean we had one person steal the the eye of Jumanji from the jaguar, the other fellow stole the heart of Jumanji. And we had two other characters mentioned, but never seen, who also have powers of Their Own. I think they have the power of the weather and the Earth. Why? It fits in with the fact that in the original Jumanji we had monsoons, and earthquakes. Earlier we've had animals and plants.
As to what Zathura was supposed to be, that I don't know. Since we only have one movie, it's really hard to figure out what it's narrative could have been. But it certainly fun to speculate what it could be a deeper narrative for
Since it evolved from a board game to a video game when it first encountered a video game, I think it must have originally been something else. My guess is that it was some kind of magical amulet created in an ancient jungle culture that was meant to test the people who wore it by taking them into Jumanji or bringing things out. When British imperialists came, they acquired it but ignored it until it saw them playing a board game and changed to get their attention.
@@DSGodiva Well its main characters are older teenagers, not little/preteen kids. They care about more mature subjects than little kids. I'm not saying that the writers had them acting like 30 yr olds, but they did have them act like real teens with a bit more real world experience than that of little kids. So RELATIVELY more mature, yes.
Jumanji 1 & Zathura both revolve around younger kids having problems that totally center on themselves. They aren't mature enough to really understand how to handle their own issues & because of it are not able to stop & see that others may have bad problems too. Until the game jolts them out of their self-centered view & at the end they are cooperating. In Jumanji 2, early in the movie you see the teens figure out that they need to band together & though they have their own problems it doesn't stop them from seeing that the others have problems too.
@@rfresa a very good theory there.
Maybe it was originally a totem of some kind. Like, it was a totem that would test those it deemed worthy, or really needed these harsh lessons for their benefit, of taking part in its test set the deepest darkest most dangerous jungle in the world; Jumanji. Explaining why it would call out to its players, like how in the original film only Alan and Sarah were able to hear the drums, and later Judy and Peter were the only ones to hear the drums despite being close to an adult who could also have heard it. This artifact was taken by the British, let's say because Van Pelt originally looked very British, but because they did not understand that this totem actually was cursed and needed to be used, they never used it. Then, the totem saw some British soldiers playing a board game of some kind. And so, it became the board game that we know and dread.
But, I find it very interesting that the game is very generous in a sense. Like after you play the game and reach the end, it puts you right back where you started. Undoing all the damage that it inflicted on you, physically at least. Which makes me wonder, how would the game play if a player was to suddenly die in the middle of the game? Would they remain dead, and the other players had to play to the end in order to bring them back, since the game puts you right back at the beginning when you started playing? There are so many questions with this game and how it operates, it's a Pity we will probably never know.
Can't wait for you guys to watch The Next Level❤️
I Can't Help But Laugh At The Part Where Kevin Hart Explodes After Eating Cake. What Kind Of Video Game Logic Is That?!
Fun detail. When the principal is talking to all of them, there's 5 chairs but 4 of them, foreshadowing a 5th member of the crew
Fun reaction! I didn't remember alot of this movie, so it was funny watching it again with you guys!
14:04 I guess you could say, they're hungry hungry hippos.
I love this movie, and one of the worst/best parts for me specifically was, I have the same name, act, and somewhat look like the main protagonist. So having the rock play a version of me had me rolling 😂
Van Pelt was the crazy hunter from the original movie...
This movie is so much fun and I love how they adapted it for the time period while still being respectful and true to the original ! And I also loved all the creative ideas for the video games mechanics it's so clever !
39:33 Worst kiss
True!!! Lol
Great reaction!
The acting here was top level and the direction helped them stay on point. All of the actors, even the Jonas brother, did great. Jack Black and Karen Gillan were the best though, absolutely. And Tom Hanks son as the grown up Alex Vreeke was neat too. It was better than I ever expected it to be.
Some movies like this one I have being postponing to watch bc I didn't have anyone to watch it with so I'm so happy I can enjoy this with you guys ❤️ those reaction are the highlight of my day
This movie is SO MUCH FUN! I want Jack black to play a girl in everything. Great reaction guys. Glad you has fun.
That teacher is Maribeth Monroe she plays Alice in Workaholics and she is wonderful 🙂
Like most herbivores, hippos will consume a variety of plants if presented with them in captivity, but their diet in nature consists almost entirely of grass, with only minimal consumption of aquatic plants. A hippo will eat around 40 kg (88 lb) of grass in a night while traveling 3-5 km (1.9-3.1 mi). They typically return to the water before dawn. On occasion, hippos have been filmed eating carrion, usually near the water. There are other reports of meat-eating and even cannibalism and predation. The stomach anatomy of a hippo is not suited to carnivory, and meat-eating is likely caused by aberrant behaviour or nutritional stress. Because of their size and their habit of taking the same paths to feed, hippos can have a significant impact on the land across which they walk, by keeping the land clear of vegetation and depressing the ground. Over prolonged periods, hippos can divert the paths of swamps and channels. By defecating in the water, the animals also appear to pass on microbes from their gut, affecting the biogeochemical cycle.
This movie was a homerun, such a great sequel… I remember being shocked after I saw it cause I thought there was no way at all it could be good, I was very wrong, they all knocked it out of the park in their roles
I think the gem was programmed to be lost out of the backpack as another challenge.
33:43 I can hear nebulas voice in that line
This movie was filmed at my old high school. The same school is used for Stargirl and Ms. Marvel
Thank you for this. I wached just Jumanji 1 so this was amazing for me. 😍😍
The conversation between the Princess and the Geek girl in the jungle and a lot of the film in general gives me Breakfast Club vibes. I love how they were kids who didn’t hang out and now they’re friends almost because of their experiences in Jumanji
The Jumanji 2 in the title got me confused and I thought you guys were reacting to The Next Level LMAO
Amazing reaction to the movie! To answer your question about Van Pelt, he was the hunter from the first film that Allen rolled from the game. If you remember, Allen confronts him which symbolized his fear as he won the game. This Van Pelt is modern adaption of the previous character. I can’t wait for Jumanji: The Next Level; I still highly recommend Zathura, it’s a spin-off sequel that involves the same premise but in outer space.

Yes!!!!! It’s awesome
Jumanji was one of the big surprises of 2017. It's Hollywood doing it right like it rarely does in these days and age. Nobody expected it to be good. The promotional photos were pretty bad. In the end, it worked. The idea of a soft reboot respectful of the original movie was the best.
It's one of those rare movies that have understood the spirit of video games, next to Boss Level, for instance.
About Karen Gillan and her legs. Jumanji 2 was released in 2017, a few months after the dreadful Tomb Raider with Alicia Vikander, and when I watched it, I was like... THIS is a better Tomb Raider movie!
Van Pelt was the name of the Hunter in the original. Shame they gave someone else that name.
I realized that as I was editing!! I sorta wished they made him a bit similar as the original character at least. Maybe that’s what his dad looked like? We never see him in the movie
So I just recently watched the sequels for the first time (I thoroughly enjoyed them, but for completely different reasons than why I loved the original) and I gotta admit if it wasn't for watching your reaction to the original and this video back to back I never would have realized that they started welcome to the jungle at the same moment the original ended. It had been a while since my last rewatch of the original so that went right over my head 😂
Thanks to you guys, I gotta give the director a lot more credit :)
Normaly I don’t like watching reaction video’s when people have already seen the movie but with you guys it does not matter because you have te most amazing commentary
Y’all know Karen Gillan for the MCU, but she’ll always be Amy Pond, the 11th Doctor’s Companion to me.
You do realize The Rock has many comedy roles as well as action hero ones? The Game Plan and The Tooth Fairy come to mind.
