    Fuck Dwayne Johnson for stepping away from being a Democrat because he was losing too many right wing fans in 2020/21. Stepping even more to the right is not not being political.

      That’s what I was thinking. I know there is 2 with the Rock, but never heard of a 3rd. Unless they do count the OG.

      It’ll be the third in the reboot, or the fourth including the original with Robin Williams. There is no canonical overlap between the reboot and the original, so there’s not much reason to count it as the fourth.

          So, I actually meant it tongue-in-cheek, since it’s basically a spiritual successor (and more in common with Jumanji than the sequels).

          But apparently the books they are based on are actually considered in the same universe.

            That’s how I took it at first. But I had no idea there was a second new Jumanji to make the new new one the 4th. I had to look it up on Wikipedia… The worlds source of truth.

      Couldn’t agree more. The first was epic. The remakes were… kinda meh. I regularly watch the OG Jumanji, but i can’t say the same the remakes. I probably won’t even bother downloading J4. The rock is overrated anyway.

    So does being “jumanji’d” refer to getting sucked into jumanji or when jumanji comes out of jumanji. Or is it simply a series of jungle emergencies.
