Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)

I just saw Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. It was excellent! A fun movie from start to finish. I love how they included a bunch of video game tropes into the world, like NPCs repeating their one line over and over.

No spoilers, but I caught two subtle references to the original Jumanji, marking this a definite sequel, not a remake or reboot. I'd highly recommend it!

Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005)

I finally got around to watching Zathura, the unofficial sequel to Jumanji. (Only took me 12 years)

This film was actually pretty great! I don't know why it did so poorly when it came out. Probably because it was following on the heels of Jumanji and was essentially Jumanji in space. Also, despite its original book version, the movie makes no reference whatsoever to Jumanji, which probably made people think it was just a clone rip-off.

I'd highly recommend checking it out! I'm about to go see the new film, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. It looks pretty awesome!

Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

I saw Star Wars Episode VIII today. It was excellent! I especially love how they included a lot of humor in this one. Star Wars has always been an action/adventure drama, so it was nice to have some funny lines and witty banter.

Spoiler: C3PO's red arm is never explained. Despite all the attention he brought to it in episode VII.
