I like how one of the rules of Jumanji is that if you slap any player character on the left boob/chest area you can see their strengths and weaknesses. Including if they are a horse.

#they're going to do a third one right? #get into the implications of jurgen the brutal having a player menu too? #you can enter jumanji and play as a villain? #in the second movie they don't get to select their characters because the console is partly broken #but presumably after you've completed the initial jaguar quest you unlock new options in the character selection menu #how long had jurgen's player lived in the game? #who were they? #had they entered the game before Alex Vreeke did? #what form was the game in when they entered it? #because when Alex's father found it washed up on the beach it was still a board game #when Alex wasn't interested in playing it the game transformed into a video game console while he slept #can it shift back and forth between these forms? #does it default to a board game? #why does a game like this exist? #we never actually find out if the characters' belief that if you lose all three of your avatar's lives you really die is correct #or what the board game version's equivalent of that would be #was it created to be a trap #or was the maker just a bit more adventurous than most and overestimated other players' appetite for mortal peril
