Why you should watch Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

greymichaela:

  • Lead protagonist is Jewish and it’s not played for laughs, in fact it’s not mentioned at all
  • It is, however, hilarious to watch Dwayne Johnson mutter “Oi vey” in between marveling at his muscles 
  • Every single character learns something from the game avatar they’re playing, and how to play not just to their strengths but also their weaknesses
  • When did Nick Jonas get hot
  • Like seriously
  • When
  • There is an actual, honest-to-God friendship between the two female leads where they both learn from each other, encourage each other, and delight in each other’s successes
  • Jack Black plays a teenage girl with such utter enthusiasm that you end up forgetting he’s “an overweight middle-aged man”, and his crush on another (male) character is never exploited for “humor”, not even when he gives mouth-to-mouth to him.
  • Nick Jonas
  • Hot
  • Seriously, the girls’ friendship is amazing and wholesome and refreshing
  • “ZOOLOGY, BITCH”

In conclusion, go watch Jumanji. (Also Nick Jonas got hot)
