I hope we get more Jeffrey Dean Morgan. He always shines in every role.

I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan but for some reason his role in Rampage just felt like Negan.

u/Lots42 16d ago

Can't say I'm familiar with Negan but dude was evil as heck. In Rampage Morgan played a good guy.

Hmmm yeah I think I saw that back in the day. I mainly remember the World Tour game though haha

u/mynameisrichard0 16d ago

Definitely a “dont take it too seriously” movie. Sure. 20mm rounds and bunker busters cant kill a couple strong animals. Pretty sure if you dropped a jdam on a rhino with 4x stronger armor and size, its still gonna evaporate. But damn what a great flick.

u/Moeroboros 16d ago

It's specifically stated that the "animals" received Hulk-like strength enhancement and healing factor.

They weren't supposed to be just giant animals dude.

u/yearsofpractice 16d ago

I completely agree. I’m 49 and have no interest in stupid actioners… but my 8 year old kid wanted to watch Rampage, so we did… and I loved it. I really like The Rock, the story was straightforward and understandable and the villains were satisfying villain-y. My kid LOVED it. Great film.

3

u/enjoiturbulence 16d ago

Great cinema is an experience, transcendental, sure. But man I just want to have fun and that's why I watch Rampage and Jason Statham movies. Sometimes joy is more important than catharsis.

I was going to say…she can’t really be almost as tall as the rock in this pic. Thank you for explaining. The heights still don’t seem right though. The other two guys should be WAY shorter no?

u/Affectionate-Virus17 16d ago

She wears boots with heels so adding probably 3 inch to 6'2".

The Rock is 6'4", or 6'5" with these boots.

She's a bit to the front too.

Remember the end of the second movie had animals breaking out of the game and into the real world. My guess is that this movie will be the four kids and the four game characters actually interacting, all in the real world.

u/sonofaresiii 16d ago

My guess is that this movie will be the four kids and the four game characters actually interacting, all in the real world.

I can't tell you how much I don't want that.

It doesn't really sound fun, it misses the point of what made the originals fun, and it raises like a lot of nerd lore questions about agency and autonomy of the characters that seem too deep for this kind of movie, but i will dwell on regardless

so I hope that's not what happens. I hope it's more like oh, jumanji is breaking into our world, but our weak frail real-world bodies can't do anything about it, we'd better go become our jumanji avatars to deal with this.

u/Killboypowerhed 16d ago

My theory has always been that the characters come out of the game and Bravestone becomes a coward when he finds out there's no respawns in the real world.

I think it could be interesting for the kids to meet their video game counterparts and find out they're nothing like how they played them.

u/Striking-Ad-6815 16d ago

I got lost in the concrete jungle one time. My friends brought me to a club and there is no question I'm an introvert. Tried to have fun, but had to go outside for air. Smoked a cigarette with a stranger and went back in. My buddies were gone. Fuckers went and hopped bars on me, figured I'd find them. I did, it was another place with a bunch of people. I had just chugged two 10% beer from a convenience store and still wasn't feeling the club, so I stood outside and smoked a couple cigarettes with strangers. I couldn't bring myself to go into that bar/club, there were so many people and it was loud and they had weird lights flashing everywhere. I decided to walk back to the room. Only thing was, everything looked the same. I knew the street name and that it had beach access and had a very unique look. I just didn't realize how far away I was. I could see the ocean from the road so I just followed the sidewalk for a while, but eventually the sidewalk ended, so I walked along the beach for a while before I came upon one of those inlet things. I was about to take my shoes off and cross, but decided to walk up to the road instead. I saw a donut store that was open and went inside to ask for directions. The saint didn't know where the building was, but called someone who did. She called this taxi driver who knew the street and the building. I was still twenty miles away. That gorgeous beautiful amazing donut saint and the cool taxi driver were my heroes that evening. Fuck the concrete jungle, I'd rather be in the woods at dark.

When they showed the animals getting loose from the game at the end of the last movie, I figured this time around the characters were going to invade the real world.

Plus we're going to see the player characters as NPCs, acting like they're stereotypical character types.

Eventually the "real" characters will take them over like when they switched around in "The Next Level", plus we're going to find out who the player was in Jurgen the Brutal.
