Jumanji 2.0 Not What You Expected
Blasphemous! The 2017 Jumanji reboot does not feature a board game
It features a video game. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle features a video game; Video... not board.
Speculation says the appeal to younger generations will boost sales. Old fellas say sales will plummet (original release was 1995 — dating all the millennials here).
WRITER: Let's reboot Jumanji
PRODUCER: Uhhh
WRITER: Here’s the twist: Jumanji….is app for iPhone
PRODUCER: [spit-takes coffee for 8 minutes]— Jason O. Gilbert (@gilbertjasono) March 28, 2017
The Jumanji movie won't have a magical board game. Maybe the next Jurassic Park won't have dinosaurs.

The controversial flick contains a star-studded cast of Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, Karen Gillan, and *surprise surprise* Nick Jonas.
If you're curious about how this classic with a twist will turn out, don't hold your breath. The Ireland release date is December 29, 2017.
