Zathura: A Space Adventure - 2005
After their father (Tim Robbins) is called into work, two young boys, Walter (Josh Hutcherson) and Danny (Jonah Bobo), are left in the care of their teenage sister, Lisa (Kristen Stewart), and told they must stay inside. Walter and Danny, who anticipate a boring day, are shocked when they begin playing Zathura, a space-themed board game, which they realize has mystical powers when their house is shot into space. With the help of an astronaut (Dax Shepard), the boys attempt to return home.

I like how people complain that this movie is a ripoff of Jumaji even though both movies are based on books, both of which were written by the same dude he just wrote a book about jungle themed board game and a different one about space themed board game so if anything the author ripped off himself

@hope-cat4894 3 года назад

It's a board game cinematic universe!

@Nekufan1000000 3 года назад

I think it's more how what happens in Zathura feels like everything that happened in Jumanji. Person trapped in the game, attacked by a scary thing that gets trapped in the house (Lion in Jumanji, robot in Zathura), being hunted by someone trying to destroy the board game (aliens, big game hunter whatever his name was). The author copying himself isn't an excuse for an adaptation to not do something different.

@kwasibrew8072 3 года назад

@@Nekufan1000000 And both have a character much older than the protagonists that played the board game and never escaped, now returning to help our child heroes. Except in Zathura, instead of just being straightforward, they decide to make it a twist that honestly didn't need to be that confusing.

Zathura was actually written by the same person who wrote Jumanji. Zathura is actually supposed to be Jumanji 2 since the book says the Jumanji game changes with the times to be more appealing with the space theme.

@TheHufflepuffSaint 3 года назад

The fact that Dwayne Johnson was in the reboots with his "comedic" acting ruined the reboots entirely. The main high point of the original was Robin Williams. And at least the first one was original much like Zathura as they were written by the same guy... Whereas the Jumanji Reboots was nothing but cash grab for sake of nostalgia.
