Watched the 1995 Jumanji last night, my husband was sleeping so I had volume really low and subtitles on. Sarah and Alan start playing the game in 1969 and Alan’s roll is “in the jungle you must wait, until the dice read 5 or 8”. As he’s being sucked into the game, he yells out “Sarah!! Roll the dice!!” I have seen this movie more times than I can count and never ever heard that part before, only him yelling Sarah’s name. And I only realized he said “roll the dice” because I had subtitles on. After he’s fully sucked in, the bats from Sarah’s first roll come out of the fireplace and chase her.. if she had come back to Alan’s house after getting chased by the bats, would she have been able to try to get him out if she kept playing alone? Since they were the only 2 people playing, if she rolled again for her next turn, and did not get a 5 or 8, would she be able to just keep rolling since Alan was inside the game and couldn’t roll until he got out? Or since there was 4 playable game pieces total, would she not even have been able to roll again and the game would make them wait for a 3rd and 4th player to finish the game? Just a random thought I’ve been wondering about since hearing the “roll the dice” line I never knew about.
