Yup, Sony is officially remaking "Jumanji" -- and it's your 2016 Christmas present. If you're of the anti-remake mindset, that news may make you as angry as a troop of monkeys destroying a kitchen. But then again, it's hard to deny that the 1995 fantasy movie could benefit from some better CGI in the remake.
On Wednesday, Sony Pictures released its film slate through 2019 with release dates for 16 new films, including the new "Jumanji," "Bad Boys 3" and "4," and a new date for Paul Feig's "Ghostbusters." News of a "Jumanji" remake first broke in 2012 when Sony announced plans to update the Robin Williams fantasy film for the present. Now you can expect to see a modern revamp of the movie on Christmas Day in 2016 -- here's to hoping they release an updated version of the board game as well. Check out the full slate of release dates below, via Variety.
"Money Monster” -- April 8, 2016

I saw jumanji in theaters when i was young. Loved that movie. Its almost insulting that they would remake it lol.
-
Please tell they not trying to remake Stephen King's Dark Tower too SMMFH....
Didn't even know that series had a movie adaptation. But yeah that's what it is, comes out in 2017. -
No words smh.
-
Fake and they need to leave Jumanji alone and come up with some new ? SMMFH. In the 90s we didn't need 101 back to back sequels we came up with classics and summer blockbusters.
So is this fake or not?
My 3yr old would like to know -
No never. People have been trying to adapt it for the last 15 years though.
Oh and this isn't fake. This is officially Sony's upcoming movie slate as announced by them earlier this week. -
Why remake a good movie?
Just to do it? -
Im not mad at a Jumanji remake
The special fx need an upgrade. The monkeys look terrible.
Plus its not like they dont remake everything else -
Hol up Bad Boys 4?????
So Brandon T Jackson and *insert rapper* -

-

My son loves Jumanji and since its a movie that relies on special fx i think a remake is a good idea.
....now if they ? around and try to remake the sandlot i will take offense

Just seen the original for the 1st time this year
-

Used to watch this movie all the time as a kid. now I know how you older heads feel when them 80s movies are remade, ? doesnt feel good at all
-
Original ideas are overrated.
-
Is this legit???
-
A reboot is unnecessary. The original concept leaves so much room for a spin-off/sequel. All you have to do is make it so that another kid finds the game.
I just hope it isn't a reboot in the sense that their just trying to throw new point on the original.
