You certainly aren't alone! Even Robin Williams poked fun at the resemblance in one of the gag reels, calling him Lon Chaney Jr. and "Wolf Boy" before wondering if there was a full moon out.

A law of Jumanji having been broken You will slip back even more than your token - the consequence of that riddle is a transformation penalty it means a player tries to cheat and transforms into the animal that he or she has picked
@oftheother10 ай бұрын
The film doesn't draw much attention to this for some inexplicable reason but Peter's token actually returns to the start after he cheats, which is why the riddle makes mention of it. According to some commentary tracks and one of the novelizations, the slipping back refers to a devolution, or slipping back to a pre-human state. ...But then other materials say that he's turned into a baboon, which is divergent species sharing a distant common ancestor, not an earlier point on the evolutionary line of humans. So it's all a bit unclear. *Jumanji magic.* Since we only see one playthrough of the game in its traditional board state and only one instance of cheating, its hard to say if the penalty holds any consistency, or if it's more bespoke to each player. For instance, I doubt every player's Van Pelt looks like Alan's father. Referring back to the novelization (and perhaps some earlier versions of the script), there's an incident during the first day at the Shepherd kids' new school. The child of Ms. Thomas (the realtor) calls out Judy's lies about her parents' death, and Peter winds up biting him, after which other kids call him an animal. Though never shown or elaborated upon, this incident is mentioned by Aunt Nora during the dinner scene early in the film ("I can't believe I have to see your principal after the first day. What am I gonna do?") It's also worth noting that he cheats at the game without consulting anyone, which follows from his unwillingness to communicate after his parents' death. Speaking and other means of sophisticated communication are our privileges as humans, but in his grief he rejects these abilities and embraces a more primitive state of being. This also leads him to suffer in pain when his tail is stuck in his jeans, until he finally admits to Alan what's wrong, and he accepts his help, his pain finally relieved. Ironically, it's only in his monkey form that he finally speaks to his aunt. So his being turned into an animal is something of a natural step in his character arc, albeit it's an arc not fully present in the finished film. No, I'm not the biggest Jumanji nerd on the internet, why do you ask?

His token was a monkey and it was also set back to the beginning. If Judy or Sarah or Alan had cheated they would have turned into their tokens too.

There is a bright side to his transformation. One good thing about it is that he has monkey teeth that he uses to bite Van Pelt to save Sarah. And the enemy found himself bitten by an animal.

Plus his tail proved handy when narrowly avoiding the jaws of a Jumanji croc. All considered, getting his token sent back to the start was probably the harsher side of the punishment.

It's fitting, Bradley Pierce watched the Planet of the Apes films during some of the long hours sitting in the makeup chair. Also, in one of the gag reels, Robin calls him Roddy McDowall, who famously portrayed the apes Cornelius and Caesar in the early PotA films.

If that's what you like to imagine. There's no definitive answer one way or another. That said, it would be much harder to continue playing as an elephant or a rhinoceros, unless they were still partially human, as Peter is.

why is it called jumangi?
@oftheother8 күн бұрын
Chris Van Allsburg, the author of the original Jumanji book, claims it that a Zulu word for 'many effects.' I don't know that it's actually, true, as that spelling of the word seems to have only emerged with the book. One person has noted that it bears a slight similarity to the actual Zulu word "eminingi", which does mean "many". Oddly, the spelling is actually closer to the Japanese word 十文字, anglicized as Jūmonji, meaning cross or cruciform. The only connection I see there is the crossroads of the boards paths, each meeting at the center.
