The Rock will not humor your critiques of Jumanji's internal logic
Look, The Rock knows nonsense. The Rock worked for Vince McMahon. The Rock wrestled for the WWE. He knows how to sell feuds with no coherent buildup. He knows how to make an unearned face turn pop. His first gimmick was “wears crepe paper?” and he still spun it into stardom. So, now that he’s a bonafide Hollywood star, The Rock will not hesitate to tell you that, no, actually, this story does make sense.
Perhaps feeling emboldened by his name, Twitter user James McMahon (no relation to the WWE dynasty), took to Dwayne Johnson directly with a critique of the star’s Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle. His beef? The game within the film’s inconsistencies when measured against the larger realm of game mechanics.
Seems like a valid complaint. Anyone who’s lost hours of their life to a lack of save points can tell you that games are rarely so kind. But that’s when the music hit, the Titan Tron lit up, and The Rock sauntered out with a microphone. “Finally!” he cried. “The Rock has come BACK to the internet!” He’s got an answer for McMahon, and, unlike his ass-based 1999 feud with Billy Gunn, it actually makes sense.
