With so many massive studio tentpoles springing up all over, you’d be forgiven for letting the gestating Jumanji remake slip your mind. The rework of the ’90s kid-friendly fantasy film, playing under the somewhat unwieldy title Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (yeah, tack the tagline right onto the title, why not!) will come to theaters December 20, but prying eyes have already ensnared some key details about the film. There was the whole brouhaha surrounding Karen Gillan’s hilariously impractical jungle outfit and her mealy-mouthed explanation as to why her character had to get all hotted up for a nature expedition, a controversy I have dubbed Midriffgate, and now today brings news of another curious detail of story.
Robin Williams opens up about his life, his views, his feelings, and how he became the pop culture figure he became in a startlingly intimate video from the UK.
So maybe by now the passing of Robin Williams is "old news" but since I haven't really talked about it yet I wanted to share this amazing tribute video. There are many out there on the interweb and they are very moving of course but there was something about this one that just made me want to share with you...
