  (#7) Alan Yells "Roll The Dice" In 'Jumanji'

  From Redditor /u/swimtothemoon27:

  I’ve watched this movie so many times since I was a kid and can quote pretty much the entire movie. Well this time watching, there was something I had never noticed before. After Alan rolls the dice for the first time and he gets the message, he looks at Sarah and says, “until the dice read 5 or 8.... what’s that mean?” Both look confused and worried. As he is being sucked into the game Sarah is screaming and he is yelling. All the times before I thought he was just yelling and calling for Sarah. This time I noticed he actually yells, “Roll the dice!”
