Fantasy for the Ages

Dumb Fun or Just Dumb? | Not Sure 2025's Anaconda Works


Listen Later

They remade Anaconda… and made it a comedy?! Oh boy. 🐍


In today’s episode of Fantasy for the Ages, Jim dives into the 2025 remake of Anaconda, a film that takes the cheesy creature-feature fun of the 1997 original and… does something VERY different with it.


Starring Jack Black and Paul Rudd, this version leans hard into comedy, meta-humor, and over-the-top ridiculousness. The question is… does it work?


👀 In this review, we cover:

• What the movie actually is (because it might surprise you)

• A spoiler-lite breakdown of the story

• What works (yes… some things do!)

• What really doesn’t

• And whether this remake is worth your time… or totally skippable


As someone who genuinely enjoys the original Anaconda, Jim went into this one with very mixed expectations. Curious? Concerned? Slightly afraid? Yeah… all of the above.
