A ramshackle jungle quest run on wisecracks and cheerful peril
The difference: Period river adventure with a romance and no game rules to exploit

A goofy adventure where humans and impossible creatures collide
The difference: Kid-skewing Chinese fantasy — humor gets broad and cartoonish

An unremarkable person finding out they can do the brave thing
The difference: Gentle daydream drama, wistful instead of loud and joke-driven

Slapstick and spectacle fused into one big fantastical quest
The difference: Stephen Chow's absurdism — stranger and more uneven in tone

A mismatched party bickering through a quest built on game logic
The difference: Full sword-and-sorcery world, with no teenagers or real-life stakes

Witty where it counts, playful underneath
The difference: Goes its own way on the scale

Kasdan again sending mismatched partners on a lore-heavy romp
The difference: Critics panned it — franchise gloss with far fewer laughs

A ridiculous high concept used mostly to let a cast riff
The difference: Raunchy adult comedy that stays put instead of going adventuring

Ordinary people yanked into a rule-bound supernatural world
The difference: Burton's macabre streak — gags skew ghoulish, not adventurous

Characters dropped into a story world and made to play its parts
The difference: A musical that turns dark, with songs where this has slapstick

Kasdan's comic timing with a gleefully terrible protagonist
The difference: A mean-spirited classroom farce — no adventure, no fantasy

The comedy of a mind stuck in entirely the wrong body
The difference: High-school do-over comedy, with no quest and no jungle
