Is it gonna be some kind of subversion where a sentient Thimble owns everything on the planet and charges everyone preposterously high rent until everyone but the Thimble starves to death and the Thimble realizes it actually has no wealth whatsoever?
Or is it just gonna be like Battleship where it becomes about aliens for some reason?

Serious answer, probably the first one. Monopoly was originally created to teach about how wealth gaps become bigger over time.

Overall, I’m actually interested in this movie.
If either of these prove to be true, I think I’m actually on board.
I’m game.
I hope it’s not another Battleship, but I have a strong feeling it’s gonna be another Battleship.
No way, they wouldn’t take an almost unrelated movie and add like two references to the board game and call it a day. Right?
My favorite part is gonna be when John Monopoly pauses dramatically before saying “It’s Boardwalkin’ time!”
Oh man that will be so epic!
The first one, but not a sentient thimble. I believe those pieces are intended to represent industries.
