** In fact, each of the other teachers is a ReasonableAuthorityFigure as well. Bethany's is legit calling her out for using her phone and giving her a chance to put it away, Coach Web is encouraging Martha about the exercise and interaction in the class being good for her and only disciplines Martha when she insults her and the Principal Bentley is not mad or angry when Spencer and Fridge are brought to him about cheating. In fact, Spencer also apologizes without expecting any kind of reward in return and Principal Bentley is appreciative of that too.
** The principal goes easy on Spencer and Fridge, giving them detention rather than reporting them to the Honor Council, suspending or expelling them. He tells the kids they made a mistake, and that doesn't mean they're bad people. His speech about encouraging them to be better is extremely effective.

* Their history teacher isn't even mad, just disappointed and sympathetic when she realizes Fridge made Spencer write his essays. She says, "Anthony, I know how much you need to pass my class, but cheating isn't the answer."

* The heroes find themselves at a tree house with a message: [[Creator/RobinWilliams Alan Parrish]] was here. Which in other words, it was a tribute.
** Even better: considering the game reworked itself to suit a new generation of players, it actually remembered Alan and went out of its way to leave a reminder of him.
** The film [[MythologyGag acknowledges]] the [[{{Film/Jumanji}} shoes it has to fill]] when Alex declares that his hideout is Alan's house, he just lives in it.
** The fact that Alan still manages to help someone, albeit indirectly, survive in Jumanji even when he's no longer involved in the game by constructing his tree house and providing a safe shelter for Alex.
** The fact that game kept the tree house at all after reformatting itself. It did away with the man-eating plants, turned Van Pelt from a hunter into a mercenary and changed the way it operates as a game, but Alan Parish will now always be a constant.
* Jack Black nailing his role as a teenage girl trapped in Jack Black's body, without one drop of irony, condescension, or judgment. Bethany-as-Shelly could easily have been a joke or a parody, but he makes her real and complex and genuinely likable.

*** Followed up when Bethany tries to teach Martha how to flirt. It ends up not working, true, but her advice is sincere and she is extremely encouraging all the way through.

** And when the BigBad tries to hold her hostage, threatening to shoot her if they don't give him the jewel (she's only one life left), she tells them not to accept before the other can even finish. Compare with Alex and Spencer, whose ([[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome pretty understandable]]) fear of losing is shown and it takes them some time to overcome it. Even so when Bethany is held at gun point Alex offers to take her place, despite also only having one life.
