Does the original Space Jam hold up?

Do we care about spoilers? Eh fuck it I got some screenshots from /tv/ of cameos and references, anything that's actually part of the main Lebron plot blows even harder anyways


Cringe
At least WW doesn't looks like a troon
 
Speaking of the Rick and Morty bit….

damn as i said before at least ready player one had a reason to cram in all the refferences and characters, the world it was set in was built around them. This? This is like warner saw wreck it ralph 2 and said "oh you think your's is big? check out ours it's huge!"

This is like the epitomie of consooomerist culture, it starts out with "hey remember 1998?! Remember the Gameboy?! (I'm amazed they used am actual Gameboy game) and it just piles on more remember this? or you know that? with an opening that's a blatant retread of the opening to the original.

All in al I'm not amused by what I'm seeing so far.
 
Space Jam 2, aka Ready Player One 2, aka Member Berries: The Movie 2.

Also, I like how James Lebron is decently animated, yet his dull voice acting proves he couldn't give a shit.
 
Him and Brad seemed to enjoy it as a “almost so bad it’s good” kinda way.
at least they have that luxury for me it's BORING! When it's not boring it's cringe ,and when it's not cringe it's just warner trying to say how cool they are. Yeah cause everyone loved Scoob!. Teen titans go to the movies and all the other garbage they've made the last few years. I'm finding myself skipping through this, something I almost never do.

fair point its better than the show but you just know they showed the poster for it cause it's still relativley new...and availbe now on hbo max only 14.99 a month plus tax!


What? they're so shameless they may as have had ads flashing on screen at some points.


If i wanted to watch classic movies like matrix, fury road, Casablanca, or everything else they just reference at random I'd watch the actual movies.

I fucking lost it when in the first 20 minutes of the movie they had already said "The Warnes Bros. Serververse™" 5 times.

It's so cringe how anytime a character even hears the name "Warner Bros." they gotta smile or say how great and amazing it and all of its characters are.

Also good on Sarah Silverman for landing a job on this. Bitch probably worked a day, didn't even have to reshoot any scenes and in 6 months most people will completely forget she was ever in this trainwreck
 
I just wanna see the Looney Tunes playing basketball again. Why feel the need to cram in fucking Rick and Morty? Man, remember that scene from Looney Tunes: Back in Action where Shaggy and Scooby made a brief cameo? Well, if that film was released today, I assure you there'd be at least 100 more scenes like that, with lots of different characters.

Space Jam 2, aka Ready Player One 3, aka Member Berries: The Movie 3.

FTFY. You forgot about Ralph Breaks the Internet.
 
Just watched it with a friend for laughs since we like the first one and damn, Space Jam 2 is legitimately one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I was expecting a cheesy so bad it's good kind of movie but it's just an ugly, poorly-made, contrived, boring, disaster of a movie. I can't even imagine kids liking it.

So who was sucked off harder in this, James or WB?

It's hard to say. They really pimp Lebron out as the "Bestest of the Basketballers Greatest Athlete Alive of All Time" a whole lot, I don't even think they gave Mike this much hype back in the original one.

Even with all the push tho, he comes off as such a weirdo in this movie. Guy's obssessed with nothing but baseball and is even willing to reject millions of Warnes Bros. dollars so he can keep himself dedicated to his craft. It's like they didn't even see the irony.

I don't remember them hyping Mike much at all since he was playing baseball at the time. They sure didn't call him King every 30 seconds, and I'm not even sure he was once referred to as the best bball player at all.

Speaking of Michael Jordan, that was probably the only half decent scene in the movie.
 
congratulations warner if the end goal was to make people stop riffing on the original space jam you succeeded in that regard and failed at everything else.

I mean, they kinda did since everyone was being super nice to him about sucking at baseball, but it was an obvious joke. This just sounds overly mastabatory.
 
"Oh Pete... Lebron James is more than just a basketball player or a celebrity. He's a family man, an entrepreneur, a social media star with billions of fans all over the world and he has unparalleled fame... but he's even more than all of that... he's a KANG! I NEED KANG JAMES! THE MOST FAMOUS MAN IN ZA WOOORLD PETE! DA BEST!"

I'm cringing. Only 1 minute into this shit (yohoho!) after fast forwarding through the boring family crap and this is just embarrassingly self-fellating. Did Lebron demand his ass be kissed feverishly in order to appear in this pile of shit?

And the music. Dear Lord, its so bad. What were they thinking when they made this movie? I honestly just started fast forwarding through this crap after 10 minutes and after seeing the cringetastic Rick and Morty clip everyone was talking about. And Lebron is just a terrible actor.

FYI, the core plot of this film is ripped from Hook (bad guy tells hero's kid that his dad's bad and bonds with the villain instead, etc). It also turns out that the big crowd scene is a lot lazier than previously thought. More than half is people summoned from the real world while the Warner part of the audience is partly just generic bad guys, like Tim Burton Batman movie minions, pirates, GoT ice dudes and Mad Max goons. Seriously do I really have to spoiler this? There's literally nothing of value in this film worth spoiling unless you give that much of a shit about pointless cameos. Only thing of note was a Michael Jordan fakeout gag. The nerdluck aliens from the original Space Jam also appear but they're just lazily clipped out from scenes of the original movie.

This whole thing, as has been said many times, was just a mediocre 2 hour ad for HBO Max and basically Ralph Breaks the Internet but for Warner Bros, and with the added bonus of being a giant dickriding machine made to jerk off Lebron James. Thank Heaven it only took 20 minutes to skip through this crap.

I was thinking about watching this thing drunk, but I don't think it's good enough for even that. Learning that this thing is celebrating his self-righteous Malcolm X wannabe bullshit (one of the reviews I've read notes that his bitchfit over some Fox News anchor rightly telling him to "shut up and dribble" is included in the movie as a career highlight) was the last straw. I'm not watching, I hope it bombs like a fucking nuke. If I wanted to watch some egotistical celebtard suck his own ten-foot dick for two hours, I'd look for an autofellatio video with Ron Jeremy.
 
I recall one good gag out of that whole film. The part where Yosemite Sam "shoots" the ball. Everything else is filler at best.
