Space Jam, starring NBA legend Michael Jordan and the Looney Tunes is a very strange beast and a puzzling piece of 90s nostalgia. Based on an Air Jordan Super Bowl commercial, the movie finds a VERY weird reason to connect Mike to the likes of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig and more for a game of basketball versus some giant alien bugs. The movie definitely raises a lot of questions. Like what’s up with Lola Bunny? Why doesn’t Bugs Bunny ever use the “rule book” trick again. Why was Michael Jordan the only player to be recruited? To answer all these questions and more, step inside the pitch meeting that led to SPACE JAM! It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience!

The most realistic thing about this whole movie is that Michael Jordan couldn't help but indulge his gambling addiction by making a side bet with the alien boss halfway through the game.
-
"YEAHYEAHYEAH" and "I don't know" are supremely underrated catch phrases.
-
"How sexy are we talking?" "Sexy enough that people are gonna be weird about it after the internet goes mainstream!"
-
That Marvin the Martian logic does actually make sense lol
-
That sweet moment when you know "super easy, barely an inconvenience" is about to be said
-
“Track and field might have been more appropriate. Don’t they have the Road Runner?” 🤣
-
when you realize MJ's house in Space Jam was ridiculously below his pay grade but you grew up poor so you thought it was extravagant and totally appropriate : (
-
"I guess people will buy anything if a famous person's name is on it." "That's the whole idea behind this MOVIE, yeah!" BEST JOKE EVER
-
"You're a pretty weird guy, huh?" "YEAH!" His delivery and expression on that line absolutely killed me.
-
I lived near Jordan when I was a kid in Chicago. He had a huge mansion with a big 23 logo on the front gate. Ya know, small and humble.

"You can't hit a girl" "What about Granny, she's a girl" "Yea, but Granny's not hot" I lost it!!!!

Scientist seeing the earth core: "Wait, it's all cartoon" Other scientist: Always has been
-
Lola Bunny single handedly awakened an entire generation of furries
-
"Because he's an alien and a cartoon" Wow, i've never before thought about why Marvin was made a referee but...it makes tons of sense now
-
I never thought about the fact that Marvin the Martian being a loony tune and an alien would mean that he was kind of a neutral party 😂
-
Robocop the original. "So you have cocaine for me?" "A what?" "An 80's movie for me?" Lol
-
It's been a while since I've seen Space Jam. I had no idea how big cocaine was in the '90s.
-
Didn't you say granny got crushed? -Ya but she's not hot so who cares? LMAO
-
"And now Michael's assistant is there, but he's too fat and slow." "It's too bad they didn't recruit other basketball players." "Shut up about that." "Oh okay." HAHAHAHAHA
-
“Well she’s not hot so who cares?” God that’s so depressingly true to reality
