A bad movie

I really didn’t like ’Space Jam’ much but, I have to admit, it was actually pretty successful so, unsurprisingly, 7 years later they came up with another movie mixing living action and those awesome Looney Tuned and guess what? It was even worse! The main issue with ‘Space Jam’ is that it shamelessly combined the most popular sport man at that time, Michael Jordan, with the Looney Tunes when those had nothing to do with each other. So, this mix was kind of stupid but, at least, it was a good marketing stunt and the movie made some bucks. This time, they followed more the true spirit of the Looney Tunes (apparently, Joe Dante really hated ‘Space Jam’) but, somehow, the end-result was even more underwhelming. I don’t know, maybe it is because Brendan Fraser and Jenna Elfman didn’t have enough star power or maybe it is because the story was just plain tedious. Anyway, the extreme failure of this film discouraged Warner Bros. from making any other installment and they even cancelled the release of the newer Looney Tunes shorts that Warner Bros. Animation completed, and canceled those in production. For Joe Dante, this failure was a huge blow and we don’t hear much from him nowadays. To conclude, I really didn’t like this movie at all and I don’t think it is really worth a look, even if you like the genre.
