Literally everyone. Everyone could have predicted that an almost 2 hour long advertisement for the NBA and various WB/Disney properties would flop.

The original was a product of it's time. It wasn't a good movie, but a movie with great timing. It also got lucky coming after Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which opened a bunch of people up to the idea of a live action/cartoon crossover.

It would be like trying to make a sequel to flubber. Yeah, the original was a cult classic, but it was more a product of it's time than anything and you don't have Robin Williams to carry it anymore.

Lebron James is also almost as terrible as Elon Musk in regards to substituting money for talent. He's just not a good actor unless he's taking the piss in every scene he's in. Like a less talented John Cena of all things.

Whoops.

ESPN was actually the one I was thinking of. Which is Disney. But yeah, it's technically WB/Disney.

Maybe TC knows about a secret Disney acquisition of Warners Bros, finally a Marvel vs DC.

The original Space Jam was bad. This one will hold a special place in people's hearts the same way.

if i was 5 years old again I would probably enjoy this movie because it has that actor that plays Warmachine from the MCU. Also, I heard that Lebron James makes an appearance in the hit show "Teen Titans Go" and I'd prob be watching that show too (if i was 5 years old) and be excited that Lebron James is on Space Jam 2.

The old Space Jam was bad, so what made you think a new one would be good?

It'll still make incredible bank, and that's all that matters.

Nobody under 15 knows who the Looney Tunes are. The only people wanting to see this movie are the 30-somethings who grew up on MJ, saw the first Space Jam, and so will take their own kids to see it along with them.

Had this been some kind of Space Jam with cartoonized-MCU characters, now we're talking. Looney Tunes does not exist in 2021.

I don't know how true that is. There's an updated version of Looney Tunes on Cartoon Network that gets fairly heavy rotation.

No, it's because they took out Pepe Le Pew.

That depends entirely on the parents. My 6 year old nephew loves the Looney Tunes because my sister and I got sick of him watching the same 5 Youtube vids of children playing with toys so we introduced him to old Looney Tunes and Tom & Jerry shorts

My 8-year-old doesn't watch any Looney Tunes but still knows all the famous characters, because they're still pretty ubiquitous
