Space Jam A New Legacy - From Black Panther to Bugs Bunny

[Trilby]

I remember they were also making a "politically correct" and Disneyfied Speedy Gonzales movie to try and "redeem" him, despite that Speedy Gonzales was well liked by actual Mexicans and some US Latin organization back in the 2000s actually petitioned to have Speedy shorts air on Cartoon Network again and won. Only for CN to move all their old stuff except Tom & Jerry and Scooby Doo to Boomerang a few years later for almost 2 decades, which ultimately led to one of the first kid generations growing up without HB reruns or Looney Tunes.

This would prove to be their undoing in the longrun and ultimately buttfucked a lot of classic IP's appeal among new generations, and all so they could avoid "offending woke or oversensitive parents with outdated jokes". By comparison, Tom and Jerry remain popular worldwide (and Scooby Doo to a lesser extent since most kids these days only know them from those crappy direct-to-dvd movies) because their shit continues to be on reruns and advertised regular via streaming. Kind of ironic now that they're trying to make them relevant.

It's a shame what decisions could do in the long run.

The WWE Scooby films are unironically great. First one's better overall though.

Good. I don't have to waste my money on it than. If I do watch it, I'll watch it via torrent like any smart person would.

What the hell did I just read here lmao?

Its literally Wreck it Ralph 2 and Emoji Movie but with Looney Tunes... And the main driving force behind this bullcrap plot is them fighting to preserve Lebron's fucking instagram account? Fucking really?! They're fighting some irrelevant digital war over a fucking instagram? And what's the villain gonna do? Hack his followers away over to his account with l337 skills? Its HBO Max the Movie set in the streaming service itself.

This really is just shameless advertisement for the streaming service and possibly upcoming shows. I recall people predicting that this movie might actually be a backdoor pilot for a Casa Blanca sequel/spinoff and a Hanna-Barbera show set in the style of the Looney Tunes Show for HBO Max among other things. Imagine my surprise when they posted this as possible proof:

Good grief. H-B lost all relevancy when the geniuses at CN thought it would be a good idea to remove it from the public eye for 15 years outside of some Current Year comics by DC that made 20-30 something hipsters and zoomers mock the old stuff more. And a Casa Blanca sequel/spinoff in Current Year only spells failure or disrespect for the original.

Bill and Joe, and everyone who worked with them, are weeping in their graves.

Why and how the fuck does the evil AI even need to suck Lebron and his son just to get tons of Instagram followers? Can't it just hack his account?

If they did that tho then they can't use this film as a blatant IP farm.

You see friends, this is the product of Ready Player One actually making a slight net profit. Now thanks to that film, you'll see desperate mega-autism crossovers that are purely designed to make people remember IP from over 50 years ago that no one fucking cares about.

Gremlins 2 is the best Looney Tunes movie

Jellystone should have nothing to do with this, it’s from the guy who made Chowder, one of the best late-2000s-era CN shows.

The one that’s just a bit more suspect, however, is Tooned Out, which very much seems like the more cynical marketing choice. Live-action animated hybrid about a guy seeing a bunch of classic cartoons in his head.

Jellystone should have nothing to do with this, it’s from the guy who made Chowder, one of the best late-2000s-era CN shows.

According to his bio, he also wrote for many other CN shows and even Spongebob, so he had a good rep. However his last cartoon called Harvey Beaks was apparently a pile of crap about a gay(?) bluejay that got canned quickly apparently. Although based on a quick search, it seems that may have been due to Nickelodeon's meddling with the show's writing and scheduling. Anyway, I honestly think Hanna-Barbera stuff is too dead to ever be relevant again thanks in part to a lot of mismanaging and most of it not aging well animation wise, and all zoomers care about in regards to them are some shitty DC comics about Quickdraw, Snagglepuss and Huckleberry Hound buttfucking each other in a threeway or the Flintstones being grim moralfagging, so they have nothing but loathing for the original IPs for not being as woke or adult swim-tier as these comics or the Harvey Birdman cartoon. However Birdman probably was the only really good thing that really kept HB stuff relevant in a somewhat positive light but even then that was more of a parody than an actual attempt at making people interested in the old IPs and its time has passed.

No one gives a fuck about HB cartoons anymore thanks to WB's negligence, and those that do are only interested in modernizing them for the Current Year crowd or mocking/deconstructing them, and those that are interested in making something faithful might have a chance (assuming Jellystone is an attempt at a more faithful continuation of HB stuff), but even then there's no real guarantee it'll succeed by being faithful to a source material that only dying boomers and xoomers (and sects of younger retro enthusiasts) will care for. If it draws in little kids and encourages them to watch the older cartoons, sure that'd be great for Bill and Joe's legacy, but they may end up being put off when they see that the older cartoons don't look as "pretty" as Jellystone or whatever new shit WB has cooked up.

The one that’s just a bit more suspect, however, is Tooned Out, which very much seems like the more cynical marketing choice. Live-action animated hybrid about a guy seeing a bunch of classic cartoons in his head.

This does look bad.

Classic cartoons invade the mind of a man named Mac as they teach him the meaning of life.

Its like the Looney Tunes equivalent of those crappy Muppet sitcoms by Disney.

 

[Product Placement]

Tooned Out has Robert Zemeckis involved who did Roger Rabbit, however his last few movies have just been bad like the Witches from last year and Welcome to Marwen.

Sounds a bit more like Sam and Friends really. That's true classic Muppets.

As we mourn the loss of simpler times, a few years ago, a Space Jam animator found test footage he'd made of Swackhammer he thought was long gone.

So the name of the evil computer villain that wants to steal Lebron's instagram followers is "AI-G Rhythm" and is played by Don Cheadle... and Lebron's son wants to be a "video game developer", so I guess he'll "hack" the villain in the end or something.

Space Jam: A New Legacy

Space Jam: A New Legacy, also known as Space Jam 2, is an upcoming 2021 sports comedy film starring LeBron James and the Looney Tunes characters. The film is set to be a direct sequel to the original Space Jam which was released in 1996. The film is directed by Night School director Malcolm D...

What a compelling-looking villain... Its just Don Cheadle playing Don Cheadle on crack.

Can't take him being a villain seriously 'cause Lebron is just giving him a "Dafuq did you say to me, nigga?" look and being literally a head-taller than him could just pound him into the dirt.
