Space Jam: A New Legacy

[Spider-Fan]

I actually like that idea. Have the Looney Tunes play a different sport

We need Richard Sherman for this

Tom Brady

Tom Brady

Yeah, so he can blow the game and have Gisele Bundchen yell at the Looney Tunes for not being as good as her husband.

So like Air Bud & Angels In The Outfield franchises lol

I'd pay good money to see that.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Had this been true, I bet it starts with the Looney Tunes trying to get Michael Jordan back to team with them, but when he tells them he's been retired for over a decade they would then try to get Lebron.

The first film did have a killer soundtrack

 

[Octoberist]

I forgot that R. Kelly's 'I Believe I Can Fly' came from the Space Jam Soundtrack.

It's too late for Shaq now, but he would of been a decent option. Which reminds me I've still never seen Steel.

I remember seeing it now that you bring it up. And what I remember is, you didn't miss much.

 

[Octoberist]

If they used Shaq it should've been done back in the late 90's or right after he left the Lakers. Of course I've always thought that Kobe would've been MJ's successor (as a kid friendly icon) until the sexual related scandal few years ago tainted his image a bit. Of course if that never happened, Im sure WB would stick with Kobe not LeBron.

Right now is there even an athlete that is as world renowned as Jordan was? I mean that literally every single person on the planet knows on sight. You could go to some third world village and they know MJ. Back then anyway.

I don't think so. Jordan was in a league of his own there. Lebron wishes he was, but he certainly isn't.

I would pick this man:

Although the fact that he's not American might prevent that from happening.

 

[E.NormusJohnson]

Lots of people see him as far more charismatic than Michael ever was.

Lots of people? Who? Miami fans and LBJs inner circle?


He doesn't have a 1/3 of MJ's charisma and that's plain for anyone to see who's now lived through both of their careers.

The thing is that everyone would have to know Usain. He's popular and pretty well known but not MJ well known.

 

[Dr. Evil]

He also doesn't compete in the few track meets the United States has. Had it not been for his indiscretions, this man would have been perfect for Space Jam 2 if they went another sport:

He was very popular before his issues.

I would have no doubt though that had the second one been made in 2003 instead of the one with Brendan Fraser, this guy would have been front and center:

Why was he not in the original movie? He could have easily taken the place of Shawn Bradley.

 

[Lord]

I allways thought this was the sequel to Space Jam

To get any NFL player, the NFL would have to sign off and agree to use their logos and trademarks for the movie. The NFL has been very stingy when it comes to that.

 

[terry78]

Yeah, Tiger used to be on par with MJ. Hell, you couldn't not see his face on tv or in a magazine for a single day before...you know.

And he screwed it all up.

Yeah, the NFL is a pain. This is true.

 

[Octoberist]

OMG, after Tiger Wood's sexual escapades, he literally aged like 10-15 years. Even his Asian/Black blood (the grand formula of eternal youth), couldn't prevent this from happening.

 

[Octoberist]

The closest athlete that I can think of who is well known enough, American and has been around for a while is WHITE..SHAUN WHITE. ;0

It's rarely mentioned. Seems like most people have forgotten. Much like Back in Action which I haven't seen either.

I'm not sure they can do much with snowboarding. Tiger Woods might of worked. I remembered there was a golf scene in the original.

The best line in the first film:

"Larry (Bird)'s not white. Larry's clear." - Bill Murray
