Space Jam [DVD]

And welcome to the jam. Spacejam something something Spacejam. Alrightx3

Just watched this movie with my daughter when she was sick and it made us both smile, and she's even feeling a little better... :) Love it..

My husband and I were wanting to show our girls something we enjoyed as kids and Space Jam did not disappoint.

I can’t say enough good about Space Jam because it’s a classic, but most people don’t seem to regard it as such because unless they grew up watching it they can’t see past the silly premise. And truthfully, the premise of Space Jam IS very silly. Who would have thought a basketball movie with Michael Jordan and all the Looney Tunes would make something so entertaining?The very idea of the movie was inspired by old television commercials Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny used to share that advertised sneakers and such. Somehow, the famous comedy film producer and director, Ivan Reitman, became inspired enough to do a feature length movie about these two. Space Jam tells the story of Michael Jordan’s real-life change from a basketball player to a baseball player. Although he believes he has no inspiration left in him it’s up to the Looney Tunes to help him rekindle his passion for his true sport before the movie’s over.Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd and the other Tunes happen to live underground in another world that humans are unaware of. Five goofy looking aliens from an alien theme part have been ordered by their boss to invade this cartoon world so they can imprison the Looney Tunes and make them into an attraction. The Tunes are cocky enough to believe they can beat the aliens at a game of basketball in exchange for their freedom, but things take a turn for the worst when the aliens successfully rob real-life basketball players of their talents so they can transform themselves into hard shooting basketball monsters! With no other choice, Bugs and the others think it a good idea to recruit Michael Jordan so they can play this game and win their freedom.Despite the story’s very silly set up, Space Jam is a very down-to-earth movie with a lot of heart and passion going for it. The biggest challenge this movie faces is how it combines live-action humans with animated cartoon characters. The audience can actually relate to Michael Jordan and the other human characters despite the animation, which was no small feat. The Looney Tunes even manage to snag our emotional investment because this movie doesn’t downplay the serious conflict they have to overcome. This combination was done successfully only once before in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.The story is ultimately a tribute to two things. Basketball and the Looney Tunes. I am not personally a fan of Basketball, but I recommend you at least be a Looney Tunes fan to enjoy this movie. Whether you like the sport or not doesn’t distract from the enjoyability of this movie. But the all-star cast of real-life basketball players (besides MJ of course) is quite impressive. The basketball playing itself has just enough realism behind it to make us appreciate it as a game, and not just comedic possibility. Most of the movie is animated, but it is the most top notch animation of its time and it still hold up pretty well to this day. This also being the first feature-length movie to have all the Looney Tunes, it’s a fitting tribute with all the cameo appearances and slapstick humor that’s true to the old formula.Space Jam really is a freaky movie, because it was done so well and it hasn’t aged in the least. How? Maybe because it came out at the right time, during the 90s when kids movies were still campy and they were not all big-budget blockbusters. This movie still makes us cheer with excitement and shed a tear of hope because no other movie has since done it quite the same way Space Jam has. Of course, the soundtrack definitely helps. With songs like “Fly Like an Eagle” and “Monstars Anthem”, there is a lot to be excited over. Of course, no song can come close to the magnificence of “I Believe I Can Fly”. This is the one song Disney can never hope to top, because it’s pure inspiration and hope. It’s a wonder how Space Jam got ahold of such a song, but it’s a song that will never be disconnected from this movie, and with good reason.Space Jam is a film that somehow managed to take this silly idea of a movie and turn it into something kids still want to see after they grow up. I know, because I’m one of them. Other bad movies start off as silly but never reached their potential because Space Jam is one of those rare movies where the passion shines through and sticks with everyone who was young enough to enjoy it at the time. So whether you’re a Michael Jordan fan or a Looney Tunes fan, this is a movie for the ages.

This isn't Carl it's his wife. Love the move one of my old time favorite move as a kid and wanted to share it with my future child to come..

Best Space Jam of all time. MJ for life baby.

Great price

Loved rewatching this classic 90’s movie. But like most 90’s films, the sound quality was horrendous! Be prepared to keep your remote in your hand to control the volume throughout the movie.

Ich liebe denn Film immer noch ...Hat sich bisher nicht geändert...Für Groß und klein super geeignet 😉👍🏻

自分と同年代のマイケル　ジョーダンの唯一現役時代の主人公映画です‼️ バスケの神と同年代で現役バリバリで最高ですね‼️

Great!
