When I watched this film, I also remembered my uncle who had just passed away. He took me to the cinema with my cousin. I don’t play basketball but I also know stars like Jordan Barkley. I am also familiar with Bugs Bunny, but I watched it at the time. After understanding the general plot, I ordered HBO and reviewed it this time for the lead of Zhenglian (Later I discovered that Netflix also has orz, which can be regarded as preheating for the James version. This time I found a lot of new things.
It turns out that the "villain" at the beginning came from outer space and was directly a cartoon image, so it can seamlessly dock with Bugs Bunny and them. That's why this film is called Space Jam, but all the following plots take place in Warner World on Earth. At home, this film is actually "Warner Jam" in the strict sense. After so many years of baptism of various outer space animations, this outer space element appeared out of date.
The ordinary state of those little aliens is also very cute, but in fact they don’t show too many alien "traits". Except for occasionally taking out the alien laser gun, the behavior of pulling out the laser gun behind is basically gone, playing basketball. At the time, there was basically no use of alien technology, and maybe due to the technical conditions and animation creative problems at the time, the aliens who obtained the abilities of those stars did not show the characteristics of each star. It's just strong. The villain boss was eventually killed by his own men. Unlike the current animated villain boss, there is a high probability that he will open a final weapon robot and Jordan 1v1. In addition, the phenomenon of basketball player loss is considered to be an alien virus, which is a bit like the situation of 2020/21 ahahaha
The way of playing basketball is also completely cartoonish. There is no one to care about on the court. You can ride a small motorcycle to grab the ball. Originally, Jordan planned to train Bugs Bunny but didn’t practice much in the end. You can do it if you can’t do it yourself. The middle Bugs Bunny also had a placebo effect.
It seems that there is a dark line in this aerial slam dunk. It is the story that Jordan went to play baseball in order to realize his father’s dream, but did not go well, and then returned to the basketball court. It is interspersed with the story of his son playing baseball after he became a father. He also lost on the court, but then the plot between him and his son disappeared. The plot also satirizes the big company's squeeze of stars, whether it's the alien planet Fool's Paradise intending to force Bugs Bunny to be coolies, or later making Jordan the object of the Paradise squeeze.
The actors turned out that Bird Bird and Bill Murray were also there, and Bill also had a small story line of his own, that is, he always wanted to be a basketball player, and had a rivalry with Bird Bird, and finally appeared on the stage. The acting skills of several other basketball stars and Jordan are more cute than the naked eye. Barkley has the most roles but the cute acting is not as good as O'Neill.
Except for a few basketball stars and Jordan’s family, there are no other black actors in the film. The assistant is a white and vulnerable group. There must be a problem with it now. Although the bunny girl is not so hot in the new James version, the description of her female character in the film is still quite positive. As long as someone calls her "pretty doll", she will immediately return the color , Just satirizes those superficial behaviors that only look at the appearance and ignore the ability. In the end, it can be regarded as a simple official match with Bugs Bunny. Now as an adult, he suddenly understands Bugs Bunny when he sees her. Haha.
By the way, Mickey Mouse was cueed in the film. The Das Mickey Empire probably won't let its signature character be so messy in the live-action version.
ps Now because of RKelly, the theme song of the film is quite embarrassing, and it will basically never appear in public again. Fortunately, the streaming media has not harmonized the song.
