    I watched this long ago when I was very young and knew almost nothing about
    life, the universe and everything.

    Yes, I guess it sucks, but hey, I was a fan of Michael Jordan...like everuyone
    else.

    It brings tears to my eyes to watch a bad movie being torn apart that way, just
    to make me happy.

    Thanx maistro.
  • an_square_one
    My brother and I used to watch this all the time when I was about ten years old.
    And even back then, I thought Michael was an awful actor.

    It was funny to see Dan Castellaneta and the mum from 'Everybody Loves Raymond'
    randomly in the crowd.

    This film was sucky.

    Thanks for the entertaining review

    i wathed this when i was a kid and it was ok then but now....it looks like shit
    and i didn't think then but damn bunny boobs those guys are twisted!!!
  • tapirtoon
    I always knew somthing was "funny" with that bunny.
  • NinjaMaster551
    I remember loving this movie as a little kid I'd probably hate it now.

    I used to love this movie as a kid.

    When I first saw this, I thought it was mediocre, meh. Now, it looks like a
    horrid piece of crap. Thanks for enlightening me on a movie I haven't seen in
    years.
  • qwertyblue64
    I think the thing with Lola was less offensive for younger kids who didn't know
    that the sexualization of animals was perverted. And there are a lot of people
    on the internet who would like to f*** Lola Bunny. Maybe not a real bunny but an
    anthropomorphic bunny. You probably know who these people are.
  • Sandheaver
    First time I watched this review, I nearly wet myself laughing. I love this
    review!

    I remember liking it when it first came out (I was about six), but since then, I
    have grown up and it no longer produces the laughs.
  • ilikeshinythings274
    I'll tell you what's amazing. Siskel and Ebert both gave this film a thumbs up.
  • evilunclefrank
    My favorite story about this steaming turd of a movie came from voice actor
    extraordinaire Billy West, who voiced Bugs and Elmer in this movie. When he got
    his invitation to the premiere at Grauman's Chinese, he noticed that all the
    voice actors were being shoved into a screening at the SMALLER theater, not the
    big one with all the movie stars. When West inquired about it, the answer he got
    was, "Oh, the big theater is for the ACTORS."

    The cokeheads who greenlit Space Jam (and, I might add, Batman & Robin) didn't
    know shit about the characters they were dealing with, or even the animation
    process itself.

    Incidentally, have you seen Looney Tunes: Back In Action? It's actually pretty
    decent. Not a perfect movie, but it's a fucking masterpiece compared to Space
    Damn.

    To be fair, Siskel was a Huge Chicago Bulls fan, so I think we can call a little
    bias on that review.

    Plus they are 2 of the most over-rated, nonsensical talking "reviewers"
    ever and have proven time and time again they know nothing about film.



    That may also have something to do with it.
  • God
    So the Nostalgia critic is the reason Bill Murray was in Lost in Translation?

    Anyways this is my fav review of yours. The rant about fucking bunnies is the
    reason for that :D
  • Ben Laserlove
    I remember loving this movie as a child, and looking back now, the only
    redeeming quality about this movie is its soundtrack. Fuck yeah, Fly like an
    eagle!
  • DoctorShroom
    You've obviously never heard of Furries. Lola Bunny is probably a major reason
    why their are so many of them today (Other then Disney's Robbin Hood or Krystal
    from StarFox Adventures).

    Space Jam has fundamentally warped the collective mind of an entire generation!
  • Mech
    For many of us who did indeed love the film as children (OK, I did too, I'm
    guilty), we loved it simply because our innocent minds had not yet been tainted
    with the knowledge of concepts like marketing and product placement...

    Of course afterwards, we all realized that this film is just... well... how does
    one put it, blasphemy?
  • Dakota
    I also recall a shitty song that came with the video. They made us exercise to
    it in gym back in Elementary school.
  • ClarkSavageJr
    I remember the promotion for this film when it was first coming out, and as I
    live in the Chicagoland area, and this was during the period of Jordan's
    "second coming", the "Repeat Three-peat", it received move
    coverage than perhaps in other parts of the country. I recall that then Chicago
    Tribune film critic, the late Gene Siskel, sitting down with Jordan in an
    interview and telling him right to his face that his performance was
    "flawless". :D I wonder whether he was in film critic mode or Bulls Fan
    mode at that time?
  • RentheadSuperstar
    I was on Imdb today and it says "This is the first appearence of Bugs
    Bunny's SEXY love intrest Lola!"


    ...WTF!!!!???
  • elias
    Well... I liked the movie when I was a kid...
  • HOTsuma91
    I loved this movie as a kid.

    Apparently I was retarded.
  • Iconbuster
    It was ok when I was a kid, but I think Looney Toons back in action was way
    better, and I actually would like to hear your opion on that movie, maybe not as
    the Nostalgic Critic, but just your honest view of it. Inless you really do
    think its bad, then do it as the Nostalgic critic, and make it funny. lol
  • lewis
    great never get tired of watching this
  • OuijaSlayer
    I kinda liked the movie, but looking back now they really DID make Lola a sex
    symbol! O_O

    Horny bastards! D:

    Lol great review
  • masterem243
    I loved Space Jam when I was a kid; but when you look at it now, it really is a
    piece of shit.
  • Konata Izumi
    That bunny has bigger boobs than me, and I'm 18 :o
  • ninjaboyz101  - okay
    yeah, that will have the guy swarming all over you.
  • Lotta Cooties
    It also has bigger ears than me, and i am 25!!! :o :o :o
  • MasterofChief
    This was a terrible movie, and it is good to see someone finally ripping into
    it, Congradulations on one of the few sites I am proud to be a member on.

    Thank you Nostalgia Critic
  • Steini
    Wait a minute! Has this review been extended? There's some new material in there
    that I don't remember seeing before.
