Product Description
Product description
Space Jam (Full Screen) [Import]
Set Contains:
Director Joe Pytka apparently has little to say about the making of Space Jam; he leaves most of the commentary to voice actors Billy West and D. Bradley Baker (who took over some of Mel Blanc's voices) in this enhanced edition of the film. The commentators spend most of their time complimenting the actors ("He's a great guy") and the film itself ("Rich, beautiful colors"). Although he made them sound spontaneous, Mel Blanc never ad-libbed: Talented writers crafted his lines. West and Baker aren't exactly raconteurs, and the result is like watching the movie while two guys in the next row talk about it and do so-so impressions of Bugs and Daffy. Also includes three music videos and an alternate music-only audio track. --Charles Solomon

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.
“Space Jam,” the famous 1996 live-action sports film, was directed by Joe Pytka. The movie’s combination of NBA star Michael Jordan and Warner Bros.’s “Looney Tunes” led to a box-office smash, despite mixed reviews from critics. As a child, “Space Jam” was one of my favorite movies. I can, however, understand the dismal critical response as several of the original “Looney Tunes” directors were disappointed with the Tunes’ portrayal, stating that the script was misrepresentative of the classic “Looney Tunes” characters. Nit-picking aside, I still think “Space Jam” is among the best sports films of all time; not only is it highly entertaining, humorous, and phenomenally paced, it’s also inspirational and carries the theme of following your own dreams without being burdened by the expectations of others. As an adult, I must admit that I only rarely watch “Space Jam;” for me, it is really just important to have the movie among my DVD collection for nostalgic purposes and because it features both the “Looney Tunes” and Michael Jordan—two highly relevant entities from the 90s.

SUMMARY:
“Space Jam” opens with an alternative depiction of Michael Jordan’s 1993 retirement from the National Basketball Association; during the press-conference, Jordan announces that he is leaving the NBA to play baseball—the sport Michael’s father had always hoped he’d play—even though Michael isn’t very good at it.
Mr. Swackhammer, alien and owner of the Moron Mountain amusement park, masterminds an evil scheme to increase revenue at his park. He plans to enslave Earth’s “Looney Tunes” and make them his newest and most lucrative attraction. Swackhammer’s henchmen, the Nerdlucks, are dispatched to the secret animated world of Looney Tune Land to capture the Tunes. Bugs Bunny, taking note of the aliens’ small stature, devises one of his famous ruses; Bugs challenges the Nerdlucks to play a game of basketball for the Tunes’ freedom. The Nerdlucks, with no intention of letting the Tunes win, set out to steal the ‘talent’ of the five greatest NBA players. Once the “Looney Tunes” see that they’re no longer posed to play the pip-squeak Nerdlucks, but rather the big and bad team of Monstars, they realize that, if they want to retain their freedom, they’re going to need some help.
Since the greatest ‘talents’ in the NBA are already commandeered, Bugs and Daffy abduct their only hope: Michael Jordan. Jordan is initially reluctant to join the team—explaining that he no longer plays basketball—but once he sees what bullies the Monstars are, he commits himself to the Tune Squad. Even with Michael’s skills, the Monstars crush the Tunes in the first half. During intermission, Bugs takes it upon himself to motivate his team in a way only Bugs Bunny can; he gives his teammates a “special drink” that turns the Tunes into an unstoppable force (it’s really just water). With renewed morale, the Tune Squad comes back to trail the Monstars by only a single point. After taking notice of Swackhammer’s frustration with the score, Michael proposes a new deal: if the Tunes win, the Monstars will return the stolen ‘talents’ to their NBA players; if the Monstars win, Swackhammer will take Michael in place of the “Looney Tunes.”
Now that the stakes have been raised, the Monstars play out the remainder of the game with every dirty trick in the book. As the Tune Squad’s injured-list fills up, they are down to only four players and will likely have to forfeit… that is, until Jordan’s friend and NBA-wannabe, Bill Murray, steps onto the court. Just before the final play, Michael learns that even a human’s physical limitations are different in Tune Land. Just shy of the buzzer, Jordan leaps (in “air-Jordan” fashion) and extends his arm across the court to secure the winning basket.
Even though the Monstars have done terrible things on their boss’s behalf, Michael feels empathy for the abuse they endure from Swackhammer. Before returning their size and talent, the Monstars liberate themselves by stuffing Swackhammer in a rocket and send him screaming all the way to the Moon. The movie closes with everything going back to normal; Michael returns the NBA players’ ‘talents’… and returns his own talent to the NBA as a member of the Chicago Bulls.

Michael Jordan punktet, Bugs Bunny dribbelt, und die Looney-Tunes-Stars halten den Ball alles andere als flach in dieser irrwitzigen Basketball-Komödie, die als eine der ausgeflipptesten Realfilm/Animationseskapaden in die Filmgeschichte einging. Pausenlos prasseln die Pointen, wenn sich die Tunes auf dem Spielfeld ihren Alien-Gegnern zum Korbleger-Duell stellen: Sieg bedeutet, dass die Looney Tunes auf der Erde bleiben doch wenn sie verlieren, müssen sie auf einem fernen Planeten in einem verrückten Vergnügungspark namens Moron Mountain als Star-Trophäen Sklavendienste leisten. Die Außerirdischen verfügen über eine Geheimwaffe: Sie stehlen die sportlichen Fähigkeiten von Basketball-Superstars wie Charles Barkley und Patrick Ewing, um als Monstar-Team unschlagbar zu werden. Deshalb reagieren die Tunes mit einer unüberwindlichen Gegenoffensive ihr Star ist der beste Spieler des Universums und aller übrigen Galaxien: Er ist einfach nicht von dieser Welt. Genau wie dieser Spaß.
