The studio executives just thought they had a slam dunk with this....well at least with kids. Will, Mike, and Sam kick off (or in this case tipoff) the second year of the Commit One Movie Podcast by looking at a beloved childhood film, but the flaws stand out more to adults in the 1996 live action/animated film Space Jam. Starring NBA legend Michael Jordan along with the Looney Tunes characters, the film features some....interesting...acting from athletes (but what else would you expect?) and questionable characterization from the Looney Tunes themselves (Bugs Bunny needing help.....seriously???), it is still a fun time to be had with some good basketball moments and a few good laughs. And with the sequel, Space Jam: A New Legacy, coming out next week, it seemed like the perfect time for the Commit One crew to make an easy layup with this wave of nostalgia.
