    Congrats on having your own opinion. I still think it’s odd to have rapists court side in a kids movie.

    Amusing, though- it feels like something the filmmakers included just to see if they could and whomever it was that was checking character rights clearances never saw ACO or was unaware of what ACO was about, so it got through.

    who were the rapists? I'm assuming your talking about the the actor not the character? two different things for instance I don't like Johnny Depp and Kevin Spacey and Tom Cruise as people but I love there movies! I mean there are a ton of actors who are Trumpers and support the attack on the Capital even though innocent cops died and innocent military died but I still watch these Trumpers movies...

    @The2ndQuest what's ACO? Besides the fact I don't know what ACO is I just got new glasses after my 40th Birthday on June 5th I even got Invisalign Reader Bifocals my eye sight is really good now! I didn't see anything offensive in the crowd. I think this is stretching it over analyzing it...

    The kitchen sink approach WB IP to Space Jam: A New Legacy is actually a benefit because it is absolutely shameless and tasteless raiding of the toybox. I mean, they straight up put them in Casablanca in an iconic scene and Rick and Morty show up. At a certain point I actually started to admire it being so brazen.

    I watched a YouTube video of someone who attempted to identify most of the Easter Egg cameos in the movie. One of the interesting references was the
    DeLorean from Back to the Future; which is actually a Universal movie.

    It's pretty obvious that SJ2 took that gag from RPO figuring that it'd be a hit among the nostalgia types. It was more show than anything else in the latter movie, though.
    What exactly were they there for; they already had an audience by getting all of LeBron's followers zapped in.

    With all due respect to the production team, I don't understand why they're making this movie, beyond the monetary motivation.

    I'd like to see a prequel movie about the Jones' dog; the real "Indiana". Heck, they could even call it, "Indiana Jones"...period.

    It's certainly different. The 80s and 90s pop culture stuff in the OASIS had an impact on or affected the players in there.

    What is the point of having Granny be in The Matrix or have a guy in The Mask costume be behind the bench?

    I think Spielberg and Ford genuinely love Indiana Jones and enjoy making the movies, and want to go back to that world again and try to make another one of their favorite movies. I think there’s a desire to go out on a stronger note than KOTCS, too.

    I don’t know that it will be good, but I don’t doubt the intentions of the core team.

    In fact, I just watched it again. Saw it the first time in the theater, but I currently have a Hulu subscription for some reason, so I decided to give it a second watch. Just as good the second time.

    I hope the entire movie is just the Munsters in the tone of that scene introducing the Myers family in the Halloween reboot.



    God, that movie was foul.

    Well, I just watched I Care a Lot.

    There's a great movie in that premise if you do it right. Spoiler: they didn't do it right.

    Eiza Gonzalez remains like the most beautiful woman in the world though. Even with what I suspect was purposely intended to be a de-glamorized look. You can only do so much to make a goddess look like a normal human being. Messy hair? Not gonna cut it. I guess she's with Timothee Chalamet at the moment and if they have children, the world will probably implode from how good looking they are.
