Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

Quite frankly, I'm a die-hard Looney Tunes fan and even I hated the piece of crap. --Wack'd About Wiki 12:33, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

I believe most adult fans of both cartoons and basketball/Jordan would agree that merging the two subjects is a silly idea, which isn't implemented particularly well in this movie. 惑乱 分からん 10:18, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reference to MIB?

"One scene references Pulp Fiction, with Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam dressed as killers and "Misirlou" in the background. This is also presumably a reference to Men In Black." Didn't Men in Black come out in 1997? If so, how can this film, released in 1996, reference it? Undersea

how old are you wack'd about wiki? This was a childrens movie and was aimed mainly towards them,note the comic actions and exaggerations done by the characters to show they're intentions. This was a great movie that iloved when iwas 4yrs old and still do. this movie beats shaq's Kazaam by a thousand.24.66.94.140 19:49, 4 September 2006 (UTC)hope.

[edit] Canon

"Reviews of the movie were generally negative. Many critics compared it unfavorably to Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a popular film in which cartoon characters and live-action humans coexisted in the same film as well.[1] Basketball fans thought the movie to be demeaning to the sport, and to Michael Jordan himself. Many of them also claim it was not canon, despite referencing real-life events."

Who claims it's not canon? Basketball fans? This appears to be saying that basketball fans refuse to accept that Space Jam actually happened to Michael Jordan. I'd change it, but I'm not even sure what it's supposed to be saying Lore Sjoberg 22:17, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Success or Failure

Alright, alright, I'm totally confused. The movie was successful or negative? The reception or the movie says that "Reviews of the movie were generally negative.", but the Looney Tunes article says that "Space Jam was somewhat succesful despite it's odd plot". Space Jam is good or bad? User:Leader Vladimir

[edit] Answer to your questions

Actually, the film got negative reviews. The film itself grossed well over 90 million dollars, making it a success. However, negative and successful may lie in the eye of the journalist!

By JS

Then, in conclusion, Space Jam is both a critical failure and a financial success. User:Leader Vladimir

[edit] Final Score between Monstars and Toon Squad

I watched the Vcd yesterday and the final score of the basketball game between the Monstars and the Toon Squad was 77-78. How could it be 86-88? User: Ken Seng1991

It's really a trivial detail- it's enough to say "they won". --Wafulz 05:43, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
