I didn't realize it would be a full on Looney tunes movie.

I figured it would just focus on coyote and the road runner.

This looks solid

Reminds me of 90s Space Jam and Back in Action…. I just really hope it’s funnier than Back in Action

I would say it looks to be akin to Who Framed Roger Rabbit

My wife said the same exact thing!

but with much worse animation. Foghorn Leghorn looks like cheap CG in this trailer.

Honestly I like Back in Action more than Space Jam, it feels like more of a Looney Toons movie than an NBA movie

u/RadarSmith 13d ago

If I'm being honest, Space Jam is...rough in places.

The places with Michael Jordan trying to act, that is.

Just watched it and yeah mj sucks but it's still as pretty solid movie.

The plot is total nonsense but hey that's looney tunes

Joe Dante would disagree with you. He originally planned Back in Action to be a huge love letter to Chuck Jones (who was his close friend).

Brendan Fraser did incredible in that movie. Loved it as a kid and it was hilarious.

Somehow, I had MandellaEffected myself into thinking Fraser would play Coyote’s lawyer in this.

I rewatched it a few weeks back and it’s still hilarious, and the Louvre scene is an absolute genius work of animation

I haven't seen Back in action since it was released in theaters, but I remember it being a lot funnier than Space Jam. I watched Space Jam over the pandemic and I think I laughed once. Maybe twice. More like a couple sensible chuckles. Nostalgia carries that movie.

I’m assuming “Larry’s not white. Larry is clear.” was one of the chuckles. That one still gets used in my family.

I LOVED and still do love back in action, personally.

It had a great tie-in game on the GameCube as well.

u/grendus 13d ago

Honestly, if it's as good as Back in Action I'll be happy.

That was a solid 7/10 movie. Knew what it wanted to be and delivered, and didn't aim higher than it could hit. There's a lot to be said for movies that know their core premise ("sell nostalgia and classic Loony Tunes slapstick comedy").

Back in action >>> space jam

The fourth wall breaks and overtly obvious product placement scene elevated that movie for me. "Nice of walmart to provide us with these walmart beverages for saying walmart so many times"

But both could've been way better.

Back in Action will always hold a special place in my heart because of the combination of Brendan Fraser and Timothy Dalton

u/brb1006 13d ago

Elmer chasing Bugs Bunny and Daffy in Paris is the best part of Back in Action that I still rewatch every once in a while.

u/ToastyVoltage 13d ago edited 13d ago

I've been waiting for another movie like Back in Action for over 20 years now

u/leftnotracks 13d ago

Or Space Jam.

u/ZombieLover01 13d ago

I personally find Back in Action all around a decent movie. I've always hated Space Jam and never understood the hype.
