Space Jam 2 might have both 3D and 2D animation | Art style Explained | Fan Theory | First Look

[@Guywithacamera13]

I wanna call it , if we get Michael Jordan watching the game from his “ house” and he only say “ really?” then we get a after credit back to that moment and we see bugs sitting next to him too and reply back to him , I’m gonna need to call it lol

[@steveross2868]

You are actually correct! Tony Bancroft, one of the animators on the film, said that the film uses both styles.

[@Miglohara]

This isn't really a "secret". Tony Bancroft confirmed the film has both 2D and CGI on Twitter about a month ago.

[@seaniccus]

Welp, it was news to me. I guess I should add Tony to my follows.

[@brianlevine871]

If "Space Jam 2" has both 2D and CGI animation for the Looney Tunes, I can imagine this being similar to the Louvre paintings scene from "Back in Action." And since this movie takes place in VR, maybe this will be an expansion on that concept. Besides, it's always cool when characters would switch between different art styles/mediums.

[@LooneyCartoonMan]

But Back in Action is still a live-action/hand-drawn animation hybrid feature film. But A New Legacy has live-action, hand-drawn animation and CGI where they put the hand-drawn and live-action separate by implementing a strong amount of CGI.

[@klimmr]

I would put money down to bet that the first trailer of Space Jam: A New Legacy will be released on March 13th; during the 2021 Kid's Choice Awards hosted by Kenan Thompson.

[@themesongguy4813]

Hey DippedCookie instead of buying HBO May there’s a website on safari called soap2day. You can watch any movie or tv show on there. So when Space Jam 2 comes out on the first day, you can just watch it on soap2day. No Cap it’s fire 🔥

[@DillonMaynard]

I love 2D animation over everything but I think the switch to 3D while the game is going on could look really good. These semi-realistic characters being flattened, squashed and stretched might make for good slapstick.

[@JudahDeNose]

I'd predict it the other way around actually, I think the 3D is the real world style, and the 2D is the Virtual reality style. That would also give us a 2D basketballer which could be a fun twist.

[@dwaynewood2424]

There's some leaked merchandise deleted by Warner Bros. which depicted Lebron James in 2D style.

[@joeymartinez5814]

Interestingly enough, Looney Tunes: Back in Action was meant to be the anti-Space Jam. Just ask that movie's director, Joe Dante and the movie's screenwriter, Larry Doyle. Both of them hated the original Space Jam because they felt that it ruined the personalities of the Looney Tunes characters. They're not the only ones though. Veteran Looney Tunes director, Chuck Jones also hated Space Jam, saying that Bugs Bunny would have never enlisted the other Looney Tunes characters nor would he have gone crying to Michael Jordan for help. He said that Bugs Bunny would have defeated those aliens, whether they were tiny or colossal, in just 6-7 minutes and not in an 88 minute movie. As someone who is a huge Looney Tunes fan, I got to say, they're not wrong.

[@seaniccus]

That's actually.... a very good point.

[@Ihartwalrusguy]

Ironically Back in Action Destroyed the Looney Tunes franchise to the point of obscurity due to it bombing at the box office which lead to WB abandoning the Looney Tunes franchise for the rest of the decade. So you could say that A New Legacy is the anti-Back in Action

[@Sorcerer-SMC]

Well while they do have points, but I honestly feel like Space Jam is overhated by a lot of hardcore Looney Tunes fans, sure the movie didn’t entirely have the wackiness of the original Looney Tunes, but that didn’t entirely make the movie bad. And I didn’t really see any “change of personality” despite what Joe Dante, Larry Doyle, and Chuck Jones said. I mean again, they do have valid points, but I still feel despite the movie’s fame, it still is kinda overhated

[@geardog24]

I know they want to give her more personality, but there's no need to sacrifice anything...physical. She still looks fine though.

[@maymantheshapeshiftingdemo5182]

Are you asking us not to @ you about how right you are?

[@andrewkful]

If there's gonna be hand-drawn animation, why don't they include those moments in these batch of stills?

[@seaniccus]

Focused marketing is effective marketing. There's a large demographic of general audience that prefers 3D to traditional animation. Showing just this gets that demographics attention -- and if they're Only releasing a handful of stills, with only three of which that have animated characters, mixing styles in those few shots might be confusing to some. Or I could just be wrong, but I don't think I am.

[@josephzielinski8817]

So it combined part 2d traditional animation and part CGI animation effect in Space Jam: A New Legacy, incredible.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@wizardfoxangel5300]

I like the new design of Lola Bunny, she's so cute as always.

[@tparadox88]

Your comment about CGI characters being easier to with with in complicated live action shots makes a lot of sense knowing now that the "upgrade" is pretty much only for the big game.

[@LooneyCartoonMan]

Yes, the film has hand-drawn and CGI where A New Legacy is a live-action/animation hybrid film while the first is a live-action/hand-drawn animation hybrid feature where A New Legacy usually puts the live-action and hand-drawn animation separate by implementing also a strong amount of CGI where it's live-action than animation unlike the first.

[@kingemerald4622]

[@brianlevine871]

@@seaniccus There was a moment in "Back in Action" when one of the bad guys unzipped themselves (classic cartoon gag and all) and one of those 'reveals' included Michael Jordan holding a basketball.

[@tparadox88]

The CG style looks like they aren't going to push it too realistic, but the fur looks a bit overly detailed. The Rocky and Bullwinkle movie from the late 90s or early 00s did a similar art switch. The animated characters start out, well, more like Flash animation than the original 60s cartoons, but flat, and then when the Pottsylvanian baddies get a studio executive to buy the rights to a Rocky and Bullwinkle movie they get pulled out of a TV to become live action characters, while the heroes get sucked into the real world by a literal Greenlight and become CG animation.

[@JoeyBlueJ]

I’m very sure for a portion of the film they will be in 2d form until the final game where they will be 3D

I think it's possible to be interested in the animation choices a film makes even if the film itself doesn't work as a whole. I didn't see Tom and Jerry (I knew it wouldn't be for me early on), but from what I've seen in the trailers I think the animation technology and style are pretty interesting! I can't say I have any interest or faith in the story, though! I'm not sure if Space Jam will tell much of a story either -- but I do like the creative idea of changing styles, even if the film doesn't work out as a whole product.

I was never much of a sports guy. I go to Baseball games with my brother sometimes, but I don't really know any of the players, I just like watching live events and hanging out with friends. I know Michael Jordan was super famous and well loved, but I can't say I've ever watched a single game he played in. I think I went to a Globetrotter's game once? But that's more of a comedy show than a sport.
