Hello, of course as soon as I saw basketball it was obvious that I would participate in this contest with the movie of my youth Space Jam.
In particular I don't like basketball, but this movie has always enchanted me because it is a movie that has immersed Looney Tunes cartoons much better.
And since the theme is basketball, this movie is basically based on the profession of one of the best basketball players of recent times, Michael Jordan, where he is involved in a decision to retire and give way to baseball.
What attracted you to this film?
I've always leaned towards comic book movies and everything else, and this one envelops us in a fantastic and friendly world of fantasy and reality.
What role does basketball play in the film?
In this movie basketball is taken as the challenge to win the world because in a strange galaxy totally unknown to all, in this galaxy there was an amusement park called Tontolandia Mountain (I love this name), this lord decides it is time for new attractions and tells his servants the Nerdlucks (little bugs), to try to find new attractions in this way would increase customers, then that's where Mr. Swackhammer, sees in a strange galaxy a new attraction called Tontolandia Mountain (I love this name). Swackhammer, sees the Looney Tunes on a TV show and immediately believes that these characters would attract many more customers to his business, so he decides to send the Nerdlucks to earth for them.
Immediately when the Nerdlucks arrive on earth looking for the Looney Tunes, and force them to leave by force, the Looney Tunes propose them to play a game of Basketball to define if they would leave with them or not, since basketball becomes the central point of their freedom.
Have you ever played basketball?
I have never played basketball, but I would like my son to, it is a sport that builds a lot of skills in young people and he could go far. The advantage is that my son is tall and would have a great chance.
Is it an inspirational story or maybe based on a true story?
The movie Space Jam is not about a real life story, well not entirely because it shows a little bit of Michael Jordan's professional history including when he was very young playing with his father one night, and Michael tells his father about wanting to be a pro in basketball, and his father asks him to go the same way in baseball which would be a great honor for him.
However, Michael becomes a great basketball star and after being at the professional level, he decides to retire and follow his father's wish, who had already died, to go into baseball. However, he was not as successful in baseball as he had been in basketball.
Already to finish the great duel between the Nerdlucks and the Looney Tunes, they decide to face the big game, but the Looney realize the amazing physical skills that these little bugs have acquired since they had stolen the skills of the best players in the NBA, which is why they decide to kidnap Jordan to help them win the game.
Well my people, I hope you can see it, as well as the Space Jam 2 movie which is also interesting, see you next time.
