Just watched space jam 2 and i liked it. It was a fun movie! I didn’t really have a problem with all the references to WB properties although i wish they redid the scene in the original with Daffy kissing his own ass, ‘cause that’s what this movie did a lot lmao.

However, there was a major issue towards the end that i did not like how it was handled, so I’m gonna outline it and post what I would’ve written for it. Probably will post the actual screenplay i wrote for it too lmao.

Spoiler warning!

Anyway, i did not like how space jam 2 handled the ending. I did not have any major problems with the movie except the ending. I get the whole gag that ‘a tune can’t die’ but i kinda wish it didn’t have a fake out like that.

Bugs had been deleted due to a glitched basketball move during the game. In turn, the James family completely forgot about that part and moved on with their lives without ever wondering what happened to bugs. Like, they just glossed over it entirely and I can’t forgive that.

So, my idea, summarized:

Bugs Bunny becomes entirely glitched. Like, frozen in place, glitching between 2D and 3D, his various catchphrases just jumbled together, completely corrupted. once everyone is done celebrating they realize this, but Lebron and Dom are already being teleported back to the real world and there’s nothing else they can do.

The tunes are freaking out. They try various ways to get bugs to respond but to no avail. They begin to lose hope.

In the real world, the James family have not forgotten bugs’ fate. Dom is especially concerned, and sprints past his family to find the manual override of the servers, an old desktop just pushed in the corner and covered in dust. He logs in using an old sticky note and begins to go through each file until he finds the bugs bunny file. The computer alerts him that its corrupted and needs permission to delete. Dom selects yes.

In the Tune world, bugs bunny is deleted. His model completely disappears, leaving the tunes around him frozen as realization sets in. Then, complete chaos. They all burst into dramatic tears, begging for bugs to come back.

In the real world, Dom finds the backup file of bugs and runs it.

In the Tune world, while everyone is sobbing, they hear a familiar voice tell them to stop being so dramatic. Tune’s can survive anything, remember?

The tunes all crush bugs into a group hug, happy ending.

I’m coming out of the grave real quick to say that my cat approves of Animaniacs
