New Space Jam 2 is getting panned.  I think we expected that but hoped for better.

Here is ONE persons opinion.

I still want to see it and cry inside a little bit.  I like to torture myself that way.

This topic is so far behind.  No one even talked about the release of Space Jam 2 which was which only has a 4.4 out of 10 on IMDB and a 26% score on Rotten Tomatoes. ;D

That's quite telling.  No one gave two dribbling dooks about this reboot/sequel of a movie which was rather blah to begin with. Little wonder Jordan said no dice, two directors quit, and Tiger and Tony turned it down. They could have resurrected Kobe Bryant from the great beyond to appear in this film, and even that wouldn't have saved this tofurkey.  Yes, it's so bad it's not even a turkey, it's a bland, inferior fake turkey.    :-]

How is season 2 of Animaniacs?  Season one seemed to be considered good.

Water, earth, fire. Long ago, the three seasons lived together in harmony. Then everything changed, when the Shyamalan attacked.....

They were alright.  A little neutered compared to the past, but alright.  Better than most stuff on streaming/tv nowadays.

Only halfway through, so no spoilers, por favorThe reviews I've been reading echo a lot of my own sentiments-- a lot of nice, funny, smart gags, a sly wink and nod or two to the heyday of the show--much-appreciated by nineties kids like myself--but a goodly lot of jokes that just fall flat. The Donald Trump jokes were, frankly, getting stale three years ago. C'mon, writers, you're better than this.  "Bad rug" jokes?  Little hands? Twitter?  "Chump Tower"? Dammit, I was doing that gag back in, like, high school. Up your game, fellas. Will the show last long enough to do a few Biden jokes? Will Biden last long enough for the show to do a few jokes about him?  Uh...er... by which I mean impeachment... um... yeah. (shuffles feet and whistles innocently)   ::|   On the other hand, Brain calling out that pot-bellied little a-hole who's running North Korea was a breath of fresh air. The joke about handing socialist simp Maduro a huge wad of his country's currency and telling him to "buy a stick of gum" had me snorting laughter. Forget the Trump-bashing; I'd actually like to see a whole cartoon mocking Venezuela's failed economy (hell, I'll write it for you), but in an era of liberal Democrats cozying up to such people for favors, I very much doubt that'd ever happen.   P>>

We also agree that the Warners and the mice don't need to carry so much of the water this time around; nixing 80-90% of your ensemble cast without at least having a good replacement or two on deck was probably a bad idea. That said, they acknowledged this fault in one short "Rejected Animaniacs Characters". It's another one of those hit-and-missers, but with promise, and if you know about some of the actual unused ideas for the show-- I mean back in the early nineties-- there's a certain meta-ness to it I really like. (The one about the self-hating cannibal chicken puts that whole twist at the end of "Good Warners Hunting" in a whole new light.  That episode could'a ended far worse-- brrrrrr..... )  Other similar self-referential skits include "The Flawed Couple" and, my personal favorite, "Yakko Amakko" (look for a couple of very surprising guest stars!)

So, all in all, looking forward to watching the other half of this new season.

Due to the Discovery-Warner merger, several things are being cancelled.

Among them is the nearly completed BATGIRL film.  SCOOB 2 has also been cancelled.  That was a short-lived revival.

Much to the joy of some and the anger of many... Warner Brothers makes Velma queer in the latest reboot.  Woke media loves it, their all reporting on it.

Let's not forget not too long ago in a previous reboot, Velma had the hots for Shaggy.

I have heard that the new Scooby Doo spinoff "Velma" has been getting really terrible reviews.  Is it that bad?  More importantly to me at least, I watched the trailer and didn't see Scooby Doo :-0.  Is he in this series?

^ I watched the first five episodes.  Yes.  It is self-depreciating and spiteful.  It is animated very well, but the script is written with spite and hatred.  It's pretty obvious they think this is funny, but it makes it so negative.  Everyone of the characters don't like each other, they tolerate each other, and most hate each other.  Even the ones who are supposed to be friends are cruel towards one another.

There is a joke in one of the episodes where Velma even states, "What is a Scooby Doo?" because Scooby doesn't exist in this show.
