Film Theory: The Looney Tunes CHEATED! (Space Jam)

Special thanks to NordVPN for sponsoring this episode!

Space Jam is a cult classic nowadays. With the release of Space Jam: A New Legacy, I knew it was time to cover the now franchise. Watching the original movie, I was struck with a realization. The game was RIGGED... and not in the way you think. The MonStars were never going to win, and they did it to themselves! How? Watch to find out!

the title: looney tunes CHEATED
also Matpat: **talks about the other team the entire time**

[MorriStockYT]

This theory was more like a “why the monstars did not come back” and less of a “how did the looney Tunes Cheat”

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

On the bright side, MatPat had a fun time absolutely roasting how bad the Monstars were

[hazyanimal]

I love how matpat called this video "the loony tunes cheated" then literally spends the whole video talking about how bad the monstars were.
Edit:Wow, this blew up!

[logancollins]

MatPat after putting Lola Bunny on the thumbnail: “It’s like printing my own money.”

[SomeoneIDKK]

“The Looney Tunes Cheated!” Well duh, Elmer and Sam used guns on a basketball court

[Sejju]

"Lets hope Lebron had a better acting coach..."
He in fact did not.

[michaelfisher]

It’s sick to see MatPat actually recognize a lot of true facts about basketball. I grew up on his videos and I’m one of those people who is a huge sports fan and I love video games. It’s amazing to see MatPat talk about basketball

[kevinsargent]

MattPat: Let's hope LeBron had a better acting coach for the sequel
Narator: He didn't.

[crashtefano]

So it basically went like this:
"Let's steal the talents of the five best basketball players on Earth!"
"But we just arrived on Earth! We know absolutely nothing of basketball. How are we supposed to find the best players?"
"Let's just pick 5 players in a random basketball match and hope we can do fine".

[leovaldez]

“Let’s hope that Lebron has a better acting coach for the sequel” Sorry, MatPat.

[ImagineABear]

"Aliens didn't add anything to the equation"
*Patrick Ewing never breathed fire*

[nickwittednonpareil]

MatPat: "I haven't seen the new movie yet, but here is a deep dive into the rules and evolution of the sport that I'm sure will be relevant to the-"

The Movie: "sTyLe PoInTz!!1"

MattPat: *throws clipboard*

[terrysaurusproductions]

Just wanted to point out that the monsters gave back their powers and if they returned, would probably have taken a different teams powers. Just saying

[daysand]

Who doesn't know Michael Jordan?

Woolie's girlfriend apparently.

[guidoguido]

I’m gonna keep saying this: Michael Jordan is not that bad of an actor. He’s not good, but even in the clips you showed, he doesn’t completely drop the ball…

[Psymecoleesis]

Title: "ThE lOoNy TuNeS cHeAtEd!"
Matpat: "Marvin the Martian wasn't impartial."

[novacorponline]

Title: "The Loony Toons cheated!"
Theory: "The monstars are not good at playing basketball."

[thefaceofbobby]

I actually think Jordan did a pretty good job acting for that movie

Marvin the Martian was officiating the game old school style. Hence, the Monstars were able to play like the Bad Boys Pistons & 90s Knicks.
