Space Jam 2 Is Happening, Has A Director, Will Star LeBron James. Rejoice Emotionally Stunted 90's Kids!

Every three or four years, some poor souls hired up by Warner Bros.(or more likely their marketing team) finds a new way to desecrate the great Looney Tunes characters in an effort to make them "edgy" or "totally modern bro". The Looney Tunes Show didn't work, that Loonatics Unleashed thing failed, all these kinds of efforts just never go anywhere and it's not surprising why. Characters like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck were created to work in the environment of 8-9 minute long short films run before motion pictures in the 30's and 40's. It boggles my mind that the folks over at Cartoon Network (a TV station that, like Warner Bros., is owned by Time Warner) don't just do little short films with these characters to air on their network instead of putting all of this energy into new "hip" versions of the characters that don't catch on.
