[00:00:12] You go to patreon.com/slash flagrant2 with no more interruptions. [00:00:17] Here is the exclusive clip. [00:00:25] Here's something about the Space Jam movie that I don't know if we've spoken about in this podcast, but I think it's interesting. [00:00:31] Huge fuck up was using the old cartoon characters. [00:00:35] This is a kids' movie. [00:00:36] There are going to be adults that go out of nostalgia, right? [00:00:38] Yeah. [00:00:39] But these kids, they don't know what the fuck Daffy Duck is. [00:00:43] They don't know what Bab's Bunny or Bugs Bunny or any bunnies are. [00:00:47] Okay. [00:00:47] They know Fortnite. [00:00:48] They know Minecraft. [00:00:50] They know these video games. [00:00:51] They should have done the Space Jam movie with the new cartoon characters. [00:00:56] The issue is Warner Brothers. [00:00:57] It's Warner Brothers. [00:00:58] Well, Warner Brothers got to partner up with somebody else. [00:01:01] It's just another different, just a different movie. [00:01:03] That's pixels and Ralph. [00:01:06] What I'm saying is these kids don't give a fuck about those cartoons. [00:01:08] They're just dated. [00:01:09] The storylines don't matter to them. [00:01:11] There's no connectivity. [00:01:12] They just, instead of doing anything that was like updated for the audience, they just like updated it for adults. [00:01:18] They like tried to make them robots instead of... [00:01:21] It was just like, none of this matters. [00:01:23] And there was three things. [00:01:24] It was like the real D, the 2D, and the 3D version of it. [00:01:28] And LeBron is a cartoon. [00:01:30] But think about this. [00:01:30] You're a kid. [00:01:31] They bring you back to the 2D, the old cartoons, right? [00:01:34] That you've never seen in your life because you're a kid and you don't watch those cartoons. [00:01:37] It means nothing to you. [00:01:38] So that's just for the adults, right? [00:01:39] Then you see these cartoon characters that have like inside kind of like nuanced jokes playing off of the idea that you understand who these characters are. [00:01:47] You don't get it. [00:01:48] You don't understand why the lady's drinking a martini and she's drunk or this other guy has a lisp and he's just spitting all over the place. [00:01:54] You just don't like, what's going on here? [00:01:56] There's a lot of these inside jokes to a group of people that aren't on the inside. [00:02:00] It's literally a movie for adults. [00:02:02] But I didn't even see a lot of the cards. [00:02:04] The commercials that I saw, they didn't even show cartoon characters really being funny or making jokes. [00:02:08] Just some locker room stuff. [00:02:09] I mean, I saw like maybe an extended thing of it. [00:02:12] I was very like, they're just trying to do too much. [00:02:14] And I think if you at least kept it with the Space Jam thing, you could have got the adults. [00:02:17] Yeah. [00:02:18] Would have watched it for nostalgia. [00:02:19] Or if you do a modernized, you can get the kids, but they didn't do either. [00:02:23] I mean, he's missed the mark completely. [00:02:24] It's the most LeBron James way to do this. [00:02:27] If funny thing about it is like the, what's the guy's name who plays the villain? [00:02:30] Don Cheeto. [00:02:31] Yeah, Don Cheeto's character is like, and if you lose the game, all the cartoons will be deleted. [00:02:35] They've been deleted. [00:02:37] Nobody knows who they are. [00:02:38] It's done. [00:02:39] It's over, Warner Brothers. [00:02:40] It's not happening no more. [00:02:42] You didn't keep curating new cartoons with these characters. [00:02:45] So the next generation did not get attached to them. [00:02:48] It's over. [00:02:48] Don Cheeto won. [00:02:51] The only people I can see watching this are our generation. [00:02:56] And our generation doesn't really love LeBron. [00:03:01] Mark's generation likes LeBron. [00:03:04] That's their Jordan. [00:03:05] I spoke to a guy flight club who has LeBron tattooed on his leg, gave me all the reasons why Jordan isn't even close to as good as LeBron. [00:03:12] It was like, you couldn't even compare the two in his mind. [00:03:16] But us, we look at this movie like, why would they ever give anybody else in every way? [00:03:24] Space Jam. [00:03:25] Like, you can't, you can't do that. [00:03:27] The Space Jam LeBrons. [00:03:29] Look, the idea is that you get the parents who like the first one and bring their kids. [00:03:33] They introduce them to all these old school Warner Brothers characters, and then they can make spin-off movies and bring the bugs together. === LeBron Jordan Generational Divide (03:34) === [00:03:39] That's fine, then do it back. [00:03:41] Do that shit with Dora the Explorer. [00:03:42] Do that shit with the SpongeBob, whatever it is. [00:03:45] SpongeBob SquarePants, whatever, right? [00:03:48] Like, you know what I mean? [00:03:50] Do that shit with Rick and Morty or whatever. [00:03:52] Like, do it with the cartoons that these kids fucking watch. [00:03:54] That's the issue, though. [00:03:55] Kids' cartoons now are like kind of trash. [00:03:58] I'm like looking through the fucking thing. [00:03:59] You would say that you old mother pig, bro. [00:04:02] Do it with Peppa Pig. [00:04:04] Kids love Peppa Pig, dog. [00:04:05] Fire. [00:04:05] Peppa Pig. [00:04:06] Peppa Pig? [00:04:06] Yeah, you're just old. [00:04:07] You don't know. [00:04:08] Yeah, you don't know. [00:04:08] My nieces love Peppa Pig. [00:04:09] Ninjago. [00:04:10] Do it with Ninjago. [00:04:12] Do it with the waifu with a tentacles. [00:04:18] Come go some waifu. [00:04:19] Let's go. [00:04:21] Tentacles are the dunk just like Michael at the end of the movie. [00:04:23] Real talk. [00:04:24] Stretch it out. [00:04:25] You know, so I just feel like they, like you said, miss the mark in every single way about this movie. [00:04:30] It's absurd. [00:04:31] Yes, it just seems so poorly done. [00:04:33] Like, I have no interest in watching it. [00:04:35] And Koogler, whatever his name is, I know to hit. [00:04:38] That's nice. [00:04:38] I also think if you're Cougar, it's like, I can't say no to this opportunity. [00:04:41] I get to remake Space Jam. [00:04:43] But you're remaking it within the confines of Warner Brothers, and Warner Brothers shit fell off. [00:04:48] It's just over. [00:04:49] I love Bugs Bunny when I was a kid. [00:04:50] It's too bad. [00:04:51] Yeah. [00:04:51] Too bad. [00:04:52] All right, guys. [00:04:52] We're going to take a break from that exclusive Patreon clip because you need a new wallet.

[00:07:10] Shout out to him. [00:07:11] Shout out to him. === Blackface Controversy Explained (04:42) === [00:07:13] Damn, bro. [00:07:14] Black dude's been missing lately.

[00:07:24] He's a cool director. [00:07:24] That's what it was. [00:07:25] Soulman. [00:07:26] Space. [00:07:27] Barbershop, the next cut. [00:07:29] Night school. [00:07:30] Girls' trip. [00:07:31] Classics. [00:07:31] Roll Bounce. [00:07:32] Roll Bounce actually got roll bounce is great. [00:07:34] Nah, Girl's Trip was fun. [00:07:35] Tiffany had some decent that movie. [00:07:37] I made that movie. [00:07:38] But did it do well in the box office? [00:07:39] You can go. [00:07:40] I guess, no, that's an important thing. [00:07:41] Like, if it did well in the box office. [00:07:43] Because if it killed, it's like, yo, little kids loved it. [00:07:45] Exactly. [00:07:45] Maybe little kids still fuck with Looney Tunes. [00:07:47] Did it do well? [00:07:47] What's the numbers of it? [00:07:48] Because apparently, some of these shows like Sesame Street. [00:07:51] I mean, I just did one fucking Google search. [00:07:52] Nah, kids love Sesame Street. [00:07:53] Kids are still watching Sesame Street. [00:07:55] I have not a word about Space Chan from my nieces. [00:07:57] Sesame Street, I hear. [00:07:58] Peppa Pig, I hear. [00:08:00] Sesame Street's an institution. [00:08:01] Paw Patrol. [00:08:02] Nah, he was gone for a while. [00:08:03] I came back. [00:08:04] It was coming out this weekend. [00:08:06] Oh, it hasn't even come out yet. [00:08:07] Jesus Christ. [00:08:08] I mean, that's how you know. [00:08:09] This ugly ass lola. [00:08:10] I'm trying to see if it's going to be one of these films that also drops on. [00:08:13] That's another thing they did. [00:08:13] They didn't sexualize the female characters. [00:08:16] They purposefully desexualized. [00:08:17] That's what I'm saying. [00:08:18] And kids now, they love fucking anime, bro. [00:08:21] They like sexualized hair. [00:08:23] They want hentai. [00:08:24] They want waffles. [00:08:29] They want waffles. [00:08:30] Soggy waffle. [00:08:30] Yeah. [00:08:32] But, but for real, like, I know it sounds super weird, but they did this shit. [00:08:36] I think you would have joke about it with Simba's bitch. [00:08:39] What's her name? [00:08:40] Nah, Nala. [00:08:41] With Nala. [00:08:41] Nala's fine as fuck, yo. [00:08:43] You always make the character sexy. [00:08:46] The Pixar motherfuckers know how to do it. [00:08:47] The Incredibles, the mom look bad as fuck. [00:08:49] She got the super fatty with the tiny snatch waist. [00:08:52] Yeah, crazy dumb. [00:08:54] Crazy. [00:08:54] Walking around with fucking Rick Shaw. [00:08:56] She's like the Ricky. [00:08:58] You know what I mean? [00:08:59] She got the Rick and Tender back there, dog. [00:09:02] So I could have rode her into the wedding. [00:09:04] Real talk, bro. [00:09:06] This is incredible, dude. [00:09:07] Oh, my God. [00:09:07] Spanking that thing to speed it up. [00:09:09] Yeah, elastic puss jumping out. [00:09:12] Stretch it out, but not too stretch. [00:09:14] Yeah. [00:09:16] All of a sudden, they know what the fuck they're doing. [00:09:18] They're sexualizing the characters, and then it gets to the haircut, and it's like, we're a conservative. [00:09:21] Yeah. [00:09:22] We know what you're doing. [00:09:23] Yeah, we get it.
