Same I was 7 when this came out and it was a huge deal. It's sad that they don't make movies and great soundtracks like this anymore going to the movies use to be worth it.
@@alexanderrmz9701 Yeah. Some kids only hate it because some dumb and woke UA-camrs said that it sucks. Unfortunately some kids these days act like that, if they hear their favorite UA-camr insult a movie they think it's right to hate on it or to call it a guilty pleasure (even though the movie is actually great). Take as an example Happy Feet, Patch Addams or Pirates of the Caribbean. They get hate by these idiots for the same reason
@Vincent Daly Nostalgia critic said it was. Idk who else though. To be fair though when the movie came out it wasn't for his demographic. He was 15 years old. So it shouldn't be that surprising that he didn't like it. I'm pretty sure my parents weren't that big of fans of the movie either. The people who loved this move were born late 80s to late 90s at the most. I myself was born 1995 and as a kid could not get enough of this movie. Even had a little book based off the movie.
Piros too bad the sequel wasn't as good as this movie, i was hoping Mr. Swackhammer would return to seek revenge on the "Toon Squad" for turning the Nerdlucks against him but instead the sequel sucked!
This opening did more for kids believing in themselves than anything taught in schools. The footage of Michael evolving over the years were a promise that you can do anything you set your mind to.
I thought all it took to be MJ was shooting in my back yard at midnight. One time I got up at midnight grabbed my basketball and headed to the back yard to go shoot. Soon as the lights popped on it was 3 raccoons by the basket. I ran back in the house...I work in insurance now.
I saw it when i was i kid ( i born in 2005 so im not from the time this movie went out) and i was very excited seeing this mpvie with that fantastic song 😎
Yeah nothing will. My class went to see this movie on a field trip and this morning scene had all our jaws floored. Classic. The feeling was so surreal
This intro to Space Jam never gets old. It's amazing how the makers of this film added MJ's first retirement from basketball at the beginning of the film and added his return to basketball at the end of the film. Probably were references to say the least.
Crazy part is they filmed it summer 95 after he came back at the end of the season but wasn’t 100% and they lost in the playoffs. Then he filmed this movie while having open court scrimmages with a rolling cast of all the best in the NBA. Then he led the bulls to (at the time) the best regular season of all time and won another championship. THEN the movie came out after that. Couldn’t plan it any better, cause they had no idea that would happen while they were shooting the movie
This was such an original idea for a movie. The intro was pretty lit for kids back then. Every kid loved Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny. It was the best of both worlds.
@@Gundam4 Take a look at all the other movies. Parasite, The Father, Avatar (a while back but still good), etc. Originality is at the same level as the 90's, in that there was still lots of it but lost in certain aspects in some movies.
And indeed it was original one-of-a-kind movie that should have stayed as such. Original these days are waning. Take a look at Disney they lost all sense of creativity
And I wasn’t even alive in 96 and grew up in the Kobe and lebron era and I can tell ya today’s kids don’t know jack shit how great MJ was compared to lequeen.
Outside of the obviously better soundtrack, what made this intro so much better is that MJ's plays were just much flashier than Lebron's and this intro did a much better job highlighting them. The switch hand layup, the shot against those Celtic players, the dunks, the shrug, that nasty steal and immediate score. Above all else, it just illustrated that his trademark ultra competitiveness was just at a much higher level.
My school was so poor it only had 1 film. So whenever our class done something good (e.g. good grades or whatever) we got to watch a film. Usually I would've been pissed seeing the same movie over n over..... However, luckily for us, the movie was Space Jam :)
My kid, who is 30 now, and I watched Space Jam on a vhs tape about a hundred thousand times. But after the first 20 times we watched just the intro, that I like, then fast forward to the game that my kid liked. Bill Murray’s, whoa Mike I don’t play defense, after Jordan reminded him that they weren’t inbounding the ball, is one of the funniest lines if you play and coach team sports, of all time. I still have the vhs tape.
grandparents introduced me to this and i can never thank them enough ❤ used to watch this practically everyday on vhs and they put up with it. miss em always
MJ, Looney Tunes, and a Soundtrack that had people dancing and vibing like crazy. This movie had everything for us 90s kids and its still talked about hard!!!!!

He had a stacked af team, I'm not taking anything away from him but Lebron has never had a team like MJ had. Including first years of Miami. People underrate how damn great Pippen was, then you add in Horace Grant, Rodman, Ron Harper, etc

I bet most of us hadn’t heard it in nigh on 20 years. All of a sudden we were all 10 years old again. It was glorious.

We saw this in theaters on opening night, and I kid you not, these opening credits had kids and parents alike ROARING. You had to be there, it was so awesome.
This is seriously still one of the best movie intros ever made. The way it builds up and then the intro sequence itself with the song and the intercutting Jordan gameplay clips. It's flawless.
Michael Jordan had a celebrity appeal that no other athlete has matched since. He was like a mythological hero in real life. People all over the world who didn't know anything about basketball knew who MJ was.
Having said that ...in one since i didnt have 1 which just added to my love of this movie even more....was kinda an swesone "escape"....if that makes any sense
This movie was simply EPIC and MAGICAL. I watched it so many times. I almost cried watching this. Through the lens of a child the 90's produced so many great memories. I loved being born in the 90s.
i was pretty disappointed that they didn't play the space jam theme song in a new legacy i was looking forward to hearing that theme song on the big screen
@@GamerLegend.97 The movie is like a big advertisement for Warner Bros. They didn't have almost any heartwarming moments or at least quite moments. They couldn't even play I Believe I can fly. All we got for the soundtrack is a lot of bad rap songs or that awful remix of Pump the Jam (except the two songs of John Legend, those were good)
@@GamerLegend.97 I don’t give a fuck. I watched both these movies for Bugs Bunny, his best pals, and nothing else. To hell with everything that’s been happening over the last few years. Just make an epic fucking movie with hilarious fucking cartoon characters.

Saw the intro of Space Jam 2 ------ MJ's intro is the winner. GOAT!!
The single greatest montage of all time!
This is seriously still one of the best movie intros ever made. The way it builds up and then the intro sequence itself with the song and the intercutting Jordan gameplay clips. It's flawless.
R0s
And to think that the Monstar's game was just the warm-up to Jordan's second Threepeat. Greatest documentary ever.
This makes me feel jealous of the 90s kids what a time to be alive back then
Michael Jordan had a celebrity appeal that no other athlete has matched since. He was like a mythological hero in real life. People all over the world who didn't know anything about basketball knew who MJ was.
Ronaldinho Gaucho 😉
Michael Jackson was like a mythological hero :D RIP to the legend and yeah Jordan is epic too
When I was a kid in the 2000's, MJ was the only Basketball player I heard of.
@@ciaranmcloughlin7165 same here, I'm not American and basketball wasn't really popular here. But everyone knew Michael Jordan
People who weren’t basketball fans were fans of Michael Jordan. Man transcended the sport in a way nobody before, and arguably after him, did.
I'm 18 and this still gets me hyped..
23 over here
HecTiurReTRo 28 years old, and neither Kobe or Lebron can reach the limit that Air Jordan has touched.
I'm 25
30 over here and still...
Fuck I’m 29... 1990 here
"I'll never go out with Madonna again"
😂😂😂😂
Are you trying to say I’m disobeying my mama?
@TEAM 5D'S but I love my mama
does she 'dress' you all the time?
@@Eternaldarkness3166 maybe I can go back to the farm
The best intro to a sports movie ever! QCDJ’s flexed that track JAMMMMM!
Fuck the new space jam, I saw this movie as a child in theatre and my eyes were glued to the screen because of the intro
5 people don't have a childhood
It's 84 as of Dec 7 2017
Lol great way to phrase it bro....
Having said that ...in one since i didnt have 1 which just added to my love of this movie even more....was kinda an swesone "escape"....if that makes any sense
Lauren It's 90 now
Lebron James fan boys
Time to introduce my kids to a classic. One bright side to this.
How did that go?
This movie was simply EPIC and MAGICAL. I watched it so many times. I almost cried watching this. Through the lens of a child the 90's produced so many great memories. I loved being born in the 90s.
Yes!!!!
Im a fan neither of mj, nor the movie, but this intro is just SO catchy!! Welcome to the space jam!!
I swear to god.....if this song isn't in the sequel....Im gonna cry
It is 💣💣💣
Man do I have some news for you
Sadly it won't, cause LeBum's music taste is as trash as he is. 🗑️
Travis Scott did a cover
@@domc9026 ....okay
As a 90’s kid this u can feel the goosebumps from the intro. Jordan was the man
This is how it's done
i was pretty disappointed that they didn't play the space jam theme song in a new legacy i was looking forward to hearing that theme song on the big screen
They didn't even played this or fly like eagle
@@GamerLegend.97 The movie is like a big advertisement for Warner Bros. They didn't have almost any heartwarming moments or at least quite moments. They couldn't even play I Believe I can fly. All we got for the soundtrack is a lot of bad rap songs or that awful remix of Pump the Jam (except the two songs of John Legend, those were good)
@@tizyman7120 bruh do you really want to put R Kelly song in kids movie 😂 after what happened
@@GamerLegend.97 I don’t give a fuck. I watched both these movies for Bugs Bunny, his best pals, and nothing else. To hell with everything that’s been happening over the last few years. Just make an epic fucking movie with hilarious fucking cartoon characters.
Literally almost every kid on the planet from the 90s started playing basketball because of mj.. what a legend
This is my favorite movie of all time
Me too i love the movie million times!
Mine Too.
Damn this intro is so epic, the intro from Space Jam 2 lacks that.
2:34 You know your movie is EPIC when it has the director of photography of Taxi Driver and Raging Bull
The 90s were the best.
Wasn't perfect, but it didn't need to be. It had better TV than the crap they put on now.
Out of anything, Swat Kats was my fave.
The original Powerpuff Girls 1998 (not the reboot) is my favorite Cartoon series.
Caine7ify no doubt about it.
@@Caine7ify bruh you just being a oldhead and don't want nothing to change 💀💀
Hands down the best opening scene to a movie. Try to change my mind 😎
Definitely!!💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
Batman mask of the phantasm change my mind😎
I love it i don't care!
Raiders of the Lost Ark, maybe?
Belly...but that's a completely different type of film 😭
Adrenaline and Testosterone maxed out to 11!!!!!
Happy 25th anniversary to this absolute masterpiece of a movie.
Can’t believe the movie 25 years old now. Hope this classic never dies out, every child deserves to see it
You know, I wasn't a 90's kid, but this was amazing. I love this movie a ton, especially the intro.
So Do I. 🥰
"Michael Jordan AND Bugs Bunny?!!??! WOOOOOAHHHH!!!!!!" - everyone kid in 1996
Best 90s movie ever!!
it is the best intro ever
Screw the critics, this intro is amazing!
Wimplo86 The intro yes, but not so much the movie overall
@@joewhitehead3 the movie is still cool
Joe Whitehead you say that as if it’s a fact. It’s your opinion !
@@joewhitehead3 You must be 8 years old
Lamo the kid erased his comments 🤣
