When it comes to pop culture, no one can never truly guess which crazes will be staying in power and which will fade out. And that%u2019s the case with Space Jam: A New Legacy, which is the long-anticipated reboot of the 1996 classic. The animated hybrid has LeBron James picking up where Michael Jordon left off, and just like its predecessor, it%u2019s a Looney Tunes film.
With almost the entire Warner Bros. catalog at Don Cheadle%u2019s AI-G Rhythm%u2019s fingertips for the new movie, the Looney Tunes are spread amongst some of their most iconic scenes. For instance, when LeBron first learns that he has to put a team together to defeat Al-G%u2019s Goon Squad, he draws up a list that includes the likes of Superman and The Matrix%u2019s Trinity.

The fans will get to experience some of the characters from A Clockwork Orange and The Flintstones to It and Iron Giant are shown as spectators for the Dom Ball showdown.
