James was quoted as saying, “I’ve always loved Space Jam. It was one of my favorite movies growing up. If I have the opportunity, it will be great.”
Similar to the original “Space Jam,” the Goon Squad characters are inspired by real NBA and WNBA players, including Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis, Diana Taurasi, and Nneka Ogwumike.
The movie presides over a frictional relationship between father and son. The son who wants to develop video games but the father is more interested in him playing his sport. The son is captured in a tyrannical AI and a credulous father on a mission to save his son has to help the Looney Tunes members win a basketball tournament.

As of now it is not confirmed on which sites besides HBO Max will stream Space Jams 2 for the rest of the world.
The critics have given mostly negative reviews for Warner Bros and their use of similar plots:
“The movie throws so many gags at the screen that several jokes actually stick. But the purposeful sensory overload mostly yields head-spinning stupefaction, leaving a viewer feeling like Wile E. Coyote after hitting a mesa wall.” writes Glenn Kenny from the New York Times.
Whether the plot is overworked or not the buzz created around this film shows that it is one that audience will not miss.
