Easily one of the greatest films of all time.... Right up there with Casablanca, City Lights, Citizen Kane and Sunset Boulevard.

i could be regarded as a wee bit pretentious 'bout films. I'm writing an essay on sunrise at this very moment. But yes Space Jam is epic

When I first saw this movie, and the storm got going, I thought "OMG, I can see where this is going to go..."

@danshaggy292 space jam is definitely up there, it's just excluded by pretentious people who don't have a broad spectrum of film taste lol
