THUNDER NOISE

for the uninformed space jam is so important to me because well duh im the #1 space jammer 😏😏 but also because its what introduced me to both the looney tunes and live action/animation hybrids, and I've been obsessed with the concept ever since.

when I was a kid, I spent a lot of time daydreaming about the looney tunes needing my help with something stupid just like in space jam, and "rescuing" me from school... which sounds silly but it got me through a lot of very long days.

It also got me through times where I would have to sit on bleachers and watch school games, or events in the gym, which I found to be very overwhelming and sometimes distressing. I would spend that time imagining I was watching the looney tunes play instead. It was a comforting distraction from the real world.

Even outside of the fact that i would just imagine the looney tunes wherever I went when I needed comfort, space jam was also a big influence on my art journey. Once I gained access to the internet, I wanted to know if there were other movies like space jam. Thats when I learned about who framed roger rabbit and looney tunes back in action, amongst other media too of course. I became VERY invested in the concept of toons living amongst people, I'd say its probably the biggest inspiration on my art lol

Anyway I meant to post this right after I got out of the theater but I'm still processing that we really drove 2 hours out of town and somehow made it perfectly on time for the previews, sat down and actually got to watch space jam in a theater. I made it my goal to see space jam naturally rereleased in theaters after missing the rerelease of the little mermaid and being very distraught about it, I was NOT gonna let it happen again. Thanks to my tía, rin 🥰 who came with me it was so much better with her there im so happy we got to experience it together 😚🎉

SIDEnote but I was really struggling with eating and was very upset because I was losing a lot of weight the day we went but after watching the movie i got back home and my appetite came back and i cant stop eating now oh space jam the savior that you are 😍😍 it also cures my migraines 🥰
