#brushoff

I've mentioned before that the new Chip & Dale: Rescue Rangers film is a mixed bag for me. It would be a dream come true of a half-continuation to Roger Rabbit, except Rescue Rangers is not the franchise I would have chosen to have it to take place in, especially if it ruins how long Chip and Dale have known each other (which was WAY before the 80's), and I would not have chosen the Disney chipmunks everyone already knows as the comeback-making protagonists saving toons from being bootlegged. If anything, a cynical cartoon cat hating the "cats are mean" trope should have been the protagonist. Also, it ignores that Peter Pan is featured in other Disney media after the 1953 film, such as Return to Neverland, House of Mouse, Kingdom Hearts and Jake and the Neverland Pirates.

As much as I love Space Jam because of its quirkiness, I still can't get by how we're supposed to view the Looney Tunes' location as the center of the Earth as a canon location. I love the idea of them co-exisitng as a cartoon staff and crew, but it'd make more sense in a different dimension, and yet, I still enjoy the film as it's part of my childhood. The solution? Brush it off as a dream or hallucination someone has, and say the real Looney Tunes vs. Moron Mountain story did not involve MJ's help and the Tunes were able to keep themselves from becoming slaves without a basketball game, and the Nerdlucks, tired of Swackhammer's abuse, stayed with them. If the Tunes play sports, it'd be namely for fun.

A New Legacy's events would also take place as a dream or hallucination, because in spite of how I accept the idea of the Tunes existing in a Tron-type universe, I didn't like how the sequel's events played out.

For my first dream/hallucination brush-off, I have Sing 2 and its short For Gunter's Eyes Only.

In my crossover-verse, the events of Sing 2 would all be brushed off as a dream sequence Buster or any of the characters from the first film has. The troupe went on world tour without the need to visit Redshore and they never met any of the city's inhabitants except for Nooshy, Porsha visiting without her dad (who's not in jail because he never met the troupe), Alfonso, and Clay Calloway.

And because For Gunter's Eyes Only has Johnny and Gunter in Redshore after or in-between the events of the sequel, it would also be a dream.

Everyone loves crossover-fan-universes where every cartoon character co-exists and film their events, teleporting the recorded events to the real world where we humans can view them (theory came form Garfield Gets Real). Inherently, we have to view everything as canon and want to tie every canon together (that's what everyone in the ???'s Adventures league tried to do). However, there are some things we feel uncomfortable having the exact same events, even if some moments of said things are enjoyable, so the best solution would be brushing them off as dreams and/or hallucinations.
