And will be neatly avoided by the *real* Looney-fan demographic, just

(But then, the lack of a certain OTHER obvious Looney character will be
used to defend it's not a "Space Jam" followup, honestly, really it

There's no guarantee it will be a CG character. It could just as well be
live action with some overpaid, undertalented, former SNL comic playing the
