Inspired by the release of Coyote vs. Acme, Kohji and Andrew explore the world of live-action animation hybrids. First, the hidden gem Hundreds of Beavers (2022) — a $150K black-and-white silent film that plays like a feature-length Looney Tunes episode meets a survival video game. Then, the "Love It" pick: Space Jam: A New Legacy (2021), where Warner Bros. casts itself as the villain while stuffing the movie with its own IP. Plus: box office game, critic or commenter, love-it-or-leave-it debates on athletes-as-actors, nostalgic cameos, and AI villains, and a tease of the next episode.
