Otherwise, the toons are essentially the toons, even if the Animaniacs are inexplicably confined to background attendees at the big game. Fans of the 2011 Looney Tunes episodic know that Lola (voiced there by Kristen Wiig) can be both non-sexualized and ghoulishly funny. She’s “strong” and “skilled,” but she’s also not allowed to cut loose. Moreover, this version of Lola is painfully boring and barely allowed to crack a joke. “Fixing” her implies that bad male behavior was Lola’s fault (see also: Walt Disney “fixing” Belle in the live-action Beauty and the Beast remake). Yes, she’s less sexualized in this film, but the issue with the first Space Jam was not Lola but rather how all of the other male characters treated her (in terms of viewing her entirely as a sex object). The animated co-stars provide the expected slapstick comedy.
