idle thought #236

just saw another ad, and I had to comment.  I've only ever heard the original Space Jam music, and definitely never seen the original movie.  but the ad's making it seem like the new movie is making a similar mistake to Ready Player One and I had to say something.  Are they...using Iron Giant as a weapon?  You know, the robot-of-war whose entire movie arc was "I don't want to be a weapon" and whose movie ended with the wholesome "maybe you don't have to be" message?  (I can't take credit for noticing the "Iron Giant in RPO is a problem" issue, I actually saw that on a youtube video, but once you're looking for it it's super obvious, and now I'm concerned it's happening there, too.)
