Field of Dreams, imo, has to be one of the favorites to win this whole tournament. Space Jam was a cool little semi-cartoon movie, but it's in the ring with Muhammad Ali in this one.

I think it's too bad that Space Jam had such a tough go in round one, to go against a juggernaut.  While not a great movie, I think that Space Jam is very unique and one of the few films that uses a player's popularity as the crux of the film.

I may be in the minority....I was not a fan of Space Jam....it was ok but nothing I would care to see again.

[Brian Fein]

I haven't seen Space Jam in about 15 years, but I remember it being incredibly cheesy.

Field Of Dreams.  Hands down.

The only thing SpaceJam was good for: 

It gave way to my alternate lyrics for the Fly song by R.  Kelly which are probably closer to the real R. Kelly than the original song.

I believe I can shit.
I like to watch the steam come off of it.
I take a dump every night and day
whether I'm at home or far away.

I believe I can crap
I like to listen to the water slap
Against the sides of the toilet bowl
As the shit shoots out of my asshole, oh...

I believe I can shit...
