Here’s my (very dumb) pitch for Mamma Mia 3, it’s Harry’s wedding there is just one small very very tiny issue no one can work out who Harry’s marrying and at this point, they just feel weird asking. So much like the first film, three men are running around a greek island while Sophie, Sky, Cher, Tanya, Rosie, Bill, and Sam try to work out their connection to the plot, I mean their relationship with Harry. So let us meet the potential Grooms: 

First up we have Elijah Thatcher played by Taron Egerton, at first, he seems the most likely to be the groom despite the age gap since he seems very close and connected to the wedding and is really stressed out about the wedding. However, we later find out the reason he is so stressed about this wedding is that he is the stressed-out wedding planner, and let’s just say Harry’s Groom is a bit of a bridezilla

Then we have Peter Beckett played by Hugh Laurie an American lawyer who is very close to Harry, he also knows a lot about the other dads and Sophie, and he also has the habit of flirting with Harry, in truth while he and Harry did have a fling back in the day, they are now simply best friends and he’s the best man. The reason he flirts with Harry is that he enjoys getting a reaction out of Harry’s actual partner. 

This actual partner is Nathaniel Hawthorn played by Hugh Grant a music professor at Cornell, they push each other buttons but at the end of the day, they still love each other. At the start of the film, they think he is the wedding planner since he seemed a bit too into the table setting. But he actually just enjoys getting a rise out of Elijah, who at this point is considering a career change.  Hijinks, misunderstandings, and ABBA take place before the reveal but in the end, the reveal is simple with Nathanial asking if Sophie would walk down the aisle with him, since he’s kinda either step-dad 1 or dad 4 plus he knows it will mean the world to Harry, she agrees they hug and she welcomes her new dad to the family.

We end the film with their wedding it’s big, it’s fun, and it goes perfectly much to the joy of Elijah’s mental health, Peter gets a killer best man speech that ends in him and Nathaniel hugging it out. Just as the night is coming to an end, all seems to be going well Bill finds his boat has been stolen by none other than newlyweds. Harry yells something about being spontaneous, while Nathaniel yells about going on the honeymoon of their dreams. As they sail off into the sunset.

We close with Elijah and Bill sharing a drink and rethinking the life choices that got them here. We then find out Cher knew who the groom was the whole time and just found the whole thing very funny hence why she told no one.

Interesting. I was wondering when he'd turn up. A human/child hybrid, maybe? Another that was meant to fail? Now, will he be good or bad? I presume bad [maybe even the overall big bad] because he's meant to be as smart as owl in the books, so if he's older [and was kidnapped/created before the others] then he could have been some weird mentor.

They could even have him carry over into Bambi and become Thumper. Just an idea.

Is it just me or does she use the exact same voice she used for Numbuh 5 in Codename Kids Next Door? Love the take on Elmyra though - going back to animal photographer [What Elmer was originally] is a nice touch.

Cree Summer reprises her role as Elmyra in Season 2 of Tiny Toons Looniversity.

Space Jam 2 Headcanons

Focusing on the filming here. [Also did you realise it's 25 minutes in until Bugs first makes an appearance!?]

For the scene when Lebron slams into a painted-on tunnel the real LeBron slammed into a sheet of glass to create the desired effect. A team took a picture of the result and drew him in toon form after that.

When Bugs and Lebron were first acting the barber scene, Bugs did actually put him in a chair and manoeuvre the chair. [Obviously he didn't make it break Lebron's spine though.] He did throw a hot towel on him [it was cold though, Lebron had to act like it was hot.]and he did give him a legitimate trim. [LeBron was thrilled and will go about telling anyone he has had his hair cut by Bugs Bunny.]

The scene were the Tunes Squads picture [in Marvin's spaceship] were malfunctioning was actually ad-libbed. Of course Bugs and Lebron weren't actually in Marvin's spaceship, it was a set, but Marvin generously loaned them the controls of his old spaceship. In hindsight Bugs should have asked what the issue was. It malfunctioned and kept duplicating information. Unplugging it was the only way to stop it. [What you can't see is an off-screen Marvin holding up a sign that says 'Unplug it, you damn rabbit!']. Lebron [who was on the set] also did notice, but when they were animating it the crew decided it was funnier if he was oblivious.

The train scene with the Tunes was filmed in one take. Lebron added in after. The only other thing missing was the orphanage [just in case...].

First of all - the Mad Max scene? I didn't realise Nasty Canasta was there as well as Wile.E + Roadrunner! Also that Segway Wile.E was riding afterwards was totally nicked from the set.

There was a debate about the Austin Powers scene with Elmer and Sylvester. They were going to show Bugs trying to recruit the two. Sylvester would have been only to happy to leave, Elmer would have needed a bit more persuading. It was dropped for time reasons.

Rick and Morty were adlibbed. They had a protective screen above the scene of Marvin's spaceship which they threw Taz onto.

The Matrix scene with Granny and Speedy was cleverly planned. The human actor was a professional stunt man, and Granny really did kick him through a few walls. And of course Speedy really did outrun a speeding bullet. [He had to do it a few times actually cos he kept going SO fast they couldn't film it.]

After the above scene Lebron was scripted to make another disparaging remark about Granny and Speedy, but found himself unable to, so he just ended up saying Hi to them instead. What can he say? It's Granny!

'Sam, shoot the ball!' Perfectly improvised as was the following training montage. Again they used the set of Marvin's ship with Lebron actually on set. So his 'Where did she get the ramp?' [In regards to Granny's epic stunt] was genuine. The only rule was 'Don't touch Lebron.' [Warner Bros 'Trust us - we can't afford the lawsuit!']

You can see that Sylvesters lips don't move when he says [Come back here you!] after Tweety threw the yarn. His voice actor dubbed it in after. [Another reason why the tunes have voice actors]

Foghorn hitting Elmer was planned and the hunter had time to brace himself. [Needed to do Toon stunts.]

As was the door to Marvin's spaceship falling over and hitting Marvin himself on the head.

When they were back in Toon World, the toons were back to acting the whole 'Square splitting open' scene. They acted like they thought they would in such a situation. So yes, Wile.E and Roadrunner hugged, Foghorn picked up Granny [She's designed to be old and Foggy simply didn't want to risk it.] Speedy saved Tweety [who was genuinely paralysed.] There were a few more like Gossamer picking up Elmer [A similar situation as with Tweet, he froze up.] and Sylvester had a brief moment of looking for his son before he remembered he was acting. [Cut both because it didn't make sense and it was a bit disturbing.]

The bit when the rest of the WarnerBros properties ran to watch the game was achieved by a mix of CGI'ing the CGI characters in afterwards and getting some of the paint-and-ink toons to really run in. It was chaos to film, took no less than 100 shots to get all the characters they wanted and overwhelmed several of the LT's.

The Goon Squad were CGI when playing in the game, so all the Toons were acting against thin air. So when Sylvester was trapped in the spiders web, he was actually suspending himself in mid air, with the web added in later.

The scene where Cronus messes with Lebron by putting a pirate hat on him ext was subbed by Daffy Duck. So Daffy was putting the pirate hat on him. Cronus was CGI, so wasn't actually there, but they needed someone to mess around with Lebron in real time. A few of the toons were hesitant because it's Lebron James, but Daffy? He didn't care.

Yes, Michael B Jordan did get to meet the Looney Tunes and his bit was also improvised. He was wondering about Warner Bros in connection to something unrelated and Sylvester found him and came up with the gag. So Lebron's, Daffy and Elmer's reaction was genuine.

Wile.E had to be careful when setting up the train gag. It couldn't hit Tweety or any other Tunes. Again he had a toon stand in for the CGI player, which in this case was Roady. This was because Roady was the only Toon who could be relied upon to outrun a speeding train. [Ok, maybe Speedy could have as well, but Roady was easier to see.]

It might seen odd that within the movie Lebron asked Porky to rap, and believe me he had his doubts, but the producers had already cleared it. Porky wrote the rap himself, mainly so he knew he'd be able to say it.

The Wile.E cloned bit was a mistake [it was just meant to be the balls going through the net, not the coyote] but [of course!] it went wrong and it was decided it was such a Wile.E/Toon thing that it was to good not to keep in.

When it was Granny's turn to go against Cronus she couldn't resist using the walker for effect. In this bit Cronus was also portrayed by Speedy [It wasn't Daffy because he had a bit of dialogue at the beginning of Granny's scene.]Speedy [and Roadrunner] were the main two who could play Cronus's game-play style convincingly. Also, what with Speedy being incredibly short, she could leap over him with hardly any effort. When the animators saw how high Granny could jump, they animated Cronus around it. Also when Granny 'aged-up' Cronus, Speedy had no issue acting as if he was 132.

After that when they were celebrating all the hugging and stuff was improvised based on how they felt in the moment. Hey, if you've got to hug someone you've got to hug them! [or elbow-bump them in Bugs and Elmer's case.]

Don Cheadle just stood in the middle of the court while he was transforming. They had to act terrified. [or at least vaguely unnerved.]

The entire slow motion thing was filmed using toon powers. Daffy subbed in as Dom and Wile.E as Lebron. Dom played himself, but of course had nothing to throw as that was added in after.

I think I already headcannoned about Bugs's deleting step, so I'll leave that alone for now.

The after credits were fun to film. Yes, the tunes visited LeBrons house. [That's where the pool scene is from.]Sylvester and Tweety did try out skateboarding [the scene shown is shot just before Sly crashed] Tax and Gossamer managed to ride the bikes for a bit, but ended up over-balancing and falling off. They couldn't resist having a golfing pick as a call-back to the first film. Yes, Yosemite and Elmer tried Yoga. Elmer was better at it than Yosemite. Sam couldn't get his mind in the zone enough.

So for me, some of the fics I'm most proud off:

Space Jam 2 - Across The Serververse: 40,000+ [Novel]

Della's Diary [Ducktales 2017] - 70,000+ [!] How the hell did I do that!?

A Journey Through Time [Snow White - Abandoned] 30,000+

Family Bonding [Encanto] - just over 7,000

How Hero's For Hire Got Set Up [Ultimate Spider Man] - Nearly 50,000 [!]

Of Brothers And Worries [TMNT] - Just over 7,000

Rise Of The TMNT - Insomnia - Nearly 15,000

These are 7 of the 100 fics I've written. By my maths that's approximately 250,000 words. Now are my chapters about 3,000 words? No, they're more like 800-1,500, approx.

But jeez, I'm proud of them. Even the very first one I started with - Donatello's Death - that was 111 words because I didn't have the courage to submit anything longer to the scary fanfiction site - I'm proud off. There's some that I've abandoned, some that I've lost the inspiration for [not the same as abandoned, I've lost the pleasure in the source material] and there's some I was just trying out. [Eck, hem - Knives Out, The Final Layer.]

And I'll keep writing probably until I die - or hopefully get professionally published! - and who knows? One day I might write a million words. 😁

When reading fanfic keep in mind that for professional literature: 

Short story: under 7,500

Novelette: between 7,500 and 17,500

Novella: between 17,500 and 40,000

Novel: over 40,000

Fics over 40k are literally a novel written and shared for free.  If you have written a 40k+ fic, you have literally written a novel.

Space Jam 2

I'm honestly tempted to re-watch Space Jam 2, sorely to write more headcanons about the filming. Only thing that's putting me off is that I won't be able to show screenshots explaining what I mean, so I'll be saying stuff like:

About midway through the film, Daffy falls over. Fun fact - that wasn't planned, he's just naturally that clumsy.

Tweety really didn't know how he ended up in these situations. All he'd wanted to do was go to Downtown Toontown to do some shopping. Now he was being eyed up as some hungry cats dinner.

"Ooh, dere's a bad ol' puddy cat watchin' me." Tweety said, mainly out of habit.

The sales-girl looked concerned. "Do you want me to get security?" She indicated the tough-looking rat in the corner, who was smoking a cigarette.

Tweety smiled and shook his head. "I'ww be awwight." Heading out, it was no surprise to the young canary to be grabbed by a cat. Not in the mood to be jerked about, Tweety bit the cats thumb hard enough to draw ink and started to fly off while the cat was jumping about like he was on fire. The bird did a double-take when he recognised the young cat. "Juniow?"

Sylvester's son- the spitting image of his father - glared and sucked his thumb. "Who wants to know?" His eyes went wide when he recognised the bird. "Tweety? Oh, Tweety!" He grabbed the bird and hugged him tightly, while Tweety gasped for air. "I'm lost! And so hungry." The young cat said, pitifully.

Tweety rolled his eyes. "Yes, weww. You'we not eating me. What awe you even doing hewe? Whewe's youw fathew?" He looked around, aware that this might be a trick, but the lack of father-cat and the despairing look in Junior's eyes made him think this might not be the case.

With that the younger cat launched into his story. It seemed he'd been dragged against his will to a clothes shop to get a suit for the premier of 'Goldimouse And The Three Cats.' While there he and Sylvester Sr had had an argument, which had escalated quickly and Junior decided to make his father suffer by running away. He was intending to go back home, but instead of saying 'Uptown Toontown' to the bus driver he'd said 'Downtown Toontown' and here he was.

He'd been to afraid of the 'mean-looking' bus driver to ask for a ride back [and he didn't have the money anyway.] so figured he'd hang out Downtown until either his father turned up or he found some money. One of the two. Three hours later and he was hungry. Cue the situation...

"I see." Tweety said. "Weww, in that case we better get you home. Fowwow me." So led to the slightly strange sight of a bird leading a cat by the hand onto a bus and basically guarding him on the journey home. Tweety distracted Junior by playing I-Spy with him as well as quizzing him on all the times he'd outwitting his father. That was quite a long game that kept them entertained until the bus drove into Uptown Toontown's station.

Tweety caught sight of a familiar-looking set of pussycats outside the window and grinned. "Eh...Junior. I tawt I saw some puddycats...." At the bus station was a anxious-looking Sylvester who was pacing up and down, while his wife stood next to him, foot tapping and steam gently coming out her ears.

Junior lit up. "Father! Mother!" He didn't even wait for the bus to stop properly, teleporting himself outside and into their arms.

Tweety flew over and hovered next to the family. Eventually he was noticed by Sly, who glared at him. "What are you doing here, pipsqueak?"

"Father, Tweety saved me." Junior said, indignantly.

Both Sly and Sylvia looked alarmed, and Tweety quickly explained what had happened.

"Well." Sylvia said, warmly. "Thank you! You must come to dinner one night."

Tweety must have looked cautious, because Sylvia quickly added. "As a guest, not dinner."

The bird nodded. "Yes...that would be...nice." He smiled. Sylvia smiled back and took Junior by the hand leading him away.

Sly looked fondly after them, then turned back to Tweety. "Hey...listhen. Thanksth. For looking after him. Eh..." The older cat stuck his hand out.

Tweety laughed at the formality of it, but shook his hand anyway.

How does teleportation work for the toons off-camera? Are there limits to it?

Hi! Sorry for taking forever to answer this - I've had a really bad bout of writers block recently. I'm even struggling to finish my fanfictions. Maybe one shots are the way forward.

Anyway, your ask:

Yes, there are limitations to it...depending where you are. So in Toontown as well as the Disney and Warner Bro's buildings, no limits. A toon can move in a flash from one end of the town to another [even to a country if they really wanted], and it's frequent in Toontown to see people just...appear in front of you.

Quite a lot of conflicts happen because of that though - toons appearing in front of one another and causing collisions - so there's police patrolling through the Towns to break fights up.

I should point out they don't teleport all the time though. It requires a lot of concentration/effort on behalf of the toon [A bit like running for us] so if they can get a bus or drive, so toons do that. Also if you're a Toon who has wings or an invention that is basically flying, then they tend to use those.

In the buildings, the Toons need to be a bit more aware - there's more Humans walking around and they tend to get startled by Toons suddenly appearing in front of them, so if the toons are going to teleport they tend to either do it in Toon-heavy places like the lunch-hall, or to get to a filming session quickly are where Humans tend to expect teleporting a bit more. [The directors are especially resigned to the fact at least one of the toons will appear in front of them , wearing a directors outfit and yelling 'Action!' as a joke.]

Away from Toontown and the buildings, Teleportation is a bit frowned-upon because you'll startle people. The toons understand this to a degree, most of them don't want to harm people so the idea of popping up in front of a old Human lady and giving her a heart attack tends to put them off teleporting, but there are some toons who resent it.

This is mitigated by the fact that most toons DON'T wonder around outside of Warner Bros/Disney because of the risk of either getting kidnapped [this applies especially to the more popular toons, sure they could easily teleport away, but that requires effort and really in this case, prevention is bettor than the cure.] or into some sort of situation and expected to use their toons powers to help out. [Toon powers tend to take concentration or at least a relatively calm mind. The more stressed out a toon is, the more chance their is of something going wrong.]

Aside from the social side though, they can only really go about ten football fields away from wherever they are, they can't teleport from England to Ireland for instance. [Or from Florida to Georgia.] This is why if the toons go abroad outside of toontown, they have to use Human transportation. [Unless they're lucky enough to have super-speed like Speedy, Roadrunner or The Flash, or wings.] And no, Bugs can't burrow through non-Toon soil. It's to tough.
