Ehh, What's Up, Doc?

This is my first time writing a blog post, so I am going to dive right in with something ridiculous. How many of you remember the masterpiece of cinema entertainment, Space Jam?! You probably wouldn't consider it to be a movie with much depth or involved philosophy. However, Warner Bros has a public archive of Space Jams 1996 website and you would be surprised at the amount of detail they have paid to their beloved creations.

Take Bugs Bunny, for example. Warner Bros bio, for our carrot loving friend, actually provided me with some personal insight on how I aspire to deal with life's challenges. Conflict, as you all know, is one of life's many constants.
