History NightmareFuel / SpaceJam

* The sudden ArtShift to Swackhammer fantasizing (or maybe Jordan imagining?) about UsefulNotes/MichaelJordan as his slave in the dungeons of Moron Mountain, and the implications of this (never seeing his family again, living the rest of his life in misery, etc.)
** On the one hand, if Jordan lost the bet, he'd be separated from his family; [[SadisticChoice on the other]], if he ''didn't'' up the ante, then it would've been the Tunes who'd be enslaved if worst came to worst--and either way, Jordan's friends wouldn't have their stolen talent returned. Thank God for ToonPhysics and the Monstars not having the actual practice to go with that talent...

* The scene where the Looney Tunes first meet the Nerdlucks. At first, it plays into a funny moment where the Tunes laugh mockingly at the Nerdlucks when they announce their intentions to enslave them. However, when the leader of the Nerdlucks, Pound, responds to Yosemite Sam drawing his guns on him by blasting Sam to a crisp with his own sidearm, the Tunes suddenly change their [[{{Pun}} tune]] and see them as a threat.

* The Mon-Stars [[UncannyValley molding Jordan into a ball]].

*** Wile E. Coyote (Both legs and one arm broken)

*** Elmer Fudd (mentally traumatized to the point of being restrained in a strait jacket)
*** Speedy Gonzales (Various facial injuries requiring the use of a human-sized ice pack)
*** Foghorn Leghorn (reduced to a ROASTED CHICKEN with an IV)

*** Tweety Bird (Loses all ability to breathe independently, requiring the use of an iron lung)
*** Pepe Le Pew (One arm, one leg, and tail broken)
*** Road Runner (Spinal cord is completely shattered) [[note]]This would have been equal parts disheartening and/or inspiring in the original script which had Road Runner scoring the winning basket-depending on how one interprets the idea of having to ''keep playing while seriously injured.''[[/note]]
*** Beaky Buzzard is presumably wearing a full body cast (excluding his feet), however the combination of grayish coloring combined with the camera angle from which he's presented makes it instead look like [[LuckyBastard he merely had his feathers (and pupils) shaved off.]]-particularly if you're watching a low-resolution video such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sgNHV1kk5s this one.]]
* The scene where the Looney Tunes first meet the Nerdlucks. At first, it plays into a funny moment where the Tunes laugh mockingly at the Nerdlucks when they announce their intentions to enslave them. However, when the leader of the Nerdlucks, Pound, responds to Yosemite Same drawing his guns on him by blasting Sam to a crisp with his own sidearm, the Tunes suddenly change their [[{{Pun}} tune]] and see them as a threat.

* Also, the Nerdlucks' transformation into the Mon-Stars is [[BodyHorror pretty intense]]. Just as the Tunes begin to think they got the upperhand against the Nerdlucks, to see them transform into giants and loose their leverage against them.

* The Mon-Stars ''destroying'' the Tunes in the second half of the game. When Jordan calls for a time out, a lot of the Tunes are in bad condition, ranging from having a defibrillator used on Taz to Tweety resting in what looks like an iron lung. Logically, this would scar them for life, so seeing them unscarred at the end of the movie is rather disturbing.
** Even more disturbing is the fact that it contrasts to whenever this sort of thing would happen in the cartoons, which would generally be PlayedForLaughs, so in those cases, the character later appearing unscarred would be expected.
** Probably some of the worst are what happens to Wile E. Coyote, Tweety, Elmer Fudd, and Foghorn Leghorn. Wile E. is completely casted up and holding up a sign reading “extreme pain”- clearly this is worse than any time he’s ever gone after the Road Runner- Tweety is in an [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_lung iron lung]], Elmer is lying on the floor having a breakdown in a straight jacket mumbling "The Monstars" over and over again, and poor Foghorn has literally been turned into a roast turkey. Even Granny (who was a cheerleader and not even playing) ends up in a wheelchair and a neck brace while she still shakes her pom-poms. Music/FryderykChopin's "Funeral March" playing during this scene doesn't help either.

* Imagine being regarded as among the best in your profession, then suddenly and without reason you lose even the most basic skills of that profession. In front of a live audience on national TV. And you have no idea what happened to you.
