Slowpoke Rodriguez
Space Jam
Release date: 1996-11-10
Plot: Basketball legend Michael Jordan teams up with Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tunes to win a wild basketball game against alien villains called the Monstars. The aliens stole NBA players' talents, so it's up to Jordan and the Tunes to slam, jam, and bring the chaos. It's sports meets cartoons in the most 90s crossover ever.
Name and role: Back then, it was complicated to animate all the well-known and lesser-known characters to create a big cheering crowd, so we mostly see what look like GIFs in the background: two-dimensional characters moving in a loop. Only in certain scenes, when the focus shifts to the audience, do we see real animations and well-crafted characters. Among them: Slowpoke Rodriguez
Trivia and other appearances: These characters, seen here only as cameos, have many other appearances, including: Mexicali Shmoes (1959), Mexican Boarders (1962), "The Black Widow" (2013)
