Space Jam is a movie where Michael Jordan has to save the Looney Tunes from a life of indentured servitude at an amusement park by beating a team of tiny monsters fueled by the stolen talents of NBA superstars in a game of hoops.

It's a cult classic.

This weekend, LeBron James got people of a certain age exited with this tweet about the movie:

Unlike Kevin Durant â€" who just came out with a movie called Thunderstruck â€" LeBron has yet to make a kids movie.

This Space Jam tweet almost definitely won't amount to anything. But it would be FANTASTIC if it actually happened.

Here is our preliminary Monstars line-up, just in case:

  • Dwight Howard in the Patrick Ewing role
  • Kevin Love in the Charles Barkley role
  • Ty Lawson in the Muggsy Bogues role
  • Eddy Curry in the Shawn Bradley role
  • Carmelo Anthony in the Larry Johnson role
