- Monstars
The Monstars are a group of fictional aliens from the movie
Space Jam . They first appear on Earth to capture theLooney Tunes , who their boss, Swackhammer, plans to enslave for his Moron Mountain amusement park. The Tunes convince the aliens to let them defend themselves, and challenge the short, slow aliens to a basketball game. However, the aliens sneak into a basketball game and use their unique physiology to steal the talent of five topNBA players. They then absorb the talent when called to practice by the Tunes, becoming enormous creatures with tremendous physical ability and basketball skill. To contend with them, the Tunes bring inMichael Jordan , who is retired but decides to help them out after the Monstars show up and bully the Tunes around a bit. During the big game, the Monstars are merciless, crushing the Tunes despite their old school gags. The Tunes come back briefly with the help of some water that Bugs Bunny passes off as "Secret Stuff", but are hit back even harder. The Tunes then resort to their most comical tactics, and call in the help ofBill Murray (whom Swackhammer mistakes for Dan Aykroyd). After the Monstars are defeated, they realize that their boss has been pushing them around the whole time, and rebel, sending him to the moon. They return the stolen talent, and ask if they can join the Looney Tunes.The Monstars also have names, that they don't use in the movie for unknown reasons, but are at the end of the credits with the voices that came with each individual Monstars.
