The Verdict Neck and Neck
This matchup has 14 votes. The picture may shift as more people weigh in.
These two barely belong to the same genre, which is what makes a tie interesting. Space Jam is basketball as spectacle for kids, a crossover built to move product, the game itself almost incidental. White Men Can't Jump is basketball as it's actually lived, money on the line and egos on the blacktop, two men who can genuinely play. The deadlock splits the film people saw first from the film people quote longest — merchandise on one side, dialogue on the other.
