Best Quotes

Coach C: LeBron. This ain’t about everybody, this is about you. Listen, you’re the best basketball player I ever coached. You could be a once in a generation talent, if you focus on the game of basketball and not these distractions. You can’t be great without putting in work, right? You got the chance to use basketball to change everything. For your mom, for you, for everybody who you care about. You want that?

LeBron James: And if you’re going to be out here, it’s about giving everything that you got. And not whatever that was. Where’s your fundamentals?
Dom James: We having fun.
LeBron James: Everything in between these four lines is work.

LeBron James: Can’t be great without putting in work.

Kamiyah James: Have you thought about talking to your son about something other than basketball?
LeBron James: Like what?
Kamiyah James: Like how Dom built a video game. He’s twelve and he built his own game.
LeBron James: Yeah, I know. I mean, that’s great. I mean, but if I don’t push him, if I don’t stay on him, all the distractions…
Kamiyah James: He doesn’t need a coach. He needs his dad.

Al G. Rhythm: I know I’m just an algorithm, Pete. That’s precisely why I need King James. I’m stuck inside the Serververse. No one knows who I am, or what I do. But that all changes today. Because today, Warner Bros. launches the revolutionary technology that I masterminded. Today, it’s my time to shine.

LeBron James: [to Dom] Listen, son. Setbacks happen. Adversity is a part of the process, man. But if you’re passionate about something, you got to learn how to push through it. You got me?

Al G. Rhythm: Because our brand new Warner 3000 technology will scan you right into the movies. Oh, it’s like looking into a mirror, huh, LeBron? Think about it, Batman versus LeBron. LeBron of Thrones. LeBron and the Chamber of Secrets. The possibilities are endless. You’ll be the king of Warner Bros.

LeBron James: Listen, guys, I’m a ballplayer. You know, and athletes acting, that never goes well. I’m sorry, guys. This is all just, it’s just not me.

LeBron James: With all due respect, this idea is just straight-up bad. That algorithm is busted.
Al G. Rhythm: Busted?
LeBron James: It’s among the worst ideas I’ve ever heard. Top five, easily.

Warner Bros. Executive: You’re saying what I’m thinking. This is trash, this algorithm. You’re cancelled, algorithm!

Dom James: I don’t know. I think the algorithm’s pretty cool. I’ve got a question. Is it a heuristic algorithm, or some kind of matrix variant?
Malik: Dom, using the medulla oblongata.
Warner Bros. Executive: Well, I think we got a little Stevie Jobs on our hands.

LeBron James: You got amazing potential on the court, and I can help you get there.
Dom James: That’s not what I want, dad.

Al G. Rhythm: Alright. I tried being a team player, but those days are over. I’m done playing by everybody else’s rules. It is my game now.

Dom James: You make me hate basketball.
LeBron James: You don’t mean that.
Dom James: I do. Everything is always what you want. You never let me do what I want to do. You never let me just do me.
LeBron James: “Do me”?
Dom James: You think I got to “do me” when I was twelve?

LeBron James: [as Dom disappears in a virtual space] What in The Matrix hell?

Dom James: Dad, I think we’re digitized. We’re in the computer!
LeBron James: We’re in the computer?
Dom James: Dad.
LeBron James: You know I’m claustrophobic.

LeBron James: The computer’s Black.
Dom James: I can see that.

Al G. Rhythm: Wow. King James. I am a big fan. I just, I don’t know, I thought you’d be taller somehow.

Al G. Rhythm: Oh, gentlemen, this is the Warner Bros. Serververse. Just make you feel all insignificant, don’t it?
LeBron James: Are all computers like this?

LeBron James: What did you do to my son? Where’s Dom?
Al G. Rhythm: Who’s Dom? Dude, chill out. You’re going to get your son back.
LeBron James: There better not be a “but” at the end of…
Al G. Rhythm: But there’s something you’re going to do for me first.

Al G. Rhythm: You know, you really shouldn’t have rejected my ideas back there. That was a mistake. Now, I’m afraid you’re going to have to help me fulfill my destiny.

Al G. Rhythm: I am the king of this domain. I’m not your coach. Now, the only way you’re getting your son back is if you and I play a little game called basketball.
LeBron James: You want to play me in basketball?
Al G. Rhythm: Well, you didn’t want to be in the movies. You wanted to “focus on your game”. Well, guess what? Now you can focus on this game.

Al G. Rhythm: Tell you what, if you win, you and your son can skedaddle on out of here.
LeBron James: And what if I lose?
Al G. Rhythm: Yeah. Wrinkle. If you lose, well, when you lose, you’re just going to have to stay here in the Serververse with me, forever, and ever, and ever, and ever.
Pete: Oh!
Al G. Rhythm: So, you better play like you mean it.

Al G. Rhythm: Pete, send this clown to the rejects.
LeBron James: Wait!
Al G. Rhythm: [drops LeBron into Tune World] I guess he fell for it.

LeBron James: What is this? I’m shorter than Kevin Hart! No, no, no! What the…? I’m a cartoon?

Bugs Bunny: Eh, what’s up, Doc? Duck season!
LeBron James: Bugs Bunny? Woh! Bugs! I can’t believe… Bring it in, man.

Bugs Bunny: Hey, you’re that famous basketball guy. Come on, aren’t you LeBron James?
LeBron James: Bugs Bunny knows who I am?
Bugs Bunny: Of course. I may live in a hole in the ground, but we still get TNT.

Bugs Bunny: I’m a Tune, Doc. I can survive anything.
LeBron James: I’m not a Tune!

LeBron James: How long have you been alone here?
Bugs Bunny: Alone? You’re never alone when you got friends like mine, Doc. Ain’t that right, Porky?
LeBron James: That’s just a pile of pumpkins.
Bugs Bunny: Porky, did you hear what he just called you?

LeBron James: Family’s everything.
Bugs Bunny: Yep. Family.

LeBron James: Well, Bugs Bunny, I need to assemble an elite team of A-plus ballplayers to help crush this Al G. guy. And I need to do it before that game clock runs down.

Bugs Bunny: You coming, Doc? Or would you rather hang back with a cranky Martian and his space mutt?

Dom James: He just left?

LeBron James: We’re going to need the most powerful Warner Bros. characters for this team. Now, let’s see. Who to get? Got to start with Superman. Man, I could’ve used him on the Cavs. Ooh. King Kong. He’d be a beast on the boards.
Bugs Bunny: Yeah, listen, Doc. Try not to get your hopes up too much. You might not be able to get all those top guys for the team. This ain’t the Miami Heat, you know.

LeBron James: We’re going to need a strong power forward. Iron Giant. Put him on the same team as his hero, Superman.
Bugs Bunny: I’m just saying it might be good to have a backup plan.

LeBron James: So how come you stayed on Tune World?
Bugs Bunny: Tune World is my home. It’s the only place where I can be me. Where I belong.

LeBron James: Is that Harry Potter World? Awesome! Hufflepuff? I knew it!
Bugs Bunny: Nerd alert.

LeBron James: Oh, yeah! Metropolis. I can’t wait to see what I turn into here. Oh, it’s going to be somebody dope.

LeBron James: Robin? I’m freaking Robin? And why are we chasing a runaway train?

Daffy Duck: This stunt here is going to get me into the Justice League penthouse! With free parking. And now, the hero, Super Duck, who is me, will pull this brake, and save the day.

Malik: Listen, his wife keeps calling me every ten minutes. Now, I got to get back to her soon, or she going to kill me, man.
Warner Bros. Security Guard: Look, does my name badge say, LeBron Finder? LeBron Locator? No, it doesn’t.
Malik: But isn’t it your job to secure something?
Warner Bros. Security Guard: With all due respect, I went to school for six months to be accredited as a security specialist, specializing in the securial arts. And the sooner you come to terms with the fact that you lost the world’s greatest athlete, the sooner you’ll be able to move on with your life.

Al G. Rhythm: Dads don’t understand reason, Dom. They understand power. You take the power. You got to make him respect you. You make him see that you are special.

Malik: It’s almost like they were abducted, alright? Now, we got to rule out all possibilities here. Now, I’m talking about aliens, okay? The government. Uh, the New York Knicks.

Bugs Bunny: [as they hear a rumbling noise] How big are these butts?

Foghorn Leghorn: I say, I say, how in the world did he get all these spectators here?
Daffy Duck: I don’t know, but the line for the bathroom’s going to be insane.

Lil Rel Howery: Wait a minute, did I fall down the elevator shaft? Ernie, are we dead? Is this what heaven looks like?

Malik: Zap me into you.
Siri: Sorry, I didn’t understand that.
Malik: I said, zap me, into you. Zap me, human, into you, phone. Zap me.

Al G. Rhythm: I know that you all are LeBron’s biggest fans. And the King has had a great run, hasn’t he? But that’s over. That’s done now. And it is time for a new king to take the throne.
LeBron James: This dude is a hater.
Granny: Haters going to hate.

Al G. Rhythm: If King James wins, you all get to go back to your regular, boring lives. But if my team wins, you all get to stay with me in the Serververse forever. How about that, huh?

Bugs Bunny: [to Daffy] You just couldn’t keep your big beak shut.
Granny: Blabbermouth.

LeBron James: He’s using your game to trap everyone in here.
Dom James: He’s not bad. He’s just sad because he works so hard, and no one pays attention to him. He’s like me, dad.
LeBron James: No, he’s nothing like you. He’s manipulating you.

Al G. Rhythm: Yeah, you keep it up, you ain’t going to get that Father’s Day card. Those things are not guaranteed.

LeBron James: Hey, yo, Brow, I think it’s time for your eyebrows to break up with each other.
The Brow: Oh?
LeBron James: They ugly. Let it go.
The Brow: What he mean? What’s wrong with them?

Ernie Johnson: Rel, I got to tell you, this Goon Squad is loaded, top to bottom. Bugs Bunny is going to need a rabbit’s foot against this guy, Wet Fire.
Lil Rel Howery: Oh! Because he’s wet, and he’s fire.

Ernie Johnson: Is this legal?
Lil Rel Howery: Man, she got six arms. What else she supposed to do?

Bugs Bunny: We got to think out of the box.
LeBron James: There’s only one basketball. And, Bugs, don’t do nothing looney.
Bugs Bunny: Nothing looney?
LeBron James: Let’s go!

White Mamba: Who you calling “worm”?
Lola Bunny: Not you, girl.

Tweety Bird: Ooh! I got her, I got her!
[Arachnneka stomps over him]
Tweety Bird: Oh, she got me.

Bugs Bunny: We’re getting murderized!

Daffy Duck: I’m not a betting duck, but my money’s on the other team.

Daffy Duck: Let’s run a triangle offense. A square offense. A trapezoid offense? Any shape!

Lola Bunny: I’m telling you, we can still win this.
Porky Pig: How? We’re getting decimated.
Daffy Duck: We need a boost. A pick-me-up. A secret weapon.
Granny: We need a miracle.

Sylvester: I don’t know if this counts as a miracle, but I found Michael Jordan!

Daffy Duck: At guard, 6’6″, from North Carolina, Number 23, Michael Jordan.
LeBron James: Come on, man. That’s Michael B. Jordan. The actor.

Daffy Duck: We couldn’t get Michael A. Jordan, so we got Michael B. Jordan?
Elmer Fudd: How could you think he was His Airness? They look nothing alike.
Sylvester: It’s been twenty-five years. I thought he aged gracefully.

Michael B. Jordan: This is awkward, but I believe in you guys, okay? Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose. You hear me? Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose!

Daffy Duck: Well, that was a bust. Anyone else got any bright ideas?

Lola Bunny: The Tune Squad doesn’t give up at halftime. The Tune Squad doesn’t give up ever.
LeBron James: We’re down a thousand points. No team is coming back from this.
Yosemite Sam: Well, why don’t you try coaching us better, bucko!
LeBron James: I’ve been coaching y’all this whole time! Sylvester over here getting the wrong MJ. Granny’s out here having a martini at halftime. And Taz might as well be playing for the other team!

LeBron James: I’ve been trying to save my son and coach y’all at the same time. What y’all doing?
Lola Bunny: We’ve been trying.
LeBron James: Trying to do what?
Lola Bunny: Trying to be like you.
Bugs Bunny: And it’s not working.
LeBron James: Because you’re not me.

LeBron James: Bugs. Time to do what you guys do best.
Bugs Bunny: You know something? If we’re going out, we’re going out looney. Let’s go, team! All tooney, big mooney, full looney!

Tweety Bird: Uh-oh.
The Brow: Yeah! Bird versus baby bird.

Foghorn Leghorn: Gossamer, I say, he’s the quicker-picker-upper.

Al G. Rhythm: What are you doing?
Bugs Bunny: Giving new meaning to “suspended from the game”!

LeBron James: Hey, Porky, fry them.
Porky Pig: Fry them? Me, me, me?
Daffy Duck: Show them who you really are, Notorious P-I-G.

LeBron James: You sure about this, Granny?
Granny: I’m going old school on his butt.

Ernie Johnson: LeBron came back from three-one down. Can he come back from this far back?
Lil Rel Howery: Let me tell you this, I woke up today and only knew one world. Then I got sucked into my phone, and at this point, anything’s possible!

LeBron James: Let’s end this. I’m getting my son back.

LeBron James: Dom, your game is amazing, son. But I guess I would’ve known that if I would’ve listened more. Sorry I didn’t. For me, when I was a kid, the things that I went through to get where I am now, I had to be a certain way. Yeah, it helped me win games, but not so much being a dad. I’m still learning how. You’re teaching me. I want you to be yourself. Do you understand how much I love you? Do you understand how important you are to me? How very special you are? I mean, I don’t even know if I’m saying this right.
Dom James: Sounds right to me.

Dom James: I think you want people to fear you more than anything. And I’m not about that, Al G. I’m playing with my dad.
Al G. Rhythm: First of all, it’s Mr. Rhythm to you, you little traitor. Second of all, you’re not. You’re playing against your dad.

Al G. Rhythm: Pete, are you crying? There’s no crying in the Serververse, Pete!

Al G. Rhythm: You want to join these losers? You go ahead, Dom. Because it’s not your game anymore. I am the game. King Kong ain’t got nothing on me!

Al G. Rhythm: Yo, King. You’re about to lose your family, your friends, those Tunes, everything you love.
LeBron James: I don’t think so.
Bugs Bunny: Oh, it’s on.

Al G. Rhythm: I’m a monster! We about to break the internet, baby! It’s over.

Daffy Duck: That no-good, despicable son of a glitch!

Daffy Duck: So, whoever does the glitch move…
Dom James: Will get deleted.
Foghorn Leghorn: So, I say, so I guess we’re drawing straws.
Lola Bunny: We are not doing that. We’ll think of something else.
Elmer Fudd: What about the old alley-oop?

Ernie Johnson: Unbelievable! Al G. just got turned into a literal poster.
Al G. Rhythm: This is not how I wanted to go out!

Daffy Duck: Somebody hug me! Anybody?

Lola Bunny: Bugs, that’s the least looney thing you’ve ever done.
Bugs Bunny: You got that right. But taking care of the people you love is fundamental. Right, Doc?

Bugs Bunny: That’s all, folks.

Bugs Bunny: What’s up, Doc?
LeBron James: Bugs! How did you…?
Bugs Bunny: Come on. You didn’t think you’d get rid of me that easily, did you? I told you, I’m a Tune, Doc! I can survive anything!

Bugs Bunny: Hope you and Mrs. LeBron got bunk beds, because I got some friends who want to visit.
LeBron James: Hold up, hold up. Bunk beds?
Bugs Bunny: That’s right. I brought the whole gang with me!
LeBron James: What do you mean, “the whole gang”?
Bugs Bunny: You can’t get rid of us now, Doc. We’re family!
