Pump Up the Jam
Speaking of how famous Pulp Fiction is, it also made it into animated films! Many of us elderly millennials will fondly remember the 1996 classic Space Jam from our childhood. But, do you remember the clear Pulp Fiction reference? Yeah, we didn’t either! Honestly, there are a lot of things in Space Jam that went over our heads as kids…
In one scene, Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam appear in matching black suits and dark sunglasses, clearly out of character for both of them. This is a clear nod to Jules and Vincent in Pulp Fiction, which had come out only two years earlier. Kids watching Space Jam wouldn’t have gotten the reference, as Pulp Fiction is not a kid-friendly flick. The adults watching, though, probably appreciated the fun nod.
