Why not make some new characters instead of desecrating Bugs’ grave and painting the corpse black? Oh for fuck’s sake. They’re shitting on the characters we all grew up with. Thank God Tex and Chuck aren’t alive to see this.

“Loonateens will have all the wit of the classic Looney Tunes cartoons from the golden age,

Instead of ‘What’s Up Doc’, we’ll be pushing ‘Whatever, dude’ as Lola Bunny’s catchphrase…”"

That’s not wit, that’s conformity.

I just bought the last of the Futurama series (awesome writing, decent animation) and I can’t figure out how animated cartoons got to where they are in such a short time.

Gawd, what a travesty.

The thing is, Warner Bros. already had a property that captured the original Warner Bros. spirit, and it was the Animaniacs.

The episode where Yakko, Wakko and Dot had to deal with Franklin Pumpfeather (voiced by Ben Stein), who talked endlessly until he left and then they missed him, is a minor classic as far as I’m concerned.

This was funny, original characters, based loosely on the Warner Bros. zaniness, but yet completely original. So of course they had to can it and come up with this shite.

Figures.

I’ve been out of the US cartoon world for a while (subtitled anime has saved me), so when someone mentioned _Baby Looney Toons_, I thought they were referring to _Tiny Toons_, or just joking. Nope, it really is that bad, isn’t it?

Aside: one _Tazmania_ episode is called _Taz Babies_, and it’s a brillant rip on executives and yes-men. I doubt anyone who decided that _Baby Looney Toons_ was a good idea has ever seen it.

But to the purpose. Bugs and company are long dead. They keep trying to reanimate (sorry!) their bodies, but there is no soul. Package up all of the cartoons, uncut, and use them as a history lesson, but for crying out loud, let them rest in peace!

That said, even though it looks awful, a few interesting bits/episodes may come out of it. Talent, like a weed, has a way of poking its way out of a dung heap.

“You know how to get next quarter’s bottom line up, don’t you? Just put your hands around Bugs’ neck and squeeze.”

I think WB is cutting costs by generating electricity off the spinning corpses of Chuck Jones, Mel Blanc, Tex Avery, Friz Freling, and all the rest of the great Warner animators. WB executives are pissing on my childhood.
