So, I guess this is happening for some reason.

Does spacejam require a high IQ to fully grasp?
the looney toons show where bugs and daffy were roommates was unironically good
only if you know
Jordan > LeMeme
Space Jam is bad unless viewed ironically
This was surprisingly good. It didn’t feel like Looney Tunes but it was actually funny for what it was trying to be as a half hour sitcom.
Pitch: A space jam reboot but it's football and has Peyton Manning. Instead of the scene where MJ stretches out his arm to the basket, it's Peyton blocking a field goal with his giant forehead.
>Quick! We need more programming for HBO Max! What do kids like?
>Cartoons from the 40s
>Perfect
I remember when that Cartoon Network Looney Tunes show came out, there was an official quote from some WB executive who said that they were doing a new Looney Tunes show because merch sales had been slumping over the recent years and they needed to put out more Looney Tunes content to get their sales back up. This was on a press release with otherwise dry info about the premiere date, the format of the show and the creative team behind it.
Who the fuck buys looney tunes merch besides fat black women who buy tweetie bird kids backpacks for the irony
more like: quick what easily identifiable franchises with built in audiences do we have the rights to?
i watched the first episode and it was literally a shitty sitcom with no laughtrack and no music. LOONY TUNES WITH NO MUSIC
Is it pozzed
No, but Back in Action does
this looks fucking awful
>>Quick! We need more programming for TNT and TBS What do kids like?
>>Cartoons from the 40s
>>Perfect
I heard Daffy and Bugs are in a homosexual relationship in this and Elmer Fudd is gender non-binary.

>Bugs: "Okay Okay... Now hand me the lube."
Worse than Baby Loonie Toons?
Thay show was great. For a modern take I thought it was pretty funny.
Fucking kek
fuck
I was about to complain about trannyshit but then I remembered Looney Toons was always full of trannyshit
And godamn Bugs in a dress would get the dick. The cartoons were blatant about it too, everybody wanted that bunny boypussy
Stuff like this is just depressing now
Why do we all have to pretend to like niggers
I honestly wouldn't be phased at this point.
based bugs, almost dangerously based
That's a really poor drawing. This is tarnishing their legacy.
Shut up
You'd think one of media's biggest conglomerates could afford frame by frame animation instead of this tweened shit. Noooope.
Imagine needing some pencilneck PR dude to explicitly point this out for you in order to realize this is what's happening.
You already know it will be
It was pretty good but I don't like how Bugs came off as a grumpy pessimist most of the times. That works for Daffy but Bugs is a smug prick that makes light of everything, just didn't feel right.
It actually looks decent. Bugs Bunny's voice is a bit off, though.
This, what's even the point. With Friends, Rick & Morty, GOT and the rest Disney+ is going under before 2021 is over anyway
They all know big chungus from the meme
Yas Forums here, this was hyped up as the return to high budget cartooning for over a year in animation circles. Quality-wise it BTFOs anything else on television but the use of motion tweens pissed off a lot of people.
tl;dr this is a big fucking deal to toonheads.
Was it necessary to change the spelling for the reboot?
Trolling or retarded? Protip, Looney Tunes was a play on Silly Symphonies, not “Looney Toons”
Why couldn't they just KNOW THEIR ROLE
No one except the deranged and the trolls think otherwise in current year.
user, that's a cartoon for young children. Why do you care? Are you child in adult body?
there making a big chungus cartoon??
nice
They were best cartoons to ever air but I am fairly sure that now, they're going to fuck this up too, because we can't have nice things anymore.
oh good, an excuse to post this
Chuck Jones hated this movie
How many times has looney tunes been rebooted within the past decade?
Fuck yes.
Fucking hell.
Hell yes.
God please yes.
Bugs Bunny, the linchpin of the Looney Tunes, has been called everything from "classic" to "perennial" to "an American institution" to "one of our national heroes"--and "wascally wabbit," "long-eared galoot," and a lot of other things besides! But most of us just like to call him Bugs.
Now he's starring in Space Jam, Warner Bros.' first original feature film graced by Bugs in a leading role--opposite Michael Jordan, no less! Producer Ivan Reitman and director Joe Pytka head a team of filmmakers including producers Joe Medjuck and Daniel Goldberg, executive producers Ken Ross and David Falk, and screenwriters Leo Benvenuti & Steve Rudnick and Timothy Harris & Herschel Weingrod to bring this ambitious and precedent-setting project to life. Starring with Bugs and Michael Jordan are Wayne Knight, Theresa Randle and the voice of Danny DeVito.
Heading the bill in Space Jam with one of the sports world's most entertaining players is a natural opportunity for the venerable Warner Bros. character. After all, Bugs was voted the most popular in the entire short-subject field in the United States and Canada for the year 1945, and then stayed in the Number One spot for the next 16 years straight. Today, in 1996, Bugs continues to draw a crowd--in fact, a recent survey showed him to be the most popular animated character in the world!
When Bugs' classic cartoons were being made and regularly released to theaters in the 1940s and 1950s, it was his stardom in short subjects that skyrocketed his studio to prominence in the animation field.
Part of Bugs' great achievement had been to establish a strong personality who can exist for 7 minutes at a time, show us a facet of his personality, disappear for weeks, months, maybe years at a time, then reappear and still be recognizeable and entertaining. His possibilities were not exhausted by any single episode.
The trick was not to sustain seven minutes, but to live for 50 years. And once you've sustained 56 years of amazing popularity with one generation after another all over the world, it's hardly likely you're going to have much trouble sustaining a 90 minute feature.
Michael Maltese, one of Bugs' writers, remembered that in the old days, a theater's marquee had to say no more than "2 Bugs Bunny Cartoons" for people to plunk their money down--forgetting what features or other short subjects were playing, forgetting that the "2 Bugs Bunny Cartoons" would be over in 15 minutes--and, most of all, forgetting their troubles. "After a while, Bugs Bunny was so well loved by the audience that he could do no wrong," said Maltese. "They loved the rabbit, and what he stood for."
Friz Freleng, one of the leading directors of Bugs' classic shorts, once remarked, "The cocky characters, for some reason, the public seems to like. They don't like those kinds of people in real life." Mel Blanc, who first provided The Rabbit's voice, believed that "Bugs Bunny appeals to the rebel in all of us. Everybody loves a winner, and Bugs Bunny always wins."
There's a moment in A Hare Grows in Manhattan when Bugs dives into a manhole to escape the bulldog pursuing him, and between the time the dog leaps in the air and the time he reaches the manhole, Bugs has managed to resurface, grab the manhole cover, and pull it into place--turning the dog's face into something resembling a waffle. It's a simple enough gag, but the point is that there is a look of such total delight on Bugs' face as he performs the act, that he turns the whole business into something else altogether, a conflict of viewpoints rather than a physical conflict between two animals.
Bugs is Puck reborn; he enjoys the scrapes he gets into because he knows he'll win eventually. This goes a long way toward making him the irresistible character he is: he holds out the possibility that the Battle is winnable, that we can vanquish the foe and have fun doing it, that every setback can become another challenge, another excuse for high spirits.
This is possibly the critical factor of what we love about Bugs: that he will not only make us laugh but make us feel victorious and triumphant. There are heroes and there are comedians; rarely do the two meet. This made him a difficult character to write for, but it's what gave him that special spark that made him the phenomenon that he has been.
From the time he first asked Elmer Fudd "What's up, Doc?" right up to the release of Space Jam, Bugs has been both sophisticated and naive, innocent and guilty, Child of Nature and Street-Tough Smart Guy, fool and hero, one of the most rounded and all-around characters in the history of film, a multi-faceted gem.
Will he make another grand appearance Yas Forums?
?
Is Looney Toons still relevant in modern culture
My question is...can they pozz it and how will they pozz it.
