I've been hearing alot of bad things about Looney Tunes lately. I heard that their entire classic catalog has been removed by Max, and the building that took place is demolished.
I'm not entirely upset because, yeah the world is pretty messed up nowadays but it's still absolutely disappointing and disrespectful. Bugs Bunny and the rest of the gang have been timeless ever since they were first drawn, and even then Bugs Bunny is the true main mascot of the company at least in the animation field.
This was all because of the two recent movies, Coyote vs Acme and The Day The Earth Blew Up. The entire company refused to release them for about a few years, I mean come on, IF THE FILM IS FINISHED JUST RELEASE IT ALREADY, hard-work does pay y' know? Well maybe now it doesn't anymore.
Now there were times back when the golden age of Looney Tunes was at it's peak, they have had scrapped or unfinished shorts but at least it was just standard and not ambitious or had a ton of passion, which really pisses me off about what happened to Coyote vs Acme. I'm not a fan of the Coyote and Roadrunner shorts but I bet alot of people including fans of the characters were upset about this and was expecting alot of new, fun and modern twists to the characters.
What really frustrates me is that Looney Tunes was more than just a cartoon, it changed animation and cinema as a whole alongside Disney, and other famous films during the last hundreds of years.
Max literally destroyed these classics because it wasn't enough for adult and family programming and deemed it as children's content not having enough of an audience.
Looney Tunes wasn't aimed for children to begin with. It was aimed more at an adult audience which is true because there are times when a character puts up a weapon to the other guy's mouth. Also I hate the saying "Pop Culture kids won't get" because it was obviously made back in the 30s-60s of course they won't get it until they gain further knowledge to the old stuff which is rare and not quite everyone's taste. I certainly like pop culture references a little because i know what the creators like or have interest in to put it in their work. Like as for example, the crew must've loved radio shows like The Jack Benny Program for adding a few lines for laughs.
This alongside Sesame Street were taken off. I believe that the government nowadays is taking away the most important stuff in the entire world. I know I'm not that big on Sesame Street but I do believe it's one of the best shows younger audiences should watch because it has one of the most creative, moral, and strong lessons and characters I seen in all of TV history.
They literally think that AI, Cocomelon, Digital blandness and money is going to be a solution to the planet Earth. Earth isn't always blues and greens, it's something about the atmosphere, a little bit of serious but also a bit of fun too. I've been hearing alot of horrifying stuff about Chinese schools and how they're desperate for children to be a perfectionist, which is utterly hard to be because I know I'm not perfect, everyone has flaws and that's what makes us normal.
If I was taking control and changing the planet, I would make an issue to just ban everything AI related and bring back originality and creativity. People don't understand that the Earth isn't just a sphere, it was created by the best being, God itself. And you know that they were doing it for creativity and craft to make us alive and healthy. It's sad that now it's the opposite and everything is beginning to be fake news.
If we want to respect Looney Tunes and bring it back it's going to be more hard to manage because not everything can last forever, but for a iconic and fantastic franchise, we hope to see future generations reacting to the older stuff. Heck I'm here listening to 40s music, watching old films myself, so why doesn't anyone want to experience something in the past? Everyone should do it at least once, maybe it'll be life-changing or inspiring to them. I know alot people love the newer stuff, I kinda like it too, but it doesn't have to be this forced and immediately limited.
I also think other characters like Mickey Mouse, Tom and Jerry, and Spongebob deserve more respect than what's happened to them nowadays.
We should have a future where we get another 2D Disney animated movie, an actual good Tom and Jerry movie, and not push Spongebob too much, but also keep it's audience fair and entertained.
Now to end it off, here is one of my favorite quotes to one of the best characters of all time.
