Do kids today even know the classic Warner Brothers animation? They probably know the Disney classics (Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, Dumbo) a lot better.
Warner has done a poor job keeping them alive. Which is tragic because not only are they great they’re such a great way to introduce kids to a wider world, with all the opera, literature, cinema and music references. I just that when I watch Mozart in the Jungle half the music I recognize I associate with a rabbit and the other half with a crazy rock keyboardist (Keith Emerson).
We started showing him every single Looney-Tunes ( we have them all on discs and first had them on tapes ), when he was a toddler and he still loves them. He also LOVES old movies: The Three Stooges, the Marx Brothers, Laurel & Hardy, and the regular movies that we've shown him.
