And then there were the CLASSICS from Warner Brothers Looney Tunes etc. Bugs, Daffy, Road Runner and all, capable of entertaining the kids with the action while the dialog kept the interest of the adults. From 1930 to their demise in 1969, we can pull out the DVDs and laugh like kids again.
I'd love to teach a high school physics class using the impossibilities of Wile E Coyote's eternal purchases from Acme (where oh where was Consumers Reports?) Then there was the utterly superlative and sublime Bugs & Elmer Opera Classics; "What's Opera, Doc?" & "The Rabbit of Seville"! Comparison of these to 99.9 ...% of what came after is depressing!
He sued them, though! Coyote v. Acme
Merrie Melodies/Looney Tunes were national treasures as far as I’m concerned. Can’t think of too many things that 5 year olds and 95 year olds both dig so much. Maybe the Stooges.
