Pitta Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Talk about extreme makeovers. Take a look at what's happening to Daffy and Bugs. http://img183.exs.cx/img183/2194/toons0qs.jpg Hoping to breathe new life into its animated Looney Tunes franchise and prop up the WB television network's slumping Kids' WB line-up, Time Warner Inc.'s Warner Bros. is planning to launch a new cartoon series this fall based on "re-imagined" versions of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tasmanian Devil, Lola Bunny, Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote. Warner Bros. has created angular, slightly menacing-looking versions of the classic Looney Tunes characters for its new series, dubbed "Loonatics" and set in the year 2772. Names for the new characters haven't been finalized, but they are likely to be derived from the originals: Buzz Bunny, for example. I reckon they look crazy
JinVA Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 I saw this over the weekend. Kind of scary looking I think. The times they are a changin'.
USMCBillsFan Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 The classic looney toons are the greatest cartoons ever in my opinion. I still like to watch Bugs Bunny....

Dan Gross Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Totally agree -- Bugs Bunny Road Runner Show was the best, problem I have is finding them on any station. 267589[/snapback] ...and then finding them un-edited, because, you know, those cartoons are what made me the racist, violent, cross-dressing scum I am today...

joopes83 Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Thanks for the link! I saw a program on TV a few weeks ago about the makeover, and wanted to show my boy (he's 13). We tried finding some pictures on the internet for him, but were unsuccessful.
nobody Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 First - you can barely see that they are different characters now. Second - they look bad enough as figures but will look even worse as animation.
Dan Gross Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 I thought that came from the time you spent with Michael Jackson at the Neverland Ranch??? 267642[/snapback] Sorry, but the terms of the settlement preclude me from commenting.
Dan Gross Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 I thought alcohol did that to you? 267655[/snapback] Actually, it might have been the year I spent having a friend who was a Dolphin fan...
Dan Gross Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 I've never met a more racist person than you, Dan. 267653[/snapback] Then why did you run against me in the Grand Wizard elections?
TheMadCap Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 So why not just make EVERYTHING look like pokemon???
R. Rich Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Then why did you run against me in the Grand Wizard elections? 267736[/snapback] Don't be mad at me because you didn't win.
Zamboni Man Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Bugs Bunny and (I guess) Wile Coyote almost look like the same character.
RVJ Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 This may be before alot you guys were born but...Harveytoons was the best. http://www.classicmedia.tv/harvey/toons/index.html
