The Looney Tunes reboot leaves Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam to work out their rage at Bugs Bunny and others in a gun-free zone — but most other weapons are permitted. Will disarming cartoons of firearms save lives? Do we want the children to believe it’s ok to express your anger with scythes?

Ban the gun is ONLY The start. It is the disguise of the slippery slope argument. David Horowitz at FrontPage Mag.com said it best with the banner headline: INSIDE EVERY PROGRESSIVE IS A TOTALITARIAN SCREAMING TO GET OUT.
The Democratic Socialist (OXYMORON) and their Party of INSANITY plus ANTI-Americanism is Only focused on YHE IDEOLOGY and the “fundamental transformation of America.” It is the ENDS justify any and all MEANS to acquire ALL the Power and Control over We, the People.
Without Friz Freleng, Chuck Jones, or Bob Clampett, there is no Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, or Yosemite Sam; only cheap knockoffs.
Scrolling down to the comments should suspend autoplay until you scroll back up.
OG, our videos don’t have autoplay, but if you mean that you don’t want to miss any of the video you have started to play while scrolling the page — I’ve got a potential solution for you. Try playing the video then scrolling down on this page.
Weird since neither one of them actually ever killed a cwazy wabbit.
But I guess bricks and molotov cocktails will be okay.
It won’t be cancelled mid-season, Steve. Why? Because Star Trek: Discovery is heading into it’s 3rd season and CBS Online is being very cagey about what its ratings actually are.
What Bill says about establishing the rules and then following them. I was saying that back when I was watching Buck Rodgers in ‘78. And I was 7yrs old at the time.
That Elmer’s using a farming implement to hunt a rabbit just tells me that the creators know diddly squat about either activity.
Animaniacs is over a quarter century old. I feel old now.
Steve Green….. at 11:01 of the podcast you voiced the most important question regarding this end of an age apocalyptic dystopia we find our selves living thru…. ” well what are you going to do?”
I listen to Dan Bongino, Dave Rubin, Ben Shapiro, Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson, Laura, Sean, the Judge, Sargon, Jordan, and a host of others including you guys…………….
THEY ALL ask the same question….. “well what are you going to do?”
I would like to make a suggestion regarding that bleeding wound….
We know from direct observation that the majority of the street creatures are children, for the most part spoiled over indulged and heavily indoctrinated by the corrupt prodigy of the Frankfort School… we all know that history… the point is that the clueless bored adrenal junkies are not the ones who interest me…….. there are cadres of focused and calculatingly ruthless agents provocateur… you can spot them in the endless video clips that are available on social media…. We also know about the interests funding them… the George Soros of the world.
What truly staggers me is that with all that insight WE DO NOTHING!
Well… To be blunt, I’m in my twilight and my affairs are in order… I’m willing to discuss with other vets about what happens if/when the social order fails.
Remember that ending bit in the Looney Tunes Barber of Seville where Elmer chases Bugs with a gun then Bugs chases Elmer with a bigger gun then Elmer has an even bigger gun then Bugs has a cannon then Elmer has a bigger cannon then Bugs has…flowers? Then blushing bride Elmer zips in wearing a wedding dress then they’re married by a dumpy little minister then it climaxes with Bugs dropping Elmer 100 feet into a wedding cake?
Yeah, “microaggressions” galore. Hell, *macroagressions* galore. Ain’t gonna see anything like *that* in the new ones. They’re gonna SUCK.
There!
You’re nice and clean!
Although
Your face
Looks like

Gone through
A ma-chine.
And what about the Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator? Are the creatures going to steal the Space Modulator?
(BTW, I do an absolutely dead-on Marvin Martian impression.)
Bill and Scott described the Supreme Court nicely.
Real new Star Trek is Axanar.
So, it is obvious…keep an eye on how many people watch this abysmal creation and you’ll know the level of radicalized leftist artists there are.
As a kid who grew up with the original, I didn’t know how lucky I was. Why, even my Saturday Morning kids shows had actors who were WWII heroes come home and working as actors…how lucky can you get? A real hero playing a hero.
The millennials have been sooo cheated, if they ever find out how much….”Anger” does not really convey what they’ll do.
When everything old is new again….. we are there and it stinks !!
Idgits is so stupid.
I saw some of the cartoons from later years, not the original Fritz Freiling years. As Bill says with explosion after explosion, the cartoons feel off because the timing is wrong, in many cases the violence is truncated (so you don’t get the payoff) or you get the payoff without the setup.
The real thing wrong with that still is that Bugs is just blowing up Fudd. In real Looney Toons, Fudd would pull out the ears only to find that they were fake and had TNT attached to them, having just enough time to realize what was coming before it exploded.
I was thinking I remembered a few gags where someone had fake ears or something for “bad guy” to pull on and either drop the anvil, light the dynamite or otherwise pop the prank. Might be we saw Bugs or someone else set them up so we knew they were fake ears.
Of course that was most of the schtick of Wile E Coyote (suuuuper genius!) that he’d set up trap that the road runner would just go through, the portable hole that worked for the bird and not for him, etc.
Bill- they will be fake ears because stupid hunter is, you know, stupid.
They really are incapable of doing anything new. Just pull out old characters and then make them less interesting than they were the first time.
Stupid hunter has no gun.
But he has a scythe. How braveheart is that?
Very Braveheart! Until another guy shows up with a gun.
Or a spear, sword, lance… pretty much any actual fighting implement. Rather than farm equipment.
Never bring a scythe to a gunfight
Yep, at least back in the early 90s, they were creative enough to come up w/ NEW characters to add to the Loony Toons pantheon. Many of whom have become near as iconic as Bugs and Daffy.
