Any Looney Tunes fans here?
 

I'm a big fan of the classic stuff circa 1950-1960...Bugs, Daffy, Road Runner, Sylvester...

Oh, yeah...Especially when I was a kid, B4 they started choppin' 'em up...An' makin' 'em "Politically Correct".

You might say I'm a fan.

Me too!!!

With my wife and I,its a House Divided:
Shes a Foghorn Leghorn fan,and Im Road Runner/Coyote all the way.
Jimmy

Massive fan, when asked what my favorite movies are I always list "Duck Rabbit Duck" in the top 5

Looney Toons, Warner Brothers, Chuck Jones all the classic cell toons. Also, Heckle and Jeckle, Tom & Jerry, Atom Ant, Pink Panther, Underdog, Clutch Cargo (one damn weird show, if you've never seen it... I mean WEIRD!) ummm... I'm forgetting something. Oh yeah! Johnny Quest.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of coarse Bugs, but I have a special place in my heart for the Coyote.

My daughter Hanna and I would watch them when she was just a kid, whatever the Coyote did, we would say "This one will work!" or words to that effect. Unless there was a fishing reel involved, cuz those never work.

When he failed we'd both say, "poor Coyote". She still laughs about that.

If I was Wile E. Coyote,Id be suing Acme,big time.

I love the Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner ones myself... much more so than a lot of the other ones. Much funnier than the stuff today. :D

I love Daffy from this era. He's completely wacky and just short of completely insane. Doesn't get much better than him!

What the.......? No love for Marvin?

Hey!
The orange monster with tennis shoes gets no luv either?

Rome

IIRC his name is Monster :) Doesn't he have a funky pair of tennis shoes in one episode?

HEHEHE Broonsbane!
I think Bugs called him Gossamer at one time or another & yes he wore tennis shoes. He was a funny character! :thmbsp:

Rome

A multi-monster. I remember that name now that you said it. He was a good one for sure :)

I really love the early crazy Daffy Duck. I like about all the Tex Avery stuff too. Have a tattoo of Droopy on my arm with a sign say'n "I'm so happy"

I remember Bugs vamping in one cartoon, pretending to be a manicurist doing the Monster's nails, & having this ultra-affected accent...Priceless...Oh, yeah, Tex Avery's Screwy Squirrel was always a fave of mine as a kid, too...."Leave us not get excited, chum !", & then keelhauling the poor stupid dog w/an anvil...

I like the WWII era ones...

I am! :thmbsp:

My thoughts exactly. On another note, I do own a few volumes of the Golden Collection, and it isnt butchered. Its exactly as I remember it.

endlessly quotable dialog

rarely a day goes by without a quote...

"Oh brother... there goes me bread and butter!"
"Ooh, I'm Dyin'..."
"Hit da road!"
"I shoulda toined left at Albekoikee!"
"that's what HE thinks!"
"fortunately I keep ma feathers numbered, for just such an occasion"
"Monsters make such interesting people"
"Wile E Coyote...Super Genius"
"What a gulla-bull...what a nin-cow-poop"
"Of course you know this means war!"
"I do this to him throughout the picture"

I could go on and on...

Looney Tunes always get plenty of airtime around here...even when the grandkids aren't visiting. I love how they instantly "get" old cartoons...my granddaughter's a big Popeye fan, and one of my grandsons has been a devoted Tom & Jerry fan since he was about 3. The beauty of Tom & Jerry is virtually no dialogue...just plot & action. He's the same grandson who instantly "got" Laurel & Hardy as well...I thought he was gonna pee his pants laughing so hard at "The Music Box". (Stan & Ollie attempt to deliver that piano up that lonnnnng flight of stairs.) Gonna see what's on Boomerang when I get home from work.....

What's up Doc?
That screwy wabbit!

I love the Looney Tunes. Every Saturday morning was spent watching those cartoons when I was a kid. My favorite has always been Foghorn Leghorn. I have vols 1-5 of The Golden Collection and there's not much Foghorn Leghorn in those. Volume 6 is now available (which I will no doubt purchase) so I hope they've included more Foghorn in that one. As long as they continue releasing these Looney Tunes collections I will keep buying them. Great stuff!

"Grab a fencepost, hold it tight...Whomp your pardner with all your might...Hit him low and hit him high, stick your finger in his eye..."

Hey guys/girls!
Anyone remember the super polite chipmunks, squirrels, or whatever they were?

I think one of their famous words were: "Indubedtly!"
Spelling in question...

Rome

You are pulling my heart string with Foghorn, Drybasement!
My dad loved him & would walk around saying, "I say, I say, Boy! :yes: :D

Klassic,
Rome

I absolutely love them all too! I just heard that they have discontinued the Golden Collection. Needless to say I have been completing my collection ASAP.

Golden Collection
 

Yeah, I read that myself. Volume 6 will be the last one. What a shame.

character wise, even though not many appearances is the gremlin that tries to sabbotage the bomber..."you have to hit it just right" as he tries to smack a bomb.

Foghorn's always been a big one with me too, and there's a lot of him on YouTube so I have something to watch on a Saturday morning.
"That boy's as sharp as a sack of wet mice"

So much so that I dedicated many years to collecting the single and boxsets of Laserdiscs also a few VHS of the Looney Tunes to get the
UNCENSORED/UNCUT/POLITICALLY INCORRECT :yikes:true tunes I watched as a kid along with Tom & Jerry, the Tex Avery Collection etc...

I have heard the Golden Collection DVD's have edited and missing Tunes due to political correctness not sure if thats true as I only go for the Laserdisc versions. The slight grain in the Laserdisc versions make it feel that much more like 1965 again when I first watched them as a kid.

My favorites have to be Bugs, Foghorn Leghorn, Yosemite Sam.
For many years now when I arise on Saturday mornings on go the Laserdiscs and have my own Looney Tunes marathon without any editing or commercials.:thmbsp:

My all time favourite: A Tale of two Kitties" parody of Abbott and Costello.

I say boy, do you reallly think a Looneyious Toonious fan would be huntin wabbit inside a thread like this if he wasn't looking to blow up the Earth? I mean, you wouldn't see a puddy tat if you didn't... You're about as sharp as a bowling ball if you have to ask..
