I actually look forward to this series, It be fun to see all your favorite characters as superhereos, This isn't the first time Warner Brothers tried something unique with the characters, If I can recall, Theres the Duck Dodgers animated series, It was really cool, The series is based on those series of episodes of the original looney toons cartoons with Daffy Duck playing sort of a Buck Rogers type of character.

No it would'nt, because that concept has already been executed in Duck Dodgers, AND it remained faifthul to the actual designs, AND it was honestly FUNNY.

Anyone thinking this show is going to rule really must be totally blind to what most of Kids' W.B cartoons are every now and then, RUBBISH, outside of Teen Titans, there is'nt much to watch on it.

I honestly don't see what the issue is, Sure it's the looney toons characters as superhereos, It's basically a what if show, What if the looney toons were superhereos, I cant wait to see this, Those people who are bitching and complaining need to stop, What WB is doing, Is not permanently changing the characters, They are just trying some new ideas, I say let them, It's not like this is how the looney toons are gonna look like forever, I'm sure they have other looney tune projects, This being one of them, I think they should just let it go and watch this new series, If they don't like it, They could just turn off the TV.

Yeah, you were probably saying that also with Baby Loony Toons, another "what if" series that sucked

Newsflash: an Eleven year old did'nt even like the original designs, complained, and his voice was heard, that person is the exact age of the TARGET AUDIENCE, the majority of which signed that petition

And if you honestly think Loony Tunes hav'nt been s*it ever since Sylvestor and Tweety Mysteries, you really are'nt qualified to know what is or is'nt a good series for these chracters, these are the same hacks who gave us Mucha Lucha.

Duck Dodgers and "Back In Action" are exceptions to the rule, but overall, there has'nt been a decent show with those characters in a long time.

Maybe they ran out of ideas and are trying something new with them, Stuff like this happens, Sometimes it works, Sometimes it doesn't.

Fifteen commas. o.O



Anyway, I'm definately not going to watch this ever.. x.X Why does everything good have to end in such horrible ways? I think the only good show I've seen end without being **** on numerous times was Invader Zim.

First of all.. Zarius.. waht is "Back in Action"? Is it on TV? Is it closed captioned? I'd like to check it out.

Second of all...
I'm not going to participate in this discussion... All I'm going to say.. I perfer the old show because that's a classic.. but i think we should give the show a chance. We can't honestly say what it will be like until we see atleast one episode. Alright? I think we need to stop arguging... some people are eager for this show, some people are opposed to it, based solely on the concept..

Like you said Zarius..

We don't know what the substance is yet.. True, WB has that repuation... but we WON"T KNOW FOR SURE until we see the show. So I think we hsould simply agree to disagree atleast until the show premires...

It's actually the theatrical Loony Tunes movie that was released in 2003 and flopped miserably, even if it was pretty good, and a vast improvment over the "new" Loony Tunes shorts they had produced

I wasn't too impressed with Back in Action. It relied mostly on stale old cliches rather than the clever humor that makes the Looney Tunes tv shows so funny. I guess they had to "dumb it down" for a theatrical audience. It was a vast improvement over Space Jam...but that's not saying much.

My favorite part was when they went into the cafeteria and Shaggy and Scooby cameod. Oh, and the bit with Speedy Gonzales talking about political correctness.

W.B are now considering CHANGING THE TITLE

Posted by AMID at 01:20 PM

Warner Bros. TV Animation continues to dig itself into a deeper and deeper hole of its own making with its LOONATICS fiasco. First, they changed the main character's name from Buzz Bunny to Ace Bunny, then there was last week's very public announcement that they're redesigning all the characters, and now they're reportedly trying to get rid of the LOONATICS name itself. A friend tells me that there's currently an in-house contest at Warner Bros. Animation inviting employees to suggest a less decrepit title for the show. I have a few choice suggestions, but unfortunately none of them are appropriate for print.

Oh hell, I must say, compared to this, I liked the first drafts better. They somehow look too cuddly to be heroes.

I think WB should come to senses again, and produce stuff that isn't necessarily innovative, but something that people actually want to watch. Something that even looks like worth being watched.

I'd still love to see Buzz bunny act like he did in that Newgrounds video when he gets all vulgar. I'd watch that.

Why can't they just start making more Freakazoid episodes?

That would be way too easy. I mean, imagine the difficulties of conquering an already existing fanbase and getting new people to watch it. Almost zero effort would have to be done...
