Here's the article about the new show. Makes me wanna puke.

"The new series will have the same classic wit and wisdom, but we have to do it more in line with what kids are talking about today."

" The plots are action-oriented, filled with chases and fights. Each character possesses a special crime-fighting power."

:baby:

That's horrible. What has the world come to?

If things keep going like this, I will totally be cool with being like an old person yelling at kids about the good old days of real cartoons like Dexter's Laboratory and Family Guy.

Well, when you think about it, is it possible to live up to the original? Obviously not, They will never be able to re-create a character that everyone knows and loves. My opinion on the new character is that the show and everything else will fail because they're morons for trying to do this.

Looks horrible, but I'll have to watch an episode to see how it is. I loved watching the old WB cartoons on Nick growing up. Sad to see this happening.

That kinda reminds of the eps where Bugs confronts the mob (rep for anyone who remembers the name of the little mob boss)...or Daffy as Duck Twacy.

They 'Teen Titaned' it. :shakehead

As if the sharp ears and hands weren't bad enough, they gave him Teen Titan Robin eyes.

Thank you Teen Titans, for staining the classic image of American cartoons with your terrible design.

I'm very sad by this news. I love Bugs Bunny. He doesn't need to change his image. He can totally be up-to-date with new pranks and such...

This news made my foreheard crinkle in disappointment

Agreed with all the statements so far. Absolutely horrible design. Can't anybody make new characters anymore. Ruin those. Don't go back and dig out people's childhood memories because it's easier than being creative.

Why do people do this? They should just make an entirely new show with new characters. I hate when they recreated old characters.

The "reimagined" Bugs Bunny is going to be renamed "Buzz" and star in a new series called "Loonatics."

oh my... buzz. oh my.

Sander Schwartz needs to be murdered or at least brutally beat for thinking that this was a good idea.

Who the f*** really thinks that the wit and humor is going to be the same? Thats a load of s***

GameMaster

02-17-2005, 04:24 PM

What we're doing is taking Bugs Bunny, a classic and changing him for the kids – making him fresh, cool and hip.

They have yet to accomplish that goal. :unsure:

Lol. This is one of the most hilariously horrible things I have ever seen.

Loony Toons was my favorite show as a kid...and I STILL watch it when its on. There are so many classics...."Kill the Wabbit! Kill the Wabbit! Wiff my magic golden swing shot!"
hehe...good times.

This is just dumb. :mad:

But GM, I actually like Teen Titans. :D

The last good cartoon to appear on the WB was Animaniacs in my opinion.

This really seems like a practical joke to me. The "What's up doc" voice had me cracking up because it was so terrible. "Spaz" for "Taz"? Jesus....

I'm a bit of a Titan fan also. but on-topic, this is just low. Buzz's voice and "what's updoc?" makes him sound like a hellion reject. it's so stupid it's funny.

Buzz sounds like a really irritated Keanu Reeves after battling with a sore throat.

This is blasphemy... I mean it's what the Simpsons were making fun of when they brought in Poochie.. I don't mind re-makes; but this is a disgusting bit of crap... oh well.. life goes on...

By the way.. the guy with Bugs Bunny was Mugsy... unless you mean Rocky... that was when Bugs threw Rocky in the oven and said to the cop "Now, would I turn on the gas and light this match if my pal Rocky were in the oven".. and the cop says "Oh, you might rabbit, you might"...

LOL, I love how Warner Bros. calls the current Loonatics 'early drawings' now. Talk about lame cover-up.

I'm sorry, but was Thomas around between the years of 1930 to 1969? Nope. Therefore, he can never be a true fan of the Looney Tunes series.

All the credit and glory needs to be directed toward the website designer. His site collected more signatures than pathetic Thomas did.

All Thomas did was collect 20 signatures on paper from his school, big deal?

In conclusion: Go home Thomas and find something to rob glory from that is from your era. You will never be a true Looney Tunes fan and if I have any say in this, I would force you to watch Loonatics for the rest of your life with only brief breaks to use the bathroom and eat.

As long as they continue to make the old loony tunes, than can do all these crazy sci fi crap that they want. I don't have to watch it if I don't want.

Just to bring up the past...

Has anybody watched this yet?

I watched it this morning and I felt slightly more dirty after watching than normal. Cheap and dirty, like a French harlotte.

If it hadn't been Looney Toons it would have been an average show, nothing different from everyone.

PS They don't have a Porky Pig or Elmer Fudd
