Pitta Posted March 9, 2005 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joopes83 Posted March 9, 2005 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody Posted March 9, 2005 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
