Am I old? I’m old, aren’t I? This reaction I had to THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP was also the old-person reaction to old Looney Tunes shows, wasn’t it?
No, seriously. Wasn’t it?
So don’t blame THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP, maybe. Blame the culture. Looney Tunes is merely trying to deal with it.
It…. works better than it has any right to.
But with a title like that, “I was expecting an Earth-shattering Kaboom”.
I saw more butt jokes in that trailer than I did in a couple of decades watching the cartoons.
I am old. Also, I miss Mel Blanc. And Jim Henson. Yes, I know the two aren’t directly related, but the world is a colder place without them.
Yeah, I have to say, it doesn’t look completely awful. Honestly a lot closer to the tone of the original cartoons than more recent stuff like Tiny Toon Adventures
