Source: Warner Bros. July 30, 2010 Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote, two of the most popular Looney Tunes characters of all time, are returning to the big screen in three all-new animated 3D shorts. The studio will attach the cartoon shorts to three of its upcoming family features—all three features to be released this year in 3D. The first short will be seen with Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore on July 30th; the second with Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, on September 24th; and the third with Yogi Bear, on December 17th. The announcement was made today by Dan Fellman, Warner Bros. Pictures President of Domestic Distribution. In the new cartoon shorts, each three minutes in length, Wile E. Coyote is as determined as ever to catch the elusive Road Runner, who continues to leave his hapless nemesis in the dust with a taunting "beep-beep." However, bringing the classic characters into the 21st century, the resourceful Wile E. will now be employing an arsenal of state-of-the-art ACME gadgets to snag his quarry—with all of the action in stereographic 3D. In making the announcement, Fellman said, "Audiences have always delighted in Wile E. Coyote's dogged pursuit of the Road Runner, with hilarious, albeit predictable, results. We are thrilled to be presenting these characters for the first time in 3D, which will heighten the excitement and humor of the chase, not to mention the impact—at least for Wile E. We're sure these three new adventures will entertain a new generation of fans while reminding us all why these two characters have been beloved for so long." The shorts will act as a lead-up to a new 26-episode half-hour series called "The Looney Tunes Show," which will air on Cartoon Network this fall featuring Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck as roommates with the other classic Looney Tunes cartoon characters as their neighbors.     |

I wouldn't get too excited about it. It won't be anything like the original cartoons, and it will probably suck. |

I've seen teaser clips of this, some of it looked terrible and some of it looked surprisingly... shall I say great?
The colors were way too bold and the motions still look unatural, but much to my surprise the character designs were cartoony! Yes, cartoony CG! I was exicted by that because I knew there's more possibilities to CGI than the dull and lifeless animation we typically get from studios and the clip I saw proved it. It still needs a lot of work but it's a start.
Now if these studios would learn from this and just stop copying each other we might enter into a new age of creative animation.

Every freaking cartoon should be pulled of tv and replaced with reruns of Looney Tunes. Kids for 50+ years were raised on Bugs, Daffey, Taz, Sylvester, Tweety, Roadrunner, Wiley, Fog Horn Leg Horn and Speedy Gonzalez. Taking them off tv (which pretty much they have as I NEVER see them on) is like taking the colors out of the flag, or patching the crack in the liberty bell.........its just unAmerican

See, it was Looney Tunes that made our kids wanna smoke, drink, have unprotected sex, become teen parents, do drugs, and become unresponsible little shits living off of Goverment Cheese. Now we have the Wonder-Pets, Veggie Tales, and a watered-down Spongebob Squarepants that will make sure our children grow up properly and keep away any chance of the parent making a right choice in raising thier kids. |

And we have Chowder, Flapjack, and Adventure Time. Don't make it seem like cartoons are completely PC these days. |

Just bring back Roger Rabbit so Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny will have a resurgance. I know they've pretty much said the sequel will happen, but right now, Bugs and Mickey are near dead characters and havent been relevant since 1996.
