    "Daffy Duck in Hollywood" discussion

    It had been many years since I had really enjoyed this film, but then in the last few months I've been watching it again and again on the third Golden Collection, and it really is enjoyable. Don't know what made me enjoy it less for a period (overexposure? so many cartoons on the DVDs that I...

    Why does it seem Foghorn Leghorn isn't more popular?

    Maybe it's just me, but it seems like Foghorn Leghorn isn't more popular. I know popularity can be subjective, but when it comes to marketing, it seems like he's under-used. Over the years, he was only given one VHS release (not counting public domain video collections) and one DVD release...

    How did the early looney tunes/merrie melodies survive nitrate destruction/decay/junking?

    I was surprised to recently read about the MGM fire, because I thought I'd read on Jerry Beck's Cartoon Research a long time ago that the MGM "dubbed versions" were made from the original negatives as opposed to prints (like with the Warner Bros. "dubbed versions").

    Are Merrie Melodies/Looney Tunes Filmography from the 30's and 40's overall not popular anymore?

    I don't watch Looney Tunes on Cartoon Network often, but in the past year, whenever I do, they seem to only show Bugs, Daffy, Road Runner, and toa certain extent Foghorn Leghorn cartoons. I watched a Looney Tunes marathon this past New Years and it seems they only showed cartoons with those...

    Two Things I Never Noticed in "Potty Emergency"...

    I watched this episode again recent. For years, I thought the ending line - "that's disgusting! He didn't eve wash his hands." - was just a funny line, that the guy thought it was disgusting that he didn't wash his hands. But then I read on TV Tropes that Wackko shaked the other guys hand. And...

    Cartoon Series That Stayed Consistently Good

    Rocky and Bullwinkle was consistently good, though there are some storylines I don't care too much for, such as the few without Boris or Natasha, the first half of Upsydasium (it gets a lot better once it gets to the nighttime scenes, the earlier chapters seem kinda slow) and I feel like both...

    The "What'cha Been Playin'?" Thread

    In the past couple of months, I've been playing various games on Playstation 2, particularly ones with classic games. I've played Namco Museum (Ms. Pac-Man), Midway Arcade Collection (Paper Boy, 720, Marble Madness, and Splax), Mega Man Anniversary Collection (just the first Mega Man), Genesis...

    The philosophy of cartoon comedy

    There was a brief period in the 1960s when Spy vs. Spy had a third party involved. For a brief time, the comic was expanded as "Spy vs. Spy vs. Spy", with a woman spy dressed in grey who always won (in contrast to the usual black vs. white where the winner was often unpredictable) against them...

    Family Guy - "Simpsons Guy" - Talkback [9/28]

    This episode was worth the wait, though I thought it was supposed to be last seasons finale. Considering the courtroom scene had so many characters from both shows who are somewhat similar together, it's a wonder they had Fred Flintstone be the judge, instead of the judges from both shows...

    Family Guy - "He's Bla-ack!" - Talkback [5/11]

    Did Cleveland Jr. or Roberta get any dialogue in this episode? It seems they weren't in much of it (I'm not too surprised about Roberta), and Rallo got a good bit of screen time at the beginning only to disappear for the rest of the episode. And it's kinda funny, Chris broke the vase after...

    Family Guy - "Mom's the Word" - Talkback [3/9]

    I didn't get to see the beginning of this. The first scene I saw was the scene with Peter's Facebook post, which was the last scene before the first commercial break, so I thought the episode was going to be about Peter starting a Facebook account. By coincidence, the other day I had...

    Family Guy - "Christmas Guy" - Talkback [12/15]

    Why would I repress the best Christmas episode from my memories? So there's that, this, and the first Christmas episode (where Stewie wants plutonium for Christmas). What else was there?

    Family Guy - "Christmas Guy" - Talkback [12/15]

    I was surprised by the ending. I don't know if I need to mark things with a spoiler here (since some have mentioned it without the "spoiler" thing), but Funny when Stewie responded to Lois's mention of his first Christmas "again", Especially since his first birthday came before the shows...

    Family Guy - "A Fistful of Meg" - Talkback [11/10]

    One thing I must say is that Brian without his fur is one of the most disgusting moments from the show.
