Uuhh What's up with this, Doc?

a loonatics idea
This is a new Warner Brothers series called “Loonatics” which is set in 2772, features descendants of Bugs and his Looney Tunes pals. However they are “Endowed with individual super powers and unique abilities.”

I think this idea must have been created by loonatics.

loonatics and looney toons Bugs and Buzz
Which do you think will last?

Why the noive a' dem guys!; They don’t know us vewy well, do they? What a bunch of maroons ha ha ha What an group of ignoranimuses.

Warner brothers shoulda taken that left turn at Albuquerque and avoided this crap! I mean What’s the hassle, schmassle with handling these characters right and not selling out like this. This has failure written all over it.

It’s like they have taken all the mistakes others have made in handling longstanding properties and put them together to make this. I almost think they want to fail.

An example of good handling of the characters and concepts was the recent "Duck Dodgers" cartoons and "The Animaniacs" as well; this however is just... sad…

Once again this is another great example of a company that has a popular franchise and doesn’t know how to handle it.

The way to handle it is to release everu single cartoon on DVD IN ORDER of production, uncensored, uncut, AND with background history as to WHY the jokes are supposed to be jokes.

Only THEN will we actually have what the people want.


What are these guys thinking??
Are these toons from hades or what??
If you're trying to ruin a GREAT cartoon and replace it with total crap then they may have succeeded!! Leave Bugs Alone!!!


What are you guys talking about, the kids will love it. Super heros that kick ass are really big right now for the kids. We all should have seen it comming.


"What are you guys talking about, the kids will love it. Super heros that kick ass are really big right now for the kids. We all should have seen it comming."

next thing we know, the crew will be driving cars that morph into one huge robot...(winces at the might morphin power ranger flashbacks)


I actually know the guy who made this cartoon. Andrew Dickman. He's a good storywriter and artist. Give the show a chance.You can't keep the same old happy, 'kiddie' Bugs Bunny forever. Kids these days like more action oriented cartoons.Like I said, give it a chance.


There is plenty of "action" in the classic Looney tunes and they are not in the slightest way "kiddie". If you think that then you have seen little to none of the classic cartoons and know little about them.

Really it’s a difference between intelligent clever humor and fun or just another one of your beat'em up fighting action cartoons.

My kids, 2 and 4, love the classic stuff...they also like the Justice League. Guess which ones makes them have more fun.

They walk away from seeing the Looney tunes cartoons and are silly, very happy and have fun.

They walk away from seeing Justice League and all they want to do is be serious and run and round fighting reach other. My kids didn’t even know what hitting was all about or even the idea that you could hit someone until they watched that show.

It’s so stupid that this is all the choices kids have today….and now they want to turn the Looney tunes characters into that crap.

Yippee lets jump on that bandwagon because we can’t figure out anything else to do with them that might actually be clever. Wait!, Anime is "in" so lets do that!!! Look how smart we are.

Half the planet has been watching the classic cartoons for decades and this is the best they can do?

Duck Dodgers is excellent and I can’t imagine why they think that this idea of the "Loonatics" is a smart move.

I am a cartoonist and I don’t mean any offend anyone, but I look at those re-imagined drawings of the classic characters and they looks ridiculous. Not just because the art is so typical and bandwagon, but because this is such a silly and pathetic concept to do with these characters.

I can see it going down as just one more boring action show along with the hundreds of others out there today.

I can’t imagine how they were going for originality and ended up with something so cookie cutter. I am sure originaltiy was not even considered.

If they were just new characters not associated with the established Looney tunes universe the show might do ok, but it would again just be one more dull action show doing the same old thing the same old way.

I'm a huge comic book super hero fan...I have been since the age of 10 when I witnessed my first comic. I have thousands of comics at my house and still buy them today every month. I love the action and superheroes and the message of good overcoming evil.

But it's not much about that anymore. Everything is focused on the action and fighting and is meaningless. Thank goodness my kids are bored with that sort of thing.

This just appears to be more of the same.

Just another kiddie anime action cartoon.

I will however give it a chance to make my final honest judgment.


...and also just an FYI ...Andrew Dickman didnt not make this cartoon. He didnt even come up with the designs for the characters.

He is a good artist though.


What the hell is this loonatic doing in bug's world? GET OU OF HERE!!!
we dont want no replacement for bugs OR the others, whoever made this crap up, is an asswhole!!! Why the hell would you want to replace the looneys by some freaky looking loonatics, they look like REAL lunatics!!! Dont ever erase bugs EVER!


Well, if they wanna kill it, might as well kill it with style, eh? They've updated the look of 'em to make them look less 'sinister'. As said by Karl Olson of one forum that was discussing this..

"I'll take the demonic-look over looking like furry fetish fanart. "


again, the biggest nonsense ever.
what are you all making this fight for? WB have the right to do what they want! I love WB, and I love the Loonatics! I already told the ''saveourloonytoons'' kid that IF the Loonatics will become famous, ofcourse the Loony Toons won't disapear, you dummy. so what the Loonatics are created?!If nobody likes it, well, that's WB their mistake, they just thought it would be fun. Do you really think the cartoons of Bugs Bunny will disapear from tv and there will be Buzz Bunny (is it now Aced Bunny?that's ugly, I like Buzz) instead?
no, they are too populair to do that and WB knows that very well. so stop this idiotic nonsense about ''eek, they are killing the Loony Toons'' ''leave Bugs alone'', because that is just dumb.
I love the Loony Toons very much (more Pepe Le Pew please) but I like also the Loonatics (again thank you TLGMedia).
stop this childish anger, still think: it is just a cartoon :S

feel free to flame me loonatics


Or course the looney toons won’t ever go away, but crap like this trivializes the brand.

It’s not that WB is killing the characters, it’s that we are all disappointed this is the best they are willing to do. They insult the brand with this bandwagon attempt.

We just want fun smart stuff we can enjoy, not this intellectually insulting re-heated cheese from an already droningly out dated concept.

How many anime rip-offs do we need for the kiddies today? (another genre that is being run into the ground)

Also, its not “non-sense” to speak out and have an opinion on something, even if you're wrong or you dont agree. I know in today’s world that is hard to remember but you'll be glad you did.


This is a stupid idea, Changing the oridganal Looney Toons! That makes me mad.


I AGREEEEEEEEE ! DON'T MESS WITH THE CLASSIC TOONS !


i think that changeing the looney toons was an awsome idea!! have u thought of any other cartoons that you could convert?
ET


I don't mind them showing this new series. It hasn't even come out yet. Don't be too quick to judge. I watch the classics and all, but they sorta bore me now. I'm growing up and things change. Nothing can stay the same for long. Anime's on top of my tv show list and whether you like it or not, children will watch this show. Everybody has their own style and taste. If you hurt someone because you don't believe in their beliefs, what would they say? Think about it. Don't agree with me? Then fuck off.
(P.S. I'm 12. Deal with it!)


I don realli knoe it that much but it seems ok i think both are aiight....i like both of emmm
i wonder how they came up with putting them as decendants of watever her name was something bunny


It might not be that bad after all some people like duck dogers.Like me its not that funny but still prety funny.


i think that hey did a good job and now i love LooNATICS and it is so my favorite show now lol


Just like they did with WCW. Time-Warner brings in Vince Russo, and look what happens. The company ended up in WWE's ownership in the end. Looks like WB is losing it.


I love Lonnatics.I wish i was in that show.


Are U kidding? I saw Loonatics and thot AWESOME! That is so cool!


Are U kidding? I saw Loonatics and thot AWESOME! That is so cool! I'ts SWEET! by the way its Ace Now.


I HATE YOU! YOU GUYS ARE IDIOTIC AND HOW DARE YOU CHANGE THE GOOD OLD LONEYS. NOW THEY LOOK LIKE HOOKERS IN CRACK! I HATE YOU SO MUCH! I SPIT ON YOU ALL *PATUIE* NEVER SHOW THOSE THINGS ON TELEVISION. IF YOU CHANGE THEM, ILL GO INSANE!!!!!!!! DONT YOU DARE!!!!


I dont tink dey shood do dis, mon. i love dem little crittas. i live by da beach and i watch deez little guys every mornin. lotta mercy, mon.


I'm actually no longer sure for whom that is.. I'm impressed of the new style/flow, but let's keep in mind that it is still use(ed) to be for little kids.. kids who are younger than we were as we watched this regulary because TV becomes even more the centere if entertaiment..So, when the 'Loonatics' look like this (even though i like it) than either the story is the minor matter or the story is rude... I dont think sth should be changed, these charcters can just 'live' next to the real one- and not instead.


Ok, WTF?! why is it eveyone is starting to mess with the classics of the past! this is just one example, others are the new Batman series, he's no longer batman, he's 'The Batman' and the new Ninja Turtles, its messed up! Why can't people leave well enough alone? I hope this show dies swiftly, besides, who would watch that bull shit? Question, who the hell is the female rabbit? I may be behind the times but i don't remember there being a regular female rabbit character, i guess they have to put that in there because they can't think of anything better to do, this show proves that they can't think in general.


What the hell were they thinking ! the regular looney toons were awsom why did they change it!


alright all you out there...you need to realize that not the whole world agrees with you. part of the world likes this new idea, another part doesnt, and the rest dont know or dont give a shit. Warner bros. will do what they damn well please, they have made more than enough money, off of you pathetic people hypnotized by the cathode ray tube. They are just attacking a different group of people now, get over it. Back when we were kids, things were different, people and things are getting more opened up. Back then you could never curse on tv, but now as it seems you can. STOP living in the past, the world is changing, shows are changing, kids are changing. Sit a kid in front of the tv, have him watch the looney tunes, then this new show, loonatics, and 2 to 1 they pick loonatics, kids like the new straighter silhoetted cartoons, with better quality and action and such. GET OVER IT, STOP WHINING ABOUT IT!!!!!! YOU DONT LIKE IT DRAW YOUR OWN DAMN CARTOON AND GROSS OVER A MILLION BUCKS WITH IT...WAIT THAT WONT HAPPEN BECAUSE YOUR ALL WORKING CLASS LOSERS JUST LIKE ME AND YOU'LL NEVER HAVE THE CREATIVITY, OR THE DEVOTION TO DO SUCH A THING, IF YOU DO, SEND ME A HUNDRED DOLLARS AND ILL BELIEVE YOU AND SAY I WAS WRONG......STOP WATCHING CARTOONS AND GO WATCH SOME P*** AND M********E.


Dang Skinny I you mean to tell me that the WHOLE world doesn’t think like I do! Thanks for the heads up man.

Do you think I care if not one person on this planet cares about my opinion?

If our opinions aren’t of value and you say we should shut up what makes your opinion valid?

Sheesh man wake up.

Setting cartoons aside here because its not what you said about cartoons that makes me laugh....let me try and get this... according to what you wrote things of the past are no longer good because things change and we should care about all the new stuff that’s changed and not care about the past?

So all things change for the good then right?

Thanks genius.


i love the loonatics!!!!!
son exelentes, y me gusta ese cambio y esa diferencia DRASTICA que tienes a comparacion de los originales TONNS


I think both is hard because loony toons is funny and loonatics have lots of action


They looked fine the way they were before this. Why change the looney toons when so many aready like them the way they are. I'm 13 years of and I like them the way they are they look ugly like that.


I think its really cool that Loonatics (or Looneytics) came out I enjoy it every Saturday on Kids WB. Finally someone did something new to Bugs Bunny and the gang.


The loonatics are really awsome but I think it would be cool if you made a movie about the looney toons meeting the loonatics or turning into them!


Am i the only one in the world that's ever seen "A New Bunny"?

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/223809


oh common the show is cool, not exactly the awsome awsomenesss but is cool, I really love the old cartoons but I really like this super heroes look of them, evenif the desings have some of animeish on it.


dis sucks looney toons are upposed 2 be funny not about guys hu get super powers u guys r total complete idiots


Looney Toons - Loonatics
Classic 65 Mustang - retarded 73 Mustang II
They'll shoot themselves in the foot with this and we'll all sit back and have a good laugh at their expense, literally (how much $$ did they invest in that crap anyway?) while we're enjoying the REAL Looney Toons on dvd.


Put Bugs,Tazz,Lola,Wile, and the rest of the gang back in the loony tunes not a couple of LOONATICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I think the new guys are cool I also think the old ones are cool too I like the new looks they make them more futuristic looking like their supposed to. The older ones look like the older ones get a grip!
