In North America, they weren't even involved in the marketing or distribution, they sold it to another company for pennies
on the dollar.

I don't really get prioritizing shyt like the Baldwins instead of Bugs Bunny but it is what it is.
1. Baldwin shot and killed someone
2. The movie he was on when he did it, just got a theatrical release date

That's not entirely true as they've literally still been cranking out Looney Tunes TV shows for years.

The characters you named are the exception and not the norm as we've seen other legacy characters and shows not hit with the younger generations like they used to. Power Rangers and Sesame Street are perfect examples of it.
With marketing.

You'd probably have to google to find looney tunes series in the last 10 years and I bet nearly none of them have had proper marketing to make people tap in. Meanwhile disney stays on top of making sure all their marquee series, animated or not, gets a spotlight.

You weren’t the target audience, so of course you’d have to Google it. Just because you don’t know of it’s existence doesn’t mean that they did a poor job of marketing it.

People gotta stop with that misconception.

:blessed::blessed::blessed:


what a time you just had to be there :mjcry:
Right! The Toons were on a whole nother level in the 90s.

- Iceberg
- Warner Bros Studio Store
- Six Flags
- Space Jam
- Looney Tunes on Cartoon Network AND Nickelodeon… forgot they also had shows on Fox Kids and the Kids a-dub a-dub a-dub a-dub Dubya Bee :ohlawd:

shyt even the 2000s showed love with the Lot 29 clothing brand plus newer shows. It’s disgusting how the Looney Tunes have been treated by Warner Discovery. Disney would never treat their MASCOT like this.


All the praise to Ketchup Entertainment :salute: for saving 2 Looney Tunes movies from that POS David Zaslav :pacspit:
