Looney Tunes

Looney Tunes have been with us since April 1930 when the first cartoon came out 'Sinkin in the bathtub' with Looney Tunes first main character -Bosco the talk ink kid. This character came from the first animation with syncronised speech and sound that was not made by Disney. As you can imagine, that's where the rivalry started.

However, Looney Tunes also used racial stereotypes in their animations.

Due to copyright issues, in 1933, Bosco and his friends were no longer part of Looney Toons. On the bright side, this lead to the creation of new characters such as Porky the pig, and a few years later Daffy duck, bugs bunny. In the 1950's these were put on television but had to be edited to take out scenes of violence, smoking, drinking, and racial stereotypes, so they would be suitable for children. 

In 1988, Looney Tunes finally shared the screen with their Disney rivals in 'Who framed roger rabbit'. They also starred in space jam! Both of which were live action crossed with animation.

Looney Tunes have now gone 3D and in my opinion they have lost the Warner Brothers style. 3D does not suit these well known characters and they shouldn't have tried to be something they're not. However I do understand that they are moving with the times and that is what kids of the new generation want.
