I can't believe Disney puts out a live-action remake that's the worst garbage of all time and it makes 500 million dollars, but Coyote Vs Acme is struggling and barely tops 31 million. People are idiots.
Coyote vs Acme was corny slop. Should’ve been raunchier and more adult like Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
The last time anybody cared about the Looney Tunes was when Space Jam came out in the 90’s. It’s been irrelevant ever since and I say this as a Looney Tunes fan. It’s sad but not surprising that this is flopping.
>>223020494>The last time anybody cared about the Looney Tunes was when Space Jam came out in the 90’s.Some Nicki Minaj music videos have more than 1 billion views, so obviously people do still like yo watch Looney Tunes videos. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4JipHEz53sU
Because North Americas are mentally brainwashed indoctrinated from birth to worship their corporations.
"Rotoscoped 3d trying to pass as 2d" always looks like shit. You can tell they tried harder to make Coyote look good but I hated looking at all the other characters.
>>223020494It's a zombie franchise that gets new projects because older people (i.e. executives) still think of it as popular and successful, just like Scooby-Doo.
>>223020390You can't believe it, really? Are you new to movies, or media in general?
>>223020471you're legit retarded. stop posting
>>223021479>t. slug who's afraid of his own sexuality
>>223020724Tranny animation is unironically even more soulless than CGIslop
>>223022623I agree with this anon. This movie needed more of>cartoon ladies with big boobs>Lana Condor showing her big boobsand>Lana Condor getting the Space Jam inflation treatment
>>223020390It's a good movie but WB was right to keep it shelved. They understand Looney Tunes is a dead IP with no appeal to younger audiences and the only way to make it interesting is to pander to the "urban youth" and include basketball americans as a plot point. But they already tried that, again, a few years ago and failed. So anyone who thought this movie was actually going to turn a profit is a delusional moron.
>>223020390A Looney Tunes movie in current year based off of a New Yorker article with soulless cheapo cel shaded CGI instead of hand drawn animation Shan't be watching
>>223020390>$80 million to buy the movie>$140 million in ticket sales to break even>not even going to break $100 millionYeah WB was right. It doesn't matter if it's a good movie if it doesn't draw dimes.
>>223020390>court room drama scares kids away>cartoon scares adults awayIts a movie for redditors
>>223020390Should have put them in capes.
>>223020494This movie is deep and meaningful, because it goes to the soul of Wile E Coyote, a character study where he finally realizes the terror that was inflicted upon him
>>223023584No, spiderman costumes
>>223020390Remember this moment when somebody says Titan AE was a flop because it was bad, not because the marketing and the market itself is fucked up.
>>223023707>>223022946>>223020848>>223020724>>223022663Is someone going to post some clips or what? Ive yet to see a single frame from this movie
>>223023734It hasnt been leaked in high quality yet, just shitty recordings have come out
>let's release a kid's movie right when the school holidays endgenius
>>223023854This isn't really a kids movie. Looney Toons audience is 40+
>>223023734
>>223020390Definitely not paying money to give this movie a chance. People fucking acted like "the day the earth blew up" was the second coming of jesus, but it was the most mediocre shit I've ever seen. People praising these movies like gold because of the 2d animation cult, and "lost media" bullshit
>>223024064You don't believe media gets lost?
>>223020390It's visually ugly and the plot is nothing special
>>223020390Since the cinema is dying, most films for adults make their money from tv and other shit now. A Disney live action, an adult has to take a kid and asap according to the kid, and that’s so many extra tickets. CVA is a film for adults, and adults only do a few big things each year now, like the pseudo intellectual Nolan piece for childish adults, and the comic book spider piece for childish adults. It’s far better watching films for actual adults at home with your own food, your own comfort, away from the modern public. It’s weird when two teens are making out and heavy petting behind you, kicking the back of your seat while Ned Beaty is taking it up the ass and squealing like a pig again. It’s the kind of stuff that pushed David Foster Wallace over the edge and you can kind of see where he was coming from.
>>223020390The premise sounds really retarded. A live action/animation courtroom drama about looney tunes starring will Forte? Who the fuck wants to see that? Definitely not kids. The only people who like will forte are Tim & Eric fans and maybe snl watchers, the same type of people who don't give a fuck about looney tunes and probably want to see will covered in blood and acting like maniac.
>>223024239To know the plot is nothing special you'd have to see it.
>>223024297The modern public is frightening. You see them at Walmart. Wasn't this movie meant to be straight to streaming rather than a theater release at its conception? It would've been better as a straight to BD/streaming release.
>>223020390They were right in writing it off. So much for retarded “movie fans” and their opinions.
>>22302339970 million was the original budget, Ketchup bought it for 50 million and sold the international rights for 20 million.
>are you coming back?
>>223024526>have you been witness to this coyote's pain and suffering?
>>223020390>I can't believe Disney puts out a live-action remake that's the worst garbage of all time and it makes 500 million dollars, but Coyote Vs Acme is struggling and barely tops 31 million.it was clearly rushed, i get why they tried to shelf it. some story beats start and conclude within the same minute of screentime and there wasn't enough here to be that fast paced.
They should make a reboot of Looney Tunes where Bugs and Daffy are trans and call it Looney Troons
>>223020390It's fun, all these anons shitting on it are ACME shills.
>>223020390I don't think looney tunes movies should exist. You can't tell a real story of meaningful conflict with slapstick cartoons. When nobody can die and nothing is taken seriously there can never be tension.
>>223025203Anyone else feel like the ending was inconsistent?>effective point about how rich corporations get away with screwing over people all the time because politicians don't really care>but it's really a victory because we humiliated them and also inspired others to come forward and hit them where it hurts>oh, and also here's a bunch of evidence so actually they didn't get away with it and the good guys won and it's a nice neat happy endingI get it's a kids' movie, but still...
>>223023707Titan AE is bad thobeight
If you think it's duck season you're literally retarded.
>>223020390This shit is a lazy snl skit at BEST and they made a movie out of it. Everyone who saw it should be allowed to get their money back.
>>223024035looks fucking horrible lol
Zaslav was right
i watched it and the animatino was so unbelievably bad and distracting it was impossible to get immersed in the film
No more lost media. If a corporation wants to get a tax write off on a failed project they should have to release all data related to that product into the public domain.
>>223025709Welcome to modern western CG. Just watch anime, you'll feel better.
>>223024035a big problem is that their eyes are never looking at anything. so they always look like soulless 3d models
>>223025608It's actually based on a New Yorker humor articlehttps://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1990/02/26/coyote-v-acmehttps://archive.is/20260830200317/https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1990/02/26/coyote-v-acme
It was great and made me cry.
>>223025741>Just watch anime, you'll feel better.i dont suffer from autism so i do not masturbate to cartoon characters
I actually wanted this film.>b-but muh corporate profitsDon't care.
Went to it opening night since it was Tunes and Will Forte. Thought it was great! Obviously it’s shit compared to original Chuck Jones run, but is not really trying to be Looney Tunes. It’s trying to a semi adult, but like another anon said, it’s way too tame. Honestly hate the entire supporting case. Cena is a retarded choice, and whatever that fat Jew guy name is who’s in every comedy hamming it up. But the worst was the fat bitch Asian. Even the deadpan older woman sucked. Forte was the only one treating it like it was-a shitty comedy with cartoons in it. Let’s get it straight though, a comedy is all about how funny it is right? In that way I was really surprised. So many good lines. Won’t spoil them but yeah I mean I did laugh. Interesting observation tho I just want to share with you homies. So not really a spoiler but they show old Chuck Jones Looney Tunes moments in the film. And, nothing I mean nothing in the whole film got as big of a laugh as those moments. It just made me so sad. Like nothing like that is around that comes even close to comparing to the absolutely brilliant slapstick of that era. Then I saw in the credits that James Gunn was involved. Well that explains it lol. The only thing he and his team know how to do is do eye roll sarcastic above it all humor. I mean I’m sure he wasn’t really involved but still. Now for the Tunes themselves. Wile E. was fantastic and his dynamic with Forte was cool. But Road Runner Stole the show. Legitimately one of the better portrayals of the character. Why didn’t Coyote talk though? Like I’m aware in every cartoon but one he is silent, however I would have liked him to speak in his upper class educated voice at least once. All the rest of the Tunes were utilized well, except Bugs and Daffy. Not sure why they got so little screen time and were barely getting themselves. Hands down the best joke has to be You will never catch The Road Runner!!
I didn't hate the movie but my god they did the most boring things imaginable with the some of the most interesting characters in the whole Looney Tunes arsenal.>Daffy does fucking nothing>Taz is the fucking head of PR>Elmer Fudd doesn't try to hunt Bugs once>Bugs does fuck all and disappears after 30 seconds of screentime>Tweety and Sylvester have virtually zero interaction>And so onThe only fucker who stayed true to his character was the fucking Coyote and even he gets bogged down in a dull as fuck court case
Having someone finally sue ACME for being shit is such a gold mine for content and i wish they would have just focused on that. The whole story line with the secret test lab where they made cartoons retarded and intentionally sold bad products to cartoons for i dont even remember what reason made no sense and was super uninteresting. Just make it a silly courtroom drama, parody famous cases and films, scummy companies, focus on the absurdity of it all, and you would have an absolute banger on your hands.
>>223025822i mostly agree. i was laughing out loud at the old clips but think i may have been the only one but there werent many people in the cinema. the deadpan women and fat jew were funny though, everyone else sucked and the chink was especially weird since they say shes supposed to be his niece and i at this point i dont even think it needs to be mentioned but the nigger was unnecessary are you telling me you didnt laugh when the jew was sniffing the entire five gallon bucket of glue?
>>223026046>are you telling me you didnt laugh when the jew was sniffing the entire five gallon bucket of glue?i dont remember that scene and i dont know who "the jew" is supposed to be.
>>223026046Ok wait that was funny damn you’re right but that fat Jew is in every fucking comedy in the last 20 years. So when I see him I just get turned off. I also liked him getting destroyed by the Road Runner but the the Road Runner is just instant comedy every time he’s on screen. Although he also made me cry during the court scene. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEPBEEP BEEP (are you coming back?)
>>223024035Good meme potential for forced DEI scenes
>>223026132>BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEPwhy did the roadrunner sound like Kermit the frog in the courtroom scene?
>>223026252I literally don’t agree that he says Beep. He says meep meep. Don’t @ me
road runner has one punch man vibes
>>223026311He’s hands down top 5 Tunes.1. Bugs 2. Daffy 3. Marvin 4. Road5. ??? Maybe Porky???
>>223025771Didn't ask what it was "um actually" based on you fucking retard, I pointed out the gimmick cannot carry a movie. You're such a fucking autistic freak you don't even understand the difference. Enjoy your trash!
>>223026373The power gap between Bugs/Daffy and the rest of the tunes is astronomical. Also Taz, Sylvester, or Tweety would probably be in the top 5 before Porky.
>>223020390I'm not paying to see Will Forte.
>>223026407Hmm you’re probably right Taz is great. Best side character is that big red monster does it have a name

>>223026469Oh right He was great in the movie too. I need a Gossamer t-shirt
>>223026373>>223026407Foghorn Leghorn was always the Tune I found funniest
>>223026562His shorts with the chickenhawk are great
>>223020390>comma instead of dot>Spanish in imageGo back Pedro
>>223020390>31 dollars, comma, 1 Million???
>>223020390this movie got fucked by buddy imo. all the dumb parents took their children to see that thinking it would be a kids movie instead of an an actual kids movie. FNAF games and its movies have ruined childrens entertainment. now all they want is subversive horror mascots when they dont even know what they are subverting. at least looney tunes wasnt an irony filled mess
>>223026722Depending on the language / region / regulation, the decimal separators can be either be a comma instead of a dot, as far as I know, most Spanish-speaking places use comma, so does Portuguese. It's one of those things you never consider there might be a difference depending who you ask because of how mundane it is.
>>223025407it ties into the theme of the sysiphean struggle. they werent gonna be winning cases but the lawyer now had a new meaning in life and wasnt afraid of failure, much like how wile keeps chasing roadrunner
>>223026805One must imagine Wile E Coyote happy
>>223026805But that's my point, yeah he has a new lease on life and isn't afraid to try/fail.But also, here's the slamdunk piece of evidence so they actually succeed anyway. It undermines it.
>>223026897he got the evidence because he chose to fight it out and the trial got public attention. if he had never stuck it out the evidence would have never seen light
>>223020390Honestly when it comes to looney tunes and Disney shorts I feel like they don’t really work with being in full feature length films, because most of the time the characters can resolve the plot of the film with their cartoon logic. That is why what’s his face was against space jam back in the day because he knew bugs bunny would have fixed everything without Michael Jordan’s help but because it’s all about the money he couldn’t really object.
>Coyote vs Acmelast news I heard about it was its sacking, appearantly they put 0 money in the movie's marketing
>>223026407>"power gap">"the tunes"holy smokes. you need to shut the fuck up. before I literally kill you, you faggot
>>223025930This, I was kind of hoping it would be more like that.
>>223026737Bullshit that parents thought Buddy was for kids. It's a Rated R movie and the kinds of characters it parodied were ones for 4 year olds
>Zaslav getting vindicated.>The whole campaign might of sunk the chance for another Looney Tunes movie for the foreseeable future.
>>223024227It's under your couch as always
the miserable retirement home threadlet's get all of you to bed
>>223020667That's true, but don't forget: >we'rre all living in Amerrika
>>223027354Destroying media is never correct. Zaslav will always be evil.
>>223026373>>22302640790s wise, the big 6 whereBugs, Daffy, Taz, Porky, Tweety, and Road Runner.Now the thing is, the Tweety and Road Runner where interchangeable with Wild E and Sylvester since they where a pair. So it was really Sylvester and Tweety and Wild E and Road Runner.Like, Sylvester got a lot of merch. Like sitting wwith Bugs and Daffy with Taz.
>>223027555oh so you wouldn't destroy a hard drive full of child pornography? good to know
>>223027555incoherent rambling when i was a lad it used to be two cents a gander more rambling and that's why the rabbit what was his name again? tugs? anyway, he's the peak of masculinity
>>223027317>parents doing more than one second of research on what their kids consumenewfag to life itself
>>223024035Can I get Foghorn, John Cena, and the other lawyers standing and celebrating?
>>223025610Wile E. Coyote looks fine in motion for most of the movie but Foghorn Leghorn's model is pretty bad. I have no idea why they didn't just make them all 2D. At this point 2D is way cheaper.
>>223026385NTA but SNL skit and new yorker article are both pretty similar sorts of things, so they were probably just trying to point out you were largely correct. No need to chimp out.
>>223027766ai slop doesn't count, raj
>>223020390Looney Tunes are no longer culturally relevant. If a Howdy Doodie or Gunsmoke movie came out today it would flop all the same. Blame Warner Bros for mishandling the IP for the past quarter century.
Test
>start releasing movies to streaming within weeks, if not days, if not simultaneous release>people don't rush out of their houses for "eh might be good" movies
I'd watch it but I don't have kids so I'd just come off as a weird pedophile. Not to mention that it's not being shown in english.
>>223027803Who said anything about AI? Check the budget for The Day the Earth Blew Up and compare it to most CGI or mixed live-action CGI movies these days.
>>223027907I bet the showings are 90% adults and 10% their kids they dragged along. Gen Alpha doesn’t watch cartoons, much less have affection for 80 year old characters.
I saw an Instagram edit of this and it legitimately made me tear up.
>>223020724Bugs was completely hand drawn 2D so they clearly had the capability of doing 2D animation but didn’t so instead were stuck with hideous Elmer Fudd.
>>223027926TDTEBU was the equivalent of a made-for-TV movie, plus no pricey celebs to tack on at least half the budget.
>>223027734
>>223027976Point still stands where we're no longer at the point where the CGI models are always more cost effective. Really they should've just spent more time on Foghorn Leghorn's model.
>>223027998>The fucking spacing on Foghorn's eyes.Boy, I say BOY.
>>223027354>Zaslav getting vindicated.This didn't happen. The film has received universal praise. Its existence is only further embarrassment to wb.
>>223028094>Wanted it vaulted because he didn't think it'll make the money.>It's not making the money.Uh-huh, but by all means, cope with the...praise.
>>223025780Why you lie?
>sir, we have all of these left-over 3d-models from that cancelled warner bros kingdom hearts spinoff we made for the ps2 back in 2004. maybe we could use them for a movie?
>>223028137>money is the only thing that mattersAre you providing enough value to the shareholders, Anon?
>>223028137>domestic total already at $40m>international distribution sold for $20m>bought the film for $50m and spent $10m on marketing>critics and audiences all love itThey need to make around $65m at the box office to break even. Considering its success so far, it's pretty much a guarantee that they'll make money from streaming.Seethe harder.
>>223022772>It's a good movie but WB was right to keep it shelved.No they weren't. Far worse films get released all the time.
>>223028332Thats good to hear, wouldn't want the people who saved a piece of media to lose money on their beneficent act.
>>223020390The movie isn't even out in the entire world, in my country it doesn't even come out till the 18
>>223020390Everyone was asking "Why would WB do this?" when they canned CvACME for a tax write-off, but I knew why.It was never going to make any money.People don't give a shit about the Loony Tunes. Outside of Spacejam, all of their movies bombed hard.And this isn't even a traditional movie, it's a legal drama about Wile E Coyote. No one was ever going to watch this.
>>223020390With a $10 million production budget and $10 million marketing budget, that would be a modest success I would say. Wait the budget was how much? For a looney tunes movie? Well that’s a decision I suppose.
>>223028452As opposed to runaway hit films such as... *checks notes* Joker 2.
>>223026252It's especially jarring since he changes voices mid-scene. When he first shows up, he's using the classic "Meep-meep!" sound, but then as soon as he starts testifying he has that super deep "BEEP-BEEP."
>>223020724
>>223027317>Bullshit that parents thought Buddy was for kids.I work at a movie theater. Trust me, parents are that lazy/stupid. Back when Seth Rogen's Sausage Party was out in theaters we were CONSTANTLY having to inform parents it was an R-rated film that wasn't meant for kids, and they were ALWAYS surprised.
>>223024227This movie had already been leaked and streamed on Discord even before Ketchup bought it from WB, it was never gonna be "lost"
>>223024227i lost my matrix dvd
>>223028332>Seethe harder.>they'll make money...from streaming!Wew.
>>223028622You gonna tell me Batgirl still exists, bra?
>>223028767Batgirl was never finished but Coyote was already locked before Zaslav wrote it off.
>>223029053Sounds like lost media to me.
>>223029067Media is not inherently worth preserving
I was mildly interested then I saw it was 3d shit unconvincingly trying to pass as 2dLike, can you you support that on principle? That's not the theatrical quality. Think about Who framed Roger Rabbit.
>>223029108many disagree
>>223029288Supergirl came and went and nobody cared. People are only interested in Batgirl because it was shelved. There's an allure to lost media because your imagination fills in the blanks as to what could have been, but reality is rarely as interesting.
>>223029140i am thinking about who framed roger rabbit, now what
I felt like the movie was funny. I think the ending was missing something since foghorn was clearly sensitive to being seen as weak but the ending bit just kind of happens.Turning the supreme Court itself into a big joke was very funny to me.I also just like looney toons and they're consistently at least a 7/10 so I got my $12 worth
>>223020390Lana Condor was hot as fuck, I love how she was a bit chubbier in this flick.Just wish she wouldn't have had waxed everything, she has such a nice body and qt face.
>>223026897>But also, here's the slamdunk piece of evidence so they actually succeed anyway. It undermines it.I don't get it? The ending clearly shows they lost?
>>223020390Parents don’t like violent cartoons
>>223022772They tried with LeBeta of course it flopped
>>223020390> ForteI hate Forte like you wouldn't imagine.
>>223029599Anon's referring to the videos Bugs leaked after the trial, which resulted in Foghorn and Buddy getting arrested.
>>223026442>>223026461
>>223028503Most of the time Road runner is using Mel Blanc stock recording.
>>223029756They should've just done that for the whole movie. It's not like he's sobbing hysterically when he testifies.
>>223023707>titan AEbad example. its first act is fine but then at the mid point for no reason at all the captain just becomes a turbo space nazi and suicides himself for nothing lol like was the point of his arc?>supposed to be a space pirate captain>establish that he hates the dren and will do anything for money>establish that the dren are energy based creatures that act like bees with a queen and have no interest in money>get told there is a way to defeat them and restore humanity>suddenly turn into Adolf Hitler>kill your loyal crew>treat the survivors like shit>make a secret deal with the dren after establishing that they dont care about deals or money or anything other than killing your dumb ass>the dren accept the deal as the plot requires it>the dren then do nothing at all for 30 mins while you have a showdown with Mac_Guffin>the guy who not only told you that humanity can be saved and showed you how to do it but also said you'd be a hero for all eternity for doing it and get to be a king on paradise planet>so anyway you die like a BITCH lamo
>>223024035He's literally me
>>223029353i dont really imagine what batgirl would be. i want to see the trainwreck it was.
>>223022772>refuse to release it>let subsidiary grab the bag>refuse to market itLiterally no one at all knows its even a movie thats released lol so no, retard. Its not going to have a big opening because its relying entirely on word of mouth.
>>223030288Drinker believed it could be a tolerable 6/10 with Firefly as the main villain. In a hypothetical scenario with no woke inserted everywhere.
>story by: James GunnThere, I found your problem. It was made to be a bomb.
>>223031015>nearly everyone outside of /tv/ loves ituh huh
>>223031015Right, cause everyone hates Guardians of the Galaxy...
>>223031075If everyone outside of /tv/ loves hows the box office then? You cant say everyone and then showing me a 30m box office. 30m is not "nearly everyone". Who is everyone if not the audience? the audience that is not there obviously.
>>223031297minimal advertisingnormies don't even know it's out, same issue TDTEBU had
>>223020724It was the worst for Foghorn, but mostly wasn't terrible. Really could have used some fine tuning.
>>223020390I heard about this movie, thought it's cool but then I read what it's actually about and put it on the very, very end of my backburner so I can be disappointed with it in like 50 years.
>>223020390Every Time a Looney Tunes movie comes out I hear it from here. There is always zero advertising.
>>223024035this looks legitimately terrible jesus christi don t feel bad about this flopping now
>>223031753It's a bit amusing. In the next 5 movies you watch, absolutely one will be worse. Not earth shattering or anything but cartoons are fun.
>>223020390>Feel sympathy for the unkillable chaotic monsters freely roaming around
>>223020390Almost like this boring turd was shelved for a reason
>>223030304hence why it'll become a classic, fandoms are already making tons of toxic/doomed yaoi edits
>>223032189Yes, James, it will be become a classic.
This is a dogshit movie for kids 6 and under. You have to be legitimately retarded to think it was good or to enjoy it.
>>223020390I liked it
>>223020390I don't like that this film was championed as some kind of "return of Roger rabbit"/return of animated film, and like every single animated element is some ugly 3DCG shit.
>>223027998>John Cena is more animated than the literal cartoonSmdh
>>223028699Yes little guy, that is how things work in the real world. Successful people don't care how their money is made and aren't on 4chan larping that streaming money isn't real in some weird cope cycle.
>>223024035It looks like a Dragon Ball game.
>>223027976Sure, but Coyote vs. Acme was more than four times more expensive.
>>223033442They really should just pump out full animated movies every year. The day the earth blew up was quite good, I'd take plenty more of those
>>223033425The animation is janky and pretty low budget but you get used to it because there's some good jokes and the character interactions keep things moving. The main problem is that the animated human characters like Granny and Elmer Fudd really look bad, like something from the Xbox 360. In hindsight there's a reason why they're showed off the least.
>>223026737>this movie got fucked by buddy imo.Really? I liked his dynamic with Foghorn.
>>223033907ntain the event you're not joking, and i acknowledge you may very well be, buddy is also the name of an evil barney knockoff movie released on the same day
>>223033924This movie was always fucked and I think WB probably had the right idea forever shelving it. It's one of those cases where "no matter when we release it, some other movie people actually give a shit about will eat our lunch"Not to say it shouldn't ever come out, but I see why money people thought it was better to just say fuck it
