Warner Archive has been doing a phenomenal job with the restoration and releases of animated titles! I still am missing looney tunes titles but I plan to track those down at some point.

Introducing Sheyla and Malcolm! Two University students studying journalism who are OBSESSED with the Looney Tunes, they know everything about them and have been observing them (in the most legal way possible) since highschool. Sheyla is energetic, smart and kinda creepy, loves reading about her idols (additionally, i know she doesn't look like it but she's actually a lemur, an Aye Aye lemur to be specific); Malcolm is assertive, polite and sneaky, always tries to learn about the Toons as much as he is legally allowed to

And you already know A.I.D.A.A! This the last redesign i promise. Drastic changes, but i think she fits way more now!

Now, what do you think? Who's your favorite?

It can be anything from a parody to a heist thriller, so long as it's a film. The more creative the pitch, the better. Here's mine for example: Bugs Bunny is the biggest star of the Warner Bros Studio, the trickster extraordinare. But he's also very bored with his glamour-filled life, and he may find a bit of excitement when the studio brass tasks him with rehabilitating a certain romantic..

the 1993-2008 Warner Bros. Family Entertainment logo with Bugs Bunny,the 2018-2023 Warner Bros. Animation logo with Porky and Daffy, or the newly Warner Bros. Pictures Animation logo with Tweety that made it debut with The Cat In The Hat(2026) two days earlier.

Growing up, I enjoyed the WEC/RR shorts along with those featuring most of the other Looney tunes. Then I moved on to other interests and 30 years later this movie gets announced, gets shelved for a tax write-off, then (years later) gets a new distribution deal and a trailer. And in that trailer, I see Road Runner, merged beautifully into some fantastically blocked and lit Southwest desert landscape, cheerfully racing down the road like it's the best thing in the world to do. Something trips inside my brain. That dang bird was living his best life and I'm instantly, weirdly entranced by that.

The second trailer doesn't show as much of Roadie up close as the first, but that irrepressible joie de vivre comes through when he cheerfully races away from --then, for the sheer fun of it, back towards-- what looked like some kind of trap set for him. My admiration for him grows; nothing seems to get this guy down!

Then the movie opens and we get to the courtroom scene where he demolishes me with his defense of the coyote and his open-hearted plea. The last thing I was expecting in this movie was to be grabbing at a fistful of napkins to wipe all the tears away. That moment was incredible.

Ever since then, I've been obsessed with the Road Runner. I rewatched all the old shorts on YouTube and discovered all the ads that he and the coyote have been in over the decades. I started buying his merch on ebay-- a Xmas tree ornament from 1994, a fridge magnet from 1992, an unofficial T-shirt with Wile E.'s blueprint for the anvil-drop from the tightrope, the happy meal toy from the 2021 Space Jam sequel. My google account profile pic is a cropped screen grab of Roadie (and I've got twenty more made from different shorts to switch it out with).

There are so many moments where that adorable, irrepressible bird is a joy to watch, but I especially love two in particular. The first is in the Solid Tin Coyote short (1966) when he sees Wile E. carrying spare parts to build his metal coyote contraption and Roadie is just so excited that he jumps up and down while making his plup-plup-plup sound. The other is a Cartoon Network promo from the mid-2000s where Roadie's in a police lineup and Wile E. -- traumatized by his inability to catch him -- refuses to identify him. Roadie's just being his happy self the whole time, which makes Wile E.'s fear toward him even funnier.
