Popular Post sagii Posted July 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2020 Happy Birthday to the G.O.A.T. You look amazing at 80 (better than i look at 50!). While characters like Superman, Wonder Woman, Captain (Shazam) Marvel, Col. Steve Austin, (and close second Godzilla) have stood the test of time in my heart, The Wascally One has always remained #1. I got into Bugs during the Saturday Morning cartoon line ups of the 70's and 80's (The Bugs Bunny/ Road Runner Show) it was billed at during those days. Never missed it, The Super Friends or the Shazam / Isis Hour. Would head out to the Big K shopping mart on Saturdays after with an older cousin (RIP cousin Shirley) who take me to get any Bugs/Looney Tunes items (comics, coloring books, flip books, etc) i could find after getting my cartoon fix Able to put in a smile on my face and get a chuckle out of me even on my not so good days, he is a true 'Original', and an enduring cultural icon. Loving the New shorts on HBOMAX, looking forward to Space Jam 2 next year. The USPS is issuing a sheet of stamps to mark the occasion, (it's the second time Bugs has been honored with a Stamp) and here's to 80 more a couple of items from the Wabbit Hole to follow #BugsBunny80 Marty Mann, MrBedrock, OtherEric and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N e r V Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) What's Opera, Doc? What's Opera, Doc? is a 1957 American Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Chuck Jones and written by Michael Maltese.The short was released on July 6, 1957, and stars Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd. Legacy The cartoon is widely regarded as Chuck Jones’ masterpiece, and many film critics, animation fans and filmmakers consider it to be the greatest of all the cartoons Warner Bros. released. It has topped many Top Ten lists of the greatest animated cartoons of all time. In 1994, 1000 members of the animation industry ranked What's Opera, Doc? No. 1 in a list of the 50 greatest cartoons of all time. In 1992, the United States Library of Congressdeemed it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant", and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry, making it the first cartoon to receive such honors. Duck Amuck and One Froggy Eveningwere later inducted into the registry, making Chuck Jones the only animator with three shorts thus recognized.

Its not a complete set in any way (that’s a lot of Bugs) but I’m as excited to get Bugs on Blu in HD as I was Scooby Doo’s original cartoons last year. Lots of good ones in there... sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N e r V Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I sent these pictures to ricksneatstuff after last years SDCC. I enjoy stopping (and buying) stuff at the Chuck Jones Gallery in the Gaslamp here. Hopefully they don’t end up being another “victim” in this pandemic... (I limited the photos to the Bugs related stuff only but they have Peanuts and much, much more in animation) BitterOldMan, OtherEric and MrBedrock 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
