Loonatic Suits

You may or may not have heard about Warner Brothers' plans to "remake" the Looney Tunes characters into something that would "speak to today's generation of children," (their words). Well, a little boy in Tulsa decided to show the greedy, empty suits just exactly how screwed up they were, and started a campaign to protest their plans, apparently with some success. I'm glad to see he at least got their attention--not that I expect them to do anything about it.

Another netizen, disgusted with their "nothing from your childhood is sacred" attitude and shameless money-whoring, took it upon himself to satirize Warner Brothers' "Loonatics" concept. The result is both funny and sadly close to the truth. He attacks the "Xtreme" sociopathic sub-culture created by the likes of MTV, which is rapidly leading to a Clockwork Orange-style mentality among teenagers who are too poorly-educated to understand that Kubrick was insulting the "counter-cultural revolution," not supporting it. At any rate...

Turn the sound on, make sure there are no children, animals, or easily wilted plants in the immediate vicinity, and then click here.
