SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
View MoreIt is a performances centric movie
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
View MoreA great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
View MoreYou may be expecting three Road Runner cartoons a pop, or two and one other cartoon, but what you are really getting is one Road Runner, one Sylvester cartoon, and a third cartoon that could be anything, each episode goes like that.It could be very disappointing if you're only there for the Road Runner, and if you dislike the Rudy Larriva directed ones, then it can be even more disappointing since you know thats all the Road Runner you'll get for the episode, but i understand why they limit it to just one Road Runner short a episode, after all with only 40 Road Runner shorts at the time, if you show three every episode the show isn't going to last very long.The theme song by Barbara Cameron is just great, its super catchy, gets you in the mood, and fits the shorts, though you wouldn't think it would. If you haven't seen the show before you may know the theme better as that song from the film "The Shinning". The tune is so iconic that The Looney Tunes Show plays a short variant of the song during the tittle cards for their Road Runner Shorts, if you know anything thing about the show, (Besides the shorts in it) its the theme.So what about The show it self? What do you expect me to say? Its Looney Tunes, obviously the three shorts of each episode are almost always great, your enjoyment of the show depends on if you like Looney Tunes, and while some episodes have some real stinkers (Like "The Jet Cage") its mostly classics. To give you a idea its mostly shorts directed by Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, and Rudy Larriva, and sometimes Robert McKimson, there are other directers, but thats mostly what you get with these shorts. One problem i have is the tittle cards, each short has its credits removed and replaced with one of three tittle card designs, thats all well, but this is the Road Runner Show, and most of those shorts have credits that are apart of the opening scene, leading to some jarring starts to these shorts.But anyone and edit Looney Tunes shorts together and call it a show, out side of theme, are you getting anything new here? Actually, yes, between the shorts of these funny little bumpers of Wile going after the Road Runner, none of it is reused footage, its all new, and the animation in these bumpers are much better than Larriva's shorts, mostly because the bumpers and eyecatches were directed by Robert McKimson, (Who also directed "Rushing Roulette" and "Sugar and Spies") he does a much better job, i dunno who wrote them though, who ever did had some funny gags, like Wile dresses up as a Road Runner. In fact one of these Bumpers seems to have inspired Jones himself, one bumper with Wile using a Tennis Racket and grenades to blow up the Road Runner plays out almost the same as a scene from 1979's "Soup or Sonic" directed by Chuck, though in Soup or Sonic the Road Runner doesn't really have to do anything to win. It makes me wonder why the intro is mostly made out of stock footage when they could have made it with new animation.So you are getting mostly great cartoons, a catchy theme song, and some entertaining bumpers between shorts, i'd say thats not a bad deal indeed.
View MoreThis is a great cartoon show full of Warner Brother's popular characters, including Wile E. Coyote, The Road Funner, Sylvester, Tweety, Speedy Gonzalez, and Daffy Duck. Who would forget Road Runner's classic "beep beep" phrase as he speeds past Wile E. Coyote, or the funny battles between Sylvester the Cat and Tweety the Bird? Each character is treated with unique flavor and they give each episode fun adventures and entertaining chemistry. It is a cartoon series of all ages!Grade A
View MoreThe desert in the U.S. southwest is the natural habitat of the Road Runner, a high-octane, cartoon bird who runs so fast on the desert's roadways that he leaves a trail of flame or causes pavement to ripple, distort, or roll up like a carpet. This speedy bird is unrelentingly chased by a hungry coyote named Wile E., who, though believing himself to be a genius, repeatedly fails to catch the Road Runner with his endless supply of ACME Corporation gadgets, weapons, and other paraphernalia. Episodes of this television series contain three theatrical cartoons, one with the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote, one with Tweety Bird and Sylvester Cat, and one with other characters from Warner Brothers' cartoon classics. One of the funniest and most memorable shows ever The Road Runner Show packed some great laughs and a lot of failed attempts of the Coyote to catch the Road Runner but also some pretty cool stories with Tweety and Sylvester and this is a show that every kid should see.
View MoreThe "Road Runner Show" is filled with pure classics. It consists of one Wile E. Coyote and The Road Runner, one Sylvester and Tweety, and one random cartoon. Unlike what ABC did, in butchering the cartoons when guns and weapons were used, these are original and uncut. The reason is to watch this show on Teletoon is to wait for one of two classic Sylvester/Tweety battles: Gift Wrapped; which takes place on Christmas, with it's cowboys and Indians segment, and the parody of Little Red Riding Hood with some "The Honeymooners" added in. The random cartoon can be just about anything except Bugs Bunny. I've seen Foghorn Leghorn, Ralph and Sam (Wile E. Coyote trying to steal sheep from a sheep dog), Speedy Gonzales vs. Sylvester, Sylvester (sometimes with Sylvester Jr.) vs. The Baby Kangaroo, and an all-star cartoon featuring Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, and the Ralph the Dog that is featured in the Foghorn Leghorn cartoons. Great stuff! If only there was a place to see Bugs Bunny on T.V., I'd be happy. Maybe they'll show the Bugs vs. Wile E. confrontation in which Bugs takes The RRs place, and was so good, they later had Bugs face a talking Wile E. several times...
