Hi all I think I'm about to come out of the cartoon closet and admit to the world that I love those old cartoons. Looney Tunes, Merrie Melodies, Bugs Bunny, etc etc. I sneak into the video shop acting as if I have kids to take these cartoons home to, but it's my own secret addiction I'm feeding.Two of my favourite modern films are Who Killed Roger Rabbit? and Drop Dead Fred ( a sort of live action cartoon), but most other modern cartoon shows are just dry & dull & just plain silly - they do not have that creative genius of the old cartoons. Oh weep & moan for modern day money-motivated art :-(
The only modern cartoon I can think of at the moment which is really worth watching is Count Duckula - it has that same strange/weird sense of the ridiculous. Sorry, fcan't forget about Wallace & Gromit, of course.
Well, this is all my own opinions, so I suppose other people will disagree with me on some things. But it's nice to know I'm not the only living fan of the older style cartoon genius.
