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.
