Buster Scruggs is a live-action Wild West cartoon by design. There have been strokes of heightened madcap quality evocative of American animation in their work before: the comic hijinks chases of Raising Arizona , as were the visuals of futurist Art Deco colliding with earnest American ingenuity in The Hudsucker Proxy , and a singing cowboy with acrobatic skills on a horse and with a gun was teased in the star persona of Hobie Doyle Alden Ehrenreich in Hail, Caesar! Buster Scruggs then proceeds to break the fourth-wall and what happens next is quite stunning. Short of having a carrot in his mouth to chomp on, Buster Scruggs speaks directly to his new audience, the viewer, and immediately reveals he is a wanted man. That essence, above all else, makes him as a fully realized live-action version of Bugs Bunny in quite some time. So why have this story as part of this movie and why have it be first?

Cool Cat (Looney Tunes)

Be patient Cartoons Written by Jon Cooke The year was , and the Golden Age of theatrical cartoons was coming to a close. Times were changing. Most theaters refused to pay extra money for what was considered merely a filler, and the people who used to come to the theaters were now turning more and more towards television for their entertainment. The Warner Brothers' cartoon studio was struggling, and after the release of "Senorella and the Glass Huarache", a retelling of the Cinderella tale, the famed animation studio closed its doors.

The release of "Senorella The cartoon characters had already found new life in the world of television, but their career in theatrical cartoons wasn't quite over yet. Shortly after the studio's closing, Friz Freleng teamed with producer David H. They leased the former Warner Brothers cartoon studio and began producing animated openings for the series of Pink Panther feature films. The star of these clever opening credits sequences was soon given his own highly successful series of cartoons, the first of which won an Oscar.

Along with focusing on its own cartoon properties, DePatie-Freleng was commissioned to make new Warner Brothers cartoons featuring the already established Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies characters. Obviously, someone at Warner Brothers realized there just might be some profit left in new theatrical shorts.

The thirty-seven shorts which followed were definitely a mixed bag. They have been widely dismissed by fans and critics as terrible. Leonard Maltin has called the whole batch of shorts "abysmal", making this era of Warner cartoons the most overlooked in the studio's history; even the Harman-Ising cartoons of the s have received more attention in animation history books.

The cartoons produced during this period are in no way great. They are amusingly funny at best, but none are as classic as the vintage cartoons of Jones, Freleng, Clampett, Tashlin, McKimson, and the rest. Extremely limited budgets, weak writing, limited animation, and awkward character pairings were what hurt these cartoons the most.

However, they still deserve more attention than what has been given to them. The animation was a little better than later DePatie-Freleng productions, and this Speedy cartoon was about as decent as any other Speedy cartoon produced earlier in the old studio. Friz Freleng directed this short in which Speedy tackles the bad guy, bandit Pancho Vanilla a possible Mexican relative of Yosemite Sam. Freleng oversaw production of the first five Warner Brothers cartoons produced by his studio.

Each one of these five efforts had a Co-Director credit given to Hawley Pratt. The familiar and famous openings and closings of the classic cartoons were replaced by a more "modern" opening which featured updated graphics and an annoying, new version of "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down". The cartoons also no longer ended with the trademark "That's all, Folks!

These openings had been used on a handful of entries done in a more "modern" style during the classic years: "Now Hear This" , "Bartholomew Versus the Wheel" , and "Senorella and the Glass Huarache". Speedy Gonzales became the major character during these years. They made an odd choice on who would be the foil to Speedy in his new adventures. Sylvester the Cat was the villain in most of Gonzales' older shorts, but his attempts to catch the fastest mouse in all Mexico would only appear in three DePatie-Freleng efforts.

Sylvester was soon retired, and Daffy Duck stepped into the putty tat's role as Speedy's foe. Daffy first crossed paths with Gonzales in 's "It's Nice to Have a Mouse Around the House", where we see Sylvester finally going crazy from his many years of Speedy chasing. The duck, of course, fails. Whatever the case, Daffy was now Speedy's co-star. The biggest problem was Daffy. In order to make him a suitable villain, like Sylvester once was, Daffy became quite nasty and bitter.

He lost all the charm he once had during his heyday. Daffy's greed and cruelty in a few of these shorts was taken to extremes, even for Daffy! In "Assault and Peppered" he whips the poor Mexican mice for "[starving] on [his] property", and in "Go Go Amigo" , he takes over a local radio station at gunpoint just so that Speedy and friends can't listen to music at Daffy's electronics store!

Sylvester made one last appearance as a cartoon star in 's "The Wild Chase". This cartoon is more interesting than entertaining, as it features Wile E. The gags are "borrowed" from previous Chuck Jones Road Runner outings.

Of course, it would have been nice to see who would have actually won in a race between the bird and mouse how many WB fans have pondered the same question? Unfortunately, the cartoon ends on a rather predictable note: Wile E.

Rudy Larriva directed a series of new Road Runner cartoons. The critics have had a field day trashing these cartoons as well. Wile E. There were three of this nature released in Enter Granny, who thinks Daffy and Porky are just Halloween trick-or-treaters. All this is soon followed by a series of funny, mistaken identity gags. The appearance of the over-polite Gophers is the highlight of the picture, but after this cartoon, Daffy would only be seen alongside Speedy Gonzales.

Clips in this cartoon were from "Robin Hood Daffy" , "Deduce You Say" , "China Jones" , "Tortilla Flaps" , and "Mexicali Shmoes" , as Speedy gives examples of a "stupid duck" and a "smart mouse" to a young mouse friend. Some other entries also provided some funny moments. We also learn that Daffy Duck has a nephew! The cartoons produced by the company had proven successful enough that Jack Warner decided to reopen the old cartoon studio. DePatie-Freleng Enterprises went on to produce numerous cartoons with its star, the Pink Panther, along with other animated characters like the Inspector, the Ant and the Aardvark, and the Texas Toads.

It also went into television production and turned out a number of limited-animation series, which have become largely forgotten.

During this reorganization of the Warner Brothers' cartoon studio, three cartoons were sent out to be produced by Herbert Kylnn at Format Films the company best known for bringing the original Chipmunks to TV on the s series, "The Alvin Show".

This trio of films were directed by Rudy Larriva, and were surprisingly well done. In the second of the three titles, Daffy tries to get some rest on his vacation, but is constantly being awakened by Speedy and band in "The Music Mice-Tro".

This would be the last of the cartoons directed by Larriva and the last to be produced at Format. Warner Brothers had officially opened its cartoon unit once again, and this time, the head director was Alex Lovy, with producer William Hendricks. Lovy had been previously employed at Walter Lantz Productions and directed a number of cartoons featuring characters like Woody Woodpecker and Chilly Willy.

The first cartoon to be released by the newly reopened studio was "Speedy Ghost to Town" in It was decided that the Daffy-and-Speedy formula would continue. It would appear that Jack Warner was hoping that one of these characters would become a new Bugs Bunny. The first new character to be introduced was a beatnik tiger named Cool Cat, in a cartoon titled "Cool Cat". This first Cool Cat cartoon also introduced the English big game hunter, Colonel Rimfire, who was seen pursuing our hero in a huge, mechanical elephant.

Both characters were voiced by Larry Storch of television's "F-Troop" fame. The next character to be introduced was a W.

Fields-like rodent named Merlin the Magic Mouse, who was also introduced to moviegoers with a self-titled cartoon. The premise of this series of shorts would be the various of misadventures Merlin and his young assistant, Second Banana, would get themselves into due to Merlin's backfiring magic tricks.

Daws Butler provided the voices of the two characters in the first cartoon, but the voice work was taken over by Larry Storch for the remainder of the series. Neither Cool Cat or Merlin really caught on, but both had brief series which yielded some amusing cartoons. Cool Cat's hip-talking personality makes his films seem a bit dated to today's audience, but one could also argue that the ridiculous-sounding jive-talk makes the Cat cartoons funnier to today's audiences.

Merlin's shorts didn't quite have as many amusing moments; the early shorts pitted the Magic Mouse against a dopey Indian named Lo in "Hocus Pocus Pow Wow" and a pair of feuding hillbillies in "Feud with a Dude" also , but these shorts failed to generate much interest in either Merlin or the villains. Meanwhile, saw the oddest of the Daffy and Speedy cartoons, "Skyscraper Caper". Unlike their previous encounters, the duck and mouse were now best pals! The plot of the short is the old gem of a character Daffy, in this case sleepwalking through a construction site while another character Speedy watches in horror as his friend narrowly escapes disaster again and again.

It was also nice to see a friendlier version of Daffy again. Will Friedwald and Jerry Beck, in their book, Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies , describe this short as "a contemporary satire on business methods and social behavior.

Lovy continued to also produce "pilot" cartoons for possible new series through They had to use their wits to avoid a boisterous big game hunter voiced by Mel Blanc not to be confused with Colonel Rimfire. Neither of these cartoons resulted in a follow-up; the same wasn't true for the next "pilot" cartoon, "Bunny and Claude We Rob Carrot Patches ".

This short also marked the return of director Robert McKimson, who directed the rest of the Warner Brothers' shorts until the closure of the studio. It's easy to see what the inspiration was for these two characters: the Road Runner and Coyote series. Quick Brown Fox was very much like Wile E. Coyote, setting up a series of backfiring gadgets, while Rapid Rabbit never spoke but produced noises with his bicycle horn.

It has been said that a series of Rapid Rabbit cartoons were planned, but this was the only one produced. Similarly, a series of "Keystone Kops" cartoons were written but never saw the light of day. It was becoming obvious that the reorganized studio was not producing the kind of profits that were hoped.

The Warner Brothers' theatrical cartoon studio was soon officially closed down, not to be opened again until the late s, when a new generation of cartoonists tried their hand at producing new cartoons in the classic spirit. The age of theatrical cartoons from Warner Brothers was now over. However, Cool Cat and Merlin were featured on Looney Tunes merchandise throughout the s and s, including drinking glasses, figures, PEZ candy dispensers, puzzles, jelly jars, comics, coloring books, and even given shapes in Nabisco's Bugs Bunny animal crackers!

After ten years of art education, McKimson went to work for Walt Disney. In , McKimson was promoted to director , replacing Frank Tashlin. Critics, perhaps unfairly, routinely dismiss McKimson's work-- that is, when the critics deem to discuss McKimson's work at all. Much of this critical neglect likely stems from two factors: McKimson's early death, and his extreme shyness.
