Fun Fact: When He Was Fired Chuck Jones Went To Be Director Of The Tom & Jerry Cartoons In The 1960s.
He also directed the Dr Seuss animation specials as well.
That’s why I was so confused when I was little. When I watch old looney tunes. I saw Chuck Jones. When I also watch Tom and Jerry. I also saw Chuck Jones. I always say to my self that he works at both studios but nope. He got fired and he just got a new job.
He also was involved in the 1962 film Gay Puree, loved that movie as a kid.
@@jadedheartsz That movie was the reason Chuck Jones was fired from Warner Bros. He breached his contract when he worked on that film.
@@mevb yeah I heard that, it was total bullshit that he got fired.
I love the original Looney Tunes due to the unpredictable nature of them, especially the ones with Bugs Bunny.
I love screwball daffy
Every Saturday at noon?! Mat, my boy, you're spoiling me! Doubly so because I've been a long-time fan of these immortal kings of comedy ever since I was a wee animaniac.
This might be quickly becoming one of my favorite Lookbacks so far.
KidSnivy69
....Not that I'm complaining, but how in the holy name of the immortal June Foray do I keep running into you?
Best guess, birds of a feather?
There's none today
classic channel Was I talking to you?
I love how you introduced this recreating the beginning of The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie!! It's awesome, keep up the good work :)
My Personal Favorite Two Looney Tunes Movies Are The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner and Bugs Bunny’s 1001 Rabbit Tales
"How the fridge did we suddenly connect basketball with aliens and Looney Tunes?!"
My defense for Space Jam's existence is: Why not?
I've been a big Looney Tunes fan since I was 8 years old in 2007, I then discovered Tiny Toon Adventures and Animaniacs in 2009 when I was 10... which was the same year as I saw DVDs of Looney Tunes classic short collections, Space Jam, Who Framed Roger Rabbit (I think) and Looney Tunes Back in Action, and in 2011 when I was 12 I saw about one or two episodes of The Looney Tunes Show, then in 2015 one month after my 17th birthday I became a huge fangirl of the TV series "Wabbit" and then couldn't stop gossiping to my friends about how much I loved that show and I also couldn't stop catching up to every broadcast of each show episode! I just wish Wabbit would air more episodes...
I wish the Looney Tunes Show got more episodes
@oddbiku hi biku
I’ve been a fan since the very beginning like the early 1980’s when the “Looney Tunes” were shown on WNEW-TV (channel 5) in New York City.
Before TV, WB cartoons were shown in theaters every Saturday morning and afternoon before a main feature film. In addition, they used to run in kiddie matinees every Saturday where kids and young kids saw them, along with film serials and other cartoons from other studios like Disney, Paramount for the “Popeye” and “Noveltoons”, MGM for Tom & Jerry and others, and Terrytoons for Mighty Mouse and Heckle & Jeckle, and then you get the “Three Stooges” shorts for 15 and 20 minutes each. They used to played in theaters throughout New York City and others each Saturday when parents and kids goes to a theater and see a cartoon as part of a kiddie matinee whether it was opened earlier at 10AM or 11AM or maybe a lunch break a noon. You get an hour and a half of cartoons and live action shorts including WB, Disney, or MGM along with a serial film, and the one problem that bugs the people was the ending including a cliffhanger where what was going to happened next and ends with a “To Be Continued”. After all of the cartoons and shorts were finished, it goes into a main feature movie.
this is Animation Lookback at its finest
you're one of the greatest animation analyzer of our time.
Looney Tunes: Back In Action is an underrated film, in my opinion. It was more in the classic Looney Tunes spirit than Space Jam.
I agree, even if I love Space Jam, Looney Tunes Back in Action is much underrated
Can you one on Tom and Jerry. I think that cartoon deserves to be mentioned for it's superb music, slapstick skits, and unforgettable voice actors and episodes
Watch his Hanna-Barbera lookback.
He already covered that, in the Hanna-Barbera episode.
And also being the closest cartoon to the Looney Tunes (especially Sylvester and Tweety!)
The opening number is "Rise and Shine" for those who don't know. It was the original intro of "The Flintstones" before the classic tune replaced it and later was used by Bugs Bunny
I'm surprised Mat talked about Bosko without mentioning "THE DIRTY F*CK!"
I wonder if he's going to be the honorable mention. Bosko spoken about in detail
Oh, boy, did WB get in trouble for that little 'incident'...
Eh??
One last problem; Golden Age Cartoons are normally seven minutes long, which is not much time for a story. Story is another thing I like to see in animation projects; without a good story an animation project cannot be enjoyed as much. Now, I understand that Golden Age short projects were more interested in comedy and gags than in story, and I am still capable of laughing at what I see, but with movies and television, I can get real stories with well-thought-out characters. However, this is not to discredit the Looney Tunes entirely. As I said, I do appreciate the Looney Tunes as a part of animation history. In my future comments on this Looney Tunes Lookback, I will prove this appreciation by telling which of the Lonney Tunes projects I do like (based on which character is explained in each video).
Hey Mat. That book that you were reading at the beginning of the video. I have that book. It's a really good book and would totally recommend it to the Toonfanatics in the cartoon community. Especially if they really enjoy the Looney tunes.
What's the book called?
I love how you presented the video in the style of the Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie.
parodying the Road Runner Bugs Bunny Movie... Genius
Ah, do I smell a Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie homage?
You are correct
You saw it too, eh? *sigh* There's a great compilation film I won't soon forget...
AT Productions
Mine was the infamous June Bugs marathon way back in the mid 2000's. The compilation films I'd find about 3 years later, when we finally installed Netflix streaming into our home.
it's one of the best looney tunes movies of all time
I haven't seen that movie in such a long time!
Duck Dodgers was to me the best of the different adaptations. I'm talking about compared to loonactics unleashed and the baby looney tunes.
Duck dodgers is miles ahead of those two..
The Duck Dodgers series was amazing! I mean it had Paul Dini as one of it's writers! Unleashed and Baby both felt like cash grabs of just taking a pre-existing formula and slapping the Looney Tunes in it. But Duck Dodgers was one of the ones that really felt like it existed in the same spirit as the old shorts.
What about tiny tunes?
That's a whole different story!
I loved the intro, Matt
For some reason when boomerang re-aired baby looney tunes, I COULDN'T STOP WATCHING!!! I recorded every episode and seen EVERY one of them! Episodes from 2002 - 2005
This is absolutely wonderful. Thank you for all the effort & time you spent to bring us this.
Hopefully there will be Animation Lookback: Nickelodeon Animation Studios.
I bet good old Animat will enjoy The Loud House. LEt's see what he thinks of it.
Hey Animat... IT looks you gotta wait for the upcomings films and do a review on The Loud House.
Jose Loreto Yes there really needs to be an Animation Lookback Nickelodeon
I've been waiting for this with anticipation and after seeing this, I am not disappointed. I enjoyed the hell out of this.
I have to say now. My three most beloved Looney Tunes directors is:
Bob Clampett, Chuck Jones and Frank Tashlin.
mine too.
I think jones was too overated but he freakin colll too,Bob clampett is insane(in a good way)and Frank tashlin is incridible
Guilty pleasure. I love Space Jam and Loonytics Unleashed.
I love space jam, but havve no opinion to loonytics unleashed
Back in 97 I thought Space Jam was awesome (I was 13 back then going 14). Nowadays when my taste of films have been updated, I still think it's really good but not quite compete with Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, the Disney features, Pixar movies and such.
COME ON AND SLAM‼️🏀
Loved Space Jam back in the day when I was 10 years old & I still enjoy it now in my 30's
The first Bosco cartoon were never released in the cinemas, instead Sinkin' in the Bathtub was the official debut cartoon. The real first cartoon was shown on Cartoon Network decades later.
I like that the opening tune is a medley of the Looney Tunes theme and the original Flintstones theme (the one that came before the one that is far more iconic).
I love the Looney Tunes., I even still watching them now. I was thinking, Can you do a video of "The History of Warner Bros. Animation"?
I would like to add that due to the Box Office flop of Looney Tunes Back in Action, not only did it close down Wanner Bros. Animation studio until 2014 with The Lego Movie (second last movie is Osmosis Jones which also have a flop), but also was the reason as to why Loonatics Unleashed was made (in case you don't know, is to revive the cartoon but in a more edgier style for the kids).
"Looney Tunes: Back In Action" and "Osmosis Jones" are too underrated. It's a shame, as is the fact that they both bombed. It's shocking that "Looney Tunes: Back In Action" bombed, because "Looney Tunes" is such a hot property.
Two words: Brother Bear.
One of the greatest cartoon series of all time. It has become more culturally, more legendary, more historical, more brilliant, and more famously upon fame and form of initiation-such behind other cartoon series in both waysides!
18:56 Hey! you forgot Arthur Davis
Wow beautiful intro AniMat! Well done, I'm really excited for this.
Ah yeah! A brand, spankin' new Animation Lookback! This goes to show you that even though there's projects that are hated, like "Loonitics Unleashed" or really liked, like "Tiny Toons", or somewhere in-between, like "The Looney Tunes Show", there is always the classical theatrical shorts love and treasure, even after generation after generation.
Gee, that was really sappy. =_= Here's look forward to the rest of the Lookback!
Peace.
^_^
This video is f*cking amazing. Seriously you should be the most subscribed youtuber making videos like this.
The intro was taken right out of The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie
Interesting and worthwhile video. Leon Schlesinger also produced six very early John Wayne Westerns during the early 1930s.
YOU ARE A SCHLESINGER COOL!
@@Gelasans Yes, my grandfather was Leon Schlesinger's first cousin.
@@robertschlesinger1342 WOAH!
I will say that I liked watching the Looney Tunes more when I was in college. Since I was starting to learn about animation at that time, it made me more interested in animation's history; not to mention the Looney Tunes were having multiple reruns on Cartoon Network. Today, I do have an appreciation for the Looney Tunes. In fact, I suppose Chuck Jones could be my favorite Looney Tunes Animator. However, the reason for why I never made a favorite animated shorts list is for multiple reasons. First of all, there are way too many Golden Age Cartoons to count, and I just can't decide which ones I like more than others. The most I an do is tell my favorite shorts that star each individual character. This is a problem for the Disney shorts, the Tom and Jerry Shorts and the Paramount shorts as well. Secondly, seeing the animated short films in college convinced me that there are a lot of short projects that have no dialogue; a major problem for me because I take voice acting very seriously. An animation project does not feel like an animation project without voice actors.
bs
That looney tunes theme song at the beginning was also used in bugs bunny 80th year anniversary montage
You really captured that Looney Tunes feel with that opening! I can't wait till tomorrow!
Also, am I the only who found "Lady, Play your Mandolin" catchy? XD
Despite it being a Mockbuster for Mickey Mouse, no. It is ungodly catchy
I hope once the Animation Lookback on Looney Tunes is complete.You might plan on doing an animation lookback of Fleischer Studios. Such as the history of Betty Boop or Popeye.
Great Animation Lookback video on the Looney Tunes! And guess what? I'm watching Looney Tunes now! :)
but this is so great a shed a tear
Not going to lie this is my favorite time of year because of fall and animation look back
8:51
*HOLY CATS, I'VE BEEN DRAFTED!*
At first I misread this as "The History of Looney Tunes Animation Comebacks", and thought it was about all revivals of Looney Tunes (which are noted here, but it's not the main focus), so I was surprised to see so much focus on the classic era.
There's another unsung hero: Treg Brown, the editor & sound effects guy. Genius
amazing job, AniMat you just brought me back to my childhood T W T Also I can't wait to hear each autobiography of each Looney Tune Character ^-^
ANIMATOIN LOOK BACK IS BACK BABY.
AniMat's monetization for this video was disabled because of the opening song, which he now has to fight. Hope ya get it fixed AniMat
Great job, Animat!
A "History of Carl Stalling/Milt Franklin" was needed.
best part of the week
oh
4:46 Minnie and Mickey as Foxes surprised Disney sew… well I guess this was before they were 🌎🌍🌏
Usually I learn things from you. But today I was an equal! I knew everything you said and it made me proud. These cartoons are what I consider the pinnacle of mankinds achievements.
*sees that Pepe is next on the list* AAAH. DO HIM
xxMintoStarxx Maybe it's just me, but the way you were all like "do him," it sounded like you wanted AniMat and Pepe to have gay sex O_O
I love this series already. reminds me of when I would watch The Epic Mickey Files. Love ya lots Dragon! ^^
I would also like to hear the history of Pepe's "lover". aka, Penelope the cat
Thank god it's about time!
So Mel Blanc was in an accident and ended up in a coma. The doctor tried everything and couldn't get him to wake up then he had an idea. He would talk to Mel as his characters. He'd say something like, " Hi Bugs." Then Mel, still in a coma, would answer as that character. Like he would answer, as Bugs Bunny, "Ehh, what's up, Doc?" He went through each character until Mel finally woke up
Loved looney tunes since I was a small girl. I still love then now at 20!
I wish they would do a video of DePatie-Freleng Enterprises,and how they started.
Great job summing up the history. BTW, I love Looney Tunes, but the cartoons 1964 onward can go shove it for all I care.
Makes sense, Considering Chuckie was kicked off
@@trippcory This reminds me of when paul terry, sold terry toons. After that it all went down hill in quality. Unwatchable.
I remember watching The Bugs Bunny and Tweety show on re runs as a kid. I still remember the theme song.
The loony tunes are the biggest names in quality entertainment.
The Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote with Yosamity Sam by a close second.
I actually really enjoyed back in action
I'm looking forward to watching your Biography videos on each and everyone of the Looney Tunes.
Update:
"Wabbit: A Looney Tunes Production" was renamed and re-branded as New Looney Tunes during the shows second season and ran for three seasons from September 21, 2015 to January 30, 2020.
On May 27, 2020 a new cartoon series titled "Looney Tunes Cartoons" premiered on HBO's new streaming service HBO Max.
In 2021, a sequel to 1996's "Space Jam" titled "Space Jam: A New Legacy" made by Warner Animation Group and starring LeBron James set to be released in both theaters and on HBO Max on July 16, 2021.
This guy is a TH-cam treasure
At 1:17 this is Habitat 67 , it bilt in 1966 for International expo de Montral ,Québec Canada , it surprise me to see it about a story set in Los Angeles
Ever notice that there was only 1 episode from the entire golden age of Warner's that had Bugs (very briefly), Daffy, and Porky in the same episode, and not one that had Bugs and Porky working in a duo in any episode at all?
FUN FACT: Looney Tunes served as an inspiration for SpongeBob SquarePants. SpongeBob and Bugs are both able to dig undeground and rapidly move from one location to another at will.
I think Spongebob was slightly inspired by Daffy's old personality and Squidward by Daffy's current one. But yeah, that sounds logical. SB has a lot in common with Looney Tunes anyway.
Abdullahi Bouraleh I pretty sure Wabbit brought back the goofy Daffy Duck.
Xj Productions Haven't seen him in that show yet, but they perfectly captured Bugs, I'll say.
Excellent work on your AL episode :) I'm quite interested in the ideas of the other characters. I'm especially looking forward to learning more about my favorite Looney Tune; Pepe Le Pew :)
Mel Blanc, a great man. He was one of a kind man, everybody, including me, want to imitate him.
Ah yes the wonderful cartoons of Looney Tunes oh how I remember them so
Especially my favorite TV show from them LOONATICS UNLEASHED which I love when I was a kid
that show was horrible
Why?
RedRobLikzDisney it's betrays everything that made looney tunes so great, instead tries to rip off batman beyond and every other neo futuristic action series that was popular at the time
and why not, the Looney tunes are also great as superheroes because they are inspiring.
Great Video ElectricDragon505, I love the looney tunes history and all the characters, but you forgot about Hubie and Bertie the mice and Claude the cat.
After Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising bailed out of Leon Schlesinger Productions (whose company originally made title cards for silent movies in the years before “the Talkies” - and they didn’t only show credits… they also made title cards which let the audience know what was being said on-screen… or something like it). But once movies had learned to speak, Schlesinger knew his company’s days were numbered. Talkies obviously didn’t need dialog titles. They only needed credits, and this little development, no matter what else may have happened in the film''So with a lack of anything else to do, and given the overwhelming success of Mickey Mouse and a lesser success of a number of cartoons from other studios, such as Paul Terry’s Terrytoons, among others, Leon decided to go into the animation business. But it took a bit more than just the desire to make cartoons (in order to make GOOD cartoons). But Schlesinger already had cameras that could shoot cartoons, along with everything else needed to put cartoons on the screen… except just a few things - like ANIMATORS, INKERS and PAINTERS, and with the advent of sound, VOICE ACTORS were hired to make whatever characters they’d put on the screen actually TALK! But it was Hollywood, so everything he needed was readily available (provided those things had been invented by the time he needed them).
worst opening weekend for a youtube video
Poor Elmer. He wanted to kill the wabbit with his spear and magic helmet, but he couldn't, because it was Duck Season.
I bet Dave Lee Down Under will be jealous of that one.
Wait no Dave lee down only create solo evolution character
I like to think that The Looney Tunes would be friends with some of the Disney Charecters, and since they're "actors", they pretend they're rivals.
Space Jam was my favourite movie as a kid. I would literally watch it every single day.
He's funny with the 'see ya later dudes' thing. It sounds like Michaelangelo from the ninja turtles. It does when I do it anyway.
16:00 My Favorite part!
I love how you're doing The Bugs Bunny/Roadrunner Movie. Super Genius.
Are you jewish? Also your pretty
Please continue your Disney, Pixar and Dreamworks lookbacks, it's been 6 years since the ñast one.
pd: who could hate the Looney Tunes show?
Your voice sounds like David Cross.
Great video, thank you!
wabbit season , duck season ,wabbit season ,duck season fire gun shot sound,Daffy to bugs - you're despicable
Enough of making more Scooby Doo animated movies and we want more Looney Tunes animated movies instead.
I love your video and personal representation!!!! Thanks for this great job!!!!!!!!
Very fascinating intro to the Animation Lookback.
Can't wait to see what happens next
This was amazing well done!
I fondly remember watching the Bugs and Tweety Show on ABC in the late 90s to 2000, then when they moved to Cartoon Network I was kinda bummed since my family didn't have cable so I could only catch them when we visited my grandmother on mondays every week(and sometimes on sundays after sunday school).
You didn't look at the executive producer on the credits in the late-1960's. The cartoons from the late-1960's looks like a TV show.
Looney tunes is an underrated cartoon, especially the characters and the 2011 reboot which are also underrated!!!! It's not my favorite franchise, but it's in my top 10 favorite franchises!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Sylvester, Tweety, Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, Road Runner and Bugs Bunny!!!
Actually Freleng wasn’t the only one who worked at Harman and Ising and Leon Schlesinger Productions Bob Clampett Robert McKimson (the only person to work on the very first Looney Tunes short “Sinkin’ In The Bathtub” and the last short “Injun Trouble”) as well as a couple others also Bosko was created in 1927 not 1928
I’ve loved the Looney Tunes all my life.
I thought this would be the shortest AL ever.
Then I saw the end.
Great narration, as long as we don't have to look at you in a house coat again.
What book is he reading?
