10 Greatest WB Cartoons

[Emmanuel Cruz]

Does anyone have the list of the 10 greatest WB cartoons IN ORDER? I appreciate it. Thanks!

[Crazy Tom]

I do not have the list, but I can tell you that in my opinion, 5 of them should be the Academy Award winners, which are Tweety Pie (1946 copyright with 1947 release date), For Scent-imental Reasons (1948 copyright with 1949 release date), Speedy Gonzales (1955), Birds Anonymous (1957), and Knighty-Knight Bugs (1958). There were 19 others that were nominated, but I would not think that 5 of those would make the top 10.

Just something you might want to consider...

according to a bunch of experts, these are the top 10 (you can get the page with this from Jon's links page):


Rabbit of Seville (1950) - Directed by Chuck Jones

You Ought to Be in Pictures (1940) - Directed by Friz Freleng

Baby Bottleneck (1946) -Directed by Bob Clampett

Gruesome Twosome (1945) - Directed by Bob Clampett

Kitty Kornered (1946) - Directed by Bob Clampett

One Froggy Evening (1955) -Directed by Chuck Jones

Porky Pig's Feat (1943) - Directed by Frank Tashlin

What's Opera Doc (1957) - Directed by Chuck Jones
Book Revue (1946) - Directed by Bob Clampett

Duck Amuck (1953) - Directed by Chuck Jones


They are in no particular order (why should one cartoon be heralded as number one, anyway?)
