View Full Version : Well, they made another "Toon Marooned"
I rather liked it, Daffy isn't as annoying as I though he would be, almost a half breed between silly and evil Daffy, with no Bugs-Daffy rivalry (YAHOO!), they also voted someone off, but you have to watch it to see who, go to looneytunes.com
Now to just vote out Taz;)

I liked it! Gosh that's funny! The animation's not great, but it's great for a computer cartoon, and it doesn't have to buffer or get blurred or stop in the middle or anything. It's refreshing to see the LT characters in action again, and the Daffy Duck trip-ups in the race are clever. I wish they gave a writer/director credit or something. You can tell with Daff where they're using different models, they switch from a Jones-looking Daffy to a Space Jam version a couple times, but all are well-rendered. It's a shame they got______so soon, because the voice actor, ____, would've really been fun to hear again. The guys I want gone are Tweety and Taz, and possibly Foghorn, simply because he hasn't DONE anything. The "butterfly ballot" gag was funny...smacking sylvester, getting shot by Fudd. If you guys haven't checked this out yet you ought to.

I liked that ballot thing too! I also noticed Daffy's shape shifting, there are even a few moments where he even looks like late 40s/early50s Daffy. It's nice to see him do something funny for a change, rather than the whole egotistical thing, even if he does get hurt.
I vote for Taz EVERY day (click on the Toon Marooned thing at the top to vote, Taz may be next, he had the second most amount of votes last time I checked)
I algree, the animation is mediochre, as is some voice acting, but it's fairly well written, and has nice backgrounds (very Taz-cartoonish).

Did we see the same show, Jack? I'll agree that Daffy was both silly and evil and the same time, but what did he do that was funny that wasn't egotistical or selfish? Trapping Granny in the snare? Burrying Porky alive? (The Taz thing I'll let go.) And there was plenty of Bugs/Daffy rivalry. Maybe not as much as there has been in recent years, but Bugs definitely seems to enjoy it when Daffy gets blown up or gets hit with the anvil or has the boat walkway fall on him. IMHO, Bugs and Daffy have not been a good team since the early '60's.
Daffy is a bit selfish, but hardly egotistical, it's refreshing to see a cartoon where Daffy doesn't constantly talk of how great he is, or how much better than Bugs he is, selfishness and egotism are different things. I didn't see the Bugs Daffy rivalry, Bugs shows no emotion or enjoyment when Daffy is hit by the walkway, and he only expresses a very mild amusement when Daffy explodes, but no more than at other times in the cartoon. The rivalry of Bugs and Daffy is when Daffy has to always try and prove how great he is (IMO), that didn't happen here. There most likely will be no rivalry, Bugs isn't even a contestant, so Daffy has no reason to try and show him up, but if he does try, I'll vote for him to be booted off. I have a feeling that Daffy will win a few more immunities because he is one of the most likely to be voted off next week, and they probably want Daffy to be on as long as possible.
I thought the Porky thing was funny, in sort of the same way "The Old Grey Hare" is funny.

The subject of this thread sounds like "Maroon Cartoons" the cartoon studio in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" that produces the Roger Rabbit cartoons run by R.K. Maroon.
