Just finished going through my entire collection of Looney toons......the entire 10 hrs of it.....Well, that is enough to make anyone see the lighter side of life...in my case, I tend to focus on the lighter side of life too often so this just pushes me over the brink of publically accepted standards into insanity.
One great thing about Looney toons is that its Timeless Appeal. no matter when you watch it or how many times you watch it it again presents itself with reinvigorating sense of light headedness , a bullish appeal to stay nonsensical and an overcoming zeal to be funny, funnier, funniest. One can never get tired watching it. The simple vagaries and varieties of life presented in a plethora of unusual and hysterically humorous situations.
The way the Gravity waits for the time for the Coyote to realize that he has made a mistake, the various actions Bugs does to show how a "Wabbit" acts, The sniffing spiffing spitting supreme Daffy Duck, the sweet Tweety Bird and " i think i thaw a puddy tat", T-th-the p-p-p-Porky P-P-P-Pig, The absolutely lightening Roadrunner, and the one and only ACME factory and its most generous User....Wile E.Coyote, The Mexican Crossborder Refugee...Speedy Gonzales, and the hopeless romantic Pepé Le Pew always constamment trouver l'amour, The fuddled brain of Elmer Fudd, and TAZ my personal Satan....the Tasmanian Devil.
Of these the one I like the most is Bugs Bunny......" Aeeeeyyy ....What's Up Doc?" and one of Groucho marx's most oft repeated line"Of course you realize...... this means War". The really excellent piece of work done by Mel Blanc and Friz Freleng had Bugs bunny take up the Star at Hollywood. His nonchalance and total nonsensical approach towards life is one that , maybe I think is required (of course in moderation )...... today.
These days our lives are too much bounded by time, career, and what not.... some moments of insanity will help bring back the asymmetry of life.
