Looney Tunes Cartoons (2019–2023)
4/10
Looney Tunes , 2020 version
10 July 2020
What can I say? I tried hard to like this one, but except for nostalgia and beautiful backgrounds, I've been disappointed. I think it's my fault though: every product is part of their time, and The Looney Tunes was born thanks to the artistic atmosphere of the Golden Era of Hollywood and Animation, which cannot be replicated just copying. I think the totally different direction of Looney Tunes Show, or new Mickey Mouse shorts is a batter way to use old characters.

So this new Looney Tunes is what you should expect from a 2020 reboot cartoon show: an honest copy of the original one, with great character models, super fluid and bad (really fake vibe) character animation, and with humor half good and half typical 2010s-animated-show-humor for kids which I honestly never liked: the one that tries so hard to be funny, with gross humor, unfunny fast paced scenes, and predictable unpredictability. Even the most classical slapstick scenes are deprived of any weight. I dunno, they just happen.

Overall these shorts are not the best LT material, but they are better than the greater part of the LT of the 60s. If you are an animation lover, you'll probably find the same problems of mine; if you are mainly a LT lover, you'll probably like this show anyway.
