I’ve tried to buy every new collection of remastered Looney Tunes that gets released (barring DVDs that contain only repeats), so I’m relieved I picked up the Pepe Le Pew collection years ago. It’s currently selling on eBay for between $100-$200! Right before this Space Jam news hit, it was selling for 10 bucks!

It was, but I think Coyote and Roadrunner were more popular and prolific than Pepe because a.) You wanted to see what wacky new, Goldbergian invention the Coyote would come up with next and b.) the Coyote was essentially the villain but possessed a mixture of pathos, naivety and never-ending optimism that made him…

Yeah, I just don’t watch Pepe Le Pew cartoons and equate it with anything that would actually happen in real life, or feel a necessity to make a moral judgement against it. It’s just a ridiculous, kinda funny Looney Tunes series.

I think for anyone going out of their way to defend OR decry a cartoon skunk, the joke’s on them.

Well, it’s okay to want to eat someone, not have sex with them.

“The Looney Tunes Show” was actually very good, although a quite different take on the characters. I just shocked myself by looking it up and realizing that show is 10 years old!

Wait, is Gonzo a chicken? A weird, deformed blue chicken?

I don’t think there was ever any more substance to Pepe Le Pew cartoons than a dumb skunk and a hapless cat.

See, it’s just not me who thinks this. Screw you, Tweety!

Happy 35th Anniversary, Highlander!

Of course, cat sex is not very consensual, so it’s not that inaccurate. Not sure about skunk copulation.

I liked when a Pepe Le Pew cartoon would come on, mainly because it provided variety between the constant stream of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck cartoons. Pepe is a much more specific character than most of the other popular Looney Tunes, with a gag that can only be stretched so far. (He appeared in fewer than 20…

It’s like it’s saying, “You’re an awful person for enjoying old Pepe Le Pew cartoons.” Which is probably not a great idea in a Looney Tunes movie. Just leave Pepe out, or give him a less offensive role. 

A Space Jam movie probably doesn’t need a lecture-y scene about a serious topic with a cartoon character, so no real loss there.

I swear, for a moment I thought this article was about a “Bigfoot-friendly social network.”

Pirates was perfectly fine, thank you.

As the boat sails away, Jack’s frozen hand rises slowly from the depths.

Nothing matters more than the integrity of the show and the fictional world. Just so people can feel high and mighty in getting her fired, those of us invested in the story have to deal with losing a character that is an integral part of it. Don’t you understand that I prefer fiction over stupid, petty reality??

Just had to stop in and give props to the headline writer!

Damn, this movie sounds like a winner. Going on my watch list!
