"Multiplex Mallard" - Daffy does his best to annoy Porky and Petunia at the theatre...

Better than the last one, at least. I laughed at a few of Porky's stutterings, especially the Sundance line. It's nice to know that they prefer the underused McKimson Daffy to the overused Jones Daffy. Still, a few lame gags (the diaper one in particular). Not sensational, but not terrible either.

This was better than some of the recent LT webtoons.

daffy was good here.

I liked the glasses gag. and I also liked how they included the ant from another toon (continuity.)

Wow, they must've ran out of good webtoons... Another lame one... I'm sorry but these poorly voiced, flash-animated 'cartoons' are a real autrocity, and should stop being made... Put the fifty cent budget of these shorts into more Golden Collections!

And those webtoon guys REALLY need to learn how to draw Petunia...:ham:

Aw, that one wasn't too bad. I could've done without the diaper gag, but there was some good stuff in there. I particularly liked the animation on the ending, though I won't give it away. The characters looked a little off design-wise, but it could've been worse. Compared to the older TV parody series, this latest batch is by far an improvement.

Thing is, these aren't meant to be the classics...they're meant to be an entertaining diversion on the internet for about 3 minutes. Nobody is trying to create a "what's Opera Doc" or "Porky in Wackyland" here. They're trying to keep the characters fresh and do things with them, and if it's hit or miss, at least they're trying. They could learn a few things though, namely:

1. Bathroom humor gags are not that funny, and don't work with these characters.

2. Looney Tunes are about the characters and their personalities, not so much the situations.

3. Parodies should never be the only source of humor in a Looney Tune.

4. Don't beat a dead horse. We don't need more than one CSI spoof, for example.

5. Sometimes subtlety can be funnier than hyperactivity.
