In every way, The Day the Earth Blew Up pays homage to and follows in the tradition of the classic Looney Tunes cartoons preceding it. Now, if only Ketchup Entertainment could rescue the apparently stranded Coyote vs. Acme.

This animated movie with Porky Pig and Daffy Duck puts its classic characters through a depressingly witless and vulgar adventure.

Warner Bros. first began releasing animated shorts in the “Looney Tunes” franchise in the 1930s. Since then, the franchise has evolved, adding new characters and going from animated shorts to TV series to feature films.
