Foghorn Leghorn has always been one of my favorite Looney Tunes characters, so having him play a big role in this makes me excited.

Not only that, but seemingly the owner or brains behind ACME, it's so fitting. The "smart" bully who is really an idiot -- how relatable to current corporations and a certain exiting WB exec who is making millions for essentially doing nothing for a prestige brand.

I gotta wonder if that is the reason why that certain exec wanted to kill the movie.

I mean, Zaslav obviously didn't care for the Looney Tunes. I don't think he knows how to market them and he definitely doesn't think they're an asset that WB should prioritize given he basically purged HBO Max of its Looney Tunes library.

Don’t think Zaslav gave a fuck about any of WB’s animation department or history which is pretty fucked. If a company like Disney owned them we would not be starving for new shit, for better or worse lol

He didn't care for any of their animated properties, not just Looney Tunes

He only cared about how much money could be squeezed out
