Seriously, it’s very hot over here and I can’t turn the fan on because I won’t hear what anyone’s saying!
I haven’t yet complained about how quiet the real movie footage is compared to the inserted footage. Sort out your THX sound settings, damn it!
I like the part at the beginning because bascially they’re trying to make Space Jam. Oh God, I just stated the obvious, didn’t I?
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is more than just a crossover to make us feel giddy seeing characters from seperate licenses join together. It’s one of the greatest technical/artistic achievements in cinema history. Trust me, I saw it at a special screening with The Thief and the Cobbler that coincidentally took place on my 21st birthday (I even had photos taken with Richard Williams himself).
Unfortunately, several people these days see it as just something that makes them excited just because it’s Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny together, so now seems like the perfect opportunity to recap one of the films that tried to cash in on the success of Roger Rabbit, Looney Tunes: Back in Action, the film that is at least better than Space Jam. But this is the Pooh’s Adventures version, so that automatically makes it worse.
The closest Back in Action could get to being a crossover were a smart take-that at the Scooby-Doo movies offered by Warner Bros. as a marketing gig and the Daleks among other classic sci-fi aliens. But thanks to the magic of Windows Movie Maker, we are treated to Winnie the Pooh, Pokemon (of freaking course), Mickey Mouse, the Madagascar penguins, numerous Disney sidekicks and the villains from Power Rangers. Hm, can’t be worse than the work of Yakko, can it? Well, let’s dig into this anyway. It feels great to be Pooh’s Adventures of Looney Tunes: Back in Action.
Goodness gracious, out of everyone in the audience Dick Williams could’ve shook hands with…
The wiki believes this member’s work is vandalism. The hypocrisy here, I tell you…

And to top it all, the best pic they could find for Ren & Stimpy is a copied fan art.

As if adding the Seinfeld bunch wasn’t stupid enough, he’s become Reese Ambler 2.0 and added himself as well.

Didn’t Carl intend to go on his journey alone? And how the hell do these people think more than a dozen trains as well as giant fish in a small house being pulled up by balloons will work out?

Songs

This is why Disney stuck with Quasimodo instead.
- Music from Thumbelina (composed by Barry Manilow) in the scene of Pooh remembering the tsunami in Thailand.
Yes, he even has Pooh’s Adventures of The Impossible planned. CarltonHeroes has an even stronger desire to take a shit on true stories than Reese Ambler.
Remember the time I raised a dinosaur with a pack of lemurs and a bunch of trains?

Remember the time I discovered that Barney the Dinosaur is actually a cool guy?
