    The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie

    ★★★

    I’m a die-hard fan of the classic Looney Tunes shorts, so I never really cared to watch the new iterations, including Space Jam or any of the many straight-to-video holiday specials.  But I can definitely appreciate the effort to stick with the original vibe of the shorts and these characters.  The story here is pretty batshit crazy, but that’s also what I liked about it.  Also impressive that they didn’t have any cheap cameos from other Looney Tines characters.

    ★★★★½

    I was a white teenager (now a white old man) in the Bay Area when Rap music finally hit our local radio airwaves, or at least my own eardrums, in 1984. Run-DMC's "It's Like That" was the very first rap song I had ever heard and from that moment on, I was hooked; Hooked on rap music in general, but especially Run-DMC. I've seen them live on stage five times, bought every album and saw their never-again-to-be-released movie, Tougher Than…
