it'd be really cool if everyone put their money where their mouths are and went and saw the new fully 2d animated looney tunes movie that's in theaters RIGHT NOW instead of continuing to scream about the snow white and lilo and stitch remakes

you guys LOVE theatrical 2d animation, right? you're utterly drained by the live action remake trend? you wanna at least try to participate in the effort to bring it back into the limelight in a non-anime context? here's your chance. go see "the day the earth blew up: a looney tunes movie" at your nearest theater.

guys wouldn't it be sooo funny if we not only saw this opening weekend but saw it again the day the snow white reboot released and out-grossed it. wouldnt that be so fucking funny. piss off WB corporate (who tried to can the movie like they did everything else) AND disney corporate. wouldnt that be funny

guys they're pulling this from theaters THIS WEDNESDAY after less than a week in theaters so please go out and see it now if you can

A bit of an update to the last post: one of the film's storyboard artists (who also helped spread the news of its getting pulled), Michael Ruocco, got an email from Ketchup, the movie's distributor, saying that it'll stay in theaters through this weekend!

However, he reminds everyone that it's still a limited release, and the only way it'll stay in theaters is ticket sales. So... y'all know what to do if you wanna support the Looney Tunes and 2D animation in theaters. Buy more tickets. Hype the film up. Spread the word to as many folks as you can.

Box Office Mojo says the film's made over a third of its budget back-- ~$5.3 million out of $15 million-- through worldwide sales (including domestic opening weekend in the US), so we're doing kinda good!

because someone brought this up: WB corporate isn't getting money from the ticket sales, as they're not distributing the film.
