Bauzá

Bauzá es una de esas marcas de las que tengo cero información, pero incluso la marca se ha ocupado más o menos lo mismo de hacer saber al resto del mundo sobre sí misma. Sin embargo, aquí está lo que sé: Bauzá es una marca de origen cubano. Con la llegada de la revolución y el exilio de muchos cubanos, la marca comenzó a hacerse en República Dominicana pero también en Venezuela. La actual marca…

THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP: A LOONEY TUNES MOVIE Movie Review

Let’s be honest, when it comes to movies, the Looney Tunes brand has not had a very good run this decade. In 2021 there was Space Jam: A New Legacy, which turned out to be nothing but a shameless commercial for all things Warner Bros., and then there was the infamous tale of the shelved Coyote vs. Acme movie that may never see the light of day. So it’s with all of these tragedies that it’s a miracle that this movie, The Day The Earth Blew Up, even got released. (Granted through Ketchup Entertainment and not WB. themselves.) Not only that, but it’s also incredible that the end result is undeniably the best Looney Tunes ever made.

THE GOOD

What separates this movie from something like the Space Jam sequel, is that it is made by people who clearly love Looney Tunes. Despite the fact that we only have three characters, this movie stays true to who they are. Daffy Duck is more reflective of how his was when he was first introduced and before he started being paired up with Bugs Bunny. He’s a complete lunatic, he’s overly confident, and has a tendency to cause more trouble than what they have to deal with in the moment! Meanwhile, Porky Pig is the more sensible of the two, complete with his famous stutter. Eric Bauza does a fantastic job voicing both characters and much like Mel Blanc long before, it’s incredible how many of the Looney Tunes characters he’s able to voice to perfection. Petunia Pig is also a fun character. She manages to be the most sensible of the group, while also being crazy and…dare I say looney in her own way!

The animation is spectacular. It’s great to not only see classic 2D animation, but also 2D animation that was made for a big screen experience. The last two animated movies that I can think of that look like they were hand drawn are The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim or Teen Titans Go! To the Movies. In both instances, you watch those movies and question the reason to release them in theaters. The animation in The Day The Earth Blew Up is not only smooth and well detailed, but it also amplifies the insanity and comedy. One of my favorite gags is with Farmer Jim, the adopted father of both Daffy and Porky. While our two main characters are fully animated, Farmer Jim is mostly a static drawing played for full comic effect.

The movie is not just hilarious in how it captures the spirit of Looney Tunes, but also how it works as a parody of the alien invasion movies of the 1950s. From mind control, alien goo, 50s style flying saucers, and the title of the film itself, this movie is a perfect homage to those old school science fiction movies. However it’s mixed with that very chaotic tone that you expect from Looney Tunes and features enough twists that make the movie feel fresh and funny! The big masterplan of the alien invader is ridiculous but makes sense within the nature of the film!

OVERALL

This is about as good as a Looney Tunes movie can get and the flaws it has, aren't worth mentioning! I never got the appeal of Space Jam, and this is coming from a kid of the 90s. That movie should’ve been my childhood, but it just doesn’t work for me. As for Looney Tunes: Back in Action, I have a soft spot for that movie, but even then I can’t deny that The Day The Earth Blew Up blows that one out of the water. It’s got spectacular animation, it’s fateful to the source material, the characters are fun, and it’s jam-packed with jokes that made me laugh hard! Not to mention it has a lot of heart when it comes to Daffy and Porky’s friendship. It’s a reminder of what made Looney Tunes work in the first place and why they will endure until the end of time despite David Zaslav’s hatred for them!

Warner Bros is negotiating big sale of shelved ‘Coyote Vs. Acme’ movie.

Gareth West’s distributor-financier Ketchup Entertainment is negotiating an all-rights acquisition in the $50M range for the animated-live-action hybrid project. Ketchup last year rescued the same studio’s The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie.

The pact isn’t finalised and there’s still a chance it doesn’t make but it’s heading in the right direction. Should it get over the line, the film would get a theatrical release in 2026.

The Day The Earth Blew UP: A Looney Tunes Movie Review: It's Colossal! Stupendous! One Might Go as far as to say not at all mediocre.

Minor Spoilers Ahead

It's a miracle that I got to sit down and watch this film with my friend Cory sunday. In a time when Warner Bros Discovery is in a constant state of burning itself down for the insurance money where anything and everything animated not shielded by James Gunn or Adult Swim is getting ignored and barely promoted at best or thrown in a vault for the writeoff at worst, it's a miracle on top of a miracle that this film actually got released.

It was a struggle to get there: Director Pete Browngardt, in an interview the Hollywood Reporter, mentioned he felt the film was almost cancelled no less than four times and even when finished, had to shop itself around like an indie movie. With the streaming market slowly collapsing in on itself, no streamer wanted it. It was only through a great debut at the Annercy Animation Festival that the film got picked up by Indie distrbutor ketchup entertainment and even then only got held over an extra week by popular demand, a demand that will hopefully only grow. This is a film that very easily could've been at worst lost media and at best leaked out by some hero for all to see.

Thankfully.. we got here. The film came out in theaters and has gotten such a postivie reception that an attempt to remove it from theaters this very wedsday was pushed back and it'll likely stay as long as it sells tickets. Given I saw this film in a packed theater, that's a very likely proposition.

The Day the Earth Blew Up spins out of Looney Tunes Cartoons, a series of shorts released either in front of films , at festivals or on HBO Max in the style of the classic era but with the zany sensiblities of 90's cartoon netowrk. Given showrunner Pete Browngardt, who pitched the job, created Uncle Grandpa, that isn't a huge suprise but what i've seen are solid, fun shorts with the right spirit.

You can feel Browngardt and crew's love for looney tunes: there's tons of little nods to their history in there: Daffy and Porky's search for a job is styled as a short complete with title cards and old timey aspect ratio, Daffy does a very bugs-esque wild take, we get a gorgeous art deco musical sequence set to "powerhouse" aka that stock factory music I can't describe in print but you've certainly heard, and the finale has possibly the best use of the Looney Tunes theme in the whole franchise and there's a bunch more I didn't even spot.

The Day the Earth Blew Up gets the tone perfect: It has what you'd expect from the classic shorts: rapid fire jokes, one after another often getting crap passed the radar at a master level, the best bit of adult humor being Daffy telling the main villian he can probe them in an increasingly long list of places including "A truck stop bathroom" but he can't take their freedom. The film has great pacing on it's joke, letting the plot breathe when needed but cramming in as many as possible. I was in tears at times, with a truly perfect needle drop of Bryan Adams treacly "Everything I Do", an awkard animation walk cycle for the ages, Daffy thinking our main export is smog, and an overly long crashing gag that rivals "Dental Plan, Lisa Needs Braces' in hilariously over done gags. I could honestly just list punchlines for several paragraphs, but it's best you see this for yourself. The hurricane of jokes i'll watch over and over again is held up by a simple but shockingly strong plot: Porky and Daffy are orphans who were raised at adopted brothers who call themselves friends for some reason, raised under the watchful eye of Farmer Jim, a matte painting whose only animation is in his synchro vox styled lips. The two eventually loose him when he just... goes into the clouds one day and get by on their own.

Naturally for this kind of picture, they soon encounter trouble: a meteor grazes their house, and to pass inspection they have to pay money they don't have. A series of hilariously failed jobs, sight gags and one murder later and our heroes are seemingly screwed till they meet Petunia. Petunia is a looney tune whose barely been used a lot of the time, mostly there to be Porky's love intrest and.. tha'ts about it.

The film keeps up this streak as i'ts love at first sight in a genuinely charming scene as we cut between porky's lovestruck vision of her, with a glow behind her and perfect hair.. and the beaten down real petunia fresh out of the rain and exausted. It's a sweet moment and the two have impecable chemistry. Petunia instantly bonds with her future boyfriend and his brother and is given her own goals outside of a cute as hell romance plot: to make a perfect gum flavor since the company she works for is content to just coast on the popular ones, trying squid ink, rotten eggs and making daffy explode at one point, which he takes well. He's a champ that daffy and a solid wing man.

Our heroes get a factory job that works for once.. just as an alien that what came from outer space decides to conquer earth using gum. It's up to our heroes to save the earth. The problem is.. Porky is slowly wearing of daffy, feeling he screws things up, worrying about Daffy tanking his relationship and later tanking the world with his antics. What's neat about it is it's shockingly nuanced: Normally when Daffy's in conflict, he's usually just.. an asshole. That's the version I grew up with: a selfish prima donna constantly envious of bugs. Sometimes he's right to be pissed, see back in action, most of the time he's just a selfish weasel who the universe punishes for his hubris.

Here he's been recanted perfectly: This daffy has his usually intentional selfishness and deep seated insecurity left out. He's instead similar to his The Looney Tunes Show Version (Aka my faviorite daffy), a weirdo in his own little world, but without any of that daffy's danny mcbride character level pettyniess. This Daffy instead comes off midly neurodivergent, not really getting social cues or why attacking the neighbor while buck naked and accusing their employer of an evil conspiracy might be a bad idea long term. He's a loveable weirdo who still has daffy's wit , timing and accuracey, but is also a screw loose.

Porky's straight edged nature, instead of making him fade into the background as it can, works as a perfect contrast. He loves his brother but is frustrated by his antics and slowly let's that resintment boil over. It reminds me of my relationship with my own sibling: We love each other.. but being that diffrent from one another and in my case sometimes incosiderate can be a lot. You get why Porky's frustrated.. yet you understand he's overblowing things. Daffy means well, sets porky up with petunia and is a generally kind guy. He's just all together looney and tha'ts okay. Porky learns to accept that and Daffy learns to gain some awareness. And Petunia.. dosen't have an arc but she's damn near perfect, Porky's a lucky man, and she's a really fun character that I hope sets the standard for her, a woman of science.. who will also nearly taste mind controlling gum out of curosity and is more concerned with eating the bland standard gum than the fact she was taken by aliens. The performances from voice acting vetrans Eric Bauza as both main characters and Candi Milo as Petunia are incredible and both should be kept as the characters voices. The way Eric just flawlessly acts off himself in the bulk of the film is astonishing.

The rest of the cast is small, and it works: the film's an invasion film leaning into a retros ci fi astetic with some 80s body horror thrown in. There's the invasion of the body snatchers refrence you'd expect, some flamethrowers the thing style, but it never leans too heavily into it's refrences. Which is something the Looney Tunes can do well

But isn't needed here. There's really only 7 major characters, the rest extras and what have you: our power trio, the alien, a scientest woh the alien brainwashes into his dopey minon, the house inspector and wayne knight as the mayor, who really needed more to do. It's a film first and formost about it's main characters and it's jokes and it works. I'd love a more character focused bugs bunny movie or tweety being banished to the styigan pit he was spawned from where he belongs.

The film is pretty much perfectly paced: it moves from set piece to set piece fast and furious, lingering just long enough and having the slower parts mostly to give characters depth. It's a gorgeous film too, with tons of great "camera angles", and plays with the animations. It's expressive, bouncy and a joy to watch. It's been too long since a 2d animated film on this level was put on a big screen and I hope we get more.

While Looney Tunes future is uncertain, a nice way of saying the theatrical shorts were removed from Max and I fear for my boys I really sincerly truly do, this film is an excellent testement to them, a shining beacon of absurdity I badly needed in a time where nothing is truly certain, things suck and like the Looney Tunes we face a not so promising future. But as long as we have daffy and truckstop bathrooms, I think we might make it out okay.
