Looney tunes return to the big screen in new animated film!

I think, as that link alludes to, that the wider fandom are thinking this refers to the famed Termite Terrace, which actually went a long time ago (ah, yes, the article says the 40s, I had always thought it was the 50s, when the shorts stopped and Friz and Chuck started doing their own things). So the "real" LT building was long, long gone by the time those guys and Tex came back in the 70s to reminisce about their time there.

I suppose, though, that there’s still a lot of history in the newer old building's walls, though we have lost so many other similar buildings that it’s just the way it goes, really and unfortunately, but at the end of the day it’s a block on a studio lot, and not something self-standing like Hanna-Barbera or the Chaplin/Henson lot, so WB should really be able to do what they want with it.

It’s perhaps because someone has come in recently and taken a wrecking ball to so many WB properties and practices that this has wound up getting ultra attention. As Droo says, sets and buildings are removed or repurposed all the time, but it is always a shame when the long-standing and recognisable and iconic ones go.

Sometimes, in very rare instances, social media can be used for good.

Now we must get Ketchup to rescue Holiday Haunt.

Awesome news. I hadn't thought this acquisition possible, but I'm glad I was wrong.

[Ben]

Yeah, once a tax write off, always a tax write off, it was thought.

Must have cost them a bit! Now to have them buy the Scoob film, then Batgirl, then Looney Tunes, then the whole of WB and restore things to normal service…!

[Randall]

The tax write-off was always assumed, based on Batgirl, but it's possible they held off, knowing a deal might be forthcoming. Whatever, I'm happy for all the folks that worked on the film, and us, too.

So CinemaCon they just confirmed--a new looney tunes movie is in the works! OK zaslab make up your mind. This does seem to confirm they won't be selling looney tunes if they are making a movie, but it makes the coyote and blows up thing even more confusing.

More crazy--flintstones movie and tom and jerry new animated movies animation shown as well and big screen movies!

Guess it just depends on which side of the bed he gets up from in the mornings… Cray-cray.
