Original price was: $27.95.Current price is: $17.50.

Description

Looney Tunes cartoons are the high-water mark of American animated comedy and inspired such giants of the cinema as Mel Brooks, Steven Spielberg, and George Lucas. In this unauthorized biography we learn about the stories of famous characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Yosemite Sam, Porky Pig, Tweety, Sylvester, and more. Discover how a band of directors and artists working in the shadow of Walt Disney (and often inspired by them) created a wild, visually stunning brand of comedy that is still with us today.

You will also learn about how Bugs Bunny was largely inspired by Disney’s Max Hare, which was in turn inspired by Aesop’s Fables.  This kind of information could only be found in an unauthorized biography, because they could not write that in an official book due to potential lawsuits!
