You all who were begging to see this better be in a theater August 28th and not waiting to stream it in November or December.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

I'll buy the Blu-ray just like I did the Porky and Daffy movie. That's how I show my support.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

Looks ok. Feel like I have a moral obligation to attend. Would have to look really bad for me to skip.

Seriously. Even those that chronically wait for streaming need to suck it up and go to the theater. Everyone support this.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

Count me in! Looks fun.
Wish it was coming out earlier in the Summer so I could have taken my son before he went back to College, but I'll still go see it regardless.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

If this makes more than like $12m I'll be stunned. I think a lot of the outage over this movie a couple of years back was justified. After all, the studio was using the fact that they made a bad movie as an excuse to steal money from the American public. But at the time I didn't believe most people expressing outrage that they wouldn't get to see this movie or claiming that they definitely would have seen it in the theater.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

The last Ketchup/WB Looney Toon release made $15M total worldwide

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/releas...ef_=bo_tt_gr_1

and it opened on over 2800 screens week 1 in the U.S.

I don't buy that there is a real audience for this. The outrage that it was cancelled was knee jerk hyperbole. No one was looking forward to this movie until it was cancelled initially.

It's not going to make the money back ($70m?) that Ketchup paid WB for it.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

This looks really fun, but I highly doubt that this will make its money back. It wasn't to cancel it, it was wrong to greenlight the movie.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

The trailer looks pretty good and makes the movie look interesting...if you have seen the classic Roadrunner shorts. It's my understanding the Looney Tunes brand is barely alive for those under 25 outside of Bugs and Lola Bunny. I hope I am wrong but this movie may not make much in theaters.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

Whoever has been in charge of the Looney Tunes brand has done a terrible job. Bugs Bunny and crew used to be huge especially in the 80's and 90's and now they're almost nonexistent. they used to be neck to neck with Disney.

Re: Coyote vs Acme (2026)

This looks fun and I am glad it's being released, but I am surprised it wasn't envisioned as a direct to streaming release. As others have mentioned, Looney Tunes are borderline obscure these days. Hell, most people didn't even notice the joke in The Flash (all five of us that even watched that movie).
