The latest Vince Guaraldi Peanuts soundtrack is It's A Mystery, Charlie Brown; I never thought this special's soundtrack would ever be released, let alone released w/a special magnifying glass to help you find clues in the packaging that lead you to a hidden track that didn't make it into the LP

Go see #CoyoteVsACME this weekend! It's fun, and it is a movie miracle that the film wasn't destroyed by executives who have no respect for comedy or animation or Cinema.

Day 34:
"Woolen Under Where"
May 11, 1963

Chuck Jones is FIRED; the final Wolf/Sheepdog film has him relegated to a mere story credit, as Phil Monroe & Richard Thompson capably take over directing

HUGE surprise at the top of this one!

A very sloppy modern re-telling of the story of ICARUS in 4-and-a-half minutes, excepted from a recent edition of CONNOR RATLIFF presents THE ACTING CLASS at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York City, June 2026.

Filmed by Tom Levin,
using a non-IMAX camera

“Watching Ratliff play with his craft in the moment is a fascinating meta exercise, framed as an acting class but really evolving into so much more.” - CONSEQUENCE

"Beep Prepared"

The only film in the Coyoteverse ever to be nominated for an Academy Award! (Which really kinda sucks, since it isn't quite as good as almost any of the Maltese-written ones!)

This seems insane to me.
Samantha Morton says she hasn’t had any work since filming ‘THE ODYSSEY’.

“I’ve got really good agents & a manager, but at the end of the day, I’m 49. I do believe I’m a good actor, [but] there are other good actors out there.”

Gonna take a quick detour today to talk about Chuck Jones' "rules" for the Road-Runner series. These were published in his book, Chuck Amuck, and every now and then they go viral. These rules were all made up by Jones after the fact.

4 yeara after "Operation: Rabbit," the 2nd Coyote/Bugs short is even more relevant now than it was when it was released -- a cautionary tale about A.I. from 70 years ago!
