It didn't do very well.
>Loonatics
Unleashed generated some criticism among various animation fans for its
assumed reinterpretation of the classic Looney Tunes characters. Some
original Looney Tunes fans found the concept, style and tone of
Loonatics distasteful. Specifically, detractors believed the idea to be
a cheap "extreme" marketing ploy to appeal to a demographic at the
expense of the classic Warner Bros. characters. Producers explained
that Loonatics Unleashed is simply part of the Looney Tunes characters'
continuing evolution in contemporary pop culture.[citation needed]
>Another
issue arose with "Buzz Bunny," the original name of Ace Bunny. Dutch
freelance designer and illustrator Metin Seven had copyrighted a
character of the same name.[1]
>After
complaints about the original preproduction character models'
appearances, including an Internet petition of protest that was started
by 11-year-old Thomas Adams, the producers of the series revised and
softened the characters' appearances to make them appear less
menacing.[2] |
