According to Jerry Beck, he tried to develop other projects with the Terry characters, Heckle and Jeckle (for MTV) and Tom Terrific (for Nick Jr). But those plans never came into fruition. Beck tried to revive Sidney the Elephant (until it was changed to Hornswiggle)

The unspoken beauty of Looney Tunes is that they work on so many different levels and age groups that the literary/pop cultural references themselves don't hinder your enjoyment. If anything, they spark curiosity and appreciation

I think this quote from Thad Komorowski perfectly summarizes Tom & Jerry as a whole for me. "It was the Hollywood cartoon at its purest"

I might be biased here because I'm so used to those redesigns of Dexter that I personally don't mind it.

Now that I actually think about it. Most of the scenes in 'Nine Lives' wouldn't look too out of place in a Pink Panther or Dogfather cartoon

Okay, so there was no Janet Jackson or Diana Ross in this movie, but we got Woody Woodpecker, Mickey Mouse, Peter Pan, Charlie Chaplin, and Michael Jackson in the same film. Now that's a crossover

I kinda wished The Cuphead Show was more like this. Not to stifle the creativity of the crew making it, but I believe you can get so much mileage out of those old cartoons like Felix and Koko the Clown.

This got me thinking about other animated movies that were also made with very little money and time, and yet the filmmakers took advantage of that and made something artistically rich and pleasing.

I find it kinda interesting that this was the last solo Porky short to be directed by Chuck Jones. The later shorts featuring Porky would have him be paired with either Daffy or Sylvester.

After the release of "Greetings Bait" from 1943, producer Leon Schlesinger forbade the directors from using the underwater ripple glass effect because it was too expensive. As a response, Friz Freleng and Bob Clampett used the effect (pointlessly) in their cartoons.
