    I have high hopes for this. Looney Tunes Cartoons was a fantastic return to form for the Looney Tunes and it sounds like some people from that project also worked on this. I am also excited this will be a Daffy and Porky pairing rather than a Bugs Bunny vehicle.

        I don't think there's been a fully animated feature with Mickey and Co as the main characters.

        It's kind of weird to think about that these iconic characters became iconic through short films that were later broadcasted on TV (and then eventually would have TV shows made after them).

        Don't think Disney will ever be brave enough to do a feature animated film with Mickey though. Even if they developed an incredible style that would absolutely work for a feature ten years ago they're not gonna gamble on having their mascot potentially bomb at the box office.

    Q2 2024? That seems like a remarkably fast turnaround. Not too versed in Hollywood affairs, but I hope this isn't rushed on the production side and fingers crossed this is a solid project that can lead to more films down the line!
