‘The Day the Earth Blew Up’ Brings Classic Looney Tunes Mayhem to Annecy

World Premiere of Warner's Animated Film Draws Raves for Reviving Cartoony Spirit

Warner Bros. Animation’s “The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Film” made a looney and raucous landing at the Annecy Animation Festival, with its world premiere drawing enthusiastic praise from attendees for recapturing the unbridled spirit of classic Termite Terrace cartoons.

Directed by Peter Browngardt (Looney Tunes Cartoons) in his theatrical debut, the 2D animated feature follows Porky Pig and Daffy Duck as they comically attempt to thwart an alien invasion while raising funds to save their home from demolition. The hapless duo’s misadventures also involve a new character, the socially awkward scientist Petunia Pig, serving as a love interest for the stuttering Porky.

Speaking ahead of the raucous premiere, Browngardt and Warner Animation president Sam Register stressed their desire to pay homage to the iconic franchise’s irreverent legacy through both animation style and comedic sensibilities. That reverence for the Looney Tunes’ anarchic roots resonated with the Annecy crowd comprised of animation professionals and students.

“It was nice to see how much you can push animation, to see how far you can push a key pose and make it click,” raved animator Diletta. “When I saw the Warner Brothers treatment, it really brought me back to when I was a kid.”

Others highlighted how the creative team deftly married vintage aesthetics with modern irreverence. “We love how they brought the old style to the modern era,” said character designer Mario. “It was really thematically tight; everything was really well brought together.”

Particular praise was lavished on the film’s standout character Farmer Jim, the gruff adoptive dad of Porky and Daffy. “The walk cycle for Farmer Jim was incredible,” marveled character designer Deivy. “We were laughing a lot at the Farmer Jim scenes – the animation is really good.”

Beyond the visuals, many simply delighted in the film’s pursuit of pure cartoony nonsense. “I love the random jokes all over the place,” said character animator Natalia. “I expected it to be very Looney Tuney, and I got what I expected.”

With its unabashed indulgence in classic animation maximalism clearly resonating, “The Day the Earth Blew Up” has stoked excitement for its upcoming theatrical release while offering hope for a 2D animated revival. As Santiago summed up: “That’s what animation is about; it’s to have fun…It makes me wish more people wanted to watch 2D animation because you can’t do something like this in 3D.”
