Why bother getting rid of Pepe if you were just going to include the Droogs anyway?

[genbu_no_miko24]

lol it really does all come down to if people make a stink about it. Most people are familiar with Pepe Le Pew than they are of the droogs.

It's all performative 🙄

[kidviciousdonna]

I'm honestly really excited for this now after the trailer.

LOVE IT, I LIVE FOR POP CULTURE REFERENCES IN OTHER MEDIUMS!

I got emotional seeing the flinstones and yogi bear. I get why people would be turned off by the droogs from clockwork orange being there but I get it from a pop culture POV. I've never seen the movie (but am aware of the content) but I've seen that look (and specifically Alex DeLarge's look) recreated millions of times by other artists/actors.

Whoever handles The Flintstones and The Jetsons branding has really let it slide. When I was a kid growing up in the eighties/early nineties, I remember they still played the cartoons on tv (even though at the time they were from the fifties and sixties, I believe). Even those old Flintstones campgrounds are a mess. I saw the one near the Grand Canyon few years ago and thought it looked like a serial killer hangout. Archie has managed to stay relevant through the decades. It's a shame they couldn't make The Flintstones and The Jetsons appeal to kids today. What kid isn't curious about space or dinosaurs?

[genbu_no_miko24]

Yeah I was thinking how a lot of those cartoons from the 40-80s had a lot of revivals and reboots in the 90s but not so much now.

I LOVED The Jetsons as a kid (fellow 80s baby/kid) but maybe it's for the best I can't watch it on TV now. I feel like all the optimism for "the future" people had then would just make me cry now. Not unlike Back to the Future Part 2.

If WB were smart they'd do a Scooby Doo movie that has them investigating the disappearances of WB toon characters from across the toon universe. Their own version of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
