Coyote vs Acme (2026)

[WingedSerpent]

I was able to catch an early showing of this movie and I'm really glad I did. This was a surprisingly good movie.

You may have heard the story behind it. It was filmed, but the WB decided to not release it in order to right it off as a tax break. Until another distributer pick it up to release after massive fan response wanted it shown.

The story goes into a few interesting directions. Some of which actually feel like a reflection of what would go on in a world where cartoons and humans co-habituate.

For the most part the animation works.  A lot of the main characters look good and there's plenty of call backs to the original shorts. There are a few that don't work. Foghorn Leghorne is a partially noticeable as a cell-shaded CGI model instead of a cartoon.

I also though all the actors did a good job. Will Forte and John Cena for me are very hit or miss. Cena, especially because he's one of those actors I can't see as someone other than himself. But I liked him here.

I highly recommend seeing this film.
