Welcome back to Manga Mavericks @ Movies! The show where we don’t just talk smack about movies, we celebrate them! What’s up, Mavericks? Lum and VLord are here to chew bubblegum and talk Looney Tunes, and we’re all out of gum! Luckily, we still have plenty to chew on, as we’re discussing the first ever fully original 2D animated Looney Tunes movie, The Day the Earth Blew Up! Originally slated for a streaming-only release on Max, and then put at risk of being written off by WBD altogether, the film was picked up for distribution by Ketchup Entertainment, who gave it a wide theatrical release in March, and have just put it out on home video, with a streaming release on Max planned for June 27th! We’re so glad Ketchup saved this film, because its gorgeous animation and art deserved to be seen on the biggest screen possible! We discuss how director Pete Browngardt’s delightful throwback to 1940s Bob Clampett-directed Looney Tunes shorts and 1950s sci-fi creature features is a fantastic culmination of his work on the Looney Tunes shorts over the past few years, bringing Daffy back to his wacky screwball characterization, and exploring a genuinely sweet brotherly relationship between Porky and Daffy as they team up to thwart an alien invader who seemingly plans to “blow up” the Earth using gum-chewing, bubble-blowing zombies! Before that, Lum interviews Candi Milo, a venerable VA who stars as this film’s version of Petunia Pig, reimagined as an eccentric flavor scientist who is as explosive an on-screen presence as the gum she creates! Candi shares how she approached her performance as Petunia, her favorite gags and moments with the character, how she played off of Eric Bauza’s performance as Porky and Daffy and created her own version of Porky’s stutter, alongside lots more highlights from the recording process and her experiences with the Looney Tunes franchise! So push the play button and pull the volume up and stick with us as we merrily go ‘round talking all about this looney powerhouse of a film until the merry-go-round breaks down!
