Warner Bros. Pictures Animation arrived at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival with a bold message: the era of canceled releases and corporate caution may be coming to an end. In this episode, we break down WBPA’s ambitious new feature slate, from The Cat in the Hat and Bad Fairies to Oh, the Places You’ll Go!, Prehistoria, Margie Claus, Dynamic Duo, Hello Kitty, and The Lunar Chronicles.

We also discuss the newly announced Powerpuff Girls movie, potential future projects involving Tom and Jerry, ThunderCats, and Meerkats, and whether Bye Bye Bunny could eventually return.

On the Looney Tunes front, we take a closer look at Daffy Season, the first theatrical Looney Tunes short in more than a decade, which will play before The Cat in the Hat. We explore its soccer-themed premise, CGI-rendered characters, classic catchphrase humor, and the significance of Warner Bros. Animation reconnecting with the legacy of Termite Terrace.

The DC animation slate is just as packed, with updates on My Adventures with Green Lantern, DC Super Powers, Krypto, Starfire!, Mister Miracle, Knightfall Trilogy, Joker: Laugh Riot, and the upcoming Absolute Batman animated series from comic writer Scott Snyder. We also discuss Adventure Time: Bubblegum and Marceline, Genndy Tartakovsky’s Conan the Barbarian, and the continuing expansion of Warner Bros. Animation’s television universe.

Plus, we react to the latest Coyote vs. Acme 101% debut on RT and what this new slate could mean for Warner Bros.’ future in animation.

Where have you been this summer?

This week's podcast is all about gambling and how it has infiltrated our daily lives thanks to mobile gaming, betting apps and the accessibility of casino like games targeted toward kids. 

Together with author, Anita Ondine Smith, we traverse the tricky landscape of the gambling world with Bugs Bunny as our guide and his run-ins with gambling throughout the franchise.

It was such a privilege to host Anita in this conversation around her book and journey.
