Coyote vs ACME

Desmond1979

I heard about this new movie, which mixes real life with animation, from an online US friend.

It seems apt, in today's claim-happy society, that Wile E Coyote should file a Lawsuit; for his failures to catch Roadrunner.

  • Well, I've seen it now. It was brilliant! One of the best films to come out this decade, I'd say! It was really cathartic!

    It's also really interesting how many real world parallels there are to the practice of planned obsolescence used by big companies and how many have been taken to court over right to repair etc.

    I also found myself relating HEAVILY to Wile E. Coyote as someone who's been left feeling bitter about being let down time and time again. The guy is like a crazed ball of bitter resentment and impatience in this film, and it's entertaining as hell.
