I recognize an alarming amount of classical music from watching Bugs Bunny

    I just brought my 8 year old son to see Coyote vs Acme, and he fucking loved it. We watched Roadrunner cartoons to lead up to it and he almost died laughing. This was the first he'd ever heard of Looney Tunes

    I had the opportunity to check out the bugs bunny symphony experience this past April and what a wonderful experience!

    Florida Orchestra killed it.

    I've grown up loving most of those classical tracks. rhapsody rabbit with Franz liszt's Hungarian rhapsody no.2 is great. (no 3 is also worth checking out... maybe even 6 too.)

    i understand that in rabbit of Seville, that piece was actually written for that show. so phenomenal works were being done for those animation pieces - labors of love.

    but those works transcended time.

    They reprinted a bunch of EC war comics from the 1950s.

    One issue was a special about the Civil War. One story was a biography of Lincoln; another explained the North's strategy; another was about how Stonewall Jackson died.

    A comic book for 10 year olds in the 1950s had more solid information that most High School classes today.
