thoughts on Daffy in Wackyland? and the original, for that matter

Daffy in Wackyland thoughts: IIIIIIIIII LLLLOOOOOVVVEEEDDDD ITTTTTTT!!!!! i was gonna drop my Letterboxd review for it here, but Letterboxd evidently wiped the short and re-uploaded it and my review is lost?? lame! but i have some observations from when i watched it for the first time that i'll relay here:

I KNOW THESE ARE KINDA DIFFICULT TO GATHER FROM OOC SCREENSHOTS so the jist is: I LOVE THIS CARTOON. it has a profound, personal significance to me not unlike The Great Piggy Bank Robbery or Daffy Doodles. i'm a fervent lover of stop motion and puppetry, i'm shedding my humbleness and reticence to declare myself Daffy's #1 fan and am more prepared to protect my title (aka: i like the duck), Porky in Wackyland is a short i revere a lot--more on that soon--and i'm very stricken by the decision to do this short in stop motion, considering Bob Clampett's background in puppetry. perfect way to homage him. there are some pitfalls that this short runs into that i allude to above, such as the typical LTC Achilles heel of too much dialogue, but i think it's able to work contextually with Daffy here, as i also mentioned above

the visuals are the main focal point for me, and MY GOD THEY DELIVERED SO MUCH. i'm also realizing i never did get around to drawing fanart for this... soon!!! but the color and vibrance and multi-media!! it's so unspeakably inspiring. i especially love how freeform it feels, it really stands out as its own independent style and i love that. feels very fitting for Daffy, who's a character born out of breaking the mold.

the moment i watched the short i was SO UPSET that i couldn't reach out and touch the Daffy puppet. someone described him as a well loved puppet and it almost made me cry. and then, back in April when my friend was giving me a tour of the WB studio, they had some puppets on display!! i was SO SHOCKED because she had sent me pics of it, but i assumed it was a temporary display--needless to say i ran up to this thing to get pictures from all angles LOL

I REALLY LOVE THIS SHORT. so much more than i can accurately give away right now, and i'm very bummed at my Letterboxd review having gotten wiped because that would be perfect to default back on in showing just how ferociously i love this cartoon. like the Porky and Daffy movie, it's one of those things that quite literally feels catered to Me, Eliza Duck Twacy, specifically, and i am not just saying that to be funny LOL. thank you for the reminder that i need to give this a rewatch! i actually think i have the whole short saved to my phone because i was so desperate to have it on hand

Porky in Wackyland thoughts: LOVE THIS CARTOON! so there was a very brief period in October 2019 where my interest in LT waned and i thought it'd just be a passing fixation--stuff like Chowder and Wander Over Yonder were catching my attention, i was moving on... and then i watched Porky in Wackyland for the first time and. well, i'm answering your ask, ain't i?

this review is a few years old, but you can read my more in-depth analysis and write-up of it here! but it's another cartoon i feel very deeply connected to. it's so unabashedly Clampettian, and as a Bob Clampett fanatic that's of course very important to me. it's filled with so many of his cartoonistic self indulgences that evidently Leon Schlesinger dubbed the cartoon "Bobby's wet dream", which is hilarious--but i adore the newspaper cartooning influence in the character designs and cartooning, the unabashed whimsy of it all, the hot jazz soundtrack. it's very cutting edge for its time and is a short i feel is a bit too easy to take for granted today. it's extremely charming, to the point that all of the attempts to remake it, sans Daffy in Wackyland, really flounder. i'm not a fan of Dough for the Dodo (though the ending is amusingly cynical, as per tradition for Friz Freleng) and i can proudly say that Tin Pan Alley Cats is one of Bob Clampett's worst cartoons, even removed of the racism element which is impossible, and so i'll let you wonder for yourself as to what that means. Daffy in Wackyland succeeds because it's its own thing and understood that it was futile to try and "remake" it more faithfully. this is because the original is something only Clampett could have done, because it is so personally his and attuned to his sensibilities.

the exception to this is this lovely comic blurb from Stephen DeStefano... god i wish he drew the LT characters more because the instances in which he has are some of my favorites ever

this layout also makes me feel some sort of way. i really love this cartoon

i thought he had boobs sorry

partial thumbnails for a comic idea that are making me laugh. essence of Dafpork.

@charlotteheehee absolutely. i've always assumed this because Porky has been a cop more times than is coincidental, but i recently just watched this Dogfather short (a DePatie-Freleng cartoon, as in Friz Freleng, andddd... well. very much Not the pinnacle of Freleng's career) where the three little pigs are cops which absolutely clinches it for me.

i've always been saddened by this lingo because pigs are too cute to have such associations. Porky included. but also, in terms of Porky's semi consistency as a cop, it is really funny so i'll allow it

in fact, one of the Dell comic artists drew this, so:

Hi there 🌱 I hope you are doing well. My name is Naser, and I’m from Gaza. I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable, but I wanted to share a piece of my story — because right now, it’s the only way I know to try and survive.

This war has changed everything. I lost my mother and my sister. Our home is gone. What used to be a normal life — school, family meals, laughter — has been replaced by fear, rubble, and silence.

Now, I’m displaced with my three younger brothers. I’ve become their protector, their parent, their hope. We sleep side by side and I try to make them feel safe, even when I’m scared too.

We are trying to raise funds to rebuild our lives — to find a safe place, to go back to school, to have something to believe in again. I dream of going to university. My brothers have their own dreams too — of being a doctor, an engineer, just being kids again.

If you’re able to support us by donating 💌 or even just sharing our campaign 🔁, it would truly mean the world. Every small act of kindness brings us a little closer to hope.

Thank you for taking the time to read this 🙏 And if you'd rather not receive messages like this, please just let me know and I won’t reach out again.

Hello, my name is Saja. I’m a mother to a beautiful 8-month-old baby girl, writing this from a place I never imagined I’d be — surrounded by destruction, holding on to my daughter while the world around us falls apart. 💔

We used to have a home. 🏚 A simple place, but it was filled with love. Now it’s gone. What remains are memories, silence, and an overwhelming fear of what tomorrow may bring.

Each day, I wake up not knowing if we will make it through the next. My daughter should be learning to walk, to smile at strangers, to feel safe in her world — but instead, she’s learning to live in the middle of a war zone. 🕊️

I’m not writing this to ask for pity. I’m sharing our truth because silence won’t protect us. Maybe, through this message, someone will hear us — and care. 🤍

If you feel moved to share our story or offer support, it would mean more than words can say. Every kind act ripples outward. ✨
