Mine is either the magician who screws over the Opra guy, or one of the things of tomorrow searies.

He made some of the early Tom & Jerry cartoons. A very funny and Wacked individual. You guys read too much. You need tv.

Yeah, the 'Opera' one is pretty good. Most of the '**** of Tomorrow' shows are too. Chuck Jones and Tex Avery are untouchable in the classical sense; everything else is just a fad.

I've seen every one of the old cartoons, but I lose track of the directors. I think I'd have to go with the Bullfighter Droopy one, where he's trying to land that hot chick in the picture.

 

Thats a big list Mark, I had no idea he did that many! They all rule but I'll pick the baby cab and the eat em up goat

 

By the way, I did not prepare this list, so the "This one is my favorite" Repeated a million times, is not me. Also, I do recall many of these myself. The warden and spike is very memorable, plus the the slang one is also (FUCKIN FUNNY!!!) amusing material.
