Scrambled Aches
''Scrambled Aches'' is a 1957 Warner Bros. '' Looney Tunes'' cartoon directed by Chuck Jones. The short was released on January 26, 1957, and stars Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner. The title is a pun on scrambled eggs. Plot Wile E. Coyote (with the mock genus/species name in faux-Latin ''Eternalii Famishiis'') and the Road Runner (''Tastyus Supersonicus'') are conducting their routine chase along the twisty roads in the desert. As Wile E. closes in on the Road Runner, a 4-way intersection is reached and the Road Runner takes a left turn. Wile E. misses the turn and, as he brakes himself - digging himself into the dirt - he does not notice a "DANGER BRIDGE OUT" sign. Thus, he falls off the edge of the plateau, creating a coyote-shaped hole in the ground below. He emerges from the hole already planning his next scheme. 1. Thinking simple, Wile E. attempts to merely trip the Road Runner. He uses a fake coyote foot/partial leg, to avoid unpleasant repercussions on himself, but ...

Dog Latin
Dog Latin or cod Latin is a phrase or jargon that imitates Latin, often by "translating" English words (or those of other languages) into Latin by conjugating or declining them as if they were Latin words. Dog Latin is usually a humorous device mocking scholarly seriousness. It can also mean a poor-quality attempt at writing genuine Latin. History Examples of this predate even Shakespeare, whose 1590s play, ''Love's Labour's Lost'', includes a reference to dog Latin: Thomas Jefferson mentioned dog Latin by name in 1815: Examples * ''Illegitimi non carborundum'', interpreted as 'Don't let the bastards grind you down'. * ''Semper ubi sub ubi'' is unintelligible as Latin, but translates word for word as 'always where under where', interpreted as 'always wear underwear'. * A once-common schoolboy doggerel which, though very poor Latin, would have done a tolerable job of reinforcing the rhythms of Latin hexameters: :Insofar as this specimen can be translated, it is as follo ...

Films With Screenplays By Michael Maltese
A film also called a movie, motion picture, moving picture, picture, photoplay or (slang) flick is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images. These images are generally accompanied by sound and, more rarely, other sensory stimulations. The word "cinema", short for cinematography, is often used to refer to filmmaking and the film industry, and to the art form that is the result of it. Recording and transmission of film The moving images of a film are created by photographing actual scenes with a motion-picture camera, by photographing drawings or miniature models using traditional animation techniques, by means of CGI and computer animation, or by a combination of some or all of these techniques, and other visual effects.

Animated Films Without Speech
Animation is a method by which still figures are manipulated to appear as moving images. In traditional animation, images are drawn or painted by hand on transparent celluloid sheets to be photographed and exhibited on film. Today, most animations are made with computer-generated imagery (CGI). Computer animation can be very detailed 3D animation, while 2D computer animation (which may have the look of traditional animation) can be used for stylistic reasons, low bandwidth, or faster real-time renderings. Other common animation methods apply a stop motion technique to two- and three-dimensional objects like paper cutouts, puppets, or clay figures. A cartoon is an animated film, usually a short film, featuring an exaggerated visual style. The style takes inspiration from comic strips, often featuring anthropomorphic animals, superheroes, or the adventures of human protagonists. Especially with animals that form a natural predator/prey relationship (e.g. cats and mice, coyot ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
