Zoom And Bored
''Zoom and Bored'' is a 1957 Warner Bros. cartoon, being a part of the ''Merrie Melodies'' series and directed by Chuck Jones. The short was released on September 14, 1957, and stars Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner. The title is a play on room and board, just like the Sylvester and Tweety short '' Room and Bird''. This is one of the few shorts where the Road Runner shows a soft side for Wile E. Coyote and spares him. Plot The Coyote and Road Runner begin to chase, freezing momentarily for the credits and Latin names to be shown COYOTE: ''Famishus vulgarus'' and ROAD RUNNER: ''Birdibus zippibus''. From here, Road Runner speeds off, leaving the coyote to fall on the ground. Wile E. recovers quickly, kicks up some dust, and begins to chase Road. However, Road Runner leaves so much dust in the road that his pursuer cannot see where he is going. Eventually, except for his ears, Wile E. is completely enclosed in the dust. Road Runner pulls next to Wiley and beeps, alerting the coyote ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Charles Martin Jones (September 21, 1912 – February 22, 2002) was an American animator, painter, voice actor and filmmaker, best known for his work with Warner Bros.

Tweety
Tweety is an animated character, a yellow canary bird in the Warner Bros. ''Looney Tunes'' and '' Merrie Melodies'' series of animated cartoons. His characteristics are based on Red Skelton's famous "Junior the Mean Widdle Kid". He appeared in 46 cartoons during the golden age, made between 1942 and 1964. Personality and identity Despite the perceptions that people may hold, owing to the long eyelashes and high-pitched voice (which Mel Blanc provided), Tweety is male although his ambiguity was played with. For example, in the cartoon " Snow Business", when Granny entered a room containing Tweety and Sylvester she said: "Here I am, boys!". Another confirmation that Tweety is male comes from the cartoon ''Greedy for Tweety'' in which during a hospital stay, Granny (portrayed as a nurse) utters "Oh the poor little Tweety bird, let's makes him a little more comfortable", as she adjusts his bed. Nonetheless, a 1952 cartoon was entitled '' Ain't She Tweet''. Also, his species is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Films With Screenplays By Michael Maltese
A film, also known as a movie or motion picture, is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, emotions, or atmosphere through the use of moving images that are generally, since the 1930s, synchronized with sound and (less commonly) other sensory stimulations. Etymology and alternative terms The name "film" originally referred to the thin layer of photochemical emulsion on the celluloid strip that used to be the actual medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Many other terms exist for an individual motion-picture, including "picture", "picture show", "moving picture", "photoplay", and "flick". The most common term in the United States is "movie", while in Europe, "film" is preferred. Archaic terms include "animated pictures" and "animated photography". "Flick" is, in general a slang term, first recorded in 1926. It originates in the verb flicker, owing to the flickering appearance of early films. ...
