Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Helloturia I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . this animated short in 1995, according to the closing credits of the version that I just watched. What is it about MY FAVORITE DUCK that spoke to our parents in the late 1900s, and possibly still speaks to our 21st Century Generations? When I took 20th Century American History, I vividly remember the part about Johnny Cochran getting his client President Bill (the old dude that's now Hillary's husband) off on an impeachment charge by waving a Jumbo Cigar at the Monica gal and rhyming, "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit!" Washington, Lincoln, Crazy Horse, and the other faces on Mount Rushmore NEVER could have imagined a Topsy-Turvy America in which the Fate of the Free World hung upon a stain on a Blue Dress. But Porky Pig certainly would, as Daffy gets him so discombobulated that he TWICE mistakes watery deeps for open air (and later perceives sky high as solid ground) during MY FAVORITE DUCK. Today, of course, a proved pawn and debtor to the Russian KGB kingpin--who's married himself to a foreign porn star--and who's widely considered to be History's only television game show host nuttier than Bob Barker, is about to gain control of America's nuclear bombs in the Oval Office. Daffy Duck would say, "I told you so."

Lee Eisenberg Maybe there's nothing particularly new in "My Favorite Duck", but how can you not like to see Daffy irk Porky? True, we see this so many times, that this may come across as boring, but Daffy's antics - ranging from zany to sadistic - and Porky's reactions more than make up for it. In my opinion at least, the highlight is the "down here" scene. But the surprise ending is also pretty cool. They sure must have had fun filming this cartoon."That, my friend, is a matter of opinion." Well, I don't see how someone could not consider this cartoon a masterpiece. Another great one for the crowd behind the Looney Tunes cartoons.

bob the moo Porky Pig is out for a camping trip in the woods when he comes across a crazy duck. Porky's patience is pushed to the limit but, as Daffy points out, duck hunting season is closed and it's a $500 fine for even hurting a duck…..a fact that Daffy is happy to exploit.Daffy is one of my favourite characters mainly because I like him in almost all his incarnations – be he the crazy duck or the bitter, twisted duck. Here he is the manic crazy duck who goes hooting over the horizon, and it works well. The plot sees Daffy just trying to wind Porky up, the film does what you expect it to and the punch line is pretty obvious.However the actual action is very funny and is totally made by a great performance from Daffy – he sets the mood of the film. The downside of the film is the animation quality on the characters themselves. Porky looks really basic and like he was drawn without as much care and attention as normal, but Daffy looks fine and the backgrounds are all OK.Overall this is a great short if you are a fan of Daffy in his manic state. Crazy ducks = good fun in my book, so I really liked this!

rgforest In this cartoon, Daffy hasn't "grown up" yet. He doesn't have the character flaws like greed and vanity we came to love; he's just a troublemaker, another tool for the artists to use to explore their craft.And explore they do! Gravity, point of view, and finally, even the "reality" of the cartoon itself are discarded, each for precise comic effect, thirteen years before the classic `Duck Amuck' did it.They even use music in unexpected ways. An often-missed gag revolves around the songs assigned to each character. For Porky, it's a peaceful "Moonlight Bay", an old song, even in the 1940's. Daffy sings the more current swing piece made popular by Cab Calloway, "Blues in the Night" (My Momma done told me, when I was in knee pants).Each song helps to define the characters, so you don't think it's unusual for them to be singing as they go about their business, but Porky accidentally starts off Daffy's song, reacts, then corrects himself. "My Momma done told me ... nghhh! ... We were sailing along". He looks directly at us to register his annoyance as he realizes his mistake, just in time for us to realize we've been set up.It's not only a hilarious cartoon; it's an example of animation stretching the limits of the medium as both an artistic and comedic exercise.
