Fun Road Runner and Coyote short from the great Chuck Jones. As always, the plot is standard "Wile E. Coyote chasing the Road Runner and failing" stuff. But the plots never drove these cartoons, the wonderful gags did. Here we have a number of funny bits, including the jackhammer and "The Art of Road Runner Trapping," an anomalous brick wall, ACME bumblebees, and variations on the classic ramp and catapult gags the series was known for. The animation is excellent with nice colors and fun action. The opening title sequence is a good example of how creative Chuck Jones could get with this series. The ending features one of the sign gags (you know, where the Road Runner or Coyote holds up a sign to say something to the audience). I'm not a big fan of those gags but when you see other reviewers talking about the cartoon's 'sweet' ending, that's what they're referring to. Anyway, it's a funny short but not one of my favorites. You can't go wrong with any Road Runner and Coyote cartoon by Chuck Jones, though, so give it a shot and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
It is amazing to make something funny that uses the same formula over and over again. 'Zoom and Bored' is another cartoon from the Road Runner vs. Coyote series and again most of the predictable gags work. The Coyote, here Famishus Vulgaris, tries to catch the Road Runner, here Birdibus Zippibus, with a harpoon gun, some bees and a brick wall. Especially the moments involving the brick wall are great and very funny.
only for the brick wall sequence I would recommend this cartoon. Fortunately other things are nice too. The sequence with the bees is pretty funny as well. Other sequences at least made me smile. Director Chuck Jones has created another fine cartoon that is quite entertaining.

The eleventh pairing of Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner has the ever-determined coyote using the same unreliable methods against the ever-elusive bird, who seems a bit sadistic in this one. The bee gags is funny and even the now predictable gags still bought a smile to my face. And I, as always with these cartoons, found it highly enjoyable, but perhaps I'm a bit biased as Wile E. Coyote is one of my absolute favorite cartoon personalities of all time. This animated short can be seen on Disc 2 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 2. This cartoon also has an optional music only track.

Chuck Jones and his team always managed to find new and original ways of incorporating the titles into Road Runner shorts without giving the impression of the action slowing down. An extra element of speed is added by the simple yet dynamic backgrounds. One of the highlights of "Zoom and Bored" is a very surreal sequence in which While E. Coyote spies on his own behind from around the corner of a brick wall of his own design.
At this time in there career as a double act, Road Runner seemed to take an almost sadistic pleasure in pointing out to W. E. Coyote whenever he ran out of ground. R.R. also repeatedly startles W. E. by running up from behind and beeping in his ear. The strain starts to show on Wile E., who at one point even breaks character and speaks, albeit no more than yelps of pain.
The lesson learned from "Zoom and Bored" is to never try out your new Acme products in the vicinity of the highway and/or railroad!

Wile E. Coyote (Famishus Vulgarus) disappears literally in a cloud of dust that begins on the road and winds up hundreds of feet in the air as the Road Runner (Birdibus Zippibus) wins again in the opening scene of this cartoon.
Wile goes back "to the books," so to speak for his next attempt, reading "The Art Of Road Runner Trapping." According to the book, there are four steps: 1 - Dig hole in the road; 2 - Camouflage hole; 3 - Wait patiently and 4 - Eat Road Runner. Our coyote has problems with step one in a funny scene when he is unable to control the jackhammer in trying to dig a hole in the road. So much for that plan.
After that, it's brick, roadblocks, two birdseed traps, a long, long chute, a catapult, and a harpoon gun. The latter was the best "stunt" in the cartoon because it lasted a lot longer and very clever. I wish they draw out more of these ploys, because they always better than just the quick 10-second familiar-looking sight gags.
I thought the artwork was better than average in this episode, which was part of Volume Two Of The Looney Tunes Golden Collection.

- TriviaThis short was created by the Warner animation team right after finishing "What's Opera, Doc?" That short took seven weeks to finish, but Warner allotted only 5 weeks to create any cartoon short. To cover up for it, Chuck Jones had the animation team doctor their time cards to state they were working on this short, when they were actually finishing up "What's Opera, Doc?". The team knew that Road Runner/Wile E. Coyote shorts were so by-the-numbers they could easily finish up the short in three weeks.
- ErroresWile E. is chasing the Road Runner through its contrail/dust cloud again. The only thing one can see are his ears sticking out above the cloud and he stops. Road Runner comes back, faces him, and the only thing one can see of him is his tail sticking up and out of the cloud. Road Runner beeps at Coyote and both stick their heads up and out of the cloud. Suddenly, Coyote realizes he is not standing on solid ground. He gets a pained look on his face and sticks his foot out and below the cloud in search of the ground. But at this point he is not looking down. Yet Road Runner does look down as Coyote's foot searches for the ground. So, if no one can see their feet, if Road Runner can not see their feet, then what is Road Runner looking at, why is Road Runner looking down? It is only after Road Runner looks down that Coyote looks down in search of solid ground, followed by the disappearing of the cloud (and revealing Road Runner at the edge of a cliff while Coyote is suspended in midair). Coyote then falls to the canyon floor and Road Runner then beeps and runs away. By having the Road Runner look down into the cloud, before either can see there is no ground below Coyote is putting the proverbial cart before the horse. Road Runner would have had no reason to look down until Coyote looked down, because neither would have know of Coyote's predicament until the cloud disappeared.
