Tex Avery was trending on twitter earlier. While it was mostly people talking about that god awful DIC show, I want to take advantage of it and say how great his actual cartoons are and how much he really impact animation history. Northwest Hounded Police is a particular favorite

Bad Luck Blackie is personally my favorite cartoon and film PERIOD. The gags and timing of said gags were perfected to a tee and make me crack up every time I watch it.

His stuff at Walter Lantz is also extremely underappreciated. Legend of Rock-A-Bye Point is also one of my favorites and is a great example of Tex's timing. It's so good I once showed this to @NCLuke1024 and he was straight up laughing for over 45 minutes after it was over.

Another reason why Tex Avery was a genius was how he had the gall to mess with the audience. A particular gag in Magical Maestro had a hair string pop on screen only for Spike to pull it out himself. MGM even had to issue a note with the cartoon stating the hair wasn't real.

Ngl I like how the only reason people are mocking the DIC show is not because of any character or scene, but rather because of its very existence itself

I have no idea what's this DIC show you are talking about (not joking), but Tex is a huge influence and one of the most talented guys ever involved in the art of animation! And just... REALLY weird and funny!

That made me laugh

NHP will always be for me my favorite Tex Avery Cartoon and the best one he did because of the sheer hilarity and insanity and over exaggeration. This is the best and wildest take ever! for me!

I'm not a huge early cartoon buff but the bit where he gets his face changed and its just fucking droopy got me so hard

My favorite element of this cartoon is how OVER THE TOP the Wolf's screams get. I love when he splits up and his yell is choppy. That's genius comedy. As a kid, I'd recreate these scenes.
