Wile E. Coyote Is Finally Getting His Own Movie So The Road Runner Better Watch Out

Warner Bros.

Everyone has watched Bugs Bunny and his buddies get up to all kinds of crazy hijinks, and we all had our favorite characters.

Some people really loved watching Sylvester fail to catch Tweety, while others preferred to watch Bugs completely humiliate Elmer Fudd.

For me, Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner were always one of my favorite parts of the entire show.

If you ever need a lesson on persistence, Wile was your guy. No matter how badly he failed, how many cliffs he fell off of, or mountains he ran into, that dedicated and hungry fellow never gave up.

Warner Bros.

Sure, he was technically trying to eat the Road Runner, but I mean, he's a coyote, it's what they do.

So the Road Runner would constantly leave traps for him, and it's all well and good because it's a cartoon and no matter how many explosives were used, no matter how far he fell, or how big of a boulder squished him, Wile E. would get right back up again and order something new from his Acme catalog.

Warner Bros.

Up until now, Wile E. Coyote has always been a background character, usually just in the movies for a brief moment. But now, he's finally getting his chance to shine!

Wile E. Coyote is getting his own animated movie, and it's called Coyote Vs. Acme.

Warner Bros.

Obviously, Wile E. has a long history with Acme, so maybe he finally will file a complaint with them over all the faulty products they've been selling him for all these years.

The movie will be produced by Chris McKay, who made his directorial debut with last year's hit movie Lego Batman, so he definitely knows what goes into a hit cartoon.

Warner Bros.

The movie is still in early production, but hopefully we will find out more about it soon!

A Behind-The-Scenes Look At The New Aladdin Is Here And At Least One Of Our Wishes Was Granted

We've been waiting patiently, okay mostly patiently, since Disney announced that Aladdin was being remade. The cartoon remains one of the most iconic movies of all time, and the fact that they were going to try and bring it to life with real humans instead of the animated versions was kind of concerning. We saw the first trailer a while ago, but the only character we actually saw up close was Aladdin himself. We didn't see how the Genie looked, or Jasmine, or any of the other characters. But now, Entertainment Weekly has given us all the first look at

Tim Allen Reveals The Original Plan For 'The Santa Clause' Was Way Too Dark For Disney

We've all seen The Santa Clause at least a dozen times, right? It's a Christmas classic and ever since it was released, it has become a staple in our holiday movie schedule. There's something about the movie that manages to keep that Christmas feeling without being way too over the top or corny. I mean, sure, Tim Allen literally becomes Santa, but somehow it all feels like that's totally plausible. The sequels may not have the same realistic feeling, but the original remains iconic. However, Allen just revealed that the original plan for the movie was a lot darker than
