I have to say that the name of this short film is not really familiar to me, but the characters certainly are. Over 65 years ago, this was the birth of Road Runner and Coyote. The trio behind this are Chuck Jones, Michael Maltese and Mel Blanc, who worked on uncountable other Warner Bros. films together. This cartoon here runs also for 7 minutes like all these others. And many more Roadrunner vs. Coyote short films should follow, even several ones in the 21st century. The contents are basically always the same, but it's still funny. Coyote uses all kinds of technical gadgets, sometimes more complicated, sometimes less, to catch Roadrunner and have him for dinner. One the plate, that is. But Roadrunner is simply too smart and too fast for his opponent. In this very first film here, Coyote uses simple stuff like paint or boomerangs, but it's equally useless just like his giant rocket or Superman costume. This cartoon was fun to watch. I would not call it great by any means, but it's certainly the watch and the "meep meep" is simply legendary by now. Recommended.
