Joaquin Castro @JoaquinCastrotx . Follow The @WBD tactic of scrapping fully made films for tax breaks is predatory and anti-competitive. As the Justice Department and @FTC revise their antitrust guidelines they should review this conduct. As someone remarked, it's like burning down a building for the insurance money.

0011 1000 101 Search... 59. 60. 53. 54. Despite the testimony, Congress dismisses the case Avery is finished. Buddy and Foghorn gleefully rub in their victory, and Wile springs his trap, setting off an elaborate Rube Goldberg machine that traps Foghorn in a birdcage not a real victory, but a bittersweet parting shot. Q LOGIN 55. 56. Avery returns to the law firm, expecting his career to be over, but finds the office swarmed with a huge crowd of cartoons who all wish to press charges of their own against Acme, inspired by the news coverage of Wile's case. A tip-off from Dr. Lorre leads Avery to a cache of video tapes from Project Sisyphus, showing proof of wilful negligence by Acme going back years. Dr. Lorre returns home to an emotional reunion with Granny, while Tweety secretly watches remorsefully. 57. 58. We skip forward a few months. Avery's law firm (with Paige now a full-time member of the team) is far from bankrupt, now bigger and better than ever, having become renowned for taking on Acme and other corporations in several cases, with federal charges against Acme expected to follow. Avery is happy, filled with a renewed sense of purpose. Wile returns to the desert, having a friendly reunion with the Road Runner before the chase begins once again. Add Comment SIGN UP - The movie ends with "where are they now" cards explaining that Foghorn and Buddy are ultimately sentenced and imprisoned in a low-security prison, spending most of their time playing golf. Marvin the Martian takes Foghorn's position as head of the Animated Products department. i Please, Sign In to add comment 61. 62. Wile E. Coyote continues to chase the Road Runner, but has never caught him yet... but maybe someday, he finally will. 63. Maybe tomorrow. 64. 65 Fade out. ins Tags: movie leak real coyote v. acme warner bros f--- david zaslav tax break
0011 1000 101 Search... LOGIN SIGN UP about how he was abandoned by Dr. Lorre before Acme took him in, and Avery reveals to him that it's not true - Dr. Lorre was kidnapped by Acme. 43. 44. Realising that Acme has been lying to him, Tweety pauses, giving them time to escape, but Avery crashes into roadworks and gets knocked out. When he wakes up, Wile is gone. Wile angrily tries to hitch a ride back to the de t, but sees Acme logos and products everywhere and realises that he can't give up now. 45. 46. Avery arrives at the Congressional hearing alone and in rough shape. Congressman Elmer Fudd, leader of the proceedings (yes, really) tries to dismiss the hearings due to Wile's absence, but Avery interrupts, giving another impassioned speech about Wile's tenacity, and how his refusal to give up and never stop hunting the Road Runner no matter what setbacks come his way has inspired him to turn his own life around. Wile, who has secretly entered the room, hears the whole speech, and quietly takes his seat next to Avery. 53. 47. 48. Recess is called. Buddy approaches Avery in the bathroom and compliments his speech. He gives him one last chance to drop the case, handing him a million-dollar check which Avery rips up, now intending to see this through to the end, win or lose. - 49. 50. After the recess, Avery cross-examines Foghorn Leghorn, asking him about Project Sisyphus and accusing him of knowingly releasing dangerous/faulty products and deliberately causing pain to millions of cartoons. Foghorn Leghorn rebukes him in a bitter speech, saying that Acme's technological developments and progress have all been for the greater good even if people got hurt, that cartoons are immortal anyway so it doesn't really matter if they get hurt because it's funny, who even cares about Wile E. Coyote anyway, etc etc. 51. 52. Avery brings out a surprise witness to prove that someone does care about Wile the Road Runner. Road Runner testifies that he has witnessed Wile's Acme-related injuries and suffering, and shows that he sees Wile as a friend, asking "Are you coming back?" - the Road Runner really does care about Wile and enjoys the chase in his own way. Wile, finally presented with the opportunity to catch the Road Runner, chooses not to, moved by his friendship.
0011 1000 101 Search... Q dangerous, painful tests on the cartoons. Cartoon characters and objects obey their own comical laws of physics, and Project Sisyphus was an initiative of studying/harnessing cartoon physics in order to improve Acme's human-side products at the expense of the cartoons, knowingly putting dangerous and faulty products on the market in order to secretly study the results. Wile is on Acme's record as a "high-usage user" every single one of his failures has been by design. LOGIN SIGN UP 33. 34. After discovering the truth about Project Sisyphus, Dr. Lorre was captured and imprisoned in a portable hole, which Acme covered up with a story about him eloping with his secretary. Decades later, he managed to escape by sheer luck, and is now in hiding on the outside. Before Dr. Lorre can tell them anything else, cars pull up, forcing Avery's crew to run. 35. 36. The next day in court, Avery asks the witness, Acme's head of PR, about Project Sisyphus. She panics and Buddy secretly has her ejected out of the courtroom. Infuriated by the cartoon antics, the judge declares a mistrial, and the case is dismissed. Avery, undeterred, gives a passionate speech outside the courtroom to the press, publicly denouncing Acme and Project Sisyphus. 37. 38. When Avery returns to his motel, a huge commotion is outside. Avery finds from Paige that his speech has become a new sensation, and that the case has been escalated to a Congressional inquiry, with Foghorn Leghorn due to testify. Wile E. Coyote wants to go back to his cave home, but Avery convinces him to stick with him and come to the Congress hearing, lying that the Road Runner will testify to get him to come. 39. 40. In their DC hotel room, Wile finds out that Avery was lying about the Road Runner testifying, and they get into a huge argument. Avery calls him out for using the case as a plan to catch the Road Runner, telling him he'll never succeed in catching him. Hurt, Wile storms out. Avery's partners call to tell him that the firm is officially bankrupt. Avery realises that Wile is gone, and goes after him after finding a note in his plans showing that Wile had come to consider him a friend. 41. 42. Wile roams the streets of DC and gets lead into a trap by Tweety, leading to a whole comic chase action sequence involving anvils, magnets, etc. Avery catches up to Wile, trying to apologise, but Wile doesn't want to hear it. Tweety tells them
