About this product

Product Information

The illustrated classic, complete with a new preface by Matt Groening. Winner of three Academy Awards and numerous other prizes for his animated films, Chuck Jones is the director of scores of famous Warner Bros. cartoons and the creator of such memorable characters as the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote, Pepé Le Pew, and Marvin Martian. In this beguiling memoir, Chuck Jones evokes the golden years of life at "Termite Terrace," the Warner Bros. studio in which he and his now-famous fellow animators conceived the cartoons that delighted millions of moviegoers throughout the world and entertain new generations of fans on television. Not a mere history, Chuck Amuck captures the antic spirit that created classic cartoons-such as Duck Dodgers in the 241/2 Century, One Froggy Evening, Duck Amuck, and What's Opera, Doc?-with some of the wittiest insights into the art of comedy since Mark Twain.

Reviews
"With dash, wit and innocence-and a few well-aimed custard pies-Chuck Jones . . . has written an anarchic autobiography." Mark Goodman, The New York Times Book Review "Chuck Jones's work remains, like all good fables, and only the best art, both timeless and universal." Peter Bogdanovich

  • Inside the mind of Chuck Jones, great catoonist :-)

    I always thought there are two types of people in this world: Those who like Bugs Bunny and others who are into Mickey Mouse. Like the theory of Rolling Stones and the Beatles--you like both but you sway to one than the other...LOL Seriously though, anybody who grew up with the saturday morning delight of Bugs, Daffy, Wile E. Coyote, and etc. would love this book that explores the life of Chuck Jones who is no longer with us. The book features drawings, a walk-through of the cartoon DUCK DODGERS IN THE 24th (1/2) CENTURY and a foreward by Steven Spielburg... But don't take my word for it, pick it up and experience it yourself--you can't go wrong :-)

  • A look back at Warner Bros Best

    This is great information about C.J. and the history behind the many great characters he produced. Not much information on the craft of animation. It is a fun look at the man who created Buggs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Roadrunner, etc.
