Coyote vs. Acme Trailer

I’ve long thought Wile E. Coyote should sue ACME for all the failed products he’s bought from them, so it’s great to see he’s getting his long-delayed day in court in the long-delayed Coyote vs. Acme. I’m getting big Who Framed Roger Rabbit? vibes from the mix of live action and animation. Lots of laughs in the trailer (Daffy Duck: “Ac-me? Ac-you!”), but I chortled the most at the meta-dig at Warner Bros. as being a “wholly owned subsidiary of ACME Corporation,” which is “releasing this film for accounting purposes only” (see also this 15-second teaser). The movie’s Wikipedia entry provides context if you aren’t up on the real-world corporate shenanigans that led us here.
