Toon Trial: Wile E. Coyote Goes Legal Against Acme

TL;DR Summary
After a three-year delay and a tax-write-off shelving, Coyote vs. Acme hits theaters as a Looney Tunes legal satire from Dave Green. Wile E. Coyote enlists Will Forte’s earnest lawyer and Lana Condor to sue Acme, delivering a warm, Roger Rabbit–style homage with plenty of cameos, a Road Runner on the stand, and a bittersweet ending about Toon friendship. It opened around $16 million, with praise for its humor and heart, though critics note it could have pushed bolder themes and benefited from stronger marketing by Warner Bros.
