== Boo-ryshnikov is a giant chicken. ==
A chicken I tell you! A giant chicken!
* How dare you insult the great Boo-ryshnikov!
** You said the same thing about Davy Omelette!
* You have just won the Internet.
Line 10:
* Then the writers must be prophets. Someone wrote contemporary 1990s references existed in the 1930s.
** Come on, [[Time Lord/WMG|don't tempt them]]...
*** Ooh, so the water tower would be their-* WHACK!*
*** But we all know Wakko is a-*BANG*
* Always thought [[Animaniacs]] were a parody of [[Disney Animated Canon|"Steamboat Willie"...]]
Line 28:
 
== Trips to the past are actually just hypnosis sessions with the Doc designed to make the Warners experience their past lives ==
Hey, they had animation for awhile. Heck, how do we know they didn't jump off of the cave walls?
 
== Animaniacs, [[Tiny Toon Adventures]] and [[Freakazoid!]]! are incarnations of the three [[Looney Tunes]] archetypes ==
 
[[Tiny Toon Adventures]] is normal kids' programming (compared to the other two) so it's the [[Every Man]] archetype. [[Animaniacs]] is chaotic but good-natured, so they're [[Karmic Trickster|The Bugs Bunny]]. [[Freakazoid!]]! is the most random of the three of them, so it's the [[Screwy Squirrel]].
 
== After they were captured in the final clip of the last episode, the Warners were put back in the water tower, with a new lock. ==
Line 47:
* Wow. That's... that's really depressing. Erm... good job?
* They may age as a cartoon character would rather than a regular being.
* How do you get the idea Yakko is developmentally disabled with his wit?
** He isn't. Dr. Scratchandsniff simply refuses to acknowledge that he could be different from his brother.
* Fifty years locked in isolation in a water tower would developmentally disable anyone.
Line 54:
== The Warners are [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]]. ==
 
They were drawn into this reality by the summonings of a human mind. [[Mad God|They have the power to warp reality on a whim and toy with humanity for their amusement.]] [[Go Mad Fromfrom the Revelation|They drive anyone who spends time in their company insane.]] No one can discern their actual species because [[A Form You Are Comfortable With|the shapes they assume]] are merely the projections of the mind of the cartoonist who first glimpsed them, trying to make sense of the horrors he witnessed.
 
Fearing the chaos and ruin they bring about, they were [[And I Must Scream|locked away in a tower for generations, gradually forgotten,]] [[Sealed Evil in a Can|until one day..]]
Line 62:
== Slappy Squirrel and Screwy Squirrel once had a thing together. ==
 
They were going out for a while in the 1940's, but they split up after Screwy was finally permanently institutionalized. No one else was ever good enough for Slappy, sadly.
* Screwy ''dies'' in his final cartoon. Perhaps that had something to do with their split up. The resulting grief made Slappy cranky and bitter.
 
Line 69:
 
== The Warners are cats like Rita is. ==
Even though they look [[Cartoon Creature|much more ambiguous]] than Rita, the Warners have a muzzle length, nose color, tail, and paws [[Informed Attribute|with retractable claws]] like that of a cat. Even their ears [[Furry Ear Dissonance|look like they can pass for overly stylized cat ears]].
 
== In the Animaniacs universe, a cartoon's age is proportionate to experience rather than time. ==
Line 125:
 
== Skippy is a young [[Conkers Bad Fur Day|Conker]]. ==
Think of it, They look similar if you compare Skippy with young Conker from [[Diddy Kong Racing|Diddy Kong Racing.]] He had his adventures (Conker's Pocket Tales) in a nearby friends house (Berri, soon to be his girlfriend after he turned 13).
 
Once the show was cancelled, 9 or 10 years later, he was busted by doing something illegal (perhaps by doing something the censors wouldn't allow, like something majorly bad) He went to rock bottom, changed his name, started drinking and smoking, and started disobeying his parents words, and followed Slappy's words of wisdom, except in a more, exaggerated way because he didn't look into it much.
 
His attitude is the result of having [[Former Child Star|Former Child Star Syndrome.]] One day he had a hangover so bad, he ended up in a field, and that's how the [[Where It All Began|events of Conker's Bad Fur Day starts.]]
 
== The Warners aren't mean, they're just poorly-socialized. ==
Think about it: Unlike Slappy, who goes about everything with an air of ornery malevolence, the Warners are only ever playful, unless they're playing [[Karmic Trickster]]. So they don't ''mean'' to hurt anybody in the shorts like "Schnitzelbank" and "The Kid In The Lid," they just don't understand, in all of their merry-making, that they're going to far.
 
And let's face it, if you were locked in a water tower for 60 years and 80% of your life with only your two siblings for company, you'd probably have trouble playing with others, too.
Line 146:
(2) The success of ''[[Super 8]]'' might motivate Spielberg to continue looking at his older stuff for ideas.
 
(3) The Warners already have an "attitude" and make pop-culture references--just like in a Dreamworks movie, only they were already like that so it's not a sell-out.
 
(4) If you're even on this page, you know the fanbase is still thriving. And most of them would be old enough to bring ''their'' kids to see it!
