Shot And Bothered

damfineJanuary 24, 2004

Rudy Larriva couldn't direct traffic let alone cartoons. The gags were lame at best and the pace crawled along at the speed of molasses on Pluto. He should have stuck to animating and left the directing to people who knew how to do it. Above all though, he NEVER should have been left in charge of Roadrunner cartoons thereby ruining what Jones had perfected.
