If we could give out an award for the film with the most interesting and kinda bizarre premise, it would go to Coyote vs. ACME. This movie will bring back cartoon legends Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner but it is not in the way that any of us could’ve predicted. Instead, our downtrodden Coyote is gearing up for a lawsuit against ACME, and we honestly cannot blame him. He’s been blown up and injured by ACME Corporation gadgets for decades now, and he still has yet to catch that darn Road Runner. Warner Bros. is now giving us more insight into Coyote vs. ACME with a new trailer.
It is beyond time that ACME goes down for their fraudulent products! This Coyote vs. ACME trailer is a nice blend of animated goodness, including a brief cameo by Bugs Bunny, and real-life characters. Here’s a synopsis for the film:
After decades of being blown to bits by bombs, demolished by dynamite, mangled by magnets, battered by boulders, trampled by trains, tricked by tunnels, sprung by springs, steamrolled by steamrollers, maligned by misfires, bedeviled by bungees, rattled by rockets, backstabbed by bat suits, rocked by rocket skates, upended by unicycles, quaked by quake pills, rubberized by rogue bands, and hurled headlong off every cliff in the Southwest, Wile E. Coyote (Genius) finally fights back. Teaming up with billboard accident lawyer Kevin Avery (Will Forte), he takes on slick corporate counsel Buddy Crane (John Cena) and ACME, Inc., the profit-obsessed conglomerate behind every one of the Coyote’s chaotic catastrophes.
We are rooting for Kevin and Coyote’s friendship, always. We will see who wins the legal battle when Coyote vs. ACME hits theaters on August 28.
