Taz: Quest for Burger (2023 Video)
9/10
Different, but AWESOME!!!

This is one of the Tough Guy vs Kid movies like Kindergarten Cop, with Taz as the tough guy. Taz and Quinn bicker as they go on their journey together. There's also a hilarious Crocodile character.

Instead of taking a very Looney Tunes concept and stretching it to feature length, like many movies featuring SNL alumnus, (Wayne's World, Night at the Roxbury, Austin Powers), this is a movie first, that is sprinkled with Looney Tunes stuff.

It takes a while for Taz to find his mojo and do his whirlwind spin. There's also a bit where a character spouts a couple Looney Tunes catch phrases.

Taz merch blew up in the late 80s/early 90s and so Taz was given his own TV show, that feels a lot like other 90s TV shows. Taz was given a bunch of supporting characters, including two parents and siblings. None of them show up in this movie. Taz is mentioned to have parents, but he's estranged from them as they left. (But there's never really been canon with Looney Tunes.)

This movies is awesome and heartwarming. It's farther away from standard Looney Tunes than King Tweety, but I liked it more than King Tweety, which I also liked.
