Hard Times for Daffy II: DAFFY'S REVENGE!

NOTE: This is a sequel to my previous "Hard Times for Daffy" story. I do not own the Looney Tunes franchise, or the other WB animation characters or anything related to Hanna-Barbera or Cartoon Network. That is all copyrighted by Warner Bros. "Little Man" is a trademark and copyrighted by Sony and the Wayan Brothers.

Chapter One: A New Hope

Daffy was sipping coffee one morning. He was living with his old friend Wile E. Coyote. Bugs Bunny had also moved in with them. Bugs Bunny was eating some carrots, and Wile E. was reading a newspaper. "You know," he said to his friends. "I'm surprised no one did anything about that 'Little Man' movie that came out last summer."

"Yeah!" Bugs was angered. "Dat film was a complete rip-off of MY masterpiece, 'Baby Buggy Bunny!' Dem Wayan brothers didn't even call me or thank me or anything like that! I think I know how to take care of that!" Bugs got out a cell phone and dialed. "Hello? Baby Face Finster? Yes. I want you to go find da Wayans and sue them! Good. Thanks." Then he hung up. "It's all settled," he told his pals. "Baby Face Finster is going to sue da Wayan brothers for their movie!"

Daffy smiled. "Great going, pal! Now we're getting somewhere!" he told Bugs. Then he said, "Our 'Bah, Humduck' movie is only nominated for one Annie this year… 'Best Music.'"

Wile E. Coyote sighed and said, "I am pretty sure it is going to lose to 'Cars.' The Pixar films are always highly popular, even if they don't make the most box-office money than the other movies do. They are shoe-ins for winning."

Bugs agreed. "I heard the soundtrack to 'Cars.' Typical Pixar stuff. Who cares about dat?"

"The soundtrack for 'Bah, Humduck' wasn't that great, either," Wile E. added. "Why, Bill Lava's music was better than that!"

Bugs Bunny shuddered and said, "Don't say that name around me!"

The coyote said, "Sorry. But I also hope that Sander Schwartz leaves soon. Warner Bros. Animation hasn't been the same with him in charge."

"I agree," Daffy said, and then added, "It seems that I am getting more attention in these new Looney Tunes projects. Why, in 'Bah, Humduck,' you had a minor role! Speaking of 'Bah, Humduck,' I'm GLAD it wasn't released theatrically! It would've BOMBED, and we'd be out on the streets! Can you guess how bad that would be?" He laughed.

"Hey! You were out on the streets several months ago, remember?" Wile E. told Daffy angrily.

Daffy then said sorrowfully, "Oh, right. Sorry. But the popularity of the DVD still isn't enough to win me back my own house."

"Face it," Wile E. Coyote said, "Looney Tunes will never be the same. The Cartoon Network boss hates us, Sander Schwartz treats us like junk and has changed the powerhouse of old Termite Terrace, and we are no longer on TV or in theaters."

"We have been eclipsed in popularity by da new Cartoon Network stars, like Dexter and Ed, Edd and Eddy, as well as the Teen Titans," Bugs added. "We… we've been canceled!"

"I know," Daffy sadly said. "But we can still try and attempt to appeal to the public. We'll have to think of ways…"

Bugs got an idea. "We could tell them about 'Baby Buggy Bunny' and its rip-off movie, 'Little Man!'"

Then the coyote added, "And compare the comedy of the old cartoons with the new ones of today."

"Those are all good ideas," Daffy told his friends. "But we need MORE good ideas. We have to THINK…"
