Porky Pig was created by director Friz Freleng and developed and animated by Bob Clampett. The head of Warner Bros. Studios, Leon Schlesinger, suggested to Freleng that he create a cartoon version of Our Gang films and that’s where the inspiration for Porky first began.

The wildly propulsive adventure involves Daffy and Porky at the local bubble gum factory where they discover a secret alien mind control plot.

“The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie” surprised me. I expected yet another big screen misuse of the animated Warner Bros. characters I’ve loved since I was a kid. Outside of 2003′s “Looney Tunes: Back in Action,” and 1988′s “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” movies featuring Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig have not done them justice.
