080 - The Breakdown: Duck Amuck Writers Get Animated

Chris and Mackenzie breakdown Duck Amuck! In our words, we once again English-major-the-crap-out-of something. What’s a story? What’s a plot? What even is animation, bro? How much can be taken away from Daffy Duck before he stops being Daffy Duck? What’s the origin of Angry Birds? How do you tell the difference between Daffy and Donald? Do animated characters have reveries? Have you always wanted to do a sea picture? Are you ready to breakdown, shakedown?
