Chuck Jone's rules for writing the Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote

An absolute advanced class in writing.

Full text follows in the thread below, converted to Sentence Case for readability.

#Writing #Screenwriting #ChuckJones #Cartoons #RoadRunner #WileECoyote

Rule 1
The Road Runner cannot harm the coyote except by going “beep-beep”.

Rule 2
No outside force can harm the coyote—only his own ineptitude or the failure of the Acme products.

Rule 3
The Coyote could stop anytime—if he were not a fanatic (repeat: “a fanatic is one who redoubles his effort when he has forgotten his aim.” – George Santayana)

Rule 4
No dialogue ever, except “beep-beep”.

Rule 5
The Road Runner must stay on the road—otherwise logically, he would not be called a road runner.

Rule 6
All action must be confined to the natural environment of the two characters—the Southwest American desert.

Rule 7
All materials, tools, weapons, or mechanical conveniences must be obtained from the Acme corporation.

Rule 8
Whenever possible,
make gravity the coyote’s greatest enemy.

Rule 9
The coyote is always more humiliated
than harmed by his failures
