	Movies - The Great Piggy Bank Robbery

The Great Piggy Bank Robbery is a Warner Brothers Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon short released in 1946. It was directed by Robert Clampett and written by Warren Foster.

Synopsis

After knocking himself senseless while acting out a scene from his favorite Dick Tracy comic book, Daffy Duck imagines himself to be the famous detective Duck Twacy. The search for the perpetrators of a piggy-bank crime wave leads him to the gangster's not-so-secret hideout where faces all the dangerous criminals in town: Snake Eyes, 88 Teeth, Hammerhead, Pussycat Puss, Bat Man, Doubleheader, Pickle Puss, Pumpkinhead, Neon Noodle, Jukebox Jaw, Wolfman, Rubberhead, and a host of unnamed grotesques (the villains are obvious parodies of Dick Tracy's rogues gallery).

John Kricfalusi, the creator of Ren and Stimpy, named this as his favourite cartoon on the DVD commentary for Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 2.
