It took a long time for Coyote vs. ACME to make it to theaters, and it wasn’t because it missed a left turn in Albuquerque. Coyote vs. ACME began as a comedic article in a 1990 issue of The New Yorker by writer Ian Frazier. As Bauza told Polygon back in January, Coyote vs. ACME is half legal drama, half buddy comedy. The first thing to love about Coyote vs. ACME is that it's funny — like, really funny. Throughout the winding road Coyote vs. ACME has taken, Wile E. Coyote seemed to have been beaten up and abused in much the same way he was in those classic shorts.
