Fastest with the Mostest

Fastest with the Mostest is a 1960 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Chuck Jones. The short was released on January 19, 1960, and stars Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner.

The title is a reference to the epigram "Git thar fustest with the mostest", often erroneously attributed to Nathan Bedford Forrest.

Plot

In a series of comedic encounters, Wile E. Coyote (scientifically denoted as "Carnivorous-Slobbius") repeatedly attempts to capture the elusive Road Runner (identified as "Velocitus-Incalcublii").

His strategies include detonating a firework to ensnare Road Runner, only to be thwarted by its premature explosion, resulting in Coyote's fall off a cliff.

Another endeavor involves a hot air balloon and a bomb, with Coyote inadvertently inflating himself and experiencing a chaotic journey before defusing the bomb, which ultimately explodes regardless.

Further attempts entail luring Road Runner with tranquilized bird seed, leading to Coyote's entanglement in a failed trap.

Lastly, Coyote's detour sign scheme backfires, causing him to endure various mishaps, including a fall, an encounter with cutlery, and a tumultuous descent through pipes.
