On Wonder Studios, where the motto goes, “If it’s a good picture, it’s a Wonder,” the chaotic machine of filmmaking hums to life as producer I.M. Stupendous, Mel Blanc as Daffy Duck, bursts into the scene seeking an acting position. Right away, the moment leans into meta humor as Stupendous shoots back with a sharp, “No!” and then breaks the fourth wall with a quip that lands the joke squarely in the viewer’s lap: Y’know, that duck’s screwy! The exchange sets the tone for a day that will blur the lines between film set and audience, a playful jab at the very idea of movie-making.
