Plane Crazy - Mickey Mouse 1928 Both Mickey and Minnie are aerobatties.

(Considered sat-higher satire?
"Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody's face but their own" - Jonathan Swift )

wiki: The name Looney Tunes (1930's) is a variation on Silly Symphonies, the name of Walt Disney's concurrent series of music-based cartoon shorts.

From Oxford Dictionaries:
'looney tunes (informal) adj crazy; deranged n. crazy or deranged people.

Origin: 1980s: from Looney Tunes, the name of an animated cartoon series that began in the 1930s, featuring Bugs Bunny and other characters
'

The term has undergone pejoration, as with Mickey Mouse, when it's not being used in reference to the cartoons characters.

Though the animations can be repeatedly played/ played repeatedly still, if their name was novel, it would be back to the drawing board.
