When I was a kid, I remember seeing this one UK PIF for fireworks that had British comedian Jasper Carrott in it. I think it's from either 1996 or 1997 (don't remember)
But what I can remember is that it had Jasper on a black background with a microphone, asking a joke that goes like this:
"What do you call someone who doesn't read the instructions on fireworks? An ambulance."
Text fads in on the bottom saying (I think) "Take care with fireworks". That's all I can remember about this PIF.

Just found out there was a teaser trailer for Where the Wild Things Are (not to be confused with the 2009 film of the same name by Warner Bros.) in the comments section of a 35mm trailer of the 2003 The Cat in the Hat film: youtube.com/watch?v=EG87mT3aKkM&feature=share
From what I've heard, it was attached to The Grinch (starring Jim Carrey) in theaters, and was also wondering if anyone (who went to see it in theaters) in 2000 ever saw that exact trailer to a cancelled film.
It's funny all of these threads are popping up after I posted mine years ago and had no idea what this McDonald's "arcade machine" was. I'm actually currently waiting to hear back from someone from Kidzpace because they're gonna send me photos of some of their older machines that weren't around for long (I'm guessing they flopped for whatever reason). Was the Touch2Play the one where you could color in characters like a coloring book through a screen? A few people kept mentioning that one in my search, and I sorta remembered it too.
Kinda (I honestly don't remember), but then again, the only game I remember was Snap Shot (the one where it had this film reel with eyes, a mouth, arms and legs)

It was by Kidzpace and it had a lot of games on there (I’m talking about the one from the early 2000s) like Snap Shot (which is strangely the only one I remember the most). I remember when one McDonald's had it, not to mention, a hospital as well. (The latter also had a Simpsons Pinball Party game there)
Now I wish I had one of my own (again, from the early 2000s), unfortunately, they're pretty expensive

Basically all of the English versions of stuff from Cartoon Network Latin America (like from the Powerhouse and City eras respectively. I know that's more than one, but still )

Was wondering if Primetime had any promos for The Flintstones, Looney Tunes, and Tom and Jerry separately before they were removed from the block around 2002 or so.

Apparently, the person who uploaded that 2002 promo for the Super Soaker Sweepstakes Cartoon Network and Hasbro held (I think it was from an animator named Todd Wahnish. Though I could be wrong) is no longer on YouTube.
From what I mostly remember, it had Ed, Edd n Eddy on it, and was also a parody of 007 (I think) where the Eds try to avoid getting soaked (at least until the end of the promo). They were also in different colors too (like Edd being pink for example).
I remember the dialogue going like this (some lines may be incorrect but this is all I can remember):
Eddy: Alright boys, let's go for the grand prize!
Announcer: The coolest force in town...
Edd: Why do I have to be pink?
Announcer:...is not the Eds. It's the Super Soakers. Enter the Super Soaker Sweepstakes on CartoonNetwork.com for your chance to win the entire Super Soaker line. One cool cat gets all 12. 400 runners up will win a Super Soaker of their own. Enter the Super Soaker Sweepstakes on CartoonNetwork.com
Found the Purina Cat Chow one on this compilation of December 1989 commercials, it's on the minute 11:23:
As for the other ones, I found nothing more than energizer-less commercials of Hostess Twinkies, and I actually found a Diet Pepsi commercial starring Michael J. Fox, but no bunny on it. Maybe I'll try to dig a bit deeper later
did a quick search around for you and came up short but i did have a small lead www.youtube.com/watch?v=02evRY1msVc this isnt the promo you saw but it shows a powerpuff girls promo on boomerang "sponsered" by chuck e cheeses is this the same kind of thing you were referring to in original request?
if so then we ca narrow it down to rough timeframes and hopefully find it
No, I was not referring to that. The promo I'm talking about came out in 2002. (The same year Cartoon Network celebrated its 10th anniversary)
