Hare Do

Elmer Fudd using his metal rabbit detector finds and chases Bugs Bunny out of the wood and into a crowded theater. (Rabbits pay less for theater tickets by the way, so dress up like one the next time you go to the movies, kids) Bugs using his wit constantly gets the befuddled hunter ejected from the theater as well as annoys the patrons by his constant moving around. An all around funny short. It may not be a classic, but stick with it, trust me the ending is truly killer. This animated short can be found on Disk 1 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 3.

My Grade: A

Elmer Fudd uses his Army surplus wabbit detector. He tracks Bugs Bunny off a cliff and to his home. Bugs escapes and takes a car to the movies. It is a long way up to his seat in the top balcony. He is followed closely by Elmer Fudd.

This is a classic Bugs Bunny vs Elmer Fudd cartoon. They are the perfect foils for each other. There is a bit of transition as they move from the forest to a theater. I guess that it's a little awkward to be hunting in a theater. So it does need to go from the woods to the city. Ultimately, I am sold by the characters climbing up the stairs in the dark. That has always been hilarious to me.

This is a funny animated classic with Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd. Nothing spectacular, but quite enjoyable, fun and entertaining. It's one of those old-fashioned animated shorts with good artwork, classic humor, charm and full of amusement.

Bugs Bunny is a very smart rabbit. This time he's chased by Elmer Fudd, who wants to catch him. They go through several places (forests, the city, cinemas and even a circus at the end). Elmer Fudd, however, is so stupid that you have to feel sorry for him. His tries to catch the rabbit are always unsuccessful - he's always outsmarted by that rabbit and that's where all the fun is. His stupidity even makes him end up in a lion's mouth.

Bugs Bunny is voiced by one of Disney's most legendary artists: Mel Blanc, a guy with an extraordinary talent for doing voices and sounds, like few people ever had. His most famous line is one that everybody knows by heart: «Hey, what's up, Doc?».

Elmer Fudd's most famous lines in this are "wabbit" instead of "rabbit" and "on the contwawy" instead of "on the contrary".

I will admit when this cartoon started, I wasn't sure what significance the title had. All the same, this cartoon is one of my personal favourite Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd cartoons. The animation is great as always(I loved the design of the theatre especially), the music is wonderful and Mel Blanc's characterisations of both Bugs and Usher are spot on, and Arthur Q Bryan also does an exemplary job as Elmer. And the two characters are priceless as per usual.

While the script is great and like dynamite, the visual jokes were what made this cartoon for me. The repeated gags of Elmer getting thrown out of the theatre after Bugs exclaims "this man is annoying me" and the audience rushing madly to and from the auditorium with Elmer on the floor trying to get up the whole time were impeccably timed. But my favourite was the ending, I sure wasn't expecting that, and my jove it was very very funny. Another gag was "Do you have a message for Mr Fudd?" "SPLAT!" All in all, I love this cartoon. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This is pretty good. As usual, Elmer is after that "cwazy wabbit." Elmer chases Bugs out of the woods into a movie theater. What transpires is one blitz after another. Being trampled by patrons. Being grabbed by head ushers. Being put on a unicycle, blindfolded. But he never loses his spirit. Even though he never wins, we should all be a bit like Elmer.
