Buccaneer Bunny

The Comedy here is top-notch for starters, I was laughing my eyes out at first watch when I was a kid. One of the best Bugs bunny Disguises is present here, and some of the best visual comedy in a sam cartoon. It's not perfect, but will entertain the viewer massively. Pirates of the Caribbean be Damned! The Explosive comedy is some of the most over the top in a Looney tunes short, and is delightful to watch when those moments to take a moment to shine.

9/10.

Bugs is resting on a tropical island when fearsome pirate Redbeard comes along to bury his treasure. Realising that Bugs now knows where he has hidden the treasure, Redbeard decides to kill bugs to keep it a secret leading to a chase on board his own ship.

Despite placing traditional cowboy Sam in the role of a pirate without actually changing his accent or dress, this cartoon works out quite enjoyable. My initial worries about the character worked out and Sam actually fitted into the role pretty well. The plot is basically a big chase with Bugs doing his usual smart-alecky stuff and outsmarting his foil.

Bugs is as good as always and I enjoyed his antics, Sam is better than I thought he would be, the only downside being the pirate dialogue they occasionally put in his mouth. The two work well together and the material is funny.

Overall this is an enjoyable short that contains plenty of nice jokes (including a spoof of Charles Laughton) and funny action with imagination.

Before I first watched this Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam episode, I already expected some of the jokes, because I had watched the remake, "Captain Hareblower". The remake is quite funny and very slapsticky, but not quite as good as "Buccaneer Bunny" which includes slightly better jokes among the slapstick and farce.

Anyhow, in this episode, Yosemite Sam, starring, as he phrases it, "The best buccaneer on the Spanish Main", is digging a hole to bury a trunk-full of treasure. However, it turns out he has dug into the burrow/warren of Bugs Bunny, who, from another supply of treasure buried before, is adorned in expensive earrings, necklaces and bracelets: in other words, jewellery. The buccaneer is not pleased with having this bunny before him, especially as Bugs tells him he will know where Sam will bury his treasure. Cartoon chaos ensues...

I like this episode because of the animation and the jokes in it, even some of the slapstick ones are quite funny and good to watch. Bugs Bunny is as good as he usually is, tricking Yosemite Sam a great deal of times.

I recommend this episode to people who like/ do not mind cartoon slapstick, Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. Enjoy "Buccaneer Bunny"! :-)

Hilarious cartoon directed by Friz Freleng, the best Looney Tunes director next to Chuck Jones. This short is somewhat inspired by the Three Stooges and the gimmicks work great. It's funny to see Sam getting blown up the cannon every three seconds.

Terrific Bugs Bunny cartoon, directed by Friz Freleng, with Yosemite Sam as the cutest pirate you're likely to ever see. While burying his treasure on the beach, Sam disturbs Bugs in his rabbit hole. What follows is Bugs and Sam fighting it out on the high seas in hilarious fashion. It's a wonderful short with the legendary Mel Blanc having a blast doing the voices of Bugs and Sam. He even gets to do a Charles Laughton impersonation. The animation is beautiful with rich colors and well-drawn characters and backgrounds. The music is energetic and fun. It's a classic, plain and simple. Anybody who enjoys Bugs and Yosemite Sam will get a kick out of this one.
