Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers

This is a unfunny spoof of the far superior 1956 film "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". The makers of this short seem to be confused about the difference between violence and hilarity. Sure, senseless violence can be funny, but here it is tedious and serves only as a reminder of how it has been done better so many times before.

"Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers" is not a terrible toon; it just doesn't live up to previous toons and the film it spoofs. For an hilarious spoof, watch "Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2th Century".

Hey "oscaralbert --any words you don't understand are probably Yiddish! Which "nudnik" definitely is! It means an annoying person, someone who persistently bothers you, with questions and such. So the cartoon appears to be a swipe at someone or something they found annoying.

"Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers" is a funny parody of "Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers." I've only seen the classic 1956 version of the latter, but that didn't keep me from enjoying this Looney mini-movie.

Like the film it parodies, "Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers" is about a guy against alien copycats. In both films, the main character (in this case, Bugs Bunny) knows that his life is relatively routine (outsmart Elmer Fudd, cross Yosemite Sam, etc.) But one day, strange pods pop up out of nowhere, and the next day the same people have different attitudes; paler, but friendlier (and in this case, animated differently.) In a thrilling and slightly creepy climax, Bugs has to fight off his copy and bring back his original friends.

Bugs has his great one-liners, ("There's one for Ripley's...") but my favorite part is how extravagantly animated the Daffy replacement is. At one point, he's as jerky as Rocky and Bullwinkle, and the next minute his mouth is moving too smoothly for comfort.

This was a hilarious and excellent parody of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. This cartoon used classic routines from old Bugs Bunny cartoons, Elmer Fudd positioned outside the rabbit hole, Yosemite Sam stepping over the line and the cliff, and of course the old classic 'Rabbit season, Duck season' routine with Daffy Duck. It was genius to make the pod versions badly drawn on purpose. You got to love it.

I agree with you, Prime. This was one of the funniest new Bugs Bunny cartoons. I've seen it on the cartoon network. Bugs tries to get rid of the carrots which are really "badly drawn" Warner Bros. characters, or else he will be the next victim. It's highly recommended.
