“If Violet’s marrying anybody, it’s gonna be me!”
This isn’t really a Looney Tune. So why am I talking about it? Well, it was made by the W.B. and it has voices and sound effects from the Looney Tunes in it. Besides, I think it’s a stellar bit of work. The entire cast is animals!
In a town, there is a monkey named Violet and she is going to marry another monkey named Fred. (Bea Bennederet and Mel Blanc, respectively) Another monkey named Harvey is angry as he wishes to marry her as well. (While he is getting his shoes shined, there’s a black-faced monkey. Is it still racist if they do it?)
Harvey decides to kidnap her and its up to Fred to rescue his fiance. Harvey stuffs her in a bag and takes off with Fred following on a goat. The chase ends up on a hot air balloon where the guys fight, eventually leaving Fred as the victor. Fred and Violet go get married and I guess they are really happy because they fly away. (?)
Personal Rating: 3 (The story is basic, but the animals were really well trained. Humanely, I hope)
