Rabbit Seasoning

“I would just love a duck dinner.”

#2 of the hunting trilogy, I love this cartoon simply for its wonderful wordplay. Bugs can get Daffy to shoot himself. The story is simple Elmer is out hunting rabbits because its rabbit season. (or is it?) Daffy leads him to Bugs and hilarity ensues. You really have to watch this one to fully appreciate it words don’t do it justice.

Baseball Bugs

“I’m only 93 and a half years old”

Its a baseball game and its pretty one sided. The Teatotelers are against the Gas House Gorillas and are being pwned. Spectator Bugs yells that he could beat the Gorillas all by himself and they take him up on the challenge. Bugs proves to be very good at this and is able to win the game.(With a little help from the statue of liberty) This was the first Looney tune I watched when I started to become a regular. It must have been fate as I find this to be one of the best Bugs Bunny shorts ever. There are many great gags. Like the literal bat boy, the hit that’s so hard it sends a Gorilla to his grave, or Miss Liberty saying the immortal words “That’s what the man said, you heard what he said, he said that!”
